a couple years in the future, but not many...

colour key: blue = english spoken red = norwegian/norse spoken black text = language being masked by english so you can still read. see the borders for actual language. purple borders = norwegian/norse accented english (it's blue tinted by red) orange borders = whatever bat's accent is. while speaking norwegian (it's red tinted by yellow)

i am very normal about languages <3

#oh hello dazzo #🦇 morten #🦇 einarr #low stakes 🦇#07 the green one #📕 there has been a timeskip #🖐️ damien #gonna change the title of that chapter later somehow #once it's more clear what's going on in it #don't worry about morten's sidetails #much like einarr's hair it grows back to their normal length #and they might have been playing with scissors in between panels DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT #also yeah mort learned british english in school. so did i. and my brother.#england is geographically closer to norway so our teachers focused on that #if i've spoken english to you irl just assume mort's accent sounds something like that #meanwhile who knows what the hell is going on with einarr's language he's a thousand years old so naturally it's kind of a mess #he learned english in a time when thou/thee/thine was still a thing #so his english is actually much weirder than what i'd normally write #rune mostly speaks norwegian. he's not very good at english. he went hibernating in 1995 and english wasn't as commonly used daily yet #so when he woke up and everyone around him suddednly knew english fluently?? he's like. what the hell #in the few years since then he hasn't really gotten much better at english #he doesn't have a child's brain that absorbs languages like a sponge anymore. he knows norwegian and super basic english and that's it #and that's why he just nopes out of the scene #not dealing with an american today!!#and bat grew up with several different languages around him so i haven't quite figured out his linguistic situation yet #he did figure out norwegian rather easily though #mort talked a lot #ok this is getting long. thank you for coming to the Bonus Contents In The Tags i appreciate you
