And for those that don't have a Valentine this year, I'll be your Valentine. (Durhurhur.) No really, I still wish you a Happy one and try not to feel snoobed up. Your loved one is somewhere out there, and after all, Valentines Day is not the only day to be celebrating love. If your in love, everyday should be a celebration feeled with warm (hot, ohbby) love.
I have a valentine this year, tahahah. His name is Tyler and me and him are attached by the spine, I sware. Me and him will be celebrating the day with some cute lovey-dovey movies and Hetalia, ofc!

Which makes me question something. If he's cosplaying Alfred F. Jones and I'm cosplaying Francis Bonnefoy... does that make a AmericaxFrance pairing between us? Durhurhur. Ohwell. I'm still happy. C:
