America has dreamed of the stars for as long as he can remember. Fighting for his dream made be harder then he thought as he fights the race to space with his sworn enemy, the Soviet Union. Hardship, struggle, doubt, and destruction are sure to follow, but can his family and friends be enough for him to finally catch the stars? 

I'm bad at descriptions sorry. 

TLDR:  America is really into space and has daddy issues, Soviet Union is a jerk, there's lots of wholesome moments and angst, and this is a loose interpretation to the Space Race from history. 


This is the prequel story and partial conclusion to "We Are a Family" (A USSR FAMFIC). You do not have had to read the original story in order to read this book and can start here if you'd like. 

Special thanks and full credits of headcanons, designs, and some ideas to @Arrietty-Rune aka @the_fox_witch (on IG). 

Happy reading!!

"Oh hey! Who are you? Are you guys an audience of my everyday entertainment? Glad to be here, I'm your producer, ███." "Get on with the description, stop spewing nonsense." "Brother, am I supposed to?" "You are supposed to do that, yet you fail miserably." "Oh, I'll get on with it then." America, an ████████, who's on Earth goes back to the kingdoms. He meets Russia, the Northern prince or the ███████ on his first day and bonded with each other. Within a couple days of knowing each other, they realized their mutual goal to fight for justice and freedom and goes on a rampage to return the spots of monarchs back to their rightful people. And yet, after so long, they don't know much of each other. Russia, however, has another goal on his mind, given by me! Yours truly, ███! "Ok Mr. Producer, get a move on, there's more to do than this." "Come on, you know I don't get too many chances to do this." "Half the description is literally redacted. Plus, you get to do this like nineteen more times, don't be greedy." "It's not my fault the audience physically can't understand me!" "I'm ending this for you." ----------------------------------------------------------------- Very not historically and geographically correct I KNOW THE PACING IS TERRIBLE 🧍 THERE WILL BE RUSAME AT SOME POINT Very much inspired by rr and wwms This is like if rr and wwms had a child except the child is dumb

The tall tale of the later hardships faced by "the gifted child". As Russia ages, he finds his life dulling because he has nothing to live for. He had already succeeded in so much that his life loses purpose. One fateful day he unexpectedly befriends America who understands exactly how he is feeling. He persuades Russia to partake in deadly events with him to help him feel excitement again. Intelligently gifted depressed psychopaths should never become addicted to danger... or become besties. 🦠🦠🦠 America glances back over to me with a menacing grin plastered onto his face. He laughs and its echo haunts my ears. "I don't think I'm insane; surely my entire situation is understandable. If it weren't, I would've been put into that asylum when I was younger." I stare into his doe mismatched colored eyes. What the hell did I get myself into? "America, you are insane." I repeat. I was truly at a loss for words and had conflicting emotions. Crossing the street blindfolded was the last thing I had expected him to try. And yet, I was even more disturbed at how much I wanted to try it for myself... "And so are you, Russia." he says chillingly as if he had a key to my gated mind. "We are not so different and you know it. You are not normal; you revealed that to me in your past. Our horrible childhoods molded us into what we are today. " "I'm not fucking crazy." I tell him, "I find hobbies to feel alive- not to try to kill myself!" 🦠🦠🦠 **Not the story you will be expecting** ⚠️ Warning: This is a fictional novel, so please don't attempt or copy anything life threatening that these characters do, thanks TuT 💗 All art is mine :) 🫧 - Yes, there are many allusions to famous works of literature because I am an obsessed fanatic for them!! Also I included a shit ton of symbolism and foreshadowing. So be on the look out for everything! ✨ ;)
How bad could it be? by Blake_Starrs
7 parts Ongoing Mature
America felt like he was going to pop. Friday, a fortnight till prom is when he'll confess to him, and they'll go to prom together and have fun. Unless he rejects America, then he'll just go with his best friend and his best friend's boyfriend. His best friend, Poland...He had some odd taste. America wasn't sure what it was about his boyfriend, but he gave him such a strange feeling. Then again, America wasn't going to bring it up, because the two were together after years of Poland crushing on him. America is downright scared to be around Russia, how is he supposed to ask him out? He can't run away, Poland would either kill him or force him to ask Russia out. All America is trying to do at this point is gain courage and not lose his sanity. How bad could it be? The worst he could say is no... The cover is temporary and it's only going to be there till a certain chapter. TW's for mild violence, threats of violence, light descriptions of blood and being bruised, cursing, brief use of slurs, and homosexuality/LGBTQ themes. Tags will be updated as the story goes on. ALSO THERE ARE NO BETA READERS AT THE MOMENT, We die like Tavros (This story does not align with current world events or countries in real life and is made in good fun. I do not ship countries in real life or in seriousness, and it will only be in the story if it serves the plot. This story will get less country-human-based as it goes on and I use different names, the only thing that will tie it with the fandom or irl countries will be their designs and sometimes backgrounds. If you're offended, please don't read.) This story is heavily America-centric, after a certain amount of chapters it will exclusively focus on America(s) with some other countries sprinkled in, this includes ships.
