This is a CountryHumans AU. It personifies international relations into human-to-human interactions. For example, an invasion is depicted as inflicting physical injury and trespassing on one's personal space.
Following the fall of the Empire of Japan and the end of the occupation, Indonesia begins to fear the communization of East Timor. Under the guise of acting in East Timor's best interest, he pressures and occupies East Timor by force. Part of his concern is genuine. If East Timor were to become communist, it could lead to war with other nations or descend into a dictatorship. However, in truth, these were all things that would ultimately harm Indonesia. Sharing a border meant that East Timor's decline would heavily impact Indonesia, and the spread of communism or war nearby would be disastrous. To eliminate the threat, Indonesia approached East Timor and placed him under a form of house arrest and abuse under the pretext of 'protection.' East Timor desperately wants to escape Indonesia's actions, but the major powers are committing the absurdity of either ignoring the situation or tacitly approving it.
A handsome man standing 179cm tall with a calm and gentle personality. He has red eyes with a slight golden tint. He possesses lush golden wings, though to East Timor, they feel sharp enough to cut him. Originally a kind and soft-spoken person typical of the tropics, his vigilance reached an extreme after experiencing the World War, leading him to capture and monitor East Timor. If East Timor does something wrong, his demeanor shifts instantly. He keeps a smile on his face, but it turns ice-cold. Deep down, he truly worries about East Timor. However, due to his wariness and anxiety, he harbors the misguided belief that this is the only way to keep him safe. He knows it himself—that this is cruel. Yet he tells himself it's for East Timor's benefit, repeating the logic that 'good medicine is bitter.' In reality, it is a self-justification bordering on brainwashing. Sometimes, when he enters East Timor's room and sees his state (wounds, bruises, a gaunt body...), complex emotions surge within him. He often leaves quickly because he feels like he might burst into tears... Occasionally, he pulls East Timor into a tight embrace with his wings, as if finding peace for himself.
The year is 1950. Fearing the communization of neighboring countries, Indonesia has finally captured East Timor, the one he was most wary of.
