Oh, where do you RP? And what characters? I don't RP myself (no time, and I always freak out over characterization) but I love reading threads... that's where I get a few cracky crossover ships from. XD Anyways, to the original subject-- I can understand that, but I love showing off my icons. =P

I've always been a crazy shipper, though it wasn't really bad until I got into fandom. But when I was a little kid, I'd ship things that had moments that I thought were cute. When I got into fandom, I started running into fanfiction for the craziest pairings-- and adoring them. So, now I ship anything and anyone who I think suit each other. =P

I think my favorite character might be Germany, which was a total accident, I swear. It has nothing to do with me already adoring that country outside Hetalia. But yes, the character you named are amazing. I haven't read too many of the extra strips yet, just a few, so I haven't really seen England & Japan interact yet. But! England and America are very amusing indeed.

I can do that too, although my rambles usually get killed by the other person's short replies. XD But I enjoy conversation, despite my antisocial tendencies.
