So, my name is Isabela and I play as myself always so is very amusing for me to read Ysabella and Isabela in the same sentence for some reason. Like, So similar but so different! Can u also tell me how to pronounce her name? And well give me an explanation for why this isn't adressed in the story? (I know its because u cant code for every different name but I also want the twins reacting to that lol) is okay if u ignore this! (English is not my first language btw lol)
I've had so many people ask me to tell them how to pronounce certain character's names, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to type a sound 😭. I could record it, but then, you'd be exposed to my terrible Portuguese accent, and no one deserves that fate.
As for coding a warning about identical names or even adding characters reactions if you have a similar name… I didn't think of it 😄. I always use the pre-set names in games because I assume they're lore-friendly, so I didn't give too much thought to the custom names.
I'll have to think about it.

According to 4koma #232, Kohane has the ability to purr.
#project sekai#4koma#kohane azusawa#potentially interesting TL notes:#first for context in the panels before this An was thinking about how great kohane's singing/smile is. hence the throat thing.#anyway An uses says いけない when talking to kohane which can mean various things like “should not” “unable to” or “naughty”#she's treating kohane kinda like a cat here so i localised her part with the “how naughty~” like she's talking to one#also akito just says “it's complicated” in response to kohane which doesn't really work in english so i just changed it to another statemen#that conveys a similar meaning (he's pointing out that kohane is purring like a cat despite her saying she isn't one lol)#you probably could've done an's part as “it's all your throat's fault” but i thought “how naughty” was more in spirit of the cat motif#this is not interesting at all

jus imagine infecting owner!price and pup!gaz w the sleepy girl agenda.
always pulling price back into bed, locking your chubby thighs around his waist. he just can't deny you. his cute girl, all sleepy and soft for him. he loves how sweet you are in the mornings, nuzzling into his neck, the comfortable weight of your body ontop of his, arms wrapped around your waist. he likes to act like he's getting up just so he can hear you whine, watch as you snuggle so close to him it's as if you're trying to crawl inside him.
with kyle it's the opposite. the pup works hard, keeping you and price safe, training, doing the manual chores around the house. he needs his naps, and for those he needs you. a pretty weighted blanket. he turns on your favourite movie, pulling you to rest your head on your chest. the whole time he idly plays with your hair, waiting until you fall asleep to join you.
#watch this be full of typos#im so mf tired from uni id love to nap w kyle or price#hc that johnny gets so tired by the end of his and your playdates that he just falls asleep ontop you#woah great english estelle#mw2 x reader#john price x reader#captain john price x reader#price x reader#gaz x reader#kyle gaz x reader#kyle gaz garrick x reader#pupreader x pupkyle#pupkyle x pupreader x ownerprice#pupkyle x pupreader#price x chubby!puppygirl

"He smiled understandingly-much more than understandingly. It was one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it, that you may come across four or five times in life. It faced-or seemed to face, the whole eternal world for an instant, and then concentrated on you with an irresistible prejudice in your favour. It understood you so far as you wanted to be understood, believed in you as you would like to believe in yourself, and assured you that it had precisely the impression of you that, at your best, you hoped to convey." Nick Carraway about Jay Gatsby, 'The Great Gatsby'
This is a PARAGRAPH about Gatsby's smile. Not even Gatsby, just his smile. Nick wrote 2 sentences about Jordan and his thoughts on her appearance. Jordan, his supposed "love interest".
This shows us two things. Firstly, Nick is definitely not a good, unbiased narrator. Secondly, Nick is a flaming homosexual.

Of all games why this one
#homicipher#art#mr crawling#This game brings me so much joy#By which I mean having 6 people trying to figure out if the crawling man is screaming peekaboo is amazing#Literally all of us legit thought this was gonna somehow turn out to be an otome game and boy howdy#It's a game alright#Anyways apparently I get the cat one#Neko has claimed the disembodied head#And trix is a kidnapper now I guess#Also Mr hood is best dad and I will not take any arguments on this#Fun fact we started on our second playthrough (got about 90% of the words defined)#and not only did we have such a time reading the conversations. But we were all SO SAD to pick to mean options#Like we choose the option and then expect her to say something or whatever NOT SLAP HIM???? YOU JERK????#Play this game with friends if you can. Completely blind if possible. It's pure puzzle and characterization and goofs#Also you kill god or something I'm not sure#Also if any of your friends are bilingual or an english / japanese nerd or just a general conlang nerd#They will be insufferable and that's a great thing#You're gonna need that energy 😂

Would you rather be british or french
Haven't I answered this before? French the foods nicer the weather's better and it's still apart of the eu
#ask#anon#off topic#but a friend and me were discussing the word british#and how its basically just a synonym for english#bc no one who uses the word british is ever actually referring to Scotland or wales#and if you say you are#your lying#bc the Scots hate being called British#and 70% welsh dont like it either#so why not just say English#and before anyone gets on me about “well the islands technically called great Britain” or “the islands are called the British isles”#stupid argument#that like me saying i can call people from Mexico Americans bc theyre apart of the Americas

KIng Eclipse, we humbly ask for your forgiveness. We, the little voices, are bound to this human to guide them, but we acknowledge that not all our suggestions are wise or well-thought-out. The incident involving the trumpet was a grave mistake, and it was not the human's idea to begin with. We understand that you were injured in the process, and we deeply regret any harm caused.
We ask you to spare the human from any punishment, for their intentions were not malicious. They were merely following an ill-advised suggestion from one of us, and as their humble guides, we take responsibility for the misguided advice. We implore your kindness and understanding in this matter. May you find it in your heart to show mercy to our shared charge, for they are, after all, under your benevolent care. - Unkown Voice (Sry of you can't understand what i'm saying.- My english is bado ╥_╥)
》I appreciate the humble apology but a suggestion is a suggestion, and not a command. This small human could have not followed the suggestions of you little voices. Though i am a fair king and will be mercyfull in giving punishment to a scared human. Three hundred years of servitude should be enough... though we will see《
#fnaf eclipse#dca#daycare attendant#daycare attendant x y/n#my art#fae au#and i- oup#(dw bout your english its great!)

you can make fun of felix for sounding dumb when he speaks, he does say some very funny and questionable, somewhat bizarre things at times, but there's a certain point where I am going to judge you for it a little bit <3
#he reminds me of my brother#are either of them particularly graceful in their use of the english language? no. Regardless.#god this is why i can never deal with smartie pants people on this website bc you'll be So omg i support everyone#im so progressive 😌 and then you'll just go and mock someone for struggling with words lmao#youre really not and i know you and your 'I was a gifted student' ass was probably nasty to the kids who had to get extra help at school#like laughing at foon or him saying does chicken have meat in it is legit fine- he has some great stoner lines for a sober guy#but when he uses a slightly awkward turn of phrase but you can still easily understand what he meant and yet youre calling him an idiot?#Uh. I will judge you for that :)#like maybe im sensitive after getting called dumb more than once by literal adults as a child- adults who missed my very obvious and#apparent dsylexia and adhd has made me sensitive but i dont care. some of you are just mean for the sake of being mean#felix might never see your posts but other people who relate to him in that way very well might

i just love the "bad path" choice from x's route??? even if x remembers it down the line i feel like this choice was way more my crown than the other one. i love that our crowns can't just say whatever they want and everyone will keep on loving them! it's about the *boundaries* it's about the *truly knowing and respecting your lo* it's about the *no one is here to kiss you ass* we love to see it (i love love love this if <3333 your writing is amazing :) )
(sorry for any possible mistakes! english isn't my first language)
I loved writing that route for X as well!!
Even if the Crown recovers their romance later down the line, X may forgive them for it, but that will still be a formative moment in their relationship. It'll become a sensitive topic for them, absolutely.
It can really pay dividends to just roleplay for your character and stick to your decisions to see where they lead down the line.
It's exactly for that purpose that AToC can be read in multiple different ways: a successful Crown with a love story for the ages, a Crown that failed to stabilize the Empire and lost everything as a result, a tragic Crown who was a good ruler but experienced heartbreak due to a failed romance, or a Crown who became a tyrant and whose otherwise devoted lover was forced to stand against them as a result.
All equally valid ways to shape your story however you like it!!

hey psst c'mere... no a little closer... a little closer- there we go
Loop lips are part of a racist caricature of Black people. Stop drawing Black characters with loop lips. I don't care how they look in canon, it's racist.
okay that's all you can go
#one piece#usopp#goes for other black characters too but this is the one that comes to mind rn.#not gonna get into other shit like 'lightening their skin to make them look prettier teehee'#or 'but they look better with wavy/straight hair!¡!!' or any of the number of other stuff ive seen#bc like. im not even sure folks can handle this one simple thing lmao#many people are great about this but theres still quite a few who are ass#'um! well the creator did it this way and i like him! and he did it on his white characters too!' dont give a shit.#stop drawing racist caricatures. i like op too but im not riding that guy's dick and twisting myaelf in knots trying to justify all his BS#we can agree he's bad at drawing women and he fumbles how he handles queer characters (sometimes. this is mostly referring to momoiro)#but you can't listen to folks who are constantly saying 'hey this is a racist depiction of black people. please dont draw like that'#like???#im gonna keep it 100 with you guys. i love one piece. its got me through some dark times. ive loved it for a long long time#i dont expect the creator to ever give me the time of day#but english fandom? english fandom i can change. and english fandom i can hold to a BARE MINIMUM standard of 'dont be racist'#and yet i still get disappointed. far more often than i should.#ignorance is one thing but the people who DOUBLE DOWN are the worst#thanks for telling me you prioritize your comfort over not being wildly offensive to me and people like me#idfk where i was going with this im just so goddamn tired#if u wanna know more about what im talking about in the post just look up the wiki for minstrel shows & jim crow

hiiiiii!hope ur doing well and drinking water(eventhough i don’t ,i want others to)so at first i just rlly wanted to thank you for this account and for giving me so many argumented thoughts because when i read these books(not the duology KoS),about a year ago,I THOUGHT THE SAME THING.and eventhough i did not argument it i still promoted my thoughts because,”that’s my opinion you can have another.”but now i can argument my thoughts and i thank u for that.
anywayyyy,my question is:does it ever give you the ick the fact that the books mentions aleksander having multiple lovers?like i know it’s normal but i just find it kind of icky,mentioning him “so good at seducting women”.honestly ew.like i didn’t need to know that women folded when they looked into his eyes.because at the end of the day,even with all the hours i spent on ao3 hoping that they were endgame,they weren’t.sooooo…maybe he is not so good after all(jk).all the jokes aside,maybe it’s just me but i find it icky when someone mentions the mmc ex lovers.like pls focus on the main ship for the love of god.
that was my question,hope you have a great day and if u are rotting in bed and feel guilty abt it,remember that anyone deserves to rot when they feel like it🎀🎀🎀
-anon🍓
p.s.english is not my first language and i also wrote it fast so pls if i misspelled something keep that in mind<3
You're welcome!! I'm so happy to know that I have contributed to this community 😊🫡
And yeah I was rotting in my bed and binge-watching Breaking Bad while this ask came. There's no such thing as guilty pleasure.
I think that in the books it was only mentioned once by Baghra in S&B (after the Winter fete make out) that he had plenty of time to learn how to manipulate women (*eye rolling here*).
But yeah generally I don't find it icky. Personally I would get the ick if he used manipulation or lies to bed them but Leigh never implied that in her past interviews. And I believe he was pretty straightforward and honest with his intentions. And still is! (flashbacks from the Winter fete and name reveal scene coming in)
A little bonus: If he felt only sexual feelings for Alina I don't think he would even panic. He would be unfazed and would even try to use it for his advantage. But instead he got feelings which upset and angered him, something that Alina felt while kissing him in S&B after their little show.
He feels comfortable with sex but not with romantic feelings.
#the darkling#anon asks#also your English are just fine and I hope you have a great day too! ❤️❤️#Leigh had mentioned in a Q&A that girls were swooning for Aleksander since almost forever so he wouldn't need to manipulate anything#and sorry for the little rant about the Alina-Aleksander situation. I just won't shut up about them 🥲#aleksander morozova#alina starkov#leigh bardugo#grishaverse#shadow and bone#grishaverse trilogy#pro darkling#darklina#alarkling#pro darklina

We’ve heard of “parents when their headcanons for their children aren’t canon”
But then there’s my mom: “my headcanon for my daughter IS canon but I wanted it to stay a headcanon and not actually BE canon. It’s not a good headcanon anymore now that it’s canon”
#‘you’d be a great writer Kathryn! you should focus on writing!’#‘you should put writing ahead of all your other activities!’#‘if anyone can make it as an author it’s you’#‘wait what. you’re an english major. WHAT. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH AN ENGLISH MAJOR’
