#Lice Hice

[theygender]

One thing I love about learning Spanish is that for the most part everything has very consistent rules and even when a word is irregular the irregularity is consistent. Like tener is an irregular verb with its own special conjugation rules, but any verb that ends with tener (obtener, retener, contener, etc) is conjugated the exact same way. Volver is irregular too but all verbs containing it (revolver, devolver, envolver, etc) will also be conjugated the same, and so on. And these are just verbs, I can't think of a single irregular noun in Spanish

English on the other hand, seems like it has absolutely no consistency. Some of our rules have so many exceptions that there are more words that break the rule than fit it ("i before e except after c" comes to mind) and our many irregularities almost never apply to other similar words

How is someone who's learning English as a second language supposed to remember that the past tense of rise is rose but the past tense of surprise is not surprose, or that the past tense of freeze is froze but the past tense of wheeze and breeze are not whoze and broze, or that the plural of goose is geese but the plural of moose is not meese, or that the plural of mouse is mice and the plural of louse is lice but the plural of house is not hice, or that for a few random words like deer and fish the plural is the exact same as the singular. What the fuck

[lily-of-the-flame]

The plural of mouse is mice. The plural of louse is lice. The plural of house is hice.

[the-rogues-abyss]

English

If the plural of mouse is mice, and the plural of louse is lice.... the plural of house should really be hice and the plural of spouse should be spice...

[dilact]

Mouse - mice

Louse - lice

Grouse - grice

Rouse - rice

House - hice

Spouse - spice

Dear roundpi,

There are currently two of your letters in the queue, and they’re right next to each other -- one to Apollo, and one to Klavier.  We can delete either or both of those if you’d like us to.  It’s hard to say how many letters are from the same people, but we definitely have a few consistent writers -- some who send them at least every other day.  (I can’t blame them, of course, since I used to do the same thing.)

Also, I honestly didn’t realize how changing one word in this blog’s name would give it the same initials as the Wright Anything Agency.  It’s too late to actually change it at this point, but that’s still pretty fun to think about.

Dear Anonymous,

Glad you brought this up, because that’s one of the last things we want to convey about ourselves or this blog.  Sexuality is a topic I generally try to steer away from when answering letters, partly because it’s one that I only have a limited understanding of and I want to avoid saying something that can be easily misinterpreted (again), and partly because it’s a fiercely debated topic, and I don’t want to perpetuate that debate here.

And partly because it’s a discussion I’ve rarely come out of without some serious sparks flying...

With that in mind, unless a character’s sexuality, political views, religion, etc. has been explicitly defined in the game(s) they’re from, we can only make our best guesses about them.  In Athena’s case, judging by what we’ve seen of her in the games (her reaction to Hugh O’Conner’s claim that she likes him, her history of getting love letters meant for Junie, etc.), she seems like a guy kind of girl to me.  There’s every chance that I’m wrong, of course -- in fact, she may not even know herself -- but I imagine that’s at least how she views herself.

...Woah, that got Persona-esque all of a sudden.

In any case, if anything we post here comes off as homophobic, you have my word that it isn’t meant to be.  We also don’t want to emphasize one headcanon over another (whether it’s mine, yours, the Modthorne’s, or the Mod’s), but sometimes we just have to pick one and stay consistent with it.  If it disagrees with yours, then it’ll just have to disagree, but that’s our reasoning behind it.

Dear Ethan Starbright,

Really?  Huh...  That was how it looked when I found it in the queue, so unless you’re thinking of a different letter, I have no idea how that happened.  Sorry.

Dear Director Hickfield,

I always assumed it was something the Mod came up with for Apollo’s hair.  I can check to see if it’s based on an actu--

I don’t feel so good...

Dear yuesworld,

Please do!  And thank you very much for helping to increase our audience’s scope this way.  It’s very considerate and humbling for us when someone offers to do something like that.  Much appreciated!

My physical response to this letter was way more emotional than that, by the way.  It looked something like this:

(Only without the hair-touching.)

Dear rogerthegg,

I didn’t realize who you were, actually.  Good on you for joining Tumblr!

I do my best to keep an open mind with how Capcom develops its characters, but if I were in charge of how Athena’s life and career continued on from Spirit of Justice, it’d probably be something along these lines:

We’d see her a few months after the events in Khura’in, looking as cheery and confident as ever, but slightly older and more mature-looking.  As we heard her voice narrating, she’d shove the doors of the courthouse open with a look of pure confidence, wave to the policemen as she climbed the stairs (being extra careful to watch her step), and wait for her moment to enter the courtroom.  She’d then walk up to the defense’s bench with a smile, slam her fist into her hand, and announce proudly, “The defense is ready to go, Your Honor!!”

Then Widget would ruin the mood by blurting out, “I’m so sleepy!”

During the trial, she’d learn that her defendant is from somewhere in Europe (whatever country you prefer), that he/she is a friend of her family there, and that some unusual things have been going on with them.  This would lead her to request a leave of absence so she can visit them, perhaps taking Phoenix or Simon along as a chaperone.  From there, she’d find herself in a series of new situations, including (but not limited to) having to defend a member of her family from murder charges, having Widget stolen from her and being forced to do a therapy session without him, discovering a hidden crime ring (that a member of her family might be involved in), and so on.  In the end, she’d come out of it with more knowledge about herself, being a lawyer, and holding on to her faith in others until the bitter end.

It could be that I’m just anxious to see what sort of people she’s related to and if they’re as wild and energetic as she is, but I’d also love to see how Athena handles herself in a new environment, especially one as culturally (and visually) diverse as Europe.  That’s just my idea of a good Athena-centered game, though -- I’m sure there are plenty of others out there that would be just as exciting to see.  I mean, it is the Cykester we’re talking about here.

Here are a couple of letters that I found particularly heartfelt, plus another that was heartfelt and silly at the same time.  There are plenty more that were written before I got here, of course, such as this one and this one.  I love how this blog gives us a chance to see how some touching non-canon character conversations might take place.

Dear Lice Hice,

You’re correct.  They’re called Happy-Happyists, which is probably the most ironic name possible for a cult that wanted to “paint the town blue.”  Or maybe that was on purpose.  Who knows?

The tag was actually referring to the cult of Athena, which apparently existed in different parts of ancient Greece.  I was completely unaware of the Aum Shinrikyo cult and the parallels that could be drawn between them and the one in Earthbound.  Sometimes truth really is stranger than fiction, isn’t it?

Dear Anon,

Dear Inferno,

Yep, it has the link in there.  Thanks for asking.

P. S. The Modthorne’s on vacation, in case you’re wondering.  She’ll be back next week!

[denimsnake]

whenever i see the word “spouses” there��s a split second where i think “wait, isn’t the plural form spice?” and then i realize it’s not, but it should be.

[awesomlyautistic]

If the singular of lice is louse, is the plural of house hice?

[shimyereh]

Oh, English. What is up with your plurality?      The plural form of “mouse” is “mice”; “louse”, “lice”. So: by a simple chain of logicality,      A pair of “house” should therefore be two “hice”. But no! we’re forced to face the sad reality      Of “houses”, which is somewhat less concise — Though more straightforward, sure. I guess a house is A thing that’s best kept clear of louses, mouses.

[snekatiemainy]

Guys I have a preposition

Mouse mice

Louse lice

House hice

Douse dice

Ouse ice

Rouse rice

Spouse spice

Blouce blice

[sinister-science-lesbian]

Mouse? Mice

Louse? Lice

House? thats right

Hice

[suzuonlineowo]

If the plural for louse is lice and mouse is mice, then shouldnt house be called hice?

Or is that too weird? Idk, just my random 4 am thought.

[eightfourone]

mouse mice

louse lice

spouse spice

house hice

[umnotcaroline]

okay another question okay Kellie underscore Sheridan one finally a great question how much vitamin C is too much yes sometimes too much vitamins is too much you always get these things on medical shows go on like should I take this supplement should I take this supplement and honestly you can get hypervitaminosis like if you go to G and C or some other stories they'll say like oh this you get like 2,000 percent of the recommended daily allowance of vitamin you know C you can actually get side effects and symptoms or GI symptoms from too much vitamins so it's probably good just to get like a hundred percent of the recommended daily allowance that's really all you need great question kelly sheridan i'm not supposed to pick favorites they told me not to the producer but you're my favorite bat petit macaron so it's like a weird skin tag under my eye that hurts when i rip it off what's up with that skin tag is a call to skin polyp in real life is render it can be anywhere along your body i think to rip off any lesion that you don't know about right under your eye I mean honestly I can't think of a more ill-advised stupid move than that they can numb up the area clip it off I've actually when I practice medicine someone had skin tags on their arm or extremities you could always freeze it off with liquid nitrogen and it doesn't hurt I highly recommend that you have a professional remove it professionally at captain handlebar ass now can we address the knee reflex tests at the doctor's office this has to be useless right no it's not useless we're not monkeys that use these just for props we're not the carrot top of doctors here and I can just show you right here this is a knee there's a tendon that connects the knee to the leg bone okay called the tibia there's a 10 in here you want to check the reflex of this you go oh let me just check that and what that does it's actually it checks really your whole nervous system in many ways to see that if your reflexes are intact low thyroid levels in your body which is very common called hypothyroidism you actually will be hyporeflexia and you would not be able to elicit much of a reflex so this sucker is very important okay don't mock our tools okay we're pros and we're sensitive emotionally mm-hmm-hmm busy so to ask how do you check your pulse good check it here you check it here even check it here on your leg a baby could tell you how to check a pulse oh no no you can't you can't ask any question on Twitter just don't defend shut up I'm sorry I see that it's just me Lois gotten the whole thing whatever okay moving on roogey Okubo says do I really need both my kidneys you know what that's part of the whole area of like kidney transplantation we've heard of people donating kidneys to other people in need who have kidney failure technically one can survive with just one kidney if it's as long as this normally functioning really good question hope I have more questions like this at Haley Nesbitt one says why do I always get cramps or spasms in my full leg newly every day hashtag ouch hashtag doctor help no sleep for me that I would definitely get checked out leg pain or leg spasm can be due to a multitude of things instead of saying what those hundred things are you actually need to see a physician for that to determine is it neurological a nation in nature is an inner penological
