this is a weird infodumping thing but i wanted to talk about the spanish version of wotww and what got changed in it!! :DDD please note parts of this contain spoilers to the game :) im gonna make this my pinned post so if u wanna skip it block the tag "windy screams about spanish nnk"
firstly, ding ding dell is called villa cascabel, which means town of jingle bells, which i thought was really cool :DDD when i sent it to my spanish gc they all said it reminded them of Christmas ajajaja
al-mamoon is called al-mugid! mugid translates to moo, which makes sense since the cowlipha is the ruler!! it made me realize al-maMOOn is a pun LMFAOOO,, also, the cowlipha is called vacalifa lola :D
castaway cove's name is bikini port, which i thought was. weird DBDJWIWKSKKS,,
the fairyground is changed to verbena, which means fair!!! also, the little text under the name of the town when you first come in calls it a barbaric party which makes me laugh!! i think it's very cute!! speaking of the fairyground, the fairy godmother is renamed mamá montaña, which means mountain mom!! i love that name for her sm DNDJSJSKSK
they use accents for the characters in the subtitles which was weird? like i sent a screenshot to my friend who is fluent in spanish of something drippy said and she said it had an accent? which is most likely due to his welsh accent, but she couldn't even understand it fully!!! also pea has a really child-like accent in the subtitles - words are misspelled and she messes up her words a lot (for example, she calls oliver olived, si is spelled ci, and es is spelled ez)
speaking of pea, they also changed the names of some characters!! cassiopeia was renamed cassandra and pea was renamed sandra, for some reason? it makes me feel weird because it sounds like the name of an old lady, and pea is so young 😭 also, esther is renamed estela (which means star), Swaine is called Jairo (which is also his name in Japanese, I believe? I'm too lazy to look it up DNDJJDDK) and all the other main characters kept their real names :PP
Tumblr media
ALSO!!! drippy is no longer a fairy, he is now a goblin in the spanish version!! i was. very freaked out at this and mad >:(( they really do be slandering drippy.. also, his title of lord high lord of the fairies is translated to the grandmaster of the goblins >:)
also, instead of calling Oliver a crybaby bunting, he calls oliver llorica, which can be crybaby or weepy depending on the context, or pipiolo, which means youngster, but the pipi at the beginning resembles the sound of a chick according to one of my spanish friends, which is probably also calling him a baby DNSNSJMS
also, instead of jeepers, oliver will say caracoles, which means snails!! i thought that was really cute SBHSJS
mornstar is called Estrella de Alba, which directly translates to "the morning star", and evanstar is Estrella de Ocaso, which means "the sunset star"!! it's very basic, but I thought its cool :D
uhhhhh,,,, yeah i think that's it LSLSMSKSKKS
if you guys are wondering what the names of anything specific was changed to please tell me!! i didn't watch the whole video just some clips of it, i am definitely not fluent in spanish, and i may be forgetting some stuff DBDJSJSK

helloooo! a little late, but better late than never! how you been? 💙
just passing by to continue our small talk around here ! welp my bias right now is kyuhyun, i love him so much, but also i have a soft spot for hae & teuk 😭 i think elf tumblr is kinda small, i do get happy if i see elfs here lol i joined in 2ya2yao, my first comeback ever! i don’t know if you answered before too, but what about your bias or when did you join the fandom?
thank you so much ! hope you like the recs or my fics 💙 i also found some old blogs, like old blogs from like 10 years ago HAHAHAHA i’ll add them too on the fics recs. that’s how obssessed i am, i need serious help, someone assist me.
i’ve been relaxing and taking a break recently, thank you dear! hope you’re great as well!  💙
Hello Elf-Bot! Never mind about being late here - everything happens in its right time.
I've been well~ I took the weekend off to work through some stress and burnout. I'm much better now and already back to writing! How about you, lovely? Was your weekend relaxing?
Oh! You'll fit right in with the overlapping biases. To quote Cherry anon:
We now have a mini elf fam 🥺🥺 we got a leeteuk/ryeowook biased, a donghae/zhoumi biased and now a kyu/eunhyuk biased (me 🕺💃 also biased leeteuk and zhoumi)
And now we have another Kyuhyun biased, with a dash of TeukTeuk and Hae! Sharing is caring it seems.
Oh!! 2ya2yao! What a fun comeback to join the fandom with! [Immediately gets the song stuck in my head - damn SuJu, why most every song be such a banger 😭]
How did you like Mango? I just feel like it's certified iconic in my heart. Idk, maybe that's just me... but it has, like, the vibe of Mamacita and Sexy, Free and Single in that it will always be that bxtch, y'know??
Short answer: My first SuJu MV that I watched around release was either Black Suit or Lo Siento!
Long answer: The issue for me when it comes to remembering first MVs and comebacks and what got me into a group is that I just let YouTube recommend me things and then I watched it all out of pure fascination whilst also letting Spotify (back when I used to use it) feed me music at work. So I didn't know what was new or old - I just consumed. I can tell you the exact moment I fell in love with EXO (because I originally dismissed their vocals omg this is my shame) and I can explain the feeling certain older songs give me because Spotify used to suck and just play the same few BigBang, BoA, and SuJu songs for me over and over and now those songs are interwoven into my memories, perfectly sliced out images and sounds that play on loop when I reminisce. But overall... that period of time was a mess of me absorbing any and all kpop I could get my grubby little hands on. Black Suit definitely pushed me along that path to stanning, especially after the negative Reddit / online posts about SuJu that originally deterred me. And still to this day it holds a very special place in my heart ♡ as does Bonamana because of Spotify!
Ahem... sorry, I rambled >.<
Anyway my bias is Leeteuk but Ryeowook is in my ult top 10 biases, if that makes sense 😭
Hehehe, we love to see it tho!! It's awesome when you find a band that's been around for awhile because you have a lot more content to consume! I'm always on top of new debuts and releases these days so even if I got into one of them, there would be nothing to watch or read. Sometimes it's better to go back to older groups and just enjoy a steady, dedicated fandom that has stuck with them through high and low.
Stay shining lovely! Sending you good vibes~
[Omg this is so long, I'm SORRY T_T]

So I clearly played myself *sigh* some of this books weren't what I expected and I still need to read a shit ton of sequels to series i fricken loved.
1.-Marked (House of Night #1) by PC Cast /Kirstin White
🌟🌟
So clearly I knew this book was gonna be silly and stuff, like it got me cringing so hard at all those 'not like the other girls' super speshul girl and it has low key a lot of cultural appropiation, so yeah, still was a really quick read and what the heck I'll try the next one to see if it gets better than this. I mean there has to be a reason why someone wants to turn this into a tv series right??
2.-Día de Muertos: Antología del cuento mexicano de V.A
🌟🌟🌟
Realmente siento que es una antología muy inconexa, el título y la portada indican claramente una relación directa entre los relatos y el día de Muertos, sin embargo el espíritu de la festividad solo es capturado en un puñado de historias que es lo que me hizo dar tres estrellas al libro, porque aunque el resto de los cuentos no son malos siento que entraron a la antología con calzador pues no tenían nada que ver con día de muertos .
3.- Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman
🌟🌟🌟
Ok, I did not disliked it, the book manages to be very atmospheric and really create some plausibility among all the whimsy but the characters were never really developed much?? And some were tragically underused (the Aunts) I just think the movie made the story/characters much better.
4.- Society of Wishes (Quartet of Wishes #1) by Elise Kova
🌟🌟
I had totally forgot I owned this book (I bought it cuz I knew the MC was a latina girl and yah) and well it is what it is, just a mess filled with hunky ass time wizards or some shit like that with barely any plot, development or much of anything really, definitely not reading the next ones.
5.-Hemlock Grove by Brian McGreevy
🌟🌟
I am heart broken, I wanted to like this book so badly, but it was all over the place imho, the narrative style was plain out confusing at times (like it threw me back to that time when I was a pretentious ass 15 yo trying to read Ulysses by James Joyce) and don't get me wrong I like writers who spice things up with the flow of their sentences like Chuck Palahniuk but I just couldn't get into it, I feel the series managed to tell this story in a much more organized and in depth fashion.
6.- Vampire Academy (Vampire Academy #1) by Richelle Mead
🌟🌟🌟
I expected nothing of this, and I actually kinda enjoyed it because I think the book it's true to itself, it sets a tone from the beginning and doesn't deviate from it . Is it predictable? As fuck Is it full of every single trope under the sun? YUP, but it never pretends otherwise and it's fine (also I am a thot for vampires so idc) I will continue this series.
7.-Battle Royale by Koshun Takami
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I LOVED it, I had watched the movie, but oh boy it doesn't build the characters the way the book does. It's brutal, dynamic full of optimism even in such a hopless horrific situation. The only thing that kinda had me in stiches was the fact that nearly every damn female character wanted to get it on with Shuuya.
8.- Tale of the Body Thief (Vampire Chronicles #4) by Anne Rice
🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is my frist re-read of this book and damn, Lestat is truly a himbo, he just makes the most idiotic desisions and then is upset because they come to bite him in the ass but he is also kinda charming so what the hell?? David, poor summer child he really thought Lestat would respect his desision 😂😂 this is a real fun book (I mean the whole ass discussion about Faust is as fake deep as u can get) and it really drives home how much of a hot mess is Lestat. (Also Louis u bitch!!! How dare u betray him it's not like u had tried to kill him before multiple times xD honestly Lestat's logic)
9.-The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I adored this, the atmosphere Neil created in this book is absolutely beautiful, every detail and character Bod meets in the cementary adds so much to a rather simple story, the world building, the sense of magical realism it's just something I always appreciate in Neil's books, this really has become one of my faves and I will try and re-read this very soon.
10.-Dracul by Dacre Srocker
🌟🌟🌟🌟
I was on the fence about this one, like Dracula is one of my all time favorite books, and when I found out his great grand nephew was writing a precuel of Bram's most famous work I felt it was an easy money-grab scheme but then I heard a lot of positive reviews and people started talking how this book gives a back story to one of Dracula's brides and that it was based on some notes Bram left behind I decided to try it, and I don't regret it. I mean it wasn't what I expected, the book is more historical fiction and Dacre tries perharps a little too hard to emulate Bram's writing style/structure but the plot really managed to trap me and it was quite an intresting story.
11.-Bone Music by Christopher Rice
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is the frist book I read from him (like even tho I like her books a lot i don't fucks with Anne Rice cuz she is awful to anyone who critisizes her books or tries to write fanfic of em so yeah I wasn't so keen in reading her son's work) but it was a very pleasant surprise, those twist he makes at the very beginning of the book left me gaping like a fish, I was emotionally involved with the characters and I definitely look forward to read more books on the Burning Girl series.
12.- Final Girls - Riley Sager
🌟🌟🌟🌟
Slashers are some of my favorite things in the world, and this book gets a lot of the tropes/atmosphere right and still, manages to be original and deconstruct them, turn the reader on his expectations and deliver a great ending, will definitely continue with the series.
13- Hidden Bodies by Caroline Kepnes
🌟🌟🌟🌟
Joe Goldberg is a punk ass bitch and I hope the ending stays as it was, like how lucky is this bastard, and at one point I was like, no way are all this people around him so dumb likeeeeeee he is such an unreliable narrator that idk if the things he say are really happening or all is part of his self important delusional mind, I really liked this sequel even if Joe barely struggled until the end (he was living the Life u guys) it was a fun read.
14- The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie
🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is Hercule Poirot's frist book, and he is so different from the books I have read, but still brilliant and with his quirks, it really captured me, I always enjoy a good murder mystery and Agatha Christie always delivers.
15.- The Girl who Loved Tom Gordon by Stephen King
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
King is back in my good graces, this book is terrifying it really takes u along Trisha's emotional journey, all the desperation, the defeat,the hope, really is such a complex beautiful emotional ride of this amazingly brave little girl, and damn Stephen u can write female character's well y u wrote that mess in Bag of Bones like whyyy dude? ?? I simply loved this one, made me cry so much.
16.-#Murdertrending by Gretchen McNeil
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This was such a fun dynamic read, I finished it in one sitting. The whole concept of Alcatraz 2.0 was pretty darn great, the painiacs, ahhh so good, I wished the rest of the characters apart from Dee were more developed but I know it would have given the plot twist away if they had so it's fine, I am really looking forward to reading Murderfunding.
That was it, my reads were either meh or omgggg I loved it!!! I hope this months my reads are all good.
