A simple ask/rp blog for Rouxls Kaard

[mansiondevil]

Evening, everyone! It’s your best fair host once again! Or should I say, the fairest host! I’m happy to say it’s that time of year again: fair time!

That’s right, I’m hosting another fair at my mansion! And I want you to come along! Or come back if you attended my last one! I certainly hope I didn’t scare you off! Most of you. You know who you were. Don’t be shy to apply if you want to come!

Like any fair, you’ll be free to interact with each other before hand! And the fair itself will be staff hosting games, food, and attractions for guests to interact with! Basically, a fun time to talk to new people and play games! You can stay either at my mansion, or at a nearby hotel!

The tentative date for the fair is June 9th to June 15th. And like last time, it’ll be both for Tumblr and for Discord. As for the group that applies for the discord server, however…Well, I guess I’ll plan a party or something for the 16th.

And you’d better apply quickly! While I’d certainly love for you all to join-believe me, it gets quite quiet in this old place-I’m afraid I can only handle so many. So I’ll be accepting up to 8 helping staff and 20 fair-going guests. An odd number, perhaps, but well this is an odd place.

Interested? Then look below! Rules and application will see you there!

Spade King: We need to talk about your professionalism

Rouxls Kaard, standing on a chair: Thy speaketh mightily brave words for one who is stood in lava!

[rouxlsandworms]

Hey rouxls let's play a game you lost

Oh god, it was Jevil. Not again. He hated dealing with the jester’s antics. Why couldn’t he just stay quiet in that cell? “I wouldt ne’er lose a game to thee, hellion.”

[helaas--pindakaas]

please... if you’re going to attempt to speak in “old” english

THOU is the subject (Thou art…) THEE is the object (I look at thee) THY is for words beginning in a consonant (Thy dog) THINE is for words beginning in a vowel (Thine eyes)

this has been a psa

[gehayi]

Also, because H was sometimes treated as a vowel when the grammar rules for thou/thee/thy/thine were formed,THINE can also be used for words beginning with H. For example, both “thy heart” and “thine heart” appear in Elizabethan poetry.

[veryrarelystable-deactivated201]

For consistency, however, if you’re saying “thine eyes”, make sure you also say “mine eyes” instead of “my eyes”.

Further to the PSA:

Thou/thee/thine is SINGULAR ONLY.

Verbs with “thou” end in -st or -est: thou canst, thou hast, thou dost, thou goest.  Exception: the verbs will, shall, are, and were, which add only -t: thou wilt, thou shalt, thou art, thou wert.

Only in the indicative, though – when saying how things are (“Thou hast a big nose”).  Not in the subjunctive, saying how things might be (“If thou go there…”) nor in the imperative, making instructions or requests (“Go thou there”).

The -eth or -th ending on verbs is EXACTLY EQUIVALENT TO THE -(e)s ENDING IN MODERN ENGLISH.

I go, thou goest, she goeth, we go, ye go, they go.

If you wouldn’t say “goes” in modern English, don’t say “goeth” in Shakespearean English.

“Goeth and getteth me a coffee” NO.  KILL IT WITH FIRE.

Usually with an imperative you put the pronoun immediately after the verb, at least once in the sentence (“Go thou” / “Go ye”).

YE is the subject (Ye are…).  YOU is the object.

Ye/you/your is both for PLURALS and for DEFERENCE, as vous in French.

There’s more, but that’ll do for now.

Oh wow. Reblogging for reference.

Rouxls stared. "Back to the darkworld once more, hero?" (rouxlsandworms)

Kris shuffled in place. “I like the darkworld better than the lightworld anyways, so yeah, I will be here a lot more than I at home.”

[rouxlsandworms]

“Doth the darkworld not hurt nor tire lightners?”

[rouxlsandworms]

A small virtue give rouxl a cheesecake while smiling at him

“How lovely. Thanke thee, dear knave.” He was going to have this tonight.

[rouxlsandworms]

God

“What?”

[rouxlsandworms]

Damnit

"NO.”

[rouxlsandworms]

You have good taste in color (pink) but you! Are! An ASSHOLE!

“Thine party weret IDIOTS!”

[rouxlsandworms]

*someone throws moss at Rouxls*

It hit him smack in the back of the head. He whipped around. “WORM!”

[fairly-out-of-context]

Rouxls: THEN WELCOME, YE DAFT WORME! Kris: IS THAT THE DARK WORLD EQUIVALENT OF DAFT PUNK?

This is giving me flashbacks

[rouxlsandworms]

I just realized this post had a typo the entire time

[rouxlsandworms]

spadestm‌:

a hand found her brow before rouxls could lift a toe, her breath giving free a heavy wave of heated irritation.

✽ no need .

✽ what with his father traumatizing him far beyond what a child should dread to endure, the boy has seen far too much disciplinary abuse in his time .

✽ punishments are meant to be courses of actions taken when one has done wrong intentionally or not, but a simple mistake does not deserve a ruler to one’s wrist .

she always had been the forgiving parent, what with her ways of nurturing & personal growth. her hand moved down to furl fingers into her palms, knuckles grazing her lips in thought.

✽ if anything, lancer should receive a short inconvenience to reprimand his mischief .

✽ early cut - off before he’s sent to bed, take away his mp3, & a simple written acknowledgement apologizing for his misdeed .

He held up a hand in defense. “I meant no violence of the sort, mine lady. I wouldt only instruct the younge spade in what he hath done in err. I wouldt ne’er hurt younge Lancer.” Which was true. As much as Lancer annoyed Rouxls, he wouldn’t do more than get angry. He cared too much to do more than yell or tell Lancer to stop.

Not that he would admit it.

Rouxls then held his hands together in front of his chest. “But if thee wish for me to send the younge spade to bed early, I couldt do so.”
