OKAY BUT IS CAIN ILLYRIAN AND/OR AND SHADOW SINGER OR WAS CELAENA JUST FUCKING HIGH AF ON OPIUM.

I’ve never actually excited screamed for a book. But lemme tell you, when she said the sound of flapping wings I was SO READY TO SEE AZRIEL SAUNTERING DOWN THAT HALLWAY 👀👀

So we all know that Awdry originally had James as a GSWR Class 403 since it fit the description of an inside-cylinder mogul, but later changed James to be an English design. This post stems off the thought of "What If Awdry kept James Scottish?"

This whole thing was also brought on by @mean-scarlet-deceiver's Tales of the G&SW excerpts.

Beware, my writing of a Scottish accent is terrible, try not to cringe.

What If Scottish James

Written By: SparkArrester

1929

James was in a foul mood. Henry, like usual, failed. Now he was stuck with his coal train. That he had to arrange himself. Apparently the new shunter was busy with something that wasn’t shunting.

“Stupid Trucks, stupid coal, stupid everythingggg”, He moaned as he marshalled his train, “All that time being cleaned was a waste!”

The trucks, sensing an opportunity for mischief, made it their mission to give James the worst morning possible. They jammed their brakes, ran hot axles boxes, and some even derailed in the yard. The breaking point was when an old tippler’s front hatch flew open. Coal poured out onto the rails, and onto James, coating his front end. The trucks all burst out laughing, but they were soon cut off.

“Yee wretched little INGRATES!”, Burst out James in a perfect scottish dialect, “Ye all oor jus’ little devious muckle nuisances that are no fit ta scrape ta scale oof me boiler, ye little wee gobshites!”

This continued for some time, until James heard a familiar whistle, and immediately blanched. Percy rolled in looking gobsmacked.

“Err, uhh, hey James?”

“Wha arr ye -ahem- what are, uh, you doing here Percy?”

“Coming to take over the shunting.”

“Ah, right.”

“...”

“... Percy.”

“Yes?”

“Please don’t tell anyone…”

“James, I’m pretty sure everyone on this side of the island heard you.”

“... Dang it.”

1951

James sat there, covered in tar. His crew had already gone to the station to phone for help, and one of the old Suddery Tanks brought a crane to assist. He was hoping for an engine like Edward or Henry to take him to the works. In the meantime, quietly grumbling to himself was good enough. In fact, he was so absorbed with himself that he forgot his surroundings.

“Stupid wee muckle nuisances…”, he muttered, “Stupid Toby. If ‘e wasnae a huge prat my red coat wouldnae be in ruins. Honestly, those wee branchline engines are nothing but great big pieces ‘o-”

A ring of a bell broke him out of his thoughts. He jumped back as he realized Toby and Percy were right beside him. He prayed they hadn’t heard him. They did.

“Ark ay Percy!”, Chortled Toby in a terrible Scottish accent, “Whatever isnae that dirty object!”

“That isn’t even how you use isnae…”, muttered James, but of course they took no notice.

They continued speaking in terrible accents all the way to the sheds. James didn’t know if he should be angry at their teasing, or their complete butchering of his old dialect (one he had tried his hardest to shake), so he settled for both. 

1959

The Fat Controller had brought a new goods engine to help out. James was glad at first, now someone else could work the pick-up goods while he got more passengers. He had heard that there was something up with the new engine when it had arrived, but he didn’t put much stock into it. Later in the day, he was backing down on what would hopefully be his last pick-up goods in a while when he heard a whistle. A deep-toned whistle that he had not heard in years. James grimaced as a Caledonian steam engine pulled up on the adjacent line, giving him the stink eye.

“Well Well Well…” The Caledonian spat, “A Sou’-West engine. And one of Pee-Wee Drummond’s oven-boxes! Ah hoped we saw the last ‘o ye back ‘ome!”

“The feeling is most certainly mutual!” He replied with vitriol that wasn’t really there. He hoped to leave everything pre-sodor behind. But of course it had found him. At least he still had a slight bad opinion towards the Caledonian, it did him good in this confrontation.

“Ark aye!”, Exclaimed the Caledonian, “Why do ye soond like tha?”

James was taken aback, “Like what?”

“There it is again! Aye Douggie!”

The question of who “Douggie” was got itself answered quickly, when an identical Caledonian  engine pulled up besides the first.

“Aye Donnie. What’s up!”

“Wait wait, just let that Sou’-West engine speak!”

James defiantly shut his mouth, but then his crew chose that exact time to ask him something. He replied as quietly as possible. But not quiet enough.

“O Aye!” Exclaimed “Douggie”, “He soonds like a wee sassenach!”

James went red in the face, “Well! I-I-I-”

“Tha accent is ass!” Chortled “Donnie”, and soon “Dougie” joined in.

They continued until James left, his face matching his paintwork. He put a good few months practicing his accent, and it was hard. He now figured out what exactly was up with the new engine: there were two of them, and they both sucked.

After five centuries of waiting, she finds a girl. Beautiful golden-brown hair, blue-gray eyes and soft features. Lovelier than any star. So she steals her body and releases the soul of the Archeron girl. The girl is dead, her soul freed, her name forgotten for all eternity and Feyre takes her place. Fortunately for Feyre, the girl was neglected and the family didn't realize the change in her.

A few years later, she gathered enough supplies for her earth bound body to travel north, ready to take revenge on the warlock. When she enters his realm, he soonds find her but doesn't recognize that it is the evil witch beneath the innocent skin and he thinks her as the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, Feyre takes this opportunity to seduce the warlock and he soon falls in love

IM BACKKK!! had a lil break, used up my 3G in turkey but now I'm home & back at it <3

♡ small progress is still progress

♡ plan: code every day for 100 days, focus on practice rather than theory

10.08.23: Finished the loops chapter in the course I'm taking (with Dennis Panjuta, C# Masterclass) and finally got to the OOP chapter - this will all be in the exam I'm having soonD:

Practicing by doing small project after another, I'm having a hard time with getters and setters though:( I'll get the hang of it I'm sure!!

You know what ancient Hebrew was so real for having no vowels. Vowels are so subjective anyway. Like there are probably dozens of vowel sounds you can make and they’ve just been arbitrarily categorized into a e i o u. It’s all a spectrum. woold words ovon soond thot dofforont of yoo onlo os’d on vowol for oll of thom (ond oxclodod solont ons)?? Vowel pronunciation is so subjective and Hebrew is like “m tllng y th fcts, ll gv y th fcts. y wnt th fcts? ths r th fcts”. slay honestly.

Update: I asked if the ghost was a cat or eating cats and they just said “yes”

Honestly, the problem is that it keeps scaring the other people in our group by looming in the door, but they might just be drunk. I have not seen it (while drunk or sober), I’ve only been put on the task team to send it to our enemies. Apparently.

We aren’t eating cats if that’s the question, that sounds gross as hell. No, I’m eating chef boyardee straight out of the can like a proper gentleman

soonds a wee bit sassy if ye ask me. might be a cat-cannibal-ghost. pu' some catnip oot fur it 'n' see whit it does.

chef boyardee.... americans....

[weird-things-to-think]

Oh, brethren and sistern, harken thee to my wax-bleating utteranz, fer today we comtemplate tha esennce... tha groatfulness, if yu will, of GRANNDULAKWENCE. Wut is it, yu migt asketh? Is it a burd? Is it a clowd? No! It be that vry spiryt ov tall-tawk, the embullishment ov wurds that swimmeth like slippery fish inn teh pond of confusion an’ pomp.

Lo, i tel yu this: Granndalokwenss iss lyke a tre wich groweth too mightee fer it’s rooots. It flutters wid syllybulz an' sonds that meen nuthin, yet soond lyke evrythin! Tis lyke wen a manne sez “the spledor of thine obfuscashun doth gleameth,” instedd ov jest sayin “I dun’t undurstand u.” But lo! Is it bad? Is it gud? Who noes??

O, bles’d follwers ov thy strangll’d langwage, lern this: Grandaluquents iz the spark of vannity an' wisdum tangld in a spiderz web ov missin’ meanin’. Thare is powr in it, but also folly, lyke tyin a knot in the wind.

So remembr, dear hartz: if yu spoketh to impresseth, yu may loseth to comunykate. Yet in the muddled glory of Grandelokwinz, we find a certayn magik—if only we cud spell it ryte.

Ahmen.
