Tagged by @thehappybaker 6 times, @winterinhimring 4 times, @musewrangler 2 times, and @catkin-morgs-kookaburralover 1 time for the WIP tag game.
Rules: If you are tagged, you have to work on your WIP until you write a sentence that contains at least one word from the sentence given to you by the person who tagged you. Then post that sentence and tag as many people as you want. Tag-backs are not only allowed, but encouraged! >:)
Additionally I was tagged for the Last sentence tag game, by @thehappybaker 5 times, @afaroffsong 2 times, @winterinhimring 2 times and @called-kept 1 time.
RULES: Post the last sentence you wrote (fanfic / original / anything) and tag as many people as there are words in the sentence.
So what I did two days ago was copy and paste every sentence that I had to choose a word from for the WIP tag game into a note, and set to writing. I wrote 216 words, found a word for each sentence I was tagged from, and got unstuck at the same time. Here’s my progress in one chunk, rather than a whole bunch of disconnected snippets, which I think gives enough unused sentences to make up the ones for the Last sentence tag game. And okay, because this seems more impressive/interesting (maybe) when it’s posted as a whole.
The more she observed him, the more his shyness seemed an unnatural thing to him.
Lachlan had been deemed just old enough to be careful and take his meal in with his Da, though not of course to take in the tray. Erran had volunteered for that, and so when they finished at the table and while the dishes were being cleared away, Erran also retrieved the tray and brought it to her.
“[name] says to say it was delicious. Lachlan seconds that.”
“Thank you,” she said. She was surprised he’d thought of retrieving it for her and didn’t care if he knew it. She’d thought he would be on his way back out with Alastair and Tann…but no, they were helping the girls clean the table.
“Thank you again for the meal,” he returned with a crooked smile. “My cooking doesn’t turn out nearly so well, and,” he lowered his voice just a little, “Wynn’s is better than mine, but he doesn’t have your knack either, so it’s not just a matter of experience.”
“Some of it is, I’m sure,” she said. “You do enough of it every day for growing children and it begins to come easier to you. How long have you cooked for yourself?”
He thought for a moment before answering. “It’s been a few years since I was doing all of it. A friend of mine stayed with me for a bit when I first moved near here. He was somewhere between you and Wynn in skill, and took more than his share of the turn cooking. He certainly enjoyed it more than I did.”
He sounded a little wistful as he spoke.
Used words:
back, and, she, was, they, smile from @thehappybaker
but, experience from @musewrangler
she from @catkin-morgs-kookaburralover
He’d, his, she’d, he from @winterinhimring
You wascally wabbits are all tagged back, once for each tag game, but that’s all I’m up for.

So, because I just wanted to share. Now that I am wasting the precious small time I can make in the Duolingo High Valyrian verse instead of trying to RP, I realized that the valyrian translators me and other fellow rpers have used in interactions, do not translate accurately. As in, structurally. Because High Valyrian is a head-final language, it’s not the same as English would be structured.
For example, “Your dragon is eating my dog” would translate to “Aōha zaldrīzes ñuha jaos iksis eating ( it doesn’t translate this word )”.
The correct translation would be “Aōha zaldrīzes ñuha jaos ipradas”, which would be from the literal english structure of “Your dragon my dog is eating”.
For “you are powerful” would be “kostōbon iksā” as opposed to how it would literally translate form english into “iksā kraj”.
“You are beautiful” = “gevie iksā” ( literal ‘beautiful you are’ )
“I see the wolf” = “Zokla urnen” ( literal ‘wolf i see’ )
So yeah, ever since I started the course, now because the muse of course demands it, I have to try to structure the english into the high valyrian way to try and translate it as close to correctly as possible but even the translators don’t have the words that I have learned in the course so I’m actually pleased, so it’s not been a total waste I guess?

Anyone else screaming and sobbing and counting the approximate days until the rumored fall final finale? Anyone else having the Feelings™ tonight from the sweet precious vibes and the sad painful vibes and the intense heart-pounding vibes? Because holy shit I am currently unable to function after that roller coaster cliffhanger of an hour. :')
