only writing my oc in 2nd person perspective because thyme doesn't use any pronouns but "you, me, and various terms for lagomorphs"
#its not like its impossible to write thyme in 3rd person but it does take a bit more effort to make sentences referring to thyme sound like#normals sentences#i think the english language is really fascinating in a way because pronoun customizing is like. only here cause of how we use pronouns#like in chinese the third person pronouns sound all the same. theres no vocal distinction but there is a written one#他(he)她(she)它(it/its)#though 她 actually didnt exist until western influences so :))) thanks for that :)))))))#there's also X也 and TA which are used as gender neutral pronouns.#and 祂 and 牠 which like. one of these is meant for gods and the other is for animals. cool neos amiright#and they all sound the same. they're all TA.#but english theres a bigger culture with introducing pronouns in person because there's distinct sounds and its a bigger deal#there's no verbal corrections youll have to make aside from gendered terms like sister or brother and such#and you know like how people make fun of neo pronouns like haha they use nya/nyaself. uhm. other languages do that.#in particular chinese you can refer to yourself in third person or as “this one”. you can talk of a person using only their name and itll#never sound strange. youll sound fancier but like. british people already constantly sound like royalty about to conolize another country#uh i forgot what this tangent was about
