Okay, the fact that the story is set in pl got me absssolutely sold. I can now imagine the gang going to żabka on their way back from the mission. I absolutely love it.

hell yes, the image of those menaces, with blood on uniforms just buying hot dogs in Żabka 😂

Hore name story time!! I named mine after my favourite art history profesor, who is a certified horse lover. She translated a tome of Callimachus poetry in a stable, trying to get a pee sample from a sick horse. Later she smuggled two jars of horse pee from Germany (where she lives) to Poland (where she has classes with us) because it’s cheaper to get it tested here(one jar broke on the way). She also smuggled back horse medicine. Recently she had an online lecture about different words for different kinds of bridle bits in greek and roman poetry and, while showing us the power point presentation, she kept pulling out of nowhere bridle bits she uses. It was unique experience.

hore...... mdnfkjdsfs ok i'm sorry

she sounds incredible i love horse people

nimiana replied to your post: nasu's editors in 2005: NASU! you can't just write...

I’m pretty sure that camelot writing is an allusion to crusades and how it destroyed Jerusalem and Near-East world.

camelot involves the knights of the round table erecting a walled city that keeps out immigrating refugees of color they created, it’s an allusion to a lot of things

nimiana replied to your post “i keep saying this but i really am so excited for lucio route HOW are...”

everything about lucio screams to me "a man who wants to have his dick stepped on" and i'm more than willing to do than when it comes to his route

lucio is to the very core a man who is begging to get hard dommed into submission and I am more than willing to comply to this silent but blatant request

@suspected-spinozist

I can't really comment, but this is deeply confusing to me given you're a native speaker of Italian

like, I speak English, they're pretty much equally dissimilar

...the irony isn’t lost on me if I have to be honest, and if we’re purely talking about vocabulary then yes, Latin tends to be easier, considered all the similarities. But like, if you put a Greek text and a Latin text in front of me, and I translate them both, I’m... usually going to say that the Greek one felt easier to translate than the other one. Idk, honestly statistics confirm that I’m the weird one here, since if you ask to the 95% of Italian classicist students they’re gonna say that Latin is the easier language for them, judging from personal experience.

@nimiana

omg same

when i'm seeing latin text is so confusing at the first point, with greek i look at it and just understand how it works? maybe it's because i know modern greek?

I don’t even know modern Greek and YET here I am. But yes, it’s exactly that for me too? Somehow syntactic structure just worked with Greek whenever I translated it, with Latin sometimes I was just like--- what the fuck is going on here?

Also @Clara too, I think maybe it also has something to do with the very fact that a lot of words in Latin feel familiar to me, so my brain might just attempt to adjust them as if I were reading Italian instead. Maybe it fucks up my understanding of Latin proper. That obviously doesn’t happen with Greek, it’s its own language.

I absolutely LOVE that you made m!Lea trans and it was not flashed out like „beware ye folks this person is trans” but more like „oh by the way he is trans”. Like, trans men are men. Not a specific other category. It makes me so happy to see other trans people normalised like that 💖💖💖 Also, I adore the story, the characters and the latest revelations only made me fall in love in your world more.

exactly!!! and thank you for the kind words 💗lea is very near and dear to me so it means a lot to see people so excited about them 💕💖
