I was deputed to register my aunt’s death at the Windsor Registrar’s office. I was shown into the room of a rather fierce-looking lady and we went through the formalities while she ticked the relevant boxes.
At a certain point, she fixed me with a beady eye and asked, ‘Right, what was the husband’s occupation?’ It seemed a superfluous question; however, after a second’s hesitation, I answered, ‘King’. I think Queen Elizabeth might have found that almost amusing.

Call me a hater but continuously seeing the trailer for Iron Claw and hearing them say the Von Erich family is the best family in wrestling history is a bunch of bullshit. The Hart Family and their extended family (British Bulldog etc), shit the fucking Anoa’i/Fatu family tree they’re all better than the racist trash of the Von Erichs. DUSTY RHODES AND HIS SONS!!! THE BRISCOES! Okay I’m done
Hi ! I'm looking for a fic, even though I think it might have been delated... It's a fic where the team comes back from a mission, and everyone bet how long Pete is gonna last before he falls asleep. Then he trys to prove he can stay awake for 20 min, and end up sleeping on Tony's lap. I remember Rhodey bringing him some kind of confort blanket or toy in a suitcase. Hope you can help me find it :)
Sorry for the wait, this is for you!
A Stubborn Teenager Vs Adrenaline Crash by thisisnotourlasthunt
The Avengers are back from a mission but instead of going to rest, they need to debrief with Fury.
Unluckily for Tony, Peter's adrenaline crash won't let him stay awake for much longer.
Double unluckily for Tony, Peter wants to prove everyone wrong and stay awake for more than 20 minutes.
Who do you think will win, the Stubborn Teenager or the Adrenaline Crash?
Today's 123 Rhodes Island translation. Today it's Hellagur! I love him!!! <- Person with a lvl1 e0 with 1 pot that they got from random recruitments. To my knowledge nobody TL'd this one yet so wow debut
TL notes: the SFX in the last panel for the first comic is literally just the sound of "object falling a long distance" thats the literal translation, so I just made a sound that sounds like that
Anyways comic 2 panel 1 has the line "Is this us?" the original Chinese is "这是我们的形象吗" which literally is "Is this our likeness" but since these are children talking, I went with a much simpler way of saying something like that.
the in last panel of the same comic Amiya says "这是用来砍人的刀吧。" which literally means "Thats the blade you use to cut people." its honestly a Translation that can go either way honestly, I just thought "same sword you use in battle" flowed better thats all
The last little blurb is more "you have to pay attention to hygiene" since it has the character 要 in front which is like want/will/must, but since its a small blurb I went with a much shorter phrase.
As always, this is just practice so feel free to say your criticisms on my translations. Feel free to repost or use my translations elsewhere as long as you credit me.
Got curious about how many Operators had "Outstanding" for Combat Skill in their profile and went through every character profile (272) to find out how many there were
Eight + one Chongyue
So 8/272 Operators have an Outstanding for their Combat Skill and two of them are 5*s. These eight are:
Nearl the Radiant Knight
Mlynar
Hellagur
Qiubai
Gladiia
Ch'en
Then the two 5*s
Lappland
Projekt Red
Somehow these two Wolves join this very exclusive club despite being 5*s but then I don't think their rarities line up with what they actually are capable of. Kinda funny it's just two Siracusan Lupos however.
