Emo period 😔💔🥀

Norway is perhaps one of the most misinterpreted characters, so I thought I would flesh out the other, lesser-known sides of him. He actually has a pretty wonderful personality, possessing several unique oddities and quirks that make Nordic-centred strips a pleasure to read.

Misconception: Norway’s emotionless.

Norway’s far from cold and emotionless. If anything, he’s a bit spacey and pensive, which can sometimes give off the impression of indifference. Other countries have made note of this, claiming that Norway “thinks from an entirely different dimension.”

Remember that Norway is able to see and communicate with magical creatures, including England’s. It’s not so much that he’s detached from emotions, but that he’s occasionally detached from the real world given how mundane, trivial, and boring it can be.

Misconception: He’s not close with the other Nordics

While Norway may make passive-sarcastic remarks or even blunt quips towards the other Nordic countries, he cares about them deeply. It’s not obvious because he’s a very timid character and doesn’t necessarily express this affection in an open manner.

After showing concern for Denmark’s health, Denmark refers to Norway as a worry wart.

Norway is also noted to stick his nose into Iceland’s business a lot. Notice the use of words. While bugging Iceland may be a bonus for Norway, who does in fact enjoy teasing Iceland, there’s a clear emotional investment to look after his little brother’s well-being.

Misconception: He doesn’t have a sense of humour.

Norway has a great and subtle sense of humour, albeit odd.

He and Iceland refer to each other as punks (totally adorable).

When Iceland has trouble getting his goods noticed on the market, the other Nordics develop a plan to help the former out. During their brainstorming, Norway jokes and says that he’ll dance as part of the process.

Misconception: He’s mean

Norway has a gentle and shy way of showing his kindness that is often overlooked.

Back to the idea of him poking his nose into Iceland’s business, Iceland secretly doesn’t mind Norway’s interference. There’s nothing but good intentions on Norway’s part, as he’s always looking after Iceland’s best interest.

Speaking of which, remember that time when Norway didn’t know what present to buy for Iceland?

Norway sends Iceland a link while they’re both outside a present shop and gives Iceland the option to choose what he wants. Iceland gets flustered and tells Norway that anything will do.

Sweet, thoughtful, sarcastic, and subtle, that’s just how Norway (t)rolls.

Baldies. That ep was so silly, here’s a stupid little sketch of the trio 😬

If I had a nickel for every time a ninja voiced by Ben Schwartz tried to sacrifice themselves by throwing themselves through a portal in order to stop a dangerous enemy & protect the people they care about, I’d have two nickels

Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice
