The swan princess, Odette!
I grew up watching this movie, I’ve always loved the transformation animation, it was just so pretty and I really wanted to try getting the same beauty in my drawing. Not sure I did it justice, but I am actually super proud of this one.

Do kinda think that Fig should multi class into sorcerer as well so that she can answer “Which charisma based caster are you?” With “Y e s.”
#fantasy high#dimension 20#figeroth faeth#right now it would probably save time to just say Yes Minus Sorcerer#less syllables than I’m a Warlock Bardadin

Do you think Siffrin would be good at the board game ”In other words”? bc he always has to describe another word each time they forget it in vaugardian
I'm finding a couple different games with the same name on google, but this one is popping up the most:
In this game, players move around the board and solve puzzles in one of six categories: Movies and Television, Terms, Quotes & Sayings, Literature, Cliches & Expressions, or Music. The puzzles are in the form of phrases that have to be translated into the actual saying on the card. For example, the movie "Away With the Breeze" is "Gone With the Wind", and the book "The Victor's Ring" is "The Winner's Circle".
Which I think would... vary wildly. Like sometimes they'd be totally clueless even though they should know it, it's just on the tip of their tongue but also totally out of reach. But sometimes they're just like oh yeah of course I know this obscure Poterian orchestral piece, there's not really any other direction you could go with that clue..?
I do think this game wouldn't be as bad for them as other trivia games, because there's an actual strategy you can use to jog your mind instead of just sitting there clueless: start running through synonym combinations! And I do see what you mean about Siffrin having experience doing that, lol. But that doesn't necessarily mean they'll be able to come up with the right synonym...
Idk if it's supposed to be played with teams but I'm sure the crew would anyway, so I think Siffrin would do well paired with someone who knows lots of words, so they can list synonyms until Siffrin's like OH that one!!
I would put Mirabelle vs Isabeau on opposite teams since they'd both have a normal amount of knowledge of Vaugardian pop culture, and big vocabularies from reading. And then Siffrin vs Odile because they're less familiar with Vaugardien, and Odile's better at some categories and Siffrin at others. And then kids generally aren't very good at these games because they don't have as big a knowledge base, so one team just gets a bonus Bonnie, maybe Siffrin's to help make up for their memory issues. Or, if Isabeau's substantially better at general pop culture than Mirabelle (bc he's put work into being A Sociable Guy vs Mira being shy and focused on classes), then maybe Isabeau vs Mirabelle+Siffrin vs Odile+Bonnie...?i
#sorry if this is the wrong game lmao#there was another one that was less pop culture and more just words#but the description i found wasn't as detailed...#so i can't tell if the game gives you the clues#or if the game just gives you the target word and one member of a team comes up with clues for the other team member#if the latter i do think sif would do well giving clues#since it's listing synonyms but any effective synonym will do#but guessing seems a little harder#since again you have to happen to land on The correct word#but at least you don't have to also know pop culture#i can't tell if the 'this word is a syllable of a longer word' kind of lateral thinking#would be super hard in a secondary language or actually a little easier...#isat

Is Celia and Sam's ship name really ripsam? It sounds like we're saying Sam is dead
It's the one I came up with and I think it's funny so I keep using it. And he's dead because the sheer presence of Hot Lady killed him thank you for coming to my ted talk
#fg's answers#asks#its unconventional but funny and has less syllables than 'samcelia' or 'samelia' or whatever

i just started the newest episode of d20 and i know that this isn't useful bc all of the episodes of burrow's end have already been recorded but @quiddie if you (or anyone else), for whatever reason, need to come up with more words for stoats, consider:
kijetesantakalu
#for those who dont know ''kijetesantakalu'' is a word in toki pona#which is a minimalist conlang with less than 150 words#most of the words have a very broad meaning (/can have several meanings) and are 1-3 syllables#meanwhile kijetesantakalu specifically means musteloid#the word was originally an april fools joke but is part of the official vocabulary#dimension 20#burrow's end#aabria iyengar#toki pona#(if you wanna keep the phrase within toki pona you can maybe use ''kijetesantakalu kulupu'' which would mean ''group of stoats'')#(bc in toki pona there arent that many options if you wanna be alliterative)#(but if you wanna mix english and toki pona you can just go with ''kick-ass kijetesantakalu'' or something like that)#((also i dont actually know that much about toki pona so @toki pona people please dont come for me if i got something wrong))#((ive just watched some jan misali videos ok))

my drama teacher commented that my take on the Hamlet scene I’m doing was ‘refreshing’. we’re so back
#hamletposting#hamlet#shakespeare#who knew the secret this whole time was less moping#and a little more ecstasy#he did however mention that he wasn’t sure the assessors would be greatly appreciative of the large gap between the first and second (cntd)#syllables of the word ‘country’ so we win some we lose some i SUPPOSE

i should make a post about my kaeya headcanons. particularly my hcs about his childhood
#like. early childhood. pre ragnvindrs#i dont think he was physically abused or starving. though i do think his life and the way his father parented him was less than ideal#i think that he could speak basic common when he got left in mondstadt and learned the rest there#and had an accent he nearly completely got rid of#nearly because i like to think that theres some words or syllables that still sound vaguely ''off'' but only if ur paying close attention#but no one really is#i think he was quiet and kept to himself when he arrived but wasnt a nervous wreck like i see depicted so often#you can BET he was freaking out. but like that's biting his own hand to choke down sobs late at night things. never in front of anyone#oh i also think he was around 8 or 9#damn it lena save it for the post#my posts#kaeyaposting

One thing I will never understand about clients is when they send me back translations that need... extremely small fixes. Like. Fixes so small, they could do it themselves? Is it not a much bigger hassle to tell me what the fix is, then wait for me to do it to get it back? It would take them all of five seconds to do it... as much as it takes to do this back-and-forth, but with no dead waiting time?
Like. I just wrote [ILEGÍVEL] in a translation. My client sent it back with a note: "What does this mean? Please write according to the source document."
Granted. My client is English-speaking, and needs this translated for a Portuguese speaking business partner. Still. STILL. It is ONE word. He KNOWS I'm translating to Portuguese. I wonder what [ILEGÍVEL] could fucking mean, my guy. Did NOT think of putting that one on Google Translate, did you?
#I don't understand how incurious people are sometimes#I mean. It's like ONE syllable away from the English word.#How is it possible you didn't recognize it.#Or think to get this one word#ONE WORD#through Google Translate?#or. IDK.#LOOK at the source document and SEE the words are faded and... GASP... illegible??#that is so much less work than asking me about it. Just do five seconds of research. What are you doing.
