[England will call all the nations together some time before the trial. Once everyone's there, he kicks the door shut behind him.]

All right, let me make this clear. I called all of you here because I don't think any of you killed Poland. We may not always get along, but none of us are stupid enough to kill another country when we have no idea what it will do to their people, not even Spain. If his people really are dead, all of us are going to be in deep trouble when we get back.

We need to figure out a way to prevent this from happening again to any of us. I know that Poland was a hunter. I don't care. I don't care if any of you are either. If another one of us dies, whatever we'll wind up going back to will be even worse than this town.

I think most of us are "safe" for now. At least, compared to... ( His voice tails. ) England has a target on him right now.

As long as the Hunters think he has a role, he's in danger. ... And so are the ones closest to him.

( Looking at you now, America. )

Don't worry. We have an advantage because they don't know who's who.

England's sneaky and stuff, so they'll probably guess that he's lying when he says he's on himself and he's really protecting me. But I'm protecting him, so joke's on them, we're both gonna be totally fine.

What if they believe he is really safe-- which he is, if you are protecting him-- and they try to get at him another way? What if they try to kill you instead?

Have you ever seen England when he's emotional?

[He rolls his eyes.]

First of all, yes, like, all the time.

[He both means that and doesn't; he knows Spain is talking about something different than England getting angry over his scones not being appreciated, but he's seen that too, and he's sure better than Spain ever has. He's not really interested in being lectured about it.]

Second of all, you act like I'm planning to sacrifice myself for England and the only thing that will stop me is he might be sad. I'm flattered you think I'm such a hero, but fat freaking chance. I'll protect myself too just fine, dummy.
