Hi! I found your fic The Moon in Gemini recently, I have to say I'm in love. I'd like to ask you if I can translate into Ukrainian (my native language) and publish it on AO3. And, of course, indicating your authorship and a link to the original. Thank you for putting out such a fine piece of art! It's a masterpiece and I'm glad I got to read it. I look forward to receiving your response in the near future

Hello! I'm sorry for replying very late. Thank you for asking and for your kind words 🖤 here is my official policy:

I allow translations of my work so long as I am credited as the author and a link to the original work is included. If posting on AO3, please click the "this work is a remix, a translation, a podfic, or was inspired by another work" box to link to the original. If you are posting to another website, such as ficbook, I ask that you send me a link to the completed translation so that I may share it on the original on AO3. Again, so long as there is no paywall or any other monetization happening, you have my permission.

Starting the Collection with a Halloween One-Shot !

I am really into the spooky theme and because I physically CANNOT wait anymore for the halloween event I had to cope in some way u.u

This is obviously focused on my fanon au, fic and OC but i tried to keep it somewhat vague so that it can stand upon itself as a one-shot

Hi there, love your BB AU! And lately, I've been curiously looking at Clanmew and how I would translate my OC's names. I have a gal named Posystar, and I was wondering how 'posy' might be translated in Clanmew? Do they have a word for it, or a word similarly describing a small bunch of flowers? I was also curious as to how I would translate her deputy Lotuswing, I know Lotus flowers aren't native to the UK, but is there a word that might similarly evoke the word? Also, would cats know specific shades of colors? (My healer gal is Cobaltfreckle) Are there words for them? Or are they more generalized? I noticed there wasn't a word for 'sting' in the lexicon? Then again maybe that's just me passing over it :) {For my man, Kestrelsting} I also couldn't find a word for mimic (for my gal Tempestmimic) Checking the lexicon there also isn't a word for borage, so I went to double check that it's native to the UK, but google wasn't being quite clear with me haha. (Boragedusk) I couldn't find the word bristle either, but I'm not entirely sure whether or not the cats would have a word for that, nor could I find a word for back (as in a cat's back). (Blizzardback) Looking up 'Junco birds' it says that they are very rare visitors to the UK, what would a good replacement for this prefix be? (For my bold lil kitty Juncopaw) And last but not least, the boy himself, Mitzy Moo Moo. I'm not entirely sure how to go about translating his name? He's a former kittypet. Would his name stay the same, could he pick a translation? If he did keep his name would it be pronounced differently? So sorry for the long ask! Feel free to ignore it :) I'm obsessed with your project and love the work and care you have put into it!

Lots of new words here, let me try my best! For Cobaltfreckle, Juncopaw, and Lotuswing, dive into the Lexi and try to take a look at the colors, birds, and lilypad words! I also linked some asks there that may be helpful. There's also a word in there for clusters of tiny flowers.

New words time!

Posy/Bundle/A pack of dried herbs, typically for storage or traveling = Rushe (Leaf + Dry) A "Posy" as I know it is a bundle of dried, smelly flowers, based off the miasma theory hypothetical that posited that the basis of all sickness was "bad smells" and environments. So the closest translation here is probably a package of herbs! Could also be used in the context of a "prescription." This is the bundle of herbs you will be taking-- one leaf a day, two leaves boiled at dawn and dusk, etc. These are still administered by the Cleric though.

Stung/Stinging/Will Sting = Kskaib/Kskai/Kska The sharp pain of disinfection OR an aggressive insect attack-- can refer to biting or stabbing. The sharp, sudden pain is the most important part here.

Imitated/Imitating/Will Imitate = Shesapab/Shesapa/Shesap A more positive association for mimic! This implies flattery, or an attempt to pick up a useful skill through observation. Owlstar picked up hunting skills from an owl through this. An apprentice is expected to do this with their mentor.

Bristle = Shech A thick, stiff hair. Associated strongly with boars, but also some types of plant fibres pass beyond "needle" and arbitrarily become bristles, like the frayed end of a chewstick used to clean teeth.

Hackle = Chefaf The especially long hairs that lay along a cat's spine, and stick straight up when the "hackles are raised." LOTS of words are used interchangeably with these to be poetic, including bristle (defensiveness), harmless thorn (bluster or bravado), or even tall grass (excitement/chills)

Hackled/Hackling/Will Hackle = Makekes/Makeke/Makek The act of raising your hackles-- the line of fur down a cat's back! Instead of describing this very common action as "His hackles started to raise," they describe it as, "He was hackling."

GLOIVY'S FIC POLICIES

BINDINGS

I do not allow bindings of any of my fics. This is due to the unethical nature of many binders collecting profit from their bindings/typesets/patreons, which is illegal and puts fandom as a whole in jeopardy.

To reiterate: I do not give permission for any of my fics to be bound for any purpose - including for personal use.

COLLECTIONS

I do not allow any of my fics to be added to collections (outside of fests/comps I am participating in). This is due to the growing problem of collection maintainers hiding works against authors' permission.

TRANSLATIONS

I do not currently give permission for the translation of any of my fics.* This is due to a recent disrespectful encounter that has left me cautious with my trust on this matter.

*This may change in the future, however I will announce this change when/if it happens.

PODFICS

If you would like to podfic any of my fics you must first contact me for permission, for every fic you podfic. Any podfics created from my work must not be posted anywhere other than AO3, as sites such as youtube and spotify collect monetisation.

DO NOT POST ANY OF MY WORKS TO GOODREADS. I WILL REPORT IT AND HAVE IT TAKEN DOWN.

DO NOT USE/COPY MY WORKS OR REPOST THEM ON ANY OTHER SITES.

If you see anyone breaking any of my policies, please get in touch!
