    LOL, thank you! I’ve never watched anime (ever… XD) but you and Calidris are this close to convincing me to watch Haikyuu XD

    Oh my goodness, DO. It is a work of art! It looks unassuming and somewhat uninteresting, but the characters are amazing. There’s a reason it’s one of the best-loved sports animes, even among people (like me) who have no interest in sports!

    Ohhh, that’s too cool! I tend to use the folk-names in Dutch for a lot of flowers, then translate them loosely XD The only example I can think of is “Whistleweed” which is the Dutch name for Queen Anne’s lace. I thought it was a pretty name in and of itself, so I just translated it XD

    Oh, that’s a pretty (and usable-in-fantasy) name for Queen Anne’s lace!

    Haha, “People with butter on their heads shouldn’t stand in the sun” sounds very sensible though xD

    LOL, don’t you just love when one of your POV characters is being lovely and sweet and handing you ideas and the other one is lying facedown in the dirt, screaming and refusing to budge XD It happened with Liorah and Aydin earlier, I think you can imagine who did what XD

    I thankfully don’t have that experience with TFE xD Pax and his companions are very cooperative, most of the time. Not the same story with my other WIPs though…

    Wait, everyone else likes romance? XD

    I mean… I guess? It seems like it. And I like a good shippable romance just as well as anyone.. but only if it’s done well 🙁 Which more often than not it isn’t. But it’s all right… the few good ones are worth the search, imo xD

    I think I expected it because that’s what happened to me when I was little, when we went back to South Africa for a visit. I was so excited to see my friends again because I’d really missed them. And then they’d all forgotten me and didn’t want anything to do with me 😅 Looking back on it, I mean, we were like five, that’s what little kids do, but at the time I couldn’t get it and it stung enough that I remembered.

    Aw, that’s understandable 🙁 I’ve never had quite the same experience, but they’re similar enough to relate!
