[magz]

whole thread from post calling for "any POC interested in Japanese translation". so understand full context.

DM @/lhkuroda on twitter if interested, for real.

Twitter thread:

(Link: thread 1) (Link: thread 2) (Link: quote retweet) (Link: 2023 Upcoming Japanese Fiction Releases article)

@/lhkuroda on twitter (April 10, 2023):

"Cannot believe how much Japanese fiction is coming out in English this year. Almost unreal.

this list also reveals that more than 90% of Japanese literature translators are still white men. we desperately need more translators who are not that. please.

i'm literally begging.

Japanese in particular seems to be worse than almost any other translated language i can think of. ask yourself why that is.

i count 32 books of translated japanese fiction coming out this year. out of those books, 8 are translated by women [of any racial background]. 6 are translated by people of color [of any gender].

if you are a person of color and you are even remotely interested in becoming a japanese literary translator (all caps): Please D.M. me. I will Help you. This is an S.O.S. (end of all caps)

and if you are a white man and you feel that translating japanese literature is your calling i am begging you to do anything else."

two years ago Kenji Liu and I got funding from @/poetswritersinc to run a free, online workshop for people of color interested in learning about japanese literary translation. more than 30 people attended.

would anyone like to fund me to run another one? idk it feels urgent.

i can share tips for getting started, basic industry info around pitching, plus some 101's of translating literary fiction in general

every year more and more white men become japanese literary translators, and more and more women and people of color are discouraged and bullied and manipulated out of projects they deserve to work on bc these assholes are powerhungry and there are a lot of them.

a very prominent white male translator of japanese bullied me into quitting a project this year because he insisted there was something wrong with every single sentence of my story, and refused to let me publish until i accepted every one of his edits. i almost quit translating.

then i remembered that he can go fuck himself. so anyway if you are anyone that's not a white man and want advice about starting out in translating japanese literature i'm more than happy to help or offer advice."

Another fanzine from the collection!

Dragonfall (Fanlore article here), a collaborative fanzine published/distributed by Fort Weyr, written by Karen Rose Cencone, Julia Ecklar, Melissa Gelhaus Erin Kelly, D.M. Kosak, Wendy Kosok, and Diana Stein in 1990, with interior illustrations by Jennifer Crosby and cover illustration by Robin Wood.

During a foggy threadfall, the weyr suffers massive casualties which cause even more confusion and damage as falling dragons force the fighting formations to break apart. Thread falls unchecked, and dragons die.

As someone who got into the fandom around 2005, and forum fandom at that, I loved this fanzine because it really hammers home that current fandom is not reinventing the wheel with some things – lady brown riders (Brown rider T'leya of Brown Keeth), gold rider mistakes, and a focus on the crafters of the weyr abounds! The version of Pern I started learning from was almost a step back from this.

I've included a big chunk of illustrations under the cut, including the first page which has a very cute scene with two characters trying to figure out how to get a baby to nurse.

I’m am very new to this whole blogging thing. Yours is the only one I am following, and I’ve made a few comments…Is there a way I can see the date/time you entered something ? Also why does it come up twice in a row in the thread

Hi and welcome! As for seeing the date, I think if you scroll up or down, the date is shown at the top or bottom. But it depends on what platform you're using to view my blog. If a post is coming up more than once, it's usually because I've reblogged it and added a comment or more information. You can see at the top of the post it will have the double moving arrow type sign, which means it's a reblog and p-redux to the right of it.

You sent me this to Ask Me anything, which is the way people send me questions for me to post publicly. If you want to send me a private message, you can do so via D.M. I'll send you a D.M. aka Direct Message, that way you know where to go for those.

I don't take any of this fandom stuff seriously, I try to have fun, stay positive as much as possible, and I don't tolerate any negativity toward Sam, Caitriona or their significant others. If you're cool with that, then this is the place for you.

Again, welcome aboard!

Project 1: GodSpit - An Overview of Where We're At Now

GodSpit is the first and oldest idea I'm working on the plot for this NaNo. It's the only project I've already done substantial writing for, but I'm pretty unhappy with the direction the plot was taking, and wanting to rework it was kinda the impetus for this whole NaNo plotting work thing. It's also the project I'm the most casual about: it's 100% writing practice, verging on fanfic, and I don't expect to publish it. It's for fun. Like most of my creative ideas, GodSpit is stupidly derivative. It began with a sick thread on /tg/ (and then /qst/) called Totemist Quest, which began in 2011, authored by Diarca. The Totemist Quest world and magic system were extremely fun, but Diarca's posting was inconsistent and eventually stopped in 2019. Participating in those threads was a ton of fun (literally the only fun I ever had on 4chan), and I still check back every now and then to see if Diarca has posted again. If you're interested, you can read through all the old TQ threads here. GodSpit was my response to wanting more Totemist Quest. I loved the primary magic system, which involved "capturing" the spirits of monsters and adding them to weapons and armor to create wild effects, kind of like a fusion of Pokemon and Monster Hunter. I also loved the creative action, the diverse character cast, and Diarca's willingness to take things a little slow and explore both character and setting. I had other influences, too. D.M. Cornish's Monster Blood Tattoo books, Garth Nix's Seventh Tower, and the Monster Hunter video games being the biggest. There's bits and pieces of some Final Fantasys, some How To Train Your Dragon, a few Magic: The Gathering planes (mostly Kamigawa), and lightly seasoned with a touch of good old Naruto fanfic. One small note: I intentionally use some amalgams of real-world terms, languages, and religious symbols in this story mostly to translate style and intent. I never wish to cause offence or harm, so if that happens I want to know about it and change it. When I began writing GodSpit in 2019, it was with the idea of releasing it serially on Royal Road. So I researched what people said was succeeding on RR, and found a Reddit post of one author's advice. Their core message: don't take your foot off the gas. Break your story's neck. Go really fucking fast. So I tried to do that, I pantsed 9 chapters, ~12k words, looked back at it, and saw a jumbled mess. And now we're here. I even drafted up a ttrpg system for the setting and got a cover commissioned (the one at the top of this post, by the very cool and talented @lucyg_art on Instagram). I'll cover the current world and story of GodSpit in my next post, and then at some point soon I'll actually start re-plotting the whole fuckin thing out 😵‍💫

basic smutty Enemies with benefits draco&reader no catching feelings rule but the reader catch feelings and draco isnt so they cut off their things and when they started seeing other people draco was so jealous and yeah.. jealous ✨ angry ✨ seggs ✨ and ended up being together lol bye 😩😭😂

Friends with Benefits- D.M. SMUT

Warnings: dirtyyyy smut friends with benefits ordeal, language, and dirty themes ;)

Requested: yessss

A/N: this is probably my longest fic yet !

“Have you ever been in love Y/N?” I snorted at the question that spilled from my friends mouth. Shifting my weight as I sat on the table while looking above me. I knew the answer to the question and yet I said nothing.

My eyes wondered over to Draco, who’s hands were buried deep in brown hair as his lips were attached to her throat. I could feel my breath hitch as I watched him. I always wondered how it would feel to kiss him. I bit my lip as I continued watching. His eyes opened before looking at me.

I felt my body freeze as he kept eye contact—drawing a long strip up her neck as he licked his way up. I turned my head away as I remembered that we weren’t friends, not even acquaintances. We were enemies and that was enough for me. I wondered if Draco had ever been in love or was all his relationships as sexual as possible.

The thoughts were snatched from my mind as a shot of fire whisky was shoved into my face. I hated the feeling of how it burned but did I want to look like a pussyfoot in front of everyone? Hell no. I took the shot of the random hands that were in my face. Drowning the shot in one go.

I blinked the tears that started to form from how rough the shit was. It burned so bad, and I tried to keep a straight face. But I failed in the process. The loud lights started to push splinters through my head.

I pushed my body off of the table as I weaved through the crowd. The splitting headache getting worse with each step. This was never my atmosphere and yet I was dragged to every party. I nearly reached the end of the never ending people when I was grabbed off course.

My back hit the cold corridor walk and my head went along. I groaned as my headache made me see white spots. I looked up to see white hair block my vision. The dryness from the shot I previously took made it incredibly hard to talk.

His warm breath flooded my ears and my stomach did a somersault. “For someone who’s nearly top of the class, you sure are dumb.” He hummed and I felt the vibrations from how close he was. I was confused by what he was saying and apparently my face showed it.

“A group of guys were following you out, they would have ruined you if I hadn’t stepped in. You’re welcome.” His warm voice flooded the loud sounds and I felt my body grow warm again. “Thank you…” He looked at me before grabbing my arm and walking off—dragging me along.

He was quiet the entire time as we twisted through the corridors. The coldness of the night was seeping through my body as he dragged me. When we reached his room was when he actually looked at me. His hair was messed up and light pink smudges lined his neck.

No doubt from the girl he was just with. “Why did you drag me here? We’re not exactly friends.” He bore his eyes into mine before he gripped my face. “You don’t understand how bad I want you, always wearing shorts skirts and tights socks…”

My body froze when he smashed his lips onto mine. My body springing into action as I threaded my fingers through his soft hair. His lips started to travel down my throat. Light moans started to come from me as I rubbed my thighs.

His hand gripped my hair as he made me look at him. I couldn’t move but wanted to from his intense gaze. “Let’s make a deal love—we fuck but the first to get feelings loses.” I pulled myself away from him before I used my arms to cover myself.

“Why would I even agree to that?” He hummed as his hands started to caress my cheek softly. His eyes just watching me—my every move. As if he was trying to memorize this moment. “You clearly look like you need to be fucked, practically begging for it.”

He was crazy! We hated each other and yet he wanted us to fuck? I looked at him before smiling a bit. I had always wanted to see what it was like with him. Maybe once would be enough right?

“Fine I’ll agree but only because I’m going to win.” He smiled before smashing his lips back onto mine. One of his hands found their place in my hair while the other pulled my waist close to him. I gasped when I felt his hard erection touch my stomach, and he took the chance to stick his tongue in my mouth.

We fought for dominance but he grew annoyed that I wouldn’t let him win so he pulled back and grabbed me. Walking over to his bed and throwing me onto the silky sheets. I look towards him as he pulled his shoes off, even taking off his tie and unbuttoned a few buttons.

He gripped my ankle before pulling me to the edge of the bed. Taking great care to take of my shoes before me started to kiss my ankle. Making haste as he went up my leg, stopping at my thighs before he bit it hard.

I gasped from the pain but pleasure started to fill my body. I grew tired from holding myself up and fell on my back. Draco’s eyes caught mine before he pulled my body against his. Still holding my thighs as I could feel his erection touch my wet core.

Taking one is his hands to graze my body as he went to clasp it around my throat. He slowly started to rock his hips and I couldn’t help but moan. He knew that I could feel him as he watched me close my eyes from the grinding.

I grew wetter with every movement he made and tried to grind back for friction. Draco moved his body from me but keeping his iron grip on my throat. His fingers started to lightly dance up my leg. He rubbed one finger through my clothed core and I felt my body jerk.

He hummed in response as he made small circles on my bud. I nearly cried out as he watched me squirm. Letting go of my throat as he helped me out of my panties and I felt the cool air hit me. Draco pushed my legs apart as his fingers took position on my core. I growled when he entered a finger.

“So wet for me already.” I bucked my hips as he started to make a comfortable pace with thrusting his fingers. I nearly wilted away when he added another finger. His long fingers were stretching me out—getting me ready for his dick. Even I knew that but god damn the feeling was amazing.

I threw my head back as Draco curled his fingers inside me. Breathy moans were heard as Draco took his thumb to rub my bud. I moaned out louder as I felt myself getting closer. My legs started to shake as I arched my back. One last thrust and I came all over his fingers.

~~~~

“Are you and Draco a thing now?” I looked up from my book as one of Draco’s friends slid into the chair next to me. “What makes you say that?” They laughed out loud as they turned to face me. “We all know that you guys been fucking around for months!” I huffed as I listened to them ramble on and on.

“Draco doesn’t do dating so the answer is no.” The guy next to me turned to face us and joined the conversation. He told us that Draco has been lovey dovey with Astoria. I nearly wanted to snap at the guy but the door tore open and Draco came in.

On his arm was the girl—she giggled loudly as she flipped her hair. He smiled as he ushered her to a wall. I watched the scene and nearly wanted to scream out in anger. Draco caressed her cheek before saying he loved her. I felt my body freeze at what he said.

I stood up and marched out—slamming the door behind me. I felt hurt and I didn’t know why. Draco and I were fuck buddies but he seemed to ditch me for a girl. I punched one of the walls and felt my whole hand bleed with pain. Tears were starting to fall as I laid my head on the wall.

I felt a wind of emotions run over me as I cried into the wall. I started to miss Draco, and everything we did. The sex was good but that’s not what made me feel this way. I missed the way we would lay beside each other and rub each other arms. The way we would just glance at each other throughout the day.

The way he would whisper jokes in my ear as we hated the lesson before us. The way he walked me class to class. The way he would comfort me whenever I grew upset. I missed all the things we did.

I miss-holy shit. I was in love with Draco. I grasped the bricks on the wall as the silent tears fell down my face. I heard giggling and my head snapped towards the sound. I looked to see Draco walking down the hall with that girl.

He stopped in his tracks when he saw me, our eyes connected. Astoria looked confused as she watched us. She started to pull on Draco’s sleeve but he was too busy watching me. I stood up shaking as I tried to walk away. Draco gripped my arm as he looked into my eyes. Holding my face in his hands.

“Who made you cry?” I could see his face grow angry as he waited for me to answer. I just tried to pull away but his grip was rock hard on me. “Nothing I’m fine Draco-“ He growled as he wiped the tears with his thumb. I leaned into his touch as I closed my eyes. The pain I felt before was gone.

All from a single touch. I missed how his face was when I whispered to him. “I love you.” He pulled back and the coldness made me open my eyes. He looked at me with a look that I couldn’t even read but he spoke to help me understand.

“That wasn’t part of the deal—we have to stop this.” I wanted to reach out for him but I just looked at him one last. Turning around, walking away from the person I loved the most.

~~~~

I never understood how I always got dragged to parties. The loud music made me feel out of place. Yet I took every drink that was shoved in my face. I could feel myself get fluffy or fuzzy from the drinks that were in my stomach. I hummed to the music as I felt someone grip my waist.

The smell of cinnamon flooded my nose as I could taste the fire whiskey that seeped off of him. I opened my eyes as I turned to face the guy. I knew him—he was in one of my classes. I didn’t know his name but what I did know was that he is a good quidditch player. His black hair covered his green eyes as I looked at them.

They were beautiful—his eyes—that I couldn’t look away from. His smile made me feel warm as he hugged me tighter. His mouth near my ear as he whispered to me. “I heard that you and Draco aren’t fuck buddies anymore.” I wanted to push myself away but he didn’t stop talking.

“I grew excited when I heard I had a chance with you. I always see you on the field and just want to take you in the locker room.” I felt my body grow warm as I listened to his words. I hated to admit but he had a way with words. Or maybe the alcohol I had was starting to take affect.

I was buzzed but still able to make sense of the world. I wrapped my arms around his neck and his hands landed on my waist. We swayed back and forth before I changed positions. My back was touching his firm chest as I swayed my hips against him. His hands left my waist before they grazed my boobs. One hand making themselves comfortable on my throat as his pushed my head back so I could see him.

He turned my neck to the side as his lips started to nip at my throat. I moaned at the feeling but opened my eyes to see Draco watching me. His watched as I gasped when he guy behind me nipped at my earlobe.

My half lidded eyes peered at Draco; who was now gripping drink hard. The cup was nearly ready to snap from how hard he was gripping it. I shut my eyes to stop looking at him as the guy started to grip one of my boobs in his hands.

I felt my entire body jerk as I was pulled away. I opened my eyes as I looked at Draco who now hand me in his arms. The guy looked at Draco as he raised his eyebrow at what just happened. “Don’t fucking touch her like that.” Draco growled as his grip on me was getting tighter. The guy laughed as he looked down at me before going back to Draco.

“Last time I heard, she isn’t yours anymore so hand her over.” Draco let go of me as he took his fist and hit the guy in front is us. I cried out to have Draco stop but he wouldn’t listen to me. I finally pulled Draco off but the damage was already done. The guy pulled himself back up as blood fell from his nose.

He just laughed before looking at me. “Next time don’t push away something you love or people will snatch her.” He winked at me before walking into the crowd of people who were watching the scene. Draco kept his eye on the crowd till the guy disappeared and then looked at me. “Fuck this!”

Throwing me over his shoulder as we left the party. I looked up a bit to see Astoria watching us as we left. I was confused about why Draco was suddenly acting like he cared. He wanted to be with that girl and yet he was dragging me back to his room.

He threw me on the bed roughly as I looked up at him. He tore off his shoes and tie before grabbing me by the ankles. Roughly pulling me to snatch my shoes off. He already went ahead and ripped my panties off. I squirmed when he got on top of me. Attaching his lips onto my throat as he left marks behind. Ripping my shirt off as the buttons popped off.

He left marks all over my boobs, letting everyone know that I was his. I bucked my hips as I felt myself get wetter from his just leaving marks. He growled against my skin before looking at me with his dilated eyes. “Why did you let him touch you like that? Made me fucking watch!”

He bit my thigh after that, making my back arch. I moaned louder as he made way up my legs. Lifting my skirt up for more access to me. Bucking my hips up but Draco gripped my thighs tightly. “Now you cum when I say so since you want to act like a whore.”

I threw my head back when his tongue ran through my folds. “F-Fuck yes!” I screamed out as his tongue was licking me. He hummed and I felt the vibrations shake my body. His fingers were testing the waters before he entered a finger. I felt the tight coil start to form in my stomach as I gripped Draco’s hair. I wanted to cum so bad but tried to hold myself back.

But my own body was betraying me as I felt myself getting closer. When he added two more fingers, I screamed out as he continued to lick. “P-Please let me cum! Please!” Draco pushed my legs further apart as his head was comfortable between me. He nipped at my bud and my body started to shake.

I kept begging Draco to let me cum but he never answered me. When I finally came, my body was still shaking from the aftermath. Draco leaned over me to looked into my lidded eyes that could barely stay open. “I never said you could cum Y/N.”

He flipped me over to lay on my stomach as he gripped my hips. Pushing my ass into the air as his lips nibbled on my earlobe gently. I could feel his hard dick press against my ass as I tried to grind against him. He slapped my ass before growling in my ear. “Such a fucking whore for this dick hmm.”

I groaned as he pressed his erection more against me. Lifting up my skirt to see my wetness drip down my legs. I felt the bed shift as Draco started to take off his belt before throwing it on the floor. I felt my body shake in excitement for what was to come next.

I felt his tip poke my core as I tried to move my hips to get any kind of friction. He pulled back before snapping at me. “Now if you want to cum, I suggest you stop fucking moving.” I could feel the seriousness off of him and tried staying still. Draco lines himself up as I felt him push his tip in.

I moaned loudly into the sheets as I gripped my thighs. Spreading myself for Draco as he continued to push himself in. His groaned filled my ears as I could feel myself tighten around him. When he was ball deep inside me, I could feel his large dick in my stomach as he started to make a comfortable thrust. I felt tears come from my eyes as he started to thrust harder into me.

“F-Fuck!” I screamed as Draco leaned over to rub my nipples with his fingers. The entire time thrusting so hard I could feel his dick in the middle of my stomach. Draco licked up my spine before biting my collarbone and my hands gripped his sheets tightly. My hands turned white from hard I was gripping as he pounded into me.

He sat back up and pushed my face into the bed as he thrusted even harder. “Letting him fucking touch you.” I moaned as he continued to thrust angry at me. “Letting his mouth lick your throat!” I cried out as he pushed my head back more. “Letting him grind against you!”

I felt my stomach start to coil as he pounded into me with no mercy. “And you fucking made me watch!” He growled as his head fell on my back. Draco cussed as he felt us both getting closer to cumming. “Fuck…ing….slut.” Each syllable was followed with a sharp thrust. He growled as he bit down on my shoulder blade. I felt stars start to grow in my vision as I begged Draco to let me cum.

“Cum for me princess, fuck!” He threw his head back and thrust one last time. My body started to shake as I came hard on him. He continued to thrust into me and my body jerked with every thrust he made. My body over sensitive from my orgasms back to back. He snapped his harder and my ass jiggled from how hard he was hitting me.

I felt another orgasm start to form as he continued to thrust into me. “So fucking close… just a bit more.” I felt my body start to shake again as he pounded into me. With a couple more thrusts we both came at the same time. My body still shaking on him as I came down from my third orgasm.

I was trying to catch my breath as Draco waited for me. He looked at me as I had my eyes closed. My body would still shake here and there as I came from my high. I opened my eyes to see Draco staring at me. We looked at each other before he whispered to me.

“I always loved you Y/N.”

~~~~

Sometimes I think about the question that got me into this mess with Draco. “Have you ever been in love Y/N?” Back thing I snorted at the question as I stared at the candles that floated above us. But now, I smile when I think I have Draco.

So yea to answer your question dumbass—I’ve been in love. With a stupid boy named Draco Malfoy.

Draco halted her step as their comment registered. She could feel her pulse quickening even before she fully turned around to face them. She tilted her head, expression remaining neutral, "say that again," she asked though the anger in her voice made it sound more like a challenge.

Wayward Son Spoiler

I’m. Not. Ok. Ugh lemme make a list of stuff to expect in the next book/threads left untied

1. Whether Simon and Baz are ok? Baz loves Simon and Simon loves Baz but Simon thinks Baz is better off without him. I hope the ending of the third book is happy. I will die if it isn’t. Oh god.

2. Then ofc what’s up with Watford? I’m so excited for them to return. I also want to see what Watford is like without the Mage.

3. The Next Bloods still exist. What’s going to happen to them? Will they address the organisation in the next book? What happened to the lab? Will they be tied to the trouble at Watford?

4. What does Agatha finally decide wrt magic? She’s clearly powerful but hates magic. Does she try to live like a normal or what?

5. Does Simon find out about his parents? I’d expected some references to that in this book. Maybe it’ll be there in the next one.

Also what about the next book ka title? It would be so cool if it was called like something related to peace cuz “there’ll be peace when you are done” and then they can finally all be happy and be like, done with all this stuff. Please give me a happy ending.

Anyway. Overall the book was AMAZING. Ugh. So. Good. I’m not okay but it was so beautifully written oh god. Please D.M. me if you want to cry about it with someone else.

Peter Hope & David Harrow - Frique Head Blues - a fruitful collaboration still going strong after 35 years

When Hope + Harrow first released their SUFFERHEAD EP back in 1985 it was Fela Kuti's 'Original Sufferhead' that inspired the title. Back then, in Thatcher's Britain, protest songs were very much in the fore as privatisation of the country's industry and infrastructure cut deep into the working classes and pitted them, head to head, against each other & the government. Over in Nigeria Fela was the real deal when it came to speaking out against state/military authority and corruption and, as such, was an inspiration, made all the more potent through the infectious rhythms and melodies. For David Harrow this was the catalyst for a life long love affair with African music and instrumentation. There is no greater exponent of struggle in the human condition than the blues. It deals in absolute and undeniable truths, beautiful in its imperfection, it is a direct transmission of the spirit. Listen to the field hollers of the American south or the early recordings of folk blues from the Mississippi Delta and you are hearing the very source of all modern Western music, albeit through its own roots threading back, once more, to Africa. This is the sound that first infected Peter Hope as far back as 1965, from the spark of Howlin' Wolf's 'Little Red Rooster' performed by The Rolling Stones on Ready Steady Go! So here they are, raw & simple Ethno-Électronique-Blues. It wasn't planned or preconceived & is neither purist or artificial but was created by simply doing what we do, unhindered by external filters or second guessing. Although we're sure there's a label out there who'd love to do a physical release we haven't found it yet. We'd intended on doing a limited hand-made CDR package but the viral lockdown of Interzone has put a gag on that too, so, for now, grab the FREE DOWNLOAD, sing and dance, press repeat and, if possible, SHARE the infection. Above all "Keep the good vodou in your heart" D. Harrow - All Instrumentation P. Hope - Vocals Collage Image (front) - D.M. Nagu (d-m-nagu.de)

The question hangs in the air for a moment before White signs and puts a hand over his face. “No, I don’t want to know. I truly don’t. Anyone I could have been, it doesn’t matter anymore. I’m White now, I’m with the Orpheus detective agency. That’s all I need.”

There’s a pause before he continues. “But I feel a pull, like destiny is calling to me and I can’t help but follow the thread. I can’t help but lead my friends in to danger for answers, like the selfish man that I am. They come willingly but how long until I get them or myself killed? How long must I continue the facade of not caring but care so deeply, so wholly, that I almost destroy myself from the inside out?”

“Is that who Saphir is? The one calling me? The one pulling me down this thread straight into a spider’s web?” White pulls his hand down and turns away. “Why do I willingly follow such a voice? Is it because I want to know? Or is it because I crave destruction? Of myself, or everything around me, until he stops me. He will stop me, he will stop Saphir - and you D.M. I’m sure of it.”
