Love doesn't always needs words. Let my kisses speak. Let my lips tell you how much I love you.

L'amour n'a pas toujours besoin de mots. Laisse parler mes baisers. Laisse mes lèvres te dire combien je t'aime.

Music: Les Moulins de Mon Cœur by Michel Legrand.

Yk. I like to force people into listening my musik. So today in English class, I lent my earthling cd to a friend of mine. The substitute teacher saw that and dropped "J'aime david bowie" (I like david bowie) (idk why she said it in French, ig that's French teacher syndrome) and then she asked my friend, what her fav bowue song was. She said I'm afraid of Americans. So the teacher just played it on her phone.

#french teacher syndrome #like that word #anyways i told her as a joke to just use cd player in our classroom #(she actually was looking for that cd player cable for the rest of the lesson then)#quinns daily yapping post #david bowie

on a deep & fundamental level i don't think whoever decided to allow a maximum of four language settings on my phone's android keyboard understands me. why not five. why not six. why not..... ten

#i've been bumping into this for weeks now. there are three that i use in a practical sense on a daily basis. so those need to stay #the fourth is currently french which i truly don't Need but do Want #so to get something else i COULD swap that one out but it would come with. just. annoyances. when i go on my next duolingo binge #but that leaves 2-3 others that i also Want. and i could easily invent a few more! my desires are MUCH closer to ten than four #does the fact that i don't actually speak russian mean that i shouldn't spend a few hours answering little app prompts #and learn a few isolated words and phrases out of curiosity??? for fun? with a cyrillic keyboard and russian predictive text?#FOUR language settings? this is actually where orwell got the final number in the title of his book from :(#*

"It is nineteenth century up to date with a vengeance."

Wow. Every time I read this specific moment of Dracula I'm always shook.

"It is nineteenth century up to date with a vengeance. And yet, unless my senses deceive me, the old centuries had, and have, powers of their own which mere "modernity" cannot kill."

#dracula daily #draculadaily #dracula #I was going to write an essay about fantastic literature in French and English but let's just those words sink #makes me want to play Bloodborne again

negotiation | visual prison, hyde/dimitri/ange

"Why exactly are you here?" Hyde asks.

Perpetually frozen on the threshold of adulthood, Ange doesn't look so very different than when he first arrived in Harajuku and upended the lives of every vampire he came across - present company most certainly included. But that little lost dhampir would never have met Hyde's eyes and answered his question with such confidence as Ange does now.

"I want to be hurt more than Guil enjoys hurting me."

On the sofa to Hyde's right, Dimitri leans in, elbows on his knees, his interest piqued. "A splendid answer. But tell us - just how does Guil enjoy hurting you?"

"To give us some idea of what you're used to," Hyde clarifies on his behalf. But Ange's already nodding his understanding.

"Just spanking, with his hands. Hard - but no toys or anything."

"You do understand," Hyde says, "that impact play can be a great deal more intense - and more painful - than spanking."

Ange nods again, without so much as a flicker of hesitation. He leans in towards them, subconsciously mirroring Dimitri's posture. "I do. I'm not... I don't know exactly where my limits are? But I'm not going to find out with Guil. And I'm curious."

Now that is a splendid answer, and one that arouses Hyde's curiosity as well. It's been a very long time since Hyde's played with someone as young and inexperienced as Ange, but then, it's been just as long since he's had someone with this much promise to play with...

Dimitri's laughter brings him back out of his thoughts. "I think you've caught Hyde's attention, little pup."

Hyde considers Ange for a moment - compares the performer he's come to know well with the boy sitting here now, eager and earnest, and by all indications more than up for a challenge. In this new, more intimate context, Dimitri's little pet name makes him flush, fingers curling around the edge of his seat as he tries not to squirm. Yes, he certainly has caught Hyde's attention. The question is, does he know what to do with it?

"Unless Guil has changed a great deal since we parted ways, I assume you take a more dominant role with him?" Ange's cheeks flush hotter, but he nods. "Does submission appeal to you at all?"

"Yeah. It does." He swallows hard - looks away for just a moment, collecting his thoughts. "I do like being in charge of Guil. But seeing how calm he gets, how... safe he feels, when he submits to me - I can definitely see the appeal. I think I'd like that a lot."

When Hyde glances to Dimitri, he finds Dimitri looking back, no doubt thinking the same thing; why don't we find out? Ange might not know just what he likes, yet, but he clearly knows what he's asking for, what he's getting himself into. Though really, that should come as no surprise; Guil never would have handed him over had he not been sure Ange could meet Dimitri and, especially, Hyde's high expectations.

"Would you like to play with us tonight?" Dimitri asks.

"Yes," Ange says.

"I intend to hurt you tonight," Hyde says. "More than Guil has hurt you. But while I may very well encounter your limits, I would take no pleasure in surpassing them. If anything either of us does to you is too much - if you want to stop for any reason at all, even momentarily - you need only say so. Do you understand?"

"I understand."

"What an obedient little puppy," Dimitri coos, and the way Ange shivers, suddenly unable to meet either of their eyes, suggests they'll have a very pleasant evening indeed.

#visual prison #ange yuki #hyde jayer #dimitri romanee #fanfic #word arts #fun fact: while editing this for tumblr i spent twenty minutes agonizing over terminology #then decided that if all of ange's play partners are sexy french vampires #(plus one sexy hungarian vampire) (not featured in this ficlet)#the japanese kink scene isn't suuuuuuper relevant here #and that's your daily insight into the writing process

Mom speaks in a weird botched English that she mixes with Italian & dialect and no one understands her. I speak fairly decent English and yet here no one, no one understands me, and they all look at me like I'm a fucking madman for attempting to ask information about a camping site, like oh I'm sorry if we've been driving around for six hours and we haven't seen a shower in two days we just need a place for the night

#I know this is a long post but I don't know how to do that 'long post thing read more etc' so yeah sorry #how is it possible that the bloody receptionist in every camping site we find doesn't know a single word in English #ok ok I know fuck the English & empire bad and appreciating other languages good #and I'm not asking the old woman in the lost country village to know it I'm asking a fucking receptionist! that deals with tourists #amd that deals with tourists daily #I don't believe that every German tourist knows an impeccable French I'm sorry i don't believe it #anyway I wanted to study french nect year yet now I'm thinking of studying German just out of spite #sorry again tomorrow I'll think differently I know but I'm just fucking exhausted #personal

Lilies

@sapphicmicrofics

Pairing: Luna Lovegood/Lily Luna Potter Rating: M WC: 50

*****

“Paint me, please, Luna?” Lily asks. Forbidden fruit. That’s what she is, earth-brown eyes warm and irresistible. Luna frames the portrait in her mind, fingers itching for paintbrushes. A bed of white lilies ensconcing the prettiest of them, splayed with only coppery strands to hide her nakedness. “Alright,” she agrees.

Honestly I’m trying to learn at least a little portugese on duolingo because I think it would be cool to see what brazilian qsmp fans are saying without a translator... I’m already a little there because a decent amount of words carry over from spanish (highlight of today was translating a word from portugese to spanish easily but then having to remember what that word meant in english which was. harder than it should have been.) I don’t really have any hope in being able to watch streams just because I barely watch english streams as-is and carving out time to watch them in a different language just seems hard, but i figure if I can at least read it decently it would already be so cool!!

#the word was literally 'tan' i hear this on a daily basis I don't know what's wrong with me #awesomest part of the qsmp was me finding out that not all languages fuck with my brain as much as french does <-#what did they put in there like it should make sense but it doesn't

accalmie : nf. moment de calme temporaire après de l'agitation.

ex : Nous profitons de l'accalmie entre les deux batailles.

2/10

lull : a temporary interval of quiet or lack of activity.

Is often used in a sailing context, and would then refer to the calm between two big gusts of wind!
