[fairylightspml]

everything reminds me of them

[yonpote]

next spon title is "dan and phil phagon out"

[femslashspuffy]

Rewatching Dan and Phil punk edits rn and I think that when Phil said "don't call me phil anymore call me dragon" I think it was a very quick pivot from accidentally saying "phagon" and I'm very impressed by that because I've had similar things happen before and I didn't pivot in time to sound stupid so I just said it

[dnpvtw]

you know he wanted to say 'phagon' sooooo bad

“Trial by Song” in Ancient Greek

Translation:

“ἡ τῆς ᾠδῆς πείρα”

κυβευτής οὐκ εἰμί

τοὺτο τὸ παίγνιον παίζειν

ἠναγκαζόμην

ῥᾳδιῶς λέγειν ἐδοξα

καί με τοῖς ἐμαυτοῖς λογοῖς ἠλέγχας

εἴτα παρεβάθην

.

νῦν ὑπό τοῦ ἰοῦ

τὰ ἅρματα ἕρπει

οὐράνια

ὁ ὑετός διά κόνεως

καὶ ἐν γή ῥηγνύται

ὁ αὖος

εἰθε τῇ Πόλεσιν οὐκ ἐπεπιστεύκη

τὸ γυπῶν ἄστυ τὸ με φαγόν

“ἔπειτα, ὡσπερεί τὴν ἀνακλησεα ἀποκρινόμενος, ὁ κευθμών τῆς μουσικῆς ἐμπίμπλαται.”

κακοῦργος οὐκ εἰμί

ἀει τῇ βουλῇ ἐπίστευσα

ὁ γὰρ μῶρος ἦν

εἱλόμην δῆλην ὀδόν

καί τὰ σήματα ἐκίνησατο

νὖν οὐ νοστήσω

.

νῦν ὑπό τοῦ ἰοῦ

τὰ ἅρματα ἕρπει

οὐράνια

ὁ ὑετός διά κόνεως

καὶ ἐν γή ῥηγνύται

ὁ αὖος

εἰθε τῇ Πόλεσιν οὐκ ἐπεπιστεύκη

τὸ γ`ὄφεων ἄστυ τό με πιέσαν

.

ἀιχμητής οὐκ εἰμί

ταῖς ὀργαῖς οὐ πείθομαι

ἀλλά μην συ

βούλομαι τρέχειν

βούλῃ ἀναγκαζειν μου μαχεσθαι

καὶ σοι οὐχ ὁμοῖος

.

νῦν ὑπό τοῦ ἰοῦ

τὰ ἅρματα ἕρπει

οὐράνια

ὁ ὑετός διά κόνεως

καὶ ἐν γή ῥηγνύται

ὁ αὖος

εἰθε τῇ Πόλεσιν οὐκ ἐπεπιστεύκη

τὸ γ`ἐχιδνῶν ἄστυ τὸ με ἀνήλωσαν

Back translation:

“The Trial of Song”

I’m not a gambler

To play this game

I was forced

I thought to speak easily

But you refuted me with my own words

Then I transgressed

.

Now beneath the rust

The chariots crawl

In the sky

The rain through the dust

And on the earth shatters

Withered

I should not have trusted the City

The town of vultures which ate me

“Then, as if answering the invocation, the sanctuary is filled with music.”

I’m not a criminal

I always trusted the plan

For I was stupid

I chose a clear road

But the signs moved

Now I will not return home

.

Now beneath the rust

The chariots crawl

In the sky

The rain through the dust

And on the earth shatters

Withered

I should not have trusted the City

The town of serpents which crushed me

.

I’m not a soldier

I never obey the rages

But you do

I prefer to run

You prefer to force me to fight

But I am not similar to you

.

Now beneath the rust

The chariots crawl

In the sky

The rain through the dust

And on the earth shatters

Withered

I should not have trusted the City

The town of vipers which destroyed me

.

Translator’s notes:

Line 4: If “speak easy” was a reference to speakeasies that I dropped, sorry about that.

Line 8/22/36: I considered trying to derive a word for “train” based on a train of soldiers or the train of a dress and combining that with a word for “sky,” but using “chariot” was just, ah, easier.

Narration: It’s a bit on-the-nose, but aside from sanctuary, “κευθμών” can mean both “vault” and “tomb.” Honestly I’m not sure how much use a subterranean society would have for a word specifically meaning “underground room.”

Pixi's friends made fun of me for reading phagonic out loud and went 'Jack you said a bad word!' and now I'm being bullied. :(

Cybertech Bunkerbreakers and Wartechs; Yoyodyne Skychargers, Shigaru, and Zero-G Gliders; Phagons; ca 1987-92 from the Spacelords line by Hobby Products / Metal Magic of Germany, most sculpted by Josef Ochmann and Michael Immig, catalog images from the Stuff of Legends site.  Some of these were a good match to the style of early Citadel Rogue Trader figures, with the Phagons being alternate abhuman beastmen.  The scale was closer to 25mm and fit well alongside the Stargrunt and Star Wars Miniatures Battles figures of the same era, so the Shigaru could serve as Imperial Army or Navy troopers.
