I will, I've got manners. [This is a ridiculous retort because not only are America's manners spotty at best he often forgets to say thank you.]

[keepscalm]

[Despite England's internal conflict, the only response to that is a short, disbelieving laugh.]

[America huffs, indignant.] I can say stuff like thank you!

[keepscalm]

When was the last time you thanked someone for something they did for you?

[fifty]

I-- [America hesitates as a million little instances of times where he did and didn't say it at the same time flash through his brain. Too many of them involve England.] Dunno. But I have!

[keepscalm]

If you've got no idea, then you don't say it often enough.

Well-- [America is clearly upset, now. It's not his fault he can't remember!] Whatever. Who cares?

[keepscalm]

Real heroes aren't ungrateful when someone does them a favour.

[Or many, many favours by now, in England's case. Naturally, he says it in the way he thinks will be most memorable for America. Or the way that will get under his skin the best. Same thing.]

Who cares! Bye! [America turns off the feed as impulsively as he often hangs up the phone.]
