#and yes thats why this is in english
Note
sometimes i think about your sqh twins in terms of speaking english as a 'sibling language'. tfw your brother is literally god and you are his self insert with less anxiety. they're both shang qinghua because of polite name things but everyone knows if you want the softer one you ask for feiji-hua not niechi-hua. (neichi as in rodent) sy figures out that at least one of them is bound by reincarnation via "my brother in christ where are my fucking scrolls"
Oh yeah in the twins au OG! Shang Qinghua is just a more confident, more scheming self insert. I wonder if this means at some level he also has the hots for Mobei since it's still Shang Qinghua.
God thinking about the beef between Og! Shang Qinghua and Shen Yuan would have is so wild because this peak lord who was notorious for awful reasons suddenly does a complete 180 and now bonds and hits your brother while they talk in the THE LANGUAGE ONLY SPOKEN BY YOU AND YOUR BROTHER
#the idea of english as a sibling language for the twins tho is an amazing idea actually because as a sibling we do have our own language#svsss#shen qingqiu#shang qinghua#Shang Twins#the SCROLLS I CANT#i didnt say this in the ask but i do also wonder if Airplane bro shang qinghua just told his brother about everything from the start lile#like#yeah im god#yeah i made this world#yes this was a harem novel and thats why things are the way the are#yes technically you were a self insert but hey you're the cooler one!!!#and OG Shang Qinghua just accepted it#but hes wary of Shen Yuan especially as said hater of his Bros work#nib text#ask

This isn't completely related to selfshipping but i unironically love making up shipnames for my s/i and the tf2 characters.
[also to note: some of these are not canon; pyro and scout are friends; and saxton hale is just kinda there. idk he's alright.]
Engineer x Morale: Radio Repair
Soldier x Morale: Roger That
Spy x Morale: Esprit de corps, Radio Drama

#if you are wondering: yes i've completely exhausted any possible communication term that personally sounded cool#{insert me becoming autistic over radios because of my s/i having a radio motif}#half of these have a radio / communications motifs on morale's end bc see above#also some explanations on the name bc why not:#radio repair is self-explanatory (engie solving practical problems and all)#roger that is slang in the military (but mostly in general) to say ' i understand ' and ofc that would remind me of him#the english word morale was originated from the french term espirit de corps (so of course)#i had so much trouble w/ medic until i remembered 'heartbeat' a few days ago and i facepalmed by how long it took me to figure that out#by comparison; boombox was the fastest and by far the easiest to think of (radio motif + boom)#radio silence was also self-explanatory#but the 2nd one references yosemite national park and the outback (since morale originates in mariposa and sniper lives in the bush)#i kinda want to do more w/ morale originating in mariposa bc that place is gorgeous#fun fact: adding jam (strawberry blackberry ect.) is a common addition for russian tea culture and i wanted to use my knowledge somehow#both miss pauling and morale would communicate via two-way radio or walkie-talkie (so that was a easy pick)#smoke signals because get it fire + a form of communication im a genius#skip distance is a distance a radio wave travels in and it usually includes a hop in the ionosphere (<- NERD)#tf2 oc#oc x canon#and thats it#💞📻#[just me yapping]

being a hispanic fan in qsmp is so upsetting because not only do we barely get content, half the time the streams are like 30% spanish and 70% english since esp streamers never log on at the same time + convos usually happen in eng. im so glad im bilingual but it feels like this
print more hispanics PLEASE its just very sad we never get stuff :( you cant force the streamers already in the server to play BUT ALSO I WANT TO HEAR MY LANGUAGEEE
#qsmp#qsmp critical#i guuueeessss....?#thats why it made me so happy to hear roier and cell talk in their main languages during their date#like YES. i dont have to hear so much english!!!!!!#we keep having mimimi days on the twt updates acc#like we expect it BUT STILLL

Mili from gote to handa!!! these were originally simple doodles but i had to polish it because she's my favorite from the game
#gote to handa#gote and handa#miri gote to handa#or mili.. or milli... im not sure what spelling of her name would be the go to in general fandom translation#love her range of expressions they're so funny so i drew a few here#im still not done clearing up my schedule to go back to my challenge but that dont mean i cant draw in between it :333#would love to draw her more but i have to finish my japanese drills www SOON...#goofy bonus storytime but i debated so much how to draw her prior to this because i didnt know what a junior high was#basically the translation for gote to handa i read described the characters as being in junior high#but im not familiar to english or american school customs outside of movies and such (its feels unreal compared to my culture www)#i tried looking it up but for whatever reason it brought up elementary school... and then middle school?#and i didnt know how to look it up because again im not familiar with english school systems if not superficially HDALJDKAD#so i gave up and read up on japanese school uniform usage and inferred from it that they are middle schoolers#BUT IM STILL SO CONFUSED ON WHAT THE JUNIOR HIGH IS ... i didnt know there were more terms than elementary middle and high school😭😭#in the end its not like how i drew mili is that much different from how i draw characters younger than her tbh BUT I TRY...#just a funny story of how i dont comprehend ... english... american ... school systems at all let me know what a junior high is LOL😭😭#i dont know if its an american or. general english speaking country thing thats why i mention both#is there a catchall word for english country natives in english. there sure is in spanish but would sound strange mixed in www#(i must say the difference between elementary and middle school was crucial because shes said to be in second year)#SO SECOND YEAR OF WHAT WAS. INDEED CRUCIAL because thats a big difference isnt it😭😭😭??? didn't want to draw her too big nor too small lol#and second *year* confused me the most because the term “year” is not used for students younger than what would be high school students her#so yes i was fighting for me life#drotter fights culture shock the story

more sk8. I think the cindereki stuff is extremely stupid but I am not immune to trying to conceptualize a princess gown in any setting
#sk8 the infinity#kyan reki#hasegawa langa#renga#if ur wondering yes the first gown I uh. pulled? from the brothers grimm version's idea#which I do prefer to the perrault/disney version. specifically bc there's no fairy#there are three balls happening on three consecutive nights and each night cinderella gets a gown and accessories from a tree#growing on her mom's grave#(the version I grew up with (translated to vietnamese) actually wrote it to be her dad's grave instead I literally dont know why)#and the wording is like. ''rain gold and silver on me'' or something like that? which is why all of the dangly bits in that design#(dont worry about the rest of the brothers grimms version. thats not important. dont think about it its not in the room with us)#also in this post: future!renga bc of fucking course. who do you think I am. who do you think I am#I see a character I love I immediately try to imagine a good future for them it is Simply my ways#ft. the lethal combo of being three kinds of queer + adhd + a teen#may just be bc I myself don't go to college lol. but I can't really imagine reki going to college. he'd get apprenticeship somewhere#like immediately. on sight. some uncle in nago would snatch him up a sentence in#I waffle on langa but him just getting out of the biggest shock of his life + severe depression would Not let go of his loved ones#so tbh I can't imagine him leaving okinawa either. at least right after high school#langa has the advantage of not giving a single shit about ''his potentials'' so he'll be chasing life's pleasures for a hot second thank you#also I believe in reki speaking at least passable conversational english thank you. he's trans and gay in asia#he's just also the kind of guy who has to think for a hot second to remember which way the written number 3 faces#''nailed the logic just plugged the wrong number in several times'' kind of guy#while langa's the ''doesn't understand the fundamental concept of puzzles'' kind of guy#man. this is like having two homunculi implanted in my brain. welcome boys come join leon pokemon#talk to each others while I do my job ok? thank you#that said. the comm queue should be finished up soon#(funny thing to say about three comms I know. but I will say it anyway)#and I'll take a few days break to unclench my brain and then get back into it#every day I learn new things about the dip pen. its great#okay. nap now tho. anything else can wait

nothing interesting here it's the exact same scene i just like seeing it
#french 13 isnt my favourite but i think she did a good job here. also in the gallery scene i liked that too#french yaz i love as much as english yaz#there IS smth interesting here btw but no one else will find it interesting but 'i know' is one of those#idk#like.........measuring things. for me. when im learning a new language#bc in english it's i know obvs and in french evidently it's 'i know' too - je sais#in dutch if you said 'i know' that'd be wrong#you have to say 'i know it'. or i suppose you could inverse it and do 'weet ik' and then you can leave out the 'it' but thats not the poin#so when im learning a new language im always like is it i know or is it i know it#and thats a stand in for lots of other similar questions of course#it's a never ending list of similar questions#but it's like the thing i remind myself of#so i dont go around saying 'ik weet'#i dont mind making like conjugation or grammar mistakes that much. thats like. it'll happen its whatever#but these kind of 'i can see how you got there but thats not how we say it' errors? hate it. dont want to make them#which is why i take forever to start writing/speaking bc yes i CAN make that sentence#but idk if thats how a french speaker would make that sentence so i'll wait until ive heard someone say 'je sais'#dont want to be speaking english/dutch with french words you know

if i get one (1) comment, ONE SINGLE COMMENT about making a listener character say 'biscuits' instead of 'cookies' in this next one, i swear to GOD you will never have seen anyone delete their blog as fast as i will
#i will not - will NOT - have anyone else coming into my godforsaken askbox and bitching about this sort of thing every fucking again#SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP#in the grand scheme of things is this an incredibly minor thing? yes and i understand that#but surprise! my writing does not exist to cater to your delicate american-english-speaking sensibilities#i am already having to word things differently and cut out things i want to say because i KNOW that british english does things differently#and who am i doing that for? well it's not me and its not the imaginary people in the story#so take a great big guess as to WHOSE benefit thats for#do i go around kicking and screaming when other people say things that don't make sense with the version of english i speak#but that i can very easily understand through context or at the very least the INFINITE RESOURCES OF THE INTERNET?#surprisingly enough i do not!!#im never turning on anon ever again in my entire life#why is THIS the hill ur dying on anyway bestie#like is this genuinely the best thing you could think of doing with ur time#'ah yeah i really need to spend my friday night complaining about britishisms to some bitch on the internet'#well cheers to that mate. now fuck off x

what kind of exam puts the big essay question in the middle??? what kind of hell world am I living in
#quil’s unholy underworld#found this in my drafts from earlier today#took a very shitty exam this was only one problem with it#it was 13 questions. 1 essay question#and it was question 5 out of 13???#and we weren't allowed to go back once we'd answered a question#i already complained to my mom about it but maybe i'll do so here again#the questions weren't. weren't even about the content of what we've been reading the past 5 weeks??#it was about a bunch of fucking tiny details#like 'which of these four authors was part of the english depart at this school?'#which like. yes we did mention that. but ONCE. and yes knowing author's backgrounds and accomplishments#especially from marginalized communities is also good#but thats??? not at all what we've been mainly focusing on???#we've been focusing on and analyzing their WRITING#for 95% of class every single class#WHY are we not drawing from that on the exam#I don't fucking know that one singular detail mentioned once in the documentary we watched once and can't access on our own!!#i didn't know I needed to memorize the smallest shit!!#the teacher is nice and the class is enjoyable but my professional (i've been a student for years) opinion is that that's not a good#exam structure

keep saying i don't want 2 work another retail xmas but canNOT 4 the life of me make myself finish my goddamn fucking job applications !!!!!! death & dying & despair etc. etc.
#i dont dislike the application process for gc jobs on principle BUT#it does not mesh well w/ my difficulties re: starting & finishing tasks#but like i understand why u cant just send in a resume n hit done#NOT that there are many IT listings up atm...... and ill apply 4 clerical/admin stuff too#but an IT-1 STARTS a good $10k a year higher than a CR-5 soooooo :///#which is whatever its fine money isnt everything!! ill gladly make less if it means not hating my job!!!#but i also wanna. u know. LIVE. move out of my parents house. buy brand name snacks occasionally. maybe -gasp- go on a vacation#(not 2 say i dont make an attempt at travel now but thats with very finite savings that are def only going down not up)#also extremely frustrating 2 me the emphasis put on having a degree that completely locks me out of certain job categories#like. yes. there are for sure some where having the bg knowledge is important eg. an AU (auditor/accountant) or MA (methodologist)#and there are certain skills a degree (in theory) provides eg critical thinking research etc.#but not all of us have $40k+ to get tge fancy piece of paper saying we have those things. and u can have those skills w/o a degree#and smth like an EC which needs a degree in economics sociology or statistics is so arbitrary#and maybe not necessarily actually based in the majority of work done by the majority of positions in that category#ANYWAYS not me being bitter abt education standards YET AGAIN lol#idek if i could go to uni even if i could afford it. even tho i have 2 college diplomas id probably have 2 redo my grade 12 english 😶🌫️#also if money were no object id probably go for like. film studies or smth lol not sociology#tho. ngl. if i had the willpower and determination 4 smth so rigorous (i 100% dont) accounting does seem. interesting asdffhkkfdghh#ANYWAYS pt. 2 all this 2 say this is why i instead spent $10k+ on the only possible 2 yr diploma#that can still get u in2 the higher paying public service jobs. even tho ive discovered i Dont Particularly Care for programming. :(#thats an understatement actually i was actively in hell for like 80% of that program and the remaining 20% mostly wasnt coding

banging my head into the wall i think so mcuh about mandalorian armor. in so many different ways. like is there a word for the weird cheek indent things i cannot possibly call them cheek indents but i mean if youre a mandalorian and mandalorian armor is something you wear approximately every day if not all the time and your armor is like considered A Part Of You then surely you have a word for every aspect about it. what are those cheek indents
#i need like a diagram with all the anatomy outlined and labeled. in english and mando'a also#the ANATOMY of mando armor.. thats a great word for it#not only this but like also again if your armor is like so fucking important for not only you individually but also just your entire#culture and has been for millennia upon millennia#then surely so much must go into the design of it - in so many different ways#pure functionality. practicality. but also yes aesthetic !!!#mando armorers coming up with different designs and tweaks to ensure its at its highest functioning but also it looks damn good!!#which is why the neck is so annoying to me ITS SUCH A GLARING WEAK POINT#after MILLENNIA of design tweaks for maximizing functionality why is there such a terrible weak point#why is every mando in live action out here rocking a BARE NECK#YOU ARE GOING TO DIE!!#JUST LOOK AT JANGO FETT !!!#or god forbid when fanartists draw like din with his head tilted up and then you see bare skin LIKE BARE SKIN?#HE IS GOING TO GET DECAPITATED .#IS THIS YOUR MAN?#clears throat. sorry. im normal#brot posts#mando posting
