#it's pronounced rules

[the-unrelated-theorist]

I was thinking about how "It's Pronounced Rules" is a much more whimsical theme than "Rouxls Kaard." If we go with the general game theorist assumption that the overall aura of a location or character is what influences the music for that place or person- which seems to hold true with Unrelated characters; for instance, Alphys' theme sounds awkward and nervous, whereas Undyne's themes are bold, strong, and totally in-your-face- then is the shift to a sillier theme for Rouxls an indication that he may be taking himself less seriously in Chapter 2? After all, he did work with Sweet Cap'n Cakes on fixing up the Thrash Machine, which is something I wouldn't have imagined him doing in Chapter 1 (working with others, I mean).

Also, "It's Pronounced Rules" includes a bit of "Lancer," which "Rouxls Kaard" did not have. Coupled with the fact that Rouxls has a slightly longer bit of dialogue about Lancer in Chapter 2 than in Chapter 1, he may be relaxing just a tiny bit about being Lancer's Lesser Dad.

Anyway, I hope so. I love the Lesser Dad dynamic.

thinking about how the (greek) big three swore to never sire any more demigod children because those children are just too powerful (dangerous) and also thinking about how the characters that, arguably, seem to have the greatest proclivity for cruelty in the name of justice or vengeance are also the (greek) big three children... there's something there, a connection to be made I'm sure of it

#and its not just cruelty... #its like this spiraling into... darkness? power? #for percy and nico at least #thalia we dont get to see as much and I need to reread ttc #but like... she's SO tempted by power #its like she has to actively fight against those base instincts to rule (like her father) #when she chooses the hunters #she removes her role (her power her agency) in the great prophecy #and idk I feel like there's subtext there that she's worried what she would have done had she been the prophecy child #but sincerely there's something about greek big three kids thats off kilter #and that aspect only gets more pronounced as time goes on and they get older #like not only are they scarily powerful #but their mental states are just... messy #almost like in comparison to other demigods #they're a little more god a little less mortal if that makes sense #and they have to fight to maintain that mortality (their humanity)

GOLD RULE--BROWNBLOOD

Crimkt

A brownblood toddler. Their lusus, direwolfdad, was eager to take on a charge and hid how sick it was. They are one of Melosa’s wards, and she’s asked other troll kids living in the complex’s bottom layer to check on them daily. They only know their first name.

Sign of early spring(late winter). Page of Space. Camel Cricket Morph.

#polls #language #pronunciation #spelling #i think this is a more precise version of a poll I made like last year #hopefully this phrasing is clear #like #would you confidently pronounce 'andromache' because its spelling signals its origin #or would you guess 'andro... maysh?' bc you don't recognize the language and/or know its pronunciation rules

hi! how did judge learned hand get their name?

I looked at him and went, WOW, that is a cat with opinions

which is, of course, what Judge Learned Hand is famous for.

#he's most known for his rulings on freedom of speech #which this cat believes in FIRMLY #also it is pronounced Learn-ED not learned #in his name #for anyone who's familiar in a read-not-said sort of way

What if I also gave Cheery glasses.

#discworld #discworld fanart #gnu terry pratchett #I think I also had a sailor fuku cheery (sans glasses) from earlier #I'm obsessed with giving everyone glasses #I think #although I couldn't think why because I look hideous in them #long hair is violating all lab safety rules! #Tie it back! #discworld glasses club is expanding still #cheery littlebottom #pronounced #cheri littlebottom

For your prompt, then maybe a broken bone? Or passing out? Whatever you prefer, no certain fandom, you decide✨

decisions are hard :( i'm thinking about mash now though so i think it'll be mash 😅

“...Hawkeye?”

“Put a mask on, Radar.”

“Oh-” the kid reaches for his face for a second before shaking his head. “You’re not in surgery anymore, Hawk.”

This time when he opens his eyes, Hawkeye actually looks around. “Why the hell not?”

“Oh, gee, do you not remember?”

“Gimme the footnotes. And help me stand up.”

“I don’t know Hawk, you’re lookin’ really pale.”

“Dammit, Radar-”

“Colonel said it was the ether. ’Cause you ran out of the- the- look, I don’t know to say it. The sleepy drug.”

“Did it start with an ‘s’?” Before Radar has a chance to answer, Hawkeye waves him off. “Forget it. Tell me I didn’t fall in my patient.”

“Oh, no sir. You fell backwards. Into Hunnicut.”

“Oh, good, a damsel in distress falling into the man of my dreams.” Eyes still slightly glassed over, Hawkeye reaches out for Radar with one hand, the other pushing up on the wooden box currently keeping his body off of the ground. “Help me up- how many left in pre-op.”

“Colonel said to bring you to the swamp.”

As if he didn’t hear the last sentence, Hawkeye adds, “And grab me a new mask, wouldja?”

#i cannot for the life of me remember what episode it was that they had to use ether as an anesthetic #but hawkeye looked SO wobbly that episode. he was TOTALLY about to faint i don't make the rules #i also appreciate radar's canonical unable to pronounce medications he has to write the requisitions for. he is trying his best <3 #in which vi actually writes #prompts #mash #M*A*S*H #hawkeye pierce #radar o'reilly #couldn't decide whether or not mulcahy or radar would be there but i figured mulachy has more of a stomach for surgery so he went back in #and radar was left with the admittedly more difficult job of hawkeye wrangling

How do you say worcesteershsire sauce

Idk why ur asking this but unfortunately i studied linguistics in college so im gonna send a pointlessly specific answer.

I speak general american english & i usually say it like one of these (rough IPA transcription in brackets; closest word approximation in parentheses, but this may only work to read if u also speak gen american english):

[wʊs.tr.ʃɑɪr] (wuss-ter-shire)

[wʊs.tr.ʃir] (wuss-ter-sheer)

sometimes [wɔr.tʃɛs.tr] (war-chess-ter), but I think I mainly said that as a kid? I don't think it's an uncommon pronunciation in america tho. idk i might b wrong.

I think [wɔr.tʃɛs.tr.ʃɑɪr] (war-chess-ter-shire) and [wɔr.tʃɛs.tr.ʃir] (war-chess-ter-sheer) are possible pronunciations ive heard here too

None of these are how it's pronounced in the UK, i think. iirc I think it's [wʊs.tə] (wuss-tuh). I dont know much abt british eng tho so idk.

Sauce is [sɑs] (the "a" sound in "father").

Tbh i dont eat worcestershire sauce (i dont like most condiments) so i dont really say this word often LMAO;;

#sorry for annoying answer #also yeah i used [r] instead of [ɹ]. i was trying to be 2% less pretentious. #sorry if my transcriptions are wrong in other ways i havent been in school for like 4 years #replies #if you truly wanna know how i pronounce this word you can look up 'worcestershire sauce american pronunciation' on youtube or sth idk #i think the 'officially accepted' american pronunciation (like the one that shows up in dictionaries and stuff) is wuss-ter-sheer but #im p sure ive heard all of these. there's a lot of variation bc it's just a long-looking word and isn't a place here #also like the rule (?) of 'blahblah-shire' being pronounced 'blahblah-sheer' or 'blahblah-sure' isn't rly strong here so a lot of british- #placed ending in '-shire' get pronounced like '-shyer' #idk if this is what that ask was about but yeah whatever #(also was too lazy to use ipa for those last tags so pls bear w my rough spelling approximations.)

How do you pronounce the name of your CaelOS ocs?

for aster it's just like their namesakes are pronounced! the wikipedia pages have pronunciation guides. Urs is like how you'd say Ursa Major but drop the "a"

IPA can be a bit difficult though, so this is the closest i can give you to spelling those out:

Rigel - RAI-jel

Vega - VEE-gah or VEI-gah

Aldebaran - AL-deh-buh-ran (kinda what you see is what you get kinda pronunciation)

Urs - OO-rs or IR-s (IR as in "girl". the latter is how wikipedia lists it. im not too sure how to spell it out? and the former is how i actually tend to say it)

and Aster is just AH-ster, like the flower or given name

#ask post #idk how english leaning is for native speakers but we studied IPA before anything else basically #there's also a bit of a bias since i'm a native russian speaker: #i'm more used to the letters sounding exactly what they look like rather than relying on pronunciation rules of british/american english #if the words look foreign to the language. i pronounce japanese names differently to how i hear english speakers say them for instance
