oh and also please don't start any pfannkuchen/krapfen/berliner discourse, it's annoying, thanks <3

i know at this point i shouldn't be surprised at nationalism- but why is it so obvious in the wikipedia/google intro blurb of bicultural & multicultural celebrities.

It feels extremely silly that only today did I realize that pantry and panadería are slightly similar-sounding for a reason >_>

(The English word pantry is one of the many, many common modern English words derived from Anglo-French: in this case, panetrie, from Old French paneterie, "bread room" ... Spanish panadería also has a complex etymology, but all are related to Latin panis, "bread.")

Jenson and mark watching seb using his biggest plushie in his collection to get off, their hands guiding his hips slowly and letting it fell into a rhythm.

Seb shuts his eyes tightly, not sure whether its because of the that pleasure he's trying to focus or the eyes of his plushies and his two boyfriends staring at him. It's embarassing but he can feel himself becoming more sensitive with every second.

Jenson traces his back, making shapes and leaving feathery touches to seb's body while mark forces and eye contact with the german boy. "Beautiful," he whispered, his eyes growing dark and seb quickens his pace.

Seb whines, begging for more, its not enough mark please do something and his hips stutters when jenson pushed him, face planted, down to his bed. His sweater, mark's sweater, revealed his boxer. Dark patch formed and they cooed at seb when a sniffle came out from him.

"You made a mess sebby. Poor mr.whale all dirty because of you," mark mocked and provoked him, making seb bites his bottom lip in embarassment. His hand tries to cover his lower half but mark caught it before he could do so.

"Oh no seb. You dont have to be embarassed. We've already seen all of you," he reminded and seb moan when jenson palms his clothed cock.

He's grinding now. Seb used jenson's hand to reach his climax and mark brushed the hair covering his face. His eyes glazed with tears and he looked at jenson with his doe eyes, lips parted as he lets out small noises, one that can only be heard by them, and jenson has never been so hard before.

I actually had a good bit of sympathy, just on a human level, for Sandra's French husband in Anatomy of a Fall riiiiiight up until the moment he complained about her being "linguistically selfish" or whatever the fuck he said because they had to speak English to communicate. Motherfucker, she is GERMAN.

once again begging fanfic writers to not include dialogues in a language they don't speak. Like, either your readers don't understand the language, which means they are missing parts and bits of the story, or some of the readers happen to speak that language and have to suffer through unintelligible gibberish.

Sometimes, too, the grammar itself is okay but the dialogues are too formal, or not formal enough for the situation, and it breaks the whole flow.

I know I sound mean, and at the end of the day you're entitled to do whatever you want, but it's a genuine advice. You can just write the dialogue in English (or whatever language you write in) and point out that the characters are speaking another language through italics, or just by saying so ( e.g. "That's not a good idea," XYZ said in Italian.)

And if you really feel like your fic needs to have dialogues in a foreign language (which is valid), reach out to natives (or anyone fluent in that language). Because unfortunately, while websites like reverso or deepl can make so pretty grammatically correct sentences, they can't quite catch the right level of (in)formality needed for your specific context. (Like, you'll get your characters speaking to their parents or friends in the same tone they'd speak to their boss, which doesn't really translate well.)

just watched the bl & chill interview and it's just so delightful to see how much more confident joong has gotten speaking english compared to the hidden agenda era interviews from a year and a half ago. like, he still gets a little shy sometimes or switches to thai for some stories/explanations, but still, he's sooo much more talkative now in english, it's sweet

someone write a fic abt fig and kristen meeting for a moment as kids and kristen being so full of confusion and uncertainty—having never seen an elf (still living with/in the “alarm system”) but also—towards uber confident, magnetic little fig running up to ask her to play. two little girls in completely different lives that’ll both be turned upside down years from then, in ways they’d never ever consider for themselves; two little girls who are destined to become (adopted/step/half?) sisters, priestesses of duel and dumb in love gods, and also incredibly lesbian, who for today are just two strangers reaching for something they won’t understand for years. kristen’s parents pulling her away, sandra lynn maybe distracted on a bench, or maybe silently watching her daughter introduce herself to her future daughter. or whatever idc

to be clear, I'm a long-time follower, I'm sorry that people are being weird on your innocent post, and I don't think anything that comes from USSR and Russia should be treated with no respect at all... but USSR is kind of like Nazi Germany. The analogy makes a lot of sense. Especially for Eastern and Central Europeans who were caught between the two during WWII.

they have similarities but I really dont think they should be treated as equal
