Hws Romano - Blog Posts
here you go ✌️✌️ hope you enjoy it
Hi guys, huge request. Can anyone of you please hypnotize themselves into drawing Romano blowing a kiss with a red face tsundere style. I need it more than oxygen, it can also be half assed. I swear to god I will put that shit in my wallet and frame it in my room.
Giug out
y’all, I love Bésame Mucho, and I love this.
in the garden 🍅 besame mucho
I drew this for Pride Month weeks ago but I wanted to post this here to say JUST a thing:
You see how Grandpa Rome has two curls?
Well, headcanon- he has diphallia
Thanks for reading, you can keep scrolling
I would like to add my contribution with Romano: Tailor
It's kind of funny, because in general human AUs I have a pretty good idea of what most of the Germanics would likely work with.
Prussia & Germany: Car mechanics. (To absolutely no one's surprise). 😂 xD Austria: Strict private music teacher (perhaps for adults? Not sure he'd have the patience for young children messing around). Switzerland: Ranger/forest guard. Also a licensed hunter. (Mainly does protective hunting where's there's no real other choice). Liechtenstein: Tailor/Sewer, and owning her own business.
Norway: Crazy rich Stock Market Master, (but also has an education in Economy Lawyer). Denmark: Electrician. Holy smokes it fits him so well. 😂 xD Sweden: Carpenter, who also dabbles into sewing, glass-blowing, house construction/building and different smithings as hobbies. Ice/Lad/Kugel/Sea: Still in school, but give them time. 😂 xD
Bonus: Hungary: Some kind of lawyer, though not sure what kind. Don't think she'd be the same kind of lawyer as Norway though. Finland: Plumber & licensed hunter. Former military. Is considering switching/educating himself to a forest ranger/nature guide instead. England: Struggling. 😂 Okay, no, I think his dream job would be to become a librarian, but he's currently enjoying his job as one of Liechtenstein's tailors.
.
And then I go look at the rest and be like... "Uh... Would it be too stereotypical if I made Japan a mangaka or working with something related to IT?" , because I don't have a clear idea what everyone else would be working with yet. 😂 xD
I have been out for quite a looong time but HEY! I'm still part of this:D
I guess(?)
PruMano, bitches😎
Primavera, madre vera
Dimmi ancora solo una parola
Sono sola questa sera
Dimmi che l'amore è magia vera
Odio L’estate
So far away from L.A.
Una notte a Napoli~
yk i love this specific Romano that lives in my head rent free + his broad emotional spectrum
yes, am pathetic enough to post old sketches but i like this one. brainwashing you into thinking I can draw emotions: thats not true🫵🏼
8 April 1866 • A secret Italo-Prussian Treaty was signed
…according to which, Romano agreed he’d help kick Austria’s ass, and Prussia guaranteed he’d not back off from the war until Veneciano’s reunited with the rest of Italy.
Now, why Romano, you may ask, if the Risorgimento was initiated more so by the North? Well, in my interpritation, it all started with Sardinia/Piedmont-Sardinia/Savoy, (a separate OC because she deserves it), whilst Romano joined her in 1861, – who had been the Kingdom of Two Sicilies under the Bourbon rule prior, his people voting 98,5% to join. Thus, the Kingdom of Italy was proclaimed in 1861; with Venice still living under Austria’s rule up until 1866.
And it was mailnly upon Romano to be the Kingdom of Italy in the next 5 years. Not that he had ever wanted it.
[As you may have noticed, I got into PruMano and Risorgimento simultaneously, god forbid. And I’m trying not to trail off, but I’ve got a detailed version of the events’ interpretation in my head – what happened to Sardinia? why is it Romano and Veneciano, out of all, specifically, that came to be modern Italy? What about the Papal States? — but more on all that to come🫢]
The last thing I’ll add, is that though I tried to make their uniforms nerdy af accurate, basing Romano’s off Sicilian Regiments’ Chivalry and Prussia’s off high-ranking Prussian commandment on general, this is still a silly anime bois fanart first and foremost lol. Take nothing seriously
Somehow two important days coincided on these dates, and so I decided to simultaneously make sketches on this topic. Still not sure if this is a good idea
If anything, this is on the theme of the day of liberation from fascism in Italy, and the second sketch is on the theme of the tragedy in Chernobyl
Sort of an art dump of my less terrible art.
CANT STOP LISTENING TO PUKAPUKA VACATION!!!!
also forgot my watermark oops
Hetalia Siblings Week Interest Check
I was thinking of making a week to celebrate all the sibling relations in Hetalia!
You wouldn't be just limited to Canon sibling relations too:
Canon: It's confirmed in canon that they are siblings (Veneziano and Romano; America and Canada; Germany and Prussia, etc)
Historical/Cultural: Interpreting cultural or historical relations as a sibling dynamic (Slovakia, Czechia, and Poland being siblings due to their shared Western Slavic origin; Estonia, Finland, and Hungary being siblings due to their shared Uralic origin; The Germanics; etc)
Fanon: You've seen characters interact with each other and interpret their relationship as sibling like (Such as France claiming to be the big brother of Europe, The Baltics; Germany and Austria, England and America/Canada, etc)
Purely Aesthetics: You've never seen these characters interact in canon but you think it would be cool to see them with a sibling type bond (found family if you will)
*Of course, there is overlap among these four categories
If enough people are interested, I'll create a separate blog, poll for the prompts, and select a week. Please reblog for a wider outreach <3
Thank you so much for reading all this!
Ricordami Lullaby
I wrote this recently, I hope you all like it. Also the song is from Coco.
It’s not unusual for Feliciano to have nightmares or for his dreams to be just memories he’d rather forget. Lovino knew from the moment Feli stepped foot into his room, in the middle of the night, with silent tears streaming down his face and a downcast look, that the dreams that plagued his fratello this night were memories. He also knew from the way he was fidgeting that those memories were about Holy Rome. Lovino sighed and moved over allowing Feliciano to enter his room and curl up next to him on the bed. When the tears flowed for more then an hour, he knew he had to do more.
“Feli do want want to talk about.” He shook his head so hard that Lovino swore his brains would fly out of his ears.
“Idiota! You’ll make your depressed hangover even worse in the morning if you keep that up!” Poor Feliciano started to tremble and whimper.
I’m the idiota for raising my voice when he’s in this state. Lovino rolled his eyes at himself.
He needed to come up with solution for this problem as quickly as possible, as they needed to be up and out of the house early. He searched through his memories until something finally clicked and he hoped that it might help. He gently started carding his fingers through his fratello’s hair being mindful of the curl. Finally Feliciano started to calm, but the tears continued.
Lovino took a breath and sighed knowing what he had to say.
“Feli do you remember when we were young before that tomato bastard and the jerky ascot guy separated us?” Lovino spat out, then Feli whimpered. He realized his tone had become bitter and irritated. Realizing this he took a moment, sighed and calmed his voice once more.
“Remember when we were bambino’s and we lived with Grandpa Rome?”
Lovino held his breath for a moment hoping Feli would respond. His fratello made the slightest movement of his head. Lovino would not have known if he wasn’t playing with Feli’s hair. He decided to take that as a nod.
“Grandpa Rome would tuck us in every night and sing us a song.” Lovino reminisced. “And if we woke with nightmares he’d rush into comfort us and sing to us until we fell back asleep? I remember waking up a few times and he’d still be holding you and sitting in that rocking chair he made for us.” Lovino prays that these memories will combat the harsh ones going through Feli’s mind and not make it worse. Losing Grandpa Rome was incredibly difficult for Feli in particular. Lovino always had a stiff upper lip so he could protect Feli when possible. He always waited until he was alone to have any kind of breakdown.
Feli glanced up at him with his bloodshot eyes and tear stained face. And softly nodded again.
“Do you remember how it goes?” Feli’s eyes widened a bit, but he still said nothing and proceeded to cast his gaze downward once more.
“I think maybe it started like this.” Knowing full well what the lyrics were. He could never forget. They’re tattooed on his heart. Lovino took a deep breath and started to sing.
Ripensa a me
Non dimenticarlo mai
Lovino already felt Feli’s tremors start to dissipate. One lyric in and Feli was already starting to calm.
Ricordami
Dovunque tu sarai
Feli’s breathing is starting to even out. Lovino hears him sniffle a little bit and then sigh. If Lovino is being honest with himself, this making him emotional as well. He missed Grandpa Rome deeply.
Lo sai che devi fare se
Non sono insieme a te
Ascolta la canzone e tu
Sarai vicino a me
Lovino hears the crack in his own voice. He wonders if Grandpa Rome would be proud of him, for caring for his fratello. He will never know the answer for sure, but he hopes the answer is yes.
Ricordami
Ora devo andare via
He thinks possibly Feli has fallen asleep, but then notices his fingers, very lightly moving on the blanket to the tone of the song, his head still in Lovino’s lap.
Ripensa a me
Sentendo questa melodia
Feli finally looks Lovino in the eye and blinks. The looks as if he almost wants to ask a question but then finds the answer all on his own. His fratello takes a breath and does something that completely shocks him.
Feli started to sing along. Their voices harmonized for the final verse.
Uniremo con le note il cuore e le anime
Il tuo amore rimarrà sempre per me
Lovino freezes for a moment when Feli starts sniffling again, but finally for the first time that night he speaks.
“Grazie, Lovi.” Lovino looks down to see the meekest smile on his fratello’s face. He follows that thought with “I miss him.”
It’s a simple sentence that Lovino has heard countless times come out of his fratello’s mouth. He had to resist rolling his eyes and making a nasty face. He hated that kid for breaking Feli’s heart. Hate is not a strong enough word. He had seething blinding hate for him. He finally sighed because you simply cannot kill those who are already dead. He decided that in that moment Feli needed for Lovino to remain calm.
“I know, fratello.” Feli looked up at him almost surprised that Lovino didn’t give him some other answer.
“It’s Grandpa Rome who I miss the most.” Lovino’s almost stunned at that response. Feli is just not as vocal about it as he is about Holy Rome. Lovino has so many things he want to respond with. Instead he says something simple and reassuring.
“Me too.” Suddenly he felt Feli’s gentle touch on his cheek. He’s brushing away tears that Lovino didn’t know he was shedding.
“I know.” The cheeky bastard has a sly knowing smile on his face. Lovino’s too tired to be dealing with all of this right now. He turns to shut the bedside lamp off. He lay down hoping to get at least a few hours of shut eye before the world meeting in the morning.
“Grazie again Lovi.” He hears his fratello say.
“You speak of this to no one! Especially España or I will have no choice but to kill you. This night never happened!” Lovino screamed/grumbled at his brother. It irritated him to no end when that idiota snickered.
“Sì Lovi. Ti amo.”
“Why is it you must always smell of garlic?” He sighed to himself before whispering in a low voice, “Ti amo fratello.”
And with that he heard Feli start to snore lightly as he himself drifted off to sleep. Both were able to sleep peacefully until morning.
I don't want to disturb but could you please do Naples x Milan they are my otp 😅❤️❤️ Love your art and happy new years 🎉
Happy New Year to you as well ✨🌺

HOGWARTS AU BECAUSE I LOVE IT
Alfred: “Ah, we’ve got ourselves a self-proclaimed hero, hm? Well, let’s see how much of that is true. GRYFFINDOR!” Knows right from wrong with a great sense of justice and bravery! Perfect gryffindor qualities! One could argue that Alfred fits in Slytherin. His secret ingenuity, determination, leadership skills and most of all, ambition, could very well have landed him in that house. However, the Sorting Hat didn’t even consider it, because inside Alfred’s mind all he saw was a boy who wanted to help others, even if sometimes he messed it up. Alfred was brave and chivalrous. He’s also idealistic, stubborn and loath to back down. The main reason for his ambition in the first place was so that he could help other people. He wasn’t manipulative and cunning enough to be in Slytherin anyway. Clever and ingenius, but not manipulative at all. Alfred was honest to a fault. •Americat is his pet, he named him Bucky. •Really good at Defense against the Dark Arts, horrible at Potions. He likes Defense against the Dark Arts since it's fun and doesn't require books. •His patronus is an eagle. The eagle is a common symbol of strength, ferocity and willpower. The people with this patronus are often visionaries who believe in striving to reach greater personal freedom. Eagles also generally represent freedom, since they are free to go wherever they please and do whatever they want, untethered by the world’s cruelty. Those with this patronus are also eager to try new things and love a good challenge; eagles need to soar, after all. •He’s the Seeker on the Gryffindor team. Initially, he didn’t plan to become part of the Quidditch team. He was much more interested in staying inside his dorm and playing his video games. But when Quidditch was almost shut down in Hogwarts for the lack of players, Alfred joined. That’s because his brother Matthew was part of the Gryffindor Quidditch team (Chaser ever since 2nd year) and had been upset at the loss of his favorite past time. So Alfred joined to keep his brother happy. •Wand is Dogwood with phoenix feather. This wand is playful and mischievous, and insist on partners who can provide them excitement and fun. However, it would be wrong to deduce they are not capable of serious magic when called to do so; they have been known to perform outstanding spells under difficult conditions, and when paired with an equally fun-loving, clever and mischievous wizard, can produce dazzling enchantments. •5th Year •Muggle-born. Arthur: “AHA! A KIrkland. I know exactly what to do with you. SLYTHERIN!” A proud boy from a family of Slytherins. He only cunning and strategic overachiever! He's incredibly clever and a stickler for the rules, but is willing to break them to achieve his ends. He has a prim and proper appearance, but is quite the rebel himself. •Has Iggycat as his pet •He's actually good at Potions, but absolutely despises Divination. He wants to punch his Divination professor. •Ebony with unicorn hair wand. Ebony wands are happiest in the hand of those with the courage to be themselves. Ebony wand-owners are usually non-conformist, highly individual or comfortable with the status of outsider, ebony wand-owners have been found both among the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters. Ebony’s perfect match is a person who holds fast to their beliefs, no matter what the external pressure, and will not be swayed slightly from their purpose. Arthur is a perfect match for this wand. •5th year
•Thinks Quidditch is vulgar, but interesting. -He's like Hermione except he's mean and grumpy and less of a decent person. -He comes from a long line of purebloods. They used to be highly influential and prestigious, but by the time the Kirkland name had been passed down to Arthur’s generation, they were nothing more than a ghost of what they had been before. Now they’re just an old wizarding family not unlike the Weasleys, but worse (in society’s eyes) since they’re a family of Slytherins. -Arthur’s patronus is a Lion. Prideful, majestic, but ferocious creatures. Lions have a sense of royalty and grace, even the way they walk is elegant. Lions also have a strong sense of protectiveness, family and wisdom. Arthur is wise beyond his years (in a different way than Francis, of course), and as the youngest of five brothers, Arthur also strongly values family, whether by heart or by blood. He is also rather protective, and uses his stubbornness and ferocity to protect those he loves with all his might. Lions are powerful yet elegant; just like Arthur. -His robes and everything he owns are hand-me-downs from his brothers. Only his wand and cat are his. He is the youngest of five brothers, so he never gets anything new. Some of his books have doodles in them from the time they belonged to his brothers.
-When the Hat was put on Arthur’s head, it said, “AHA! A Kirkland. I know exactly what to do with you. SLYTHERIN!”
-Arthur’s brothers had been Hat Stalls. Scott was nearly put into Hufflepuff, and Liam and Patrick (N. Ireland and Ireland, respectively) were almost sorted into Gryffindor. Owen (Wales) had almost been sorted into Ravenclaw. Arthur however, was a Slytherin through and through. Francis: “Hmm..difficult, very difficult...patient and caring like a Hufflepuff...whimsical, artistic and wise like a Ravenclaw...cunning, ambitious and prideful like a Slytherin...You’re quite the character, Mr. Bonnefoy. Do you have a preference?---Oh? Very well then. RAVENCLAW!” Francis is known for his beauty and arts. He is a wise person with a flair for design. His flair and wisdom would land him in the house of intelligence and beauty; Ravenclaw! -Pierre is his pet -Charms is his favorite subject, he’s a teacher’s pet to Flitwick and they’ve had several tea parties together. His least favorite subjects are Herbology and Divination. Herbology because he hates the uniform they have to wear in the greenhouse and how dirty it is in there (otherwise he actually likes some of the plants they work with) and for Divination he just thinks its nonsense and has no idea how to do the subject. -5th year -He also thinks Quidditch is quite vulgar. -Alder with dragon heartstring. Alder wands’ ideal matches aren’t stubborn or obstinate, but rather helpful, considerate, charming and sensitive to emotions, which is why this wand mixes poorly with Dark Magic. They work best with charming people, who are open-minded and welcoming. When properly matched, the alder wand is capable of a subtlety and artistry rarely seen in other wands, hence its lustrous reputation. -Pureblood. His family used to also be a prestigious and influential bloodline, but when the title of “wizarding nobles” fizzled out, the Bonnefoys ran from the wizarding world and hid with the Muggles. Francis’ family is quite wealthy in the Muggle world, but not so much the wizarding world. Unlike other purebloods, the Bonnefoys don’t live in the wizarding world. They blended themselves in with the Muggles and live ordinary non-magic lives, they even sent Francis to a Muggle school (that’s where he met Alfred and Matthew) rather than a wizarding one like Arthur. So he knew quite a lot about both the Muggle world and the wizarding world, and acted as an arbiter between Muggle-born Alfred who was clueless about magic and Pureblood Arthur who was clueless about Muggles. -Patronus is a dove. The dove is a well known symbol of love and peace, and is also a symbol of gentleness and compassion, belonging to those who encourage others through example. Between Alfred, Arthur, Yao and Ivan, Francis is the kindest of the group with the most compassion and empathy. Though he can come off as quite haughty and snobbish, he really is quite sweet.
Ivan: *hat barely touches his head* “SLYTHERIN!” He’s all about competition and being the strongest player on the field. He’s not afraid to use his size--or extensive knowledge of unique, painful spells--to get you to agree with him. He is under no false pretense that the things he does are for the greater good, in fact he is aware that some of his actions are considered bad, but convinced himself that everyone else already thinks he is so why not act like it every once in a while. He does what he does for his own sake, rather than for “the greater good”. He’s plays fairly, but if he catches someone cheating he won’t stop them if it makes the game more interesting. He is also quite the leader, and is Professor Winter’s (Head of Slytherin House) favorite student, and is arguably the cleverest and strongest wizard in Slytherin, perhaps the entire school. His second-closest house is Hufflepuff; while he can be manipulative and enjoys power, the most important thing in the world to him are his loved ones. He can soldier on without friends, but he wishes there was someone who could understand his nature, compete against him, and still enjoy his company. He hated being so alone. Unlike Arthur, he had the title of “loner” unwillingly. He’s fiercely loyal and overprotective, there’s nothing he wouldn’t do for those close to him. He is also witty, eccentric and creative enough for Ravenclaw, but ultimately, his dark and manipulative ways landed him in Slytherin. Arthur and Gilbert look down on the Hufflepuffs, but Ivan envies how easy-going and friendly they are.
-Russikot is his pet -He’s great at all his subjects, and feels pretty neutral about all of them. He doesn’t exactly feel strong emotions, after all. But if he had to pick a favorite, he’d pick DADA for the reason that he’s partnered up with Alfred in that class and he needs to take that class the most seriously (for a certain life goal he has in mind). The one he hates most is Divination because of how spacey and weird their Professor is and because he thinks it’s utter nonsense. Ivan is a man of logic, even magic had its own certain logic that Ivan could understand, but Divination was impossible for him. And Ivan hated when he wasn’t good at something, so he took the class off his schedule after two weeks of frustration. Usually you’re not allowed to change a class within the term and can only change them at the start of the next term, but Ivan had (unintentionally) intimidated the Headmaster into bending the rule for him. -Seeker on Slytherin team ever since 2nd year. -Rivals with Alfred in Quidditch. -Yew with phoenix feather wand. Yew wands’ ideal owner is someone unusual, and occasionally notorious. Yew is reputed to endow its possessor with the power of life and death, which might be said about all wands, but yew retains a particularly dark and fearsome reputation in the spheres of dueling and curses. However it’s untrue that Yew wands are more attracted to Dark Arts than others. The wizard best suited for this wand is someone who is a fierce protector of their loved ones. The yew wand has been found in the possession of heroes just as often as of villains. The yew wand never chooses a mediocre or timid owner, the possessor of a yew wand is most likely very powerful with the qualities of a leader. -Pureblood. Unlike both Francis and Arthur, his family’s influence and prestige didn’t fizzle out. The Braginskies were very much still in power to this day, that’s why when Ivan’s name was called during Sorting everyone looked to each other and started whispering and pointing at him. The Slytherins in particular looked really excited, and when the Hat screamed SLYTHERIN they screamed louder than any other. Whispers followed Ivan the moment he had left his dormitory on the first day. Of course, the whispers died down eventually, but everyone still avoids him in the corridors and even the Professors duck their heads down when passing him. That’s because Ivan’s particular family was a crime family, not exactly Death Eaters, they just did a lot of dirty business in the shadows (which sometimes included taking lives). Ivan had gotten his Hogwarts letter shortly before he was exiled from his family. Since he was eleven now, he had to start training to become the next Braginsky Family Head, but when Ivan finally stood up for himself and said he didn’t want to, his father became furious and exiled him. Ivan was just lucky he had a Hogwarts letter, and had somewhere to go. His older sister secretly put him on a plane to England, but said she couldn’t help him further. Ever since being exiled, Ivan hasn’t had any contact with his sisters, which saddens him, so he hopes to become a powerful wizard so he can finally confront his father and bring his sisters with him to England. Even on the platform, the other students were all being fretted over by their relatives, but Ivan just stood there alone. That’s why Ivan takes DADA so seriously, since his father uses Dark magic. -His patronus is a bear. Bears are famously known to be lovable sweethearts, but they can be ferocious and aggressive. They are very powerful and intimidating, but once you get past that they are very cuddly and caring just like Ivan. Bears are also very protective of their loved ones and are possessive creatures like Ivan is. Now that Ivan doesn’t have his family after being exiled, and he doesn’t have any friends, Ivan only has one person in his life. Ivan has abandonment issues after being exiled, so he’s paranoid that this person will leave him. That’s why Ivan is incredibly protective of him and borderline possessive, but he is also very sweet and caring towards him more than any other. -5th year. -Ivan stayed in Hogwarts and didn’t go back home during Christmas in his first year. However, in his second year, Alfred took him to spend Christmas with his family. Alfred also had quite the big family (not immediate, but his mother’s family is big) who were over for the holidays so it was fun.
-Ivan wished he had been in Hufflepuff, but knows that ultimately he would be even more ostracized in that House. Hufflepuffs are kind and friendly to everyone, while Ivan is only kind when he thinks it’s earned. Everyone is “every man for themselves” in Slytherin, and in a way that did make Ivan fit in. He definitely would not ‘fit in’ in Hufflepuff. He’d be like a big sheepdog in a crowd full of sheep. While Ivan’s lack of friends did bother him, he didn’t make the effort to get friends in the first place because he didn’t know how to and the thought of putting so much effort just to talk to people already tired him out so he didn’t.
-While Ivan had the qualities of a leader, the only difference was that he didn’t want to be a leader. He had been asked to be the Slytherin prefect, but rejected the position (now the position belongs to Arthur. The previous prefect was Scott Kirkland, but he graduated). Arthur bragged about it constantly and even said that Winter probably recognized how great he was and was like “Let’s give the position to Arthur! That lad is so responsible and mature! He’d be perfect for it”, but Winter actually didn’t want to give it to anyone other than Ivan. He persisted Ivan for a few weeks, but he was firm in his decision, so Winter begrudgingly gave it to Arthur. When Ivan told Alfred this, Alfred had to hold himself back from laughing in Arthur’s face.
-Despite being “manipulative” in a way, Ivan was actually straight-forward and honest. He never manipulated by lying. He did it through intimidation. Ivan also didn’t like liars and secretive people (even though he was very secretive himself) which is why he likes the honest-to-a-fault Alfred. They were polar opposites in the way that Ivan was mysterious, secretive and impossible to read, while Alfred was an open book, always speaks his mind and wears every emotion on his face. Ivan likes him because he was the opposite of himself.
-Ivan’s ‘only person in his life’ is Alfred. They were enemies in their first year, but became friends and Ivan developed feelings for him in their second year. Then Ivan confessed and they started dating in their third year. Being fifth years, this is their second year as a couple.
Yao: "Oh my, another difficult one. You could fit in all the Houses, Mr. Wang. Do you have a certain preference?---I see, very well then. RAVENCLAW!” With Yao's own weathered beauty and wisdom, he landed a spot in Ravenclaw! Smart, mature, and witty. What better words could be used to describe Yao or Ravenclaws? He is also rather creative and very witty, often the one coming up with strategies to everything, but is never the one to do it himself because he’s (as Alfred calls) a baby. He’s like the man in the chair, while the rest of the group are the ones who work on the field. He’s the only one with any real common sense, but is more often than not distracted by food. He fits in all Houses; Gryffindor for his honor and passion; Hufflepuff for his loyalty and kindness; Slytherin for his cunning and the way he views things as “business transactions”. But ultimately he was put into Ravenclaw for his creativity and wit. He is strikingly similar to an Asian mom. -5th year, but was born a couple months before Francis so he lords it over everyone else that he’s “the oldest”. -Accidentally transformed a match into a bug. He freaked out, and had to stand outside the Transfiguration classroom.
-Cedar with dragon heartstring wand. Those with cedar wands have their own unique strength and unusual loyalty. Those who carry these wands aren’t easily fooled. A cedar wand finds its match in those who are shrewd and perceptive. Ollivander himself has never met an owner of a cedar wand who he would dare cross, especially if harm is done to whom they are fond. The wizard who carries this wand can prove a formidable adversary, which comes as a shock even to those who know him. -Doesn't play on the Quidditch team, says it gives him back problems. -Patronus is a panda. Pandas are said to be a symbol of peace and luck, which happens to be true for Yao since he always seems to be in the right place at the right time. Yao is also very superstitious, so he believes that his luck is solely because of this patronus. Alfred says this patronus is fitting for him because Yao also spends half of his day sleeping and half of his day eating. Pandas are a symbol of gentle strength. Yao himself might be small in size but short in stature, but was always bristles and thorns at the slightest provocation. -Chinacat is his pet. -Is the only one actually good at Divination because of his superstitious ways. Is also good at Potions because he’s good at cooking, but the Potions Professor has to remind Yao not to eat some of the edible ingredients. He just can’t help himself. Yao’s worst subject is DADA, mostly because he can’t be good at it through books and is infamously bad at duels. -Half-blood, but grew up with Muggle-father. Yao’s family is poor, which is why Yao values money so much. They own a chinese restuarant where Yao grew up and learned to cook. Yao constantly advertises the restaurant and even hands out flyers, sometimes he’d randomly bring up the restaurant and start casually advertising it like he was in a commercial. Yao’s business-like way of interacting people both amuses and tires Ivan out. He thinks its deceptive, and he doesnt like dishonesty.
-When Alfred asks how Yao is so thin even though he loves food, Yao answered, “Poverty. Hard to get fat in famine.”
-He carries food with him everywhere.
-Yao had chosen Ravenclaw because he thought it was the best. A House full of creative, intelligent people? Being creative and intelligent was like a business man’s bread and butter! Yao could polish up his advertisement skills for the restaurant. Once again, Yao was only thinking of business when he got sorted into his House. Matthew: “You are difficult. Very, very difficult...” Gryffindor! Matthew had been a Hat Stall. The Hat sat on his head for almost half an hour trying to decide between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff, but eventually it settled on Gryffindor. Matthew was almost the very definition of a Hufflepuff; kind, loyal, gentle, compassionate, caring; but Matthew also turned into quite the hothead when his emotions were high. Matthew was not shy, just introverted. It’s not like Matthew wasn’t brave after all; He constantly stood up against Alfred whenever the latter breaks rules, he enters duels confidently, he had signed up for the Quidditch team on his own accord, and isn’t afraid to jump into action to protect his brother. He valued morals above all else, and used them for fairplay, but he also used them in confronting others. Matthew was secretive, he was good at keeping to himself and was a loner. He was kind to everyone and often forgotten. He valued fairplay and hardwork. But his inner beast and secret fiery attitude had landed him in Gryffindor. He didn’t need to be separated from his brother to discover himself. Often, Alfred was the one who always encouraged him to put himself out there, so he didn’t regret being put into this House. -They allowed Kumajirou cause he's still a cub and doesn't cause trouble. -Matthew is good at all his subjects, but his favorite is Care of Magical Creatures. He almost wet himself during the first Potions class though. -Chaser on the Gryffindor team ever since 2nd year. Star player. -5th year -Patronus is a Moose. -Muggleborn. -Maple and dragon heartstring core. Maple itself possesses lethal power, but if teamed with dragon heartstring, the wand never teams with a wizard without exceptional self-control and strength of mind. -He's like Neville, but more snarky and powerful. -Just wants to graduate but is constantly being dragged into Alfred's schemes.
-Unwilling partners with Gilbert in Potions. Matthew wants to punch him in the face.
-The head of Gryffindor House himself said that Matthew was a very strong fighter, physically and mentally. Feliciano: “Whimsical and artistic like a Ravenclaw, I see. But your fierce loyalty, strong morals and overwhelming kindness win you a place in HUFFLEPUFF!” Feliciano is all about equality and fairplay, he is one of the kindest characters who has never once argued with anybody and isn’t disliked by anyone either.
-Itabby is his pet -Best subject is Alchemy. He would be good at Potions if Snape’s presence didn’t make him so nervous. -The plants in Herbology scare him sometimes, and so do the animals in Care of Magical Creatures. -Pureblood. The Vargas family also used to be strong and influential, but they suffered the most devastating fall of all. -His patronus is a fox. -Rowan with phoenix feather wand. The Rowan wood wands are best at defense like shields and healing magic, which works for the kind Feliciano, and his fear of getting harmed. Feliciano’s shields and protection spells are the hardest to break. Feliciano usually uses these spells on himself, and that’s why he’s honed them to perfection. It is commonly stated that no wizard has ever owned a rowan wand, and none of Ollivander’s wands had ever gone to do evil in the world. Rowan is most happily placed with the clear-headed and the pure-hearted, but this reputation of virtue ought not to fool anyone. Often, rowan wands outperform others. Feliciano himself is amazingly skilled at duels, and has defeated Ludwig several times. Duels are all about speed and reaction time, and Feliciano is the fastest of them all. The only difference is that Feliciano doesn’t want to hurt anyone, so he never shows this strength unless necessary. -5th year -Wanted to be on the Quidditch team but is terrified of the Bludgers. -He freaked out and broke a good majority of his bones during his first Flying lesson. Ludwig: “Aha, a Beilschmidt. Oh, but quite different from the other Beilschmidts I’ve sorted...I know where to put you. Gryffindor!
Ludwig values bravery of all things. Goes above and beyond to the right thing, he is responsible and mature, knows what's good and what's bad. A brave and courageous person who is filled with determination and chivalry. He follows books to the T, but that makes him too narrow-minded for free-flowing and creative Ravenclaw. Ravenclaws are flexible, they’re whimsical and creative; which Ludwig is none of. The reason he was sorted into Gryffndor is the same reason why Hermione was; Above all, they value justice and morality. Ludwig is too rigid for Ravenclaw, and just because he’s smart doesn’t mean he’s automatically in that House. -5th year -Has Germaneko as his pet cause god knows he can't bring his dogs. -Excels in all subjects. Tries his best at Divination. Is too nice to take out of his schedule because the teacher knows Ludwig is the only one who tries.
-Always has to help Feliciano during Potions. -Chaser on Gryffindor team -Ash wood with unicorn hair core. Ash wands only work well for the owner that they have chosen, so they cannot be passed down or given to someone else for use because they will lose power. The best person suited for this wand is not easily swayed from their beliefs, however, the brash or over-confident wizard who insists on trying this prestigious wood, will find themselves disappointed. The ideal owner may be stubborn and courageous, but definitely not crass or arrogant. -Pureblood, Beilschmidts used to be a large and influential family too but fell alongside the Vargases. They’re a line of Slytherins, so Ludwig is an anomaly. -Gilbert was devastated when he got sorted into Gryffindor. Ludwig was glad though. He loved his brother and father, but he didn’t want to be a Slytherin. Edgar (Germania) was fine with it though, which Gilbert was surprised by, since Edgar had made a big deal about Gilbert being sorted into Slytherin (which is why Gil had begged the Hat to put him in that house) -Patronus is a German Shepherd. -Gryffindor prefect. Alfred calls him “a stick in the mud”
Kiku: “Ooh, I know the perfect House for you. Ravenclaw!” An intellectual know-it-all who is very wise and creative. The most ravenclaw Ravenclaw to every be in ravenclaw. He is the perfect representative of that house. Creative, wise, intelligent and determined. He is a curious person who loves to learn new things. He fits in no other house. Ravenclaw was probably designed after Kiku. -5th year -Has Pochi as his pet. -Excels in every subject. Tries his best in Divination but isn’t very good at it. -Doesn’t want to be prefect, so he rejected the position and it was given to Roderich instead. -Seeker for Ravenclaw. -His actual origin is unknown. He was adopted by a Muggle man and a witch (Yao’s parents), but she died soon after giving birth to Leon and Mei, so he only knew her for a few months. He was raised by Muggles. Yao and Kiku are a year older than Leon and Mei, but he got his letter at 12 years old. Yung Soo was also adopted a few months after Kiku, and his origins are unknown.
-Has a koi-fish as a patronus. -Best friends with Alfred ever since they got partnered up in Charms. -Cedar wand with phoenix feather core. Lovino: “Ooh...hardworking, determined, and loyal...that sounds like a Hufflepuff--Oh? No? You don’t want? Well, there is one other House I can put you in. You sure? Alright. Slytherin!”
One might argue that he lacks the ambition of a Slytherin; Yes, he doesn’t need to be the best, he just wants to be better than his brother at just one thing at least. Slytherins are self-preserved, ambitious, determined, cunning, resourceful and clever. Lovino is very self-preserved, and never goes out of his way to put himself in danger, with the exception of doing so for his loved ones. His ambition and determination is often undermined since he always fails to be better than Feliciano. Every time he thinks he’s finally better at something, Feliciano shows up. However, he doesn’t stop and keeps working at it, to the point that even Gilbert had complimented Lovino for it. Lovino also lives in a very dangerous part of Italy, to the point that he attached a chain to his wallet to avoid it from being pickpocketed, which is proof of his resourcefulness and cleverness. Slytherins aren’t afraid to do whatever they need to achieve what they want, and Lovino demonstrates this; he even uses others (including his brother) for his own benefit. Many argue that Lovino’s (selective) loyalty, hard work and determination is why he’s a Hufflepuff, but the reason why he does it is the difference. Hufflepuffs do all this because they are selfless and humble, while Slytherins do it because it’s best for themselves. Lovino only does something if it benefits him. He always comes first in his mind, in every decision he makes he thinks “how will this help me?” He might fit in Hufflepuff, but knowing his brother is in that House Lovino begged the Hat to put him somewhere else. He was sick of being in Feliciano’s shadow.
-Romacat is his pet -Doesn't like his house. He actually wanted to be sorted into Slytherin so maybe he could be separated from his brother for once (having shared everything in their lives) but unfortunately he’s not. -5th year -Beater in Slytherin. His sole reason for joining was so he could beat a Bludger at Ludwig’s direction whenever he plays against Gryffindor. He has yet to actually land a hit on him though. He loves playing against Hufflepuff too so he could beat his brother, who’s Chaser on the Hufflepuff team.
-Excels at Herbology. He wanted to punch all his other teachers, though. -Laughed at Feliciano when he fell from his broom. -His ‘cunningness’ is normally only used to get Antonio to do his homework. Lovino is mean to everyone, he has a selective loyalty and is very exclusive with his friendships, where even Feliciano has trouble fitting in his circle. He’s decent to Antonio, but that’s because Antonio does his homework for him. -Patronus is a fox -Pure-blooded, and very proud of it. However, whenever someone brings up the fall of the Vargas family or asks about his family’s past, he coughs awkwardly and deflects. -Willow and phoenix feather. The wand wood is the same as Ron’s because they remind me of each other. They value greatness and ache to finally make something out of himself and step out of his brothers’ shadow. They both have that kind of insecurity. -Good at charms, not as good as his brother though -Genuinely does not like any subject other than Herbology.
Gilbert: Slytherin! Sly, ambitious and cunning! Perfect Slytherin, no doubt about it. He knows it, I know it, everyone knows it. He has an extroverted nature, but is actually a lone wolf. He playfully deflects about his loneliness, but everyone knows about it. He loves to write in books and is free-flowing just like Ravenclaws, but his arrogance and (sometimes selfish) ambitiousness overthrows his bookishness. He has big plans for himself in order to prove that he isn’t the infamous letdown that his father thinks he is. He’s actually really good friends with Lovino, the two of them bond over being in their brother’s shadow. Antonio does Lovino’s homework, but being in the same house, Lovino spends more time with Gilbert. They’re often always together. -5th year -Beater in Slytherin. Conflicted about playing against Gryffindor, he doesn’t want to hurt his brother. Hates the fact that Ivan is the one who wins the game for them. -Excels in every subject, personal favorite is Defense against the Dark Arts. He is good at everything, and just deliberately messes up Potions to get a rise out of Matthew. He enjoys provoking Matthew, wanting to crack the other’s calm and composed mask. It took two months, but Matthew finally sent Gilbert flying through the corridor with a Stupefy spell. He got ten points taken off from Gryffindor for that, but he still though it was worth it. -Pureblood but doesn’t shove it in people’s faces like Arthur does. -Willow and dragon heartstring. Wand wood is same as Lovino’s for the exact same reason. -Patronus is a raven -Gilbird is his pet and he brings Gilbert letters. -Bothers Arthur about being prefect. Alfred had told him about Ivan actually being the first option, and now Gilbert won’t shut up about it.
Hey guys, sorry for like...dying and stuff.
I’m back now to show off my “new” artstyle, wich I am a lot more happy with then my old one!
This is Romano from Keep_looning’s story: Of flowers and weeds. It’s an amazing story, and I advise everyone to go read it!

Here is my prumano secret valentines gift for @celosia-starfall , their prompt was “spies/agents” so I decided to draw them in some kinda fight, but Prussia is not focusing at all.
I’m not 100% pleased with the results but I had to settle for something, and this was the best one I made.
@prumano-week
If it’s not clear what they are saying, here:
Prussia - Beanbags are just boneless sofas...
Romano - Not the time idiot!
Spain: “Er it popped again!”
I loved his shirt so much I had to draw this. Romano is just tired of the walking fashion disaster. Lux is messing around with his older brother by copying his hairstyle.
