I was stupid for showing up to a live meeting, stading there extremely uncomfortable, why? Well, an American pain was arguing with China again, but I was just thanking God that he wasn't arguing with me this time. Then I hear "Soviet?! Ha, He's." I got very upset "Their... America." America whipped around to face me giving me the worst death stare I've ever gotten from him. "What?" I could feel my face becoming a darker red than normal. "They, Them, Their and Theirs America." America took a few seconds and then his face changed to that of being upset. "Oh shit! Yeah fuck! I'm so sorry!" I smiled. I had only told people the truth about what my pronouns were yesterday, and I thought America would be a dick about it because it was me. But NO, he was surprisingly the first to start calling by them, but he does still slip. He is trying extremely hard to get it right and he gets so embarrassed when he messes up and says him instead of them. I don't blame him though I did only come out yesterday and it does take some time and me correcting him and the others for it to really sink in! Hopefully by the end of the month!
