Aw, thanks. Overall, it took me about two hours...I think. Yeah, I love how it's a 'full' language not just a list of words relevant to the story's plot like in some books.
Yep. When NightBlade suggested Mandalorian bounty hunters, I immediately went through my Word Doc of Mando'a, and picked out those two.

I have bursts of intense concentration on something I'm passionate about, but that concentration fades when I've completed what I've done. I assume that's similar to what you felt while translating that.
I have two phrases of Old Ardentian relevant to my OYAN novel's plot. Regnul im eldir and nescrahl ab eldir. I think that's all I need for this story, since Old Ardentian is no longer spoken in Valdegurd.
Ah, I guessed it. And Thorn got it right. Would you translate it dark stars, dark star, or stars of darkness?

I totally understand that. I do that all the time when I'm writing. I've got like...ten docs open of stories I've started, but I don't have the motivation to continue most of them. I'll plug in a sentence here, a paragraph there...
With ancient dialects like that, I can understand why you didn't want to create the whole language. Then there's Tolkien, the over-achiever, hehe.
Dark Star. Foreshadowing? I'm not sure...*rubs hands in an evil manner*

Adobe Flash Player (and Shockwave Flash, which I believe is related) is a dragon-kissed yrch mellon and that is all I need say on the subject, other than that it was at lest partially responsible for my last post on this thread. >.< Also, I like your thoughts on the romance rules. Also, I agree that close friendships don't mean romance, but I can sympathize with your brothers' reaction as well . . . there are certain couples on other battle threads (not CaC2) who I ship very hard, even though there's no way they'll actually happen. I want to know who you ship. Lol. The "I ship very hard" has me intrigued.

The adobe problem is related to Proborads I believe. Same problems here.
Wait Sunblade do you ship CaC2ers?
Gah I should really get back to work/sleep :/
Thanks Wookie!

NightBlade: No, I don't think it's ProBoards that's causing the Adobe Flash Player problems. I had them before I joined Whitehall. WookieeElf: I have the same problem with motivation to keep going on one particular story. The thing I've found works best is to make writing one particular story part of your schoolwork. That's what I'm doing with my OYAN novel. And it's workingāI've stuck with The Teller's Apprentice longer than I have for most other projects. I'm also working on developing a shorter story which I plan to write after I've completed the first draft of tTA, but that's not interfering with writing my primary project at the present time. Yeah. No point creating it if I'm just going to use five different words. Well, regnes, prax-regnul and prax-regnes too, but needing eight words for a story doesn't warrant creating the entire language. I'm not even going to go into its grammar if I don't need to. And Tolkien was a language scholar, far more than I am (although I've studied several different languages), so it was probably much easier for him than for me. Most of my characters' names don't mean anything in particular. So unless I create those languages, I can't foreshadow with their names. But if Dark Star foreshadows what Kara Werda will become, I'm wondering if I want to see what she becomes.

Most of the ships are on Character Chat, and they usually have Audri with various other people . . . who I ship her with changes from time to time. Audri and Rath is my main Audri ship . . . though, Violet might be messing it up a little. And there are some non-Audri ships, or there were at some point . . . my ships start to decay when the characters involved don't show up for ages. The adobe problem is related to Proborads I believe. Same problems here. Wait Sunblade do you ship CaC2ers? Proboards and Cookie Clicker, yes. They're the only two things I regularly have open that use Adobe or Flash. Mmm . . . not really. There's a few couples that I could see happening, but no major ships.

@leilani Sunblade. Lol. XD My main ship was always Rath and Ira, but Makos messes that up a little. And I don't want him to die. So I'd be willing to sink that ship to keep him.

Post by Leilani Sunblade on Mar 30, 2015 12:20:26 GMT
Yeah . . . I shipped Rath and Ira for a little bit (there was a point where I kept going back and forth between Rath and Audri and Rath and Ira), but once Makos shaped up a bit, I liked Makos and Ira much better. So, yeah.

Lol. That works. XD
You should bring your characters on there more!

Post by Leilani Sunblade on Mar 30, 2015 12:32:31 GMT
Yep.
Heh. I think about it, but usually I get too caught up in reading about everyone else's characters. I'll bring someone on now, though, since I have time and I won't be interrupting major emotional trauma. xD Any thoughts on who I should do?

Hmmmm. Dunno. It's always fun when you bring Jared on. Lol

Post by Leilani Sunblade on Mar 30, 2015 12:36:09 GMT
Ok then. xD I figured I'd do that eventually anyway, since Hawke's there and Jared has a threat to make good on. xD

Indeed. Of course, Jared has to actually get the potion first . . .

*nods* Assuming, of course, that Hawke isn't interested in seeing Rath turned into some small animal . . .

Heh . . . actually, seeing as he was the instigator of the original potioned slushie, he probably would be. The problem would be more of who's asking to do it. xD
