Another one, I know. (Destinyshipping fic, spoil 'my not my never' child/teen @breathlessmorro.). But is more a fluff one. I think. Enjoy.

Powers, my love? - Part 1.

Morro and Kai have been in a relationship for a year and a few months already. They were happy with each other. The days together were amazing for them. Kai had met Morro for the first time because of Lloyd's help. They told everyone one day that his cousin was moving to town and he was excited about it. (Especially since they hadn't seen each other in years, Morro not knowing about the Garmadon family's problems until a few days after he came to town.) When he first saw him, he saw an emo and slightly shy boy, but with a tough personality, dreaded if you touched a blond hair of Lloyd's. Kai couldn't believe Morro was really Lloyd's cousin. They were so different from each other. Hair color skin, language, that's what he think until he find out it's actually adopted. They began to meet more often (because Lloyd wanted his best friend and cousin to get along), and the flame ignited. When Lloyd found out about Kai's relationship with Morro, he didn't expect his plan to have such a great result. He had agreed to their relationship, even pleased with it. Kai didn't expect that either, not to mention Morro who was confused at the beginning of their relationship, he thought it was all just a dream, a fiction, he didn't think anyone would love him and yet.. he found someone. They had kept this relationship a secret until they were quite comfortable with the idea of the rest knowing about it.

But they both kept a secret from each other. Elemental Powers. Kai kept his firepower hidden from Morro, and Morro kept his windpower from Kai. They both kept it a secret, and to this day, everything has gone well with this secret concealment of power.

Kai opened his eyes slowly. The light coming from the sun came straight into his eyes. He turned his heavy head to the seat next to it. Morro slept soundly, a few strands of hair hanging down his slightly pale face. Kai turned completely to his lover, staring at him. He could feel the fire in him wanting to come out. It was hard to control himself not to create a heart of fire for his love every time he did something adorable or felt that he did not know how to show/express his love for him. But he couldn't do it. He risked his identity as a Fire Ninja, Red, Flame, he risked endangering both of them.. and he didn't want that.

Morro felt his dream slowly crumble, his eyes hard to open. When he opened them a little, he could already see a smile on someone face.

"Morning..." He said softly, feeling his throat dry.

"Morning mi corazón." Kai approached Morro's face, kissing his forehead softly.

Morro in response, approached him to warm up a little, maybe he will fell asleep. It seemed strange to him how Kai was much warmer at times, but when he asked him about it, he had received the answer that it was only because he is cold.

"Don't fall asleep again. You just woke up." He said with a smile.

Morro couldn't stop an innocent grin. "And what if I fall asleep again?~"

"I'll be forced to throw cold water at you to really wake up."

"Oh no, not at all. I'm sick of it. Do you want me to be sick?"

"N-no..?"

"Exactly. Just another five minutes..."

"Okay. Just five minutes." He had begun to stroke his thick, black hair.

------

Ninjas had to patrol the city every night. Just two. And tonight, Wu put Wind and Flame.

"Your serious now?" Wind said, rolling his eyes.

"This is the truth." Flame said, looking at the starry sky outside before he left.

"Why did Wu put me with you?" He said unfriendly.

"You say it like it's a bad thing."

"Maybe it is."

Flame said nothing more, wishing this patrol would end quickly so he could go home. He missed someone and thought of a good excuse for being late. The patrol went fast. Nothing new for the two of them. Wind and Flame were good at fighting, but in conversation and socializing, they needed work.

"Well, end of patrolling for tonight. It's late, I should run home quickly."

Wind looked at him. "Why? Parents, brother, sister?"

"Beloved boyfriend." He said calmly.

"Oh." He lowered his head. He didn't know why, but hearing him say that word, he had done it... "Mhm. Go then. Don't let him wait for you." He said in a tone with a little venom in it, disappearing from Kai's vision like the wind.

"What's with him? No, you know something Kai? It doesn't matter what's with him. I still wonder who's under the mask. Who could Wu trust to have these powers...?"

------

Morro arrived home first. The last conversation with Flame had left him in a bad mood. He wanted to make coffee, but that wouldn't calm him down, so he resorted to his father's method of tea. He went into the bedroom first, no sign of Kai. He could feel the bizarre state in him growing. He left a cold wind behind him, filling the room with a restless cold air.

Kai reached the front door of the apartment. He repeated his apology in his mind.

"Okay Kai. You can do it. Calm down, you know the words." He pressed the doorknob. When he entered, a strong mint smell struck him, with a cold wind as well. "Uh... tea?" He closed the door, rushed inside. At the kitchen table was the brunette, with a cup in his hand, frequently hitting it with his nails painted light blue and black. "Morro? Uh... are you okay?"

"Mhm.. Yes. Why? Problems? " Morro didn't want it to sound so harsh, but he was still on needles.

"Nope. None." He approached him, placing one of his hands on Morro's back. "¿Disgustado?"

"¡No entiendo cuál es SU problema!" Morro started. Not realizing what language he was in. "¡Incluso estaba tratando de tener una conversación normal con Él! Y comienza con eso y- ugh..!" He threw his head on the table, but he had hit the cup of tea with his forehead, overturned the cup, letting the mint liquid run down the tablecloth, which flowed slowly on the edge and on the floor. "Fuck this!!" He screamed, feeling like he was about to throw the cup against the wall. Instead, he picked it up, placing it violently on the table. He rose from his chair, taking a few steps that swirled in a circle walk, his fingers gripped by his disheveled, disheveled black hair.

Kai was just looking at him. Morro had rare moments like this. When he had the first one, it was from an old frustration that happens again. Then he managed to calm him down because he knew the reason, but now he didn't understand him.

"Hey, hey.. it's okay. It doesn't matter that you spilled it and stained the tablecloth. It can be washed. Calm down." Kai try to calm him down with the tea problem.

Morro wanted to scream, but he was holding him in. He didn't know how he could do that, knowing that in moments like this he would throw almost everything out of his soul. The brunette looked at him, his nails still in his scalp. He had taken a few breaths.

"Okay.. Okay.. I'm calm. I'm calm." Morro had taken a few steps to where they kept the water, putting it in a cup and drink it all in one go. "Can we.. forget about it, please? And just sit in bed, fall asleep in each other's arms...?" He said softly, feeling his hands tremble.

Kai smiled slowly. He did not want to insist on the reason for the crisis, because of the emotional state Morro was in now. "Of course. Come here."

Kai reached for the brunette's waist, coming down for a kiss that had greedily returned him.

------

The Ninjas were urgently call by Wu. Morro had not received the call, nor could he.

"Ninja, you've arrived. ... Where's Wind?" Wu knew their identities in each and every Ninja, and Ninja between them, except Wind. They didn't know who Wind was under the mask, nor Wind who they were under the mask. And they agreed with that. One day they will know about each other.

"I don't know, Master Wu." Zane replied calmly.

"Are you feeling well, Kai?" Wu asked, seeing his restless state.

Kai had muted a little, surprised by the question. "No, no. I'm fine, Sensei."

"You don't look good, Master of- "

"I'm worried!" He interrupted his Sensei. "Morro should have called me or sent me a text an hour ago and he didn't..! What if something happened to him??" They had an agreement with the call or the messages. Morro had a telecaster class after school and told him he would let him know when he went out to see him, but nothing.

"Something to happend to Morro? I think you're kidding Kai." Cole said, knowing the personality of Lloyd's cousin, Wu's son.

"I'm not kidding. It's possible. Morro doesn't know how to fight. He's not like us." That had frightened Lloyd. If he knew the truth, he would have been calm.

"I'm sure my son is fine, Kai." Wu reassured him. He was not afraid that Morro was in any danger, he knew his son. If he was in danger, he would have already announced it. "I say to- " The 'Garmadon' alarm sounds in the room.

"Attack in Ninjago by Lord Garmadon. He now seems to be attacking random places." Nya said, looking at the new target of evil.

"That's... that's where I live!" Kai said quickly, recognizing the place. "When I get Garmadon, I'll- "

"Kai... If Morro is there and that's why he didn't contact you?!" Jay suspected agitatedly.

"Oh no... we have to hurry."

------

Morro didn't care if anyone could see him. The world was in danger, and his instincts came first. When he removed the last person from the building, he turned inside, slamming the doors behind him with a strong wind, blocking them.

"Heh, now let's take care of the rats."

He was walking in the white dust with all his senses on alert. He couldn't see well, but he could hear. Suddenly Morro felt a hand grip his shoulder. He quickly reached for the stranger and knocked him to the ground. From the rising smoke, three Garmadon generals had appeared.

'Looks like I'm going to have some fun today.'

He held out his hands wide, after hitting them against each other. The wind that formed next to the three of them pushed them violently together as he clapped his hands against each other. All that was left in the air was his right hand, which had begun to control the wind that was now above the enemies, pressing against them. Sounds of pain were heard. Dust roamed the room uncontrollably. One of them managed to open his eyes despite the strong wind.

"Who are you?! A monster!? Surely a monster!" He spoke agitatedly, closing his eyes again, feeling the pressure even stronger now.

Morro's eyes gleamed in shock at the generals pressed by his wind.

"Monster! You destroyed everything! The houses, the vegetation, EVERYTHING!!"

Words from the past resound in his head. His hand had begun to tremble and his breath was short of breath.

"I'm not a monster." His tone had become harsh, both hands rising, putting them in a cage pressed by the cold wind. He was about to stop their right to breathe- "Monster!" Everything stood still for a few seconds, leaving his trembling hands to fall past his limp body.

The generals were breathing a lot, telling each other to get out of here as soon as possible, that the guy is crazy, a monster. Morro felt his legs begin to tremble, clinging to the wall with his hand.

"Everything is fine.. is fine.. What was in the past is gone..." He looked around disfigured. The white dust fell slowly to the ground. "I'd better go..."

"Morro!" A voice called his name out of nowhere.

"What the..?" Morro was amazed to hear someone call his name from afar, behind him.

"Morro!" Kai stopped running when he saw his lover. He would have arrived sooner if the door had not been locked. He was too agitated to remember what he was wearing at the moment.

"Kai..?" Morro froze in shock, feeling himself tremble much harder. Now it made sense in his head why it was always so hot and warm..

"I thought something happened to you!" He reached in front of him, taking both Morro's pale hands. Kai looked at him intently to see if he had any scratches or injures. He didn't, it was just filled with white dust and shaking body. He looked into his eyes, which were full of shock and... fear? "Morro, mi corazón, are you okay?"

Morro sat for a while, processing the words spoken by the person who had made him nervous the night before. "You're.. Fire Ninja.. Flame.. Kai, are-are you Him?"

This hit Kai directly in the soul. Only then did he realize what was happening. He knew it made no sense to deny it, it was just a waste of time and words.

"Uh.. yes. Yes I am." He remembered the fighting moves and supernatural powers the generals had feared when they left the building. "How do you know how to fight so well?" If they put the card on the table, put them all on.

The brunette, now with white dust on his head, stared blankly. "Wind. I'm Wind, Kai."

"You're kidding.."

"Not at all." He had created a small tornado with both hands. "See?"

"That explains why- Omg... Were you talking about me last night?"

Morro nodded slowly. His heart was pounding inside him. He didn't know if it was from anxiety, fear, emotions, or even all three or more, but he knew it was starting to hurt. Oh, and those damn memories. Morro now expected Kai to yell at him, even leave him. He expected the worst. He was too afraid to think of a good script. But.. Kai had started laughing.

"No.. I don't.. I don't understand.. Why.. why are you laughing?" He was confused.

"Oh! That explains MUCH better your condition last night." He slowly laughed, slowly squeezing his lover's pale hands. "You just didn't think I'd leave you for that, did you?" Morro looked down guilty. "Omg.. come here." He took him in his arms. "I hid that from you too. And you. We're even. It's nothing serious, mi corazón. On the contrary, I'm much calmer now. Calm that you'll be fine.. I had to think that Wind is Wu's son. It was obvious!"

Morro slammed his fist into his chest, looking him in the eye afterwards. "No. It wasn't. I was behaving completely differently."

"Maybe, but not always." He gripped his face in his fingers.

"I say I played theater well at times- " He had been interrupted by someone's lips on his. The kiss hadn't been a long one, but it had been a calm one for the brunette. "You'd better fly, colorful Ninja.~ You don't want the rest to suspect anything. I can feel them approaching the entrance to look for you."

Kai looke behind him, then glanced back at his boyfriend. "After you know what, I'll be back, okay?"

"Mhm.. Just kiss me already."

"Your wish is my command.~" Kai kissed him again, this time it was a longer one.

T r a n s l a t e :

Kai: "Upset?"

Morro: "I just- I don't understand what HIS problem is! I was even trying to have a normal conversation with Him! And he starts with that and- ugh..!"

Can you do a "past tense for dummies" post for Spanish?

Okay so bare bones overview

Spanish has two tenses for past tense - preterite and imperfect

Preterite is the easy one. It’s used as simple past. Things that are completed and totally finished and specifically things with set time phrases use the preterite. These are the “action” parts of a sentence in the past

Me senté en el sofá. = I sat down on the sofa.

Leí el poema. = I read the poem.

Hablaron con ellas. = They spoke with them (f). Hablaron con ellos. = They spoke with them (m+m, m+f).

No me lo dijeron. = They didn’t tell me (it).

Volví a la oficina. = I returned to the office.

Imperfect tense is more complicated for English-speakers. This is typically the confusing one because English doesn’t have the clear distinction.

I find it most helpful to think of what “imperfect” means linguistically. The term “perfect” means “thoroughly done”, while “imperfect” means “not yet completed fully”

In that sense, imperfect is more typically narrative, description, describing things that “were” happening.

Me sentaba en el sofá. = I was sitting on the sofa.

Leía el poema. = I was reading the poem.

Hablaban con ellas. = They were speaking with them (f). Hablaban con ellos. = They were speaking with them (m+m, m+f).

No me lo decían. = They weren’t telling me (it).

Volvía a la oficina. = I was going back to the office.

These work more narratively and set the scene. They typically introduce the situation, while preterite is often an interruption of action - the thing that actually happens.

Me sentaba en el sofá cuando sonó el timbre. = I was sitting on the sofa when the doorbell rang.

Estaba durmiendo cuando me llamaron. = I was sleeping when they called me.

Pagamos la cuenta mientras estábamos en el restaurante. = We paid the bill while we were in the restaurant.

Note: Telling time is always done in imperfect and most time expressions are done that way

Era la una. = It was one o’clock.

Ya era hora. = It was high time. / Now was the time. [as in “this was the moment.”]

Eran las siete de la mañana. = It was seven o’clock in the morning.

For weather, it can depend. It’s normally imperfect, but it can be preterite in some situations. Normally preterite weather expressions have a specific time frame in mind.

Hacía mucho frío. = It was really cold outside. Hizo mucho frío ayer. = It was really cold yesterday.

Hacía viento. = It was windy. Hizo viento el viernes. = It was windy on Friday.

Hacía calor. = It was hot. El agosto pasado hizo mucho calor. = Last August was really hot.

This weather one is very particular because with preterite it sounds like you’re saying “the entire time”, while imperfect is just a description that may or may not have been completed.

It’s very normally imperfect with the weather, but it is something to keep in mind.

Another very important function of the imperfect tense is “used to”. This can be done with the imperfect tense, or with soler in the imperfect tense [soler doesn’t exist in preterite at all for this reason].

In present tense, soler means “to be in the habit of” or “to do often”, but in imperfect in comes out as “used to”

Llovía. = It was raining. / It used to rain. Solía llover. = It used to rain. [“used to” imperfect only]

Tocaba el piano. = I was playing the piano. / I used to play the piano. Solía tocar el piano. = I used to play the piano. [“used to” imperfect only]

Hablábamos con la vecina. = We were speaking to the neighbor. / We used to speak to the neighbor. Solíamos hablar con la vecina. = We used to speak to the neighbor. [“used to” imperfect only]

Iban a la playa. = They were going to the beach. / They used to go to the beach. Solían ir a la playa. = They used to go to the beach. [“used to” imperfect only]

The hard part of imperfect is deciding how something should be read in English

There’s also some special cases with preterite/imperfect.

Normally, most sentences could be either with the meaning changing slightly like “was eating” vs. “ate”

But there are particular verbs where the meaning will drastically change depending on which one you choose. It’s a more involved topic since it can be difficult to fully explain but I’ll just list the verbs and what they normally mean:

querer in imperfect = “wanted” [what you normally want] querer in preterite = “tried/attempted to”

no querer in imperfect = “didn’t want” [what you normally want] no querer in preterite = “refused to”

conocer in imperfect = “knew (someone/something)”, “used to know” conocer in preterite = “met, became acquainted with”

saber in imperfect = “knew (facts)”, “had knowledge of” saber in preterite = “found out”, “discovered”, “learned of”

poder in imperfect = “was able to”, “could” [what you normally want] poder in preterite = “was successful in doing”, “managed to do” [And by consequence no poder is “couldn’t” as in “did not have the ability” in imperfect, but in preterite it comes out as “failed to do” or “was unsuccessful”]

The other verbs to watch are tener and haber

tener is the wildcard because preterite tener usually means “to physically have” as in “to obtain”. The problem is that there are a lot of expressions that use tener like tener hambre “to be hungry” etc. It’s normally imperfect tener you want, but it’s a case by case basis.

And haber is a style change. Imperfect haber means “there was/were” in an everyday way... haber in preterite is “there was/were” in a shocking way.

Using haber in preterite is typically reserved for reporting on things out of the ordinary and particularly accidents, deaths, and disasters:

Había comida. = There was food.

Hubo un terremoto. = There was an earthquake.

Había mucha lluvia. = There was a lot of rain. [not serious] Hubo mucha lluvia. = There was a lot of rain. [serious, reads like it was a disaster]

This one can also depend on the mood of the sentence, but particularly in journalism you’ll see hubo un accidente “there was an accident”, hubo un robo “there was a robbery”, or hubo un maremoto “there was a tsunami”

Using hubo can happen for specific time phrases like the weather though so keep that in mind, but usually hubo marks a more serious tone

In everyday Spanish, imperfect haber is more common. And using imperfect with haber is what you use when using the perfect tenses:

He hablado con ella. = I’ve spoken with her. [present perfect] Había hablado con ella. = I’d spoken with her. [pluperfect]

Hemos hecho el proyecto. = We have done the project. [present perfect] Habíamos hecho el proyecto. = We had done the project. [pluperfect]

Han dicho la verdad. = They have told the truth. [present perfect] Habían dicho la verdad. = They had told the truth. [pluperfect]

If you need a more detailed explanation of anything I mentioned please let me know. I don’t mind explaining things in more detail, this is just a very large topic so it’s more of an overview.

arguments of those who believe in bbg

“louis would never involve a minor” “he wouldn’t lie to us”

this gives me impotence because clearly they don’t understand that louis and harry didn’t want to have a babygate, why the hell they would want to have one? do you think that one day the two of them got up and said “oh i want to use a woman and a baby to hide my sexuality of course because it's okay to do it and clearly i don't want to come out of the closet”? it’s OBVIOUS that they were forced to do it. besides, following this logic, they lied to us with their beards and used women to cover up their relationship because they wanted to, hahaha you can see that they don’t understand anything about contracts and they use the word “they wouldn’t lie to us” when it suits them.

“the music industry is bad but not that bad”

this is literally a joke, how the hell are you going to consider yourself a larrie and think that “the industry is not that bad”? being larrie you should know perfectly that the music industry is capable of doing what they did to harry and louis and much more, for the music industry it’s never too much. there are thousands of cases where they did the same or worse things but of course, it’s not that bad!

“it’s disrespectful to doubt his paternity” “it’s wrong to think that he is not his son”

this is like ??? i never understood why is “disrespectful” to doubt the paternity of someone like, pulling out the louis case, if i see that a family where everyone has blue eyes and are blond (parents, grandparents, uncles, etc) and a baby is born with brown eyes and brown hair clearly i’m going to think or is adopted or the woman cheated on the man, and it’s not that i’m a disrespectful for realizing that something doesn’t fit, i simply have reasons to think what i think. in the case of louis we doubt his paternity because we have reasons to do so and that doesn’t make us disrespectful?) i will never understand the “disrespectful” behind doubting about something (on any subject).

“freddie is louis’s copy”

this is one is funny because they have the same face hahaha oh.... literally, the kid is photoshopped 😐 the amount of evidence that they photoshop him are countless and it’s not necessary to be an expert in photoshop or genetic to realize it. besides, whenever you say that they photoshop him, they come out with the genetics and clearly they don’t know how it works because i get traits from my parents, i don’t have the same face haha, they are two very different things and yes, there are people who have faces very similar to the one of their parents but it’s not common nor does it occur in all circumstances. to add, not just any blond kid with blue eyes is exacltly like louis :)

“it’s impossible to fake a pregnancy”

false, it is very possible. faking a pregnancy is neither impossible nor difficult (as we can see), there are many cases where it’s suspected that the pregnancy of a celebrity is false (not exclusively due to the issue of closeting but because maybe the woman is infertile and doesn’t want to say it) so it’s very possible haha.

“stop talking about this, what will freddie think when he grows up and see that everyone said that his father was not his father”

the truth is, i would be more concerned about what the minor is going to think when he grows up and sees that his family used him to put in the closet a couple and earn money for that. let’s put it like this: you prefer to believe that the kid is “going to feel bad” because of seen teenagers analyzing their father's life and supporting briana’s family and running the risk that if you are wrong you were supporting people who used a minor to earn money or you prefer not to defend that family and in the case that you were wrong, the worst that will happen is that the kid will “feel bad” for seeing that they said that his father was not his father? in one case you support abusers and in the other you “make the child feel bad”... no possibility is nice but which one do they prefer?

“in that photo you can’t see her belly because of the angle”

wow i just found out that if i take a picture at a certain angle, an 8-month-old belly disappears! tremendous, why dieting if with just one angle i can lose 7 pounds? consistency please.

“briana stole photos of other pregnant women because she had a lot of pressure”

mm how weird that a stranger has so much “pressure” to steal photos right? katy perry is a thousand times more famous than she, therefore she had more pressure and we didn’t see her stealing photos of other pregnant woman😐

“louis hates you”

this one is sad because it makes me sick that people think that louis is capable of hating one of his fans, whatever the thought they has😩 the truth is, i know him well enough to say for sure that he would never hate one of his fans. it’s also funny because a grown man hating teenagers for how they think is quite a failure and clearly louis isn’t a failure nor does he have enough free time to hate us lol.

“get yourself a dad” “you need a dad”

hahahaha this is one of my favorites, not only because it will always be funny that when someone is stupid they blame men for their paternal absence so the fact that they use it as an insult in itself it is funny but it’s even more funny because those of us who don't believe in babygate seem to know what paternal love is because it was very easy for us to realize that louis is not a loving or attentive “father” so it seems to me that those who lack a father are those who believe he is one😬

“deactivate” “weirdo” “kill yourself” “psychopath” etc

i don’t like these ones due to the fact that i find it horrible to insult in that way just for thinking differently, although they make me laugh because the only thing that shows is that they don’t have a single argument to contradict us since if they did they would not resort to insults.

when you send them a masterpost and they reply with “to much text”

this is funny because it’s synonymous of “i know you’re right that’s why i don’t want to read it because if i read it i know i‘m going to think differently and i’m going to look stupid and i don't want to” so when they tell you this is when you're doing it right.

the truth is that the “arguments” that twarries use are practically nil because they never told me other one that isn’t one of these so once again they show that they have no way to justify their timelines.

—————————————————

argumentos de lxs que creen en el bbg

“louis no involucraría a un menor” “el no nos mentiría”

esta da una bronca porque claramente no entienden que louis y harry no querían tener un babygate, como mierda van a querer tener uno? que se piensan que un dia los dos se levantaron y dijeron “uy que ganas de usar a una mujer y a un bebe para ocultar mi sexualidad claro porque esta re bien hacerlo y claramente yo no quiero salir de closet”?? es OBVIO que los obligaron a hacerlo. aparte siguiendo esta lógica ellos nos mientieron con las barbas y usaron mujeres para tapar su relación porque querían jajaja se nota que no entiende nada de contratos y usan el “no nos mentirían” cuando les conviene.

“la industria de la musica es mala pero tampoco tanto”

esta es un chiste literalmente, como mierda te vas considerar larrie y pensar que “la industria no es tan mala”?? siendo larrie deberías conocer a la perfección que la industria de la musica es capaz de hacer lo que le hizo a harry y a louis y mucho mas, para la industria de la musica nunca es demasiado. hay miles de casos donde hicieron cosas igual o peores pero claro, no es mala!!

“es irrespetuoso dudar de su paternidad” “esta mal pensar que no es su hijo”

esta es como ??? nunca entendí lo “irrespetuoso” de dudar de la paternidad de alguien tipo, sacando el caso de louis, si yo veo que una famila donde todos tienen ojos azules y son rubios (padres, abuelos, tios, etc) y sale un bebe con ojos y pelo marrón claramente voy a pensar o es adoptado o la mujer cuerneó al tipo y no es que soy una irrespetuosa de mierda por darme cuenta que algo no encaja, simplemente tengo razones para pensar lo que pienso. en el caso de louis nosotrxs dudamos de su paternidad porque tenemos razones para hacerlo y eso no nos hace unas irrespetuosas de mierda?) nunca voy a enteder lo “irrespetuoso” detras de dudar sobre algo (sobre ningun tema).

“freddie es la copia de louis”

esta da risa porque tienen la misma cara jajaj oh.... literalmente, al pibe lo photoshopean 😐 la cantidad de pruebas de que lo photoshopean son incontables y no es necesario ser un experto del photoshop ni de genetica para darse cuenta. aparte, siempre que decis que lo photoshopean salen con la genética y claramente no saben como funciona porque yo saco rasgos de mis padres, no tengo la misma cara jajja son dos cosas muuy distintas y si, si hay gente que tiene la cara muy parecida a la de sus padres pero no es comun ni se da en todas las circunstancias. para agregar, no cualquier pibe rubio de ojos celestes es igual a louis :)

“es imposible fingir un embarazo”

falso, es muy posible. fingir un embarazo no es ni imposible ni difícil (como podemos ver), hay muchos casos donde se sospecha que el embarazon de una celebridad es falso (no exclusivamente por el tema de closeting sino de que por ahi la mujer es infertil y no lo quiere decir) asi que muy posible es jaja.

“dejen de hablar de esto, que va a pensar freddie cuando sea grande y vea que todos decían que su papá no era su papá”

la verdad yo me preocuparía mas en que va a pensar el nene cuando crezca y vea que su familia lo usó para enclosetar una pareja y ganar plata por eso😳 vamos a ponerlo asi: prefieren creer que el nene se “va a poner mal” porque vea a unxs adolescentes analizando la vida de su papá y apoyar a la familia de briana y correr el riesgo de que si estas mal estuviste apoyando a personas que usaron un menor para ganar plata o preferís no defender a esa familia y en el caso de que estes mal lo peor que va a pasar es que el nene se “ponga mal” por ver que decían que su papá no era su papá? en un caso apoyas a abuzadores y en el otro “haces sentir mal” al menor... ningúna posibilidad es linda pero cual prefieren?

“en esa foto no se le ve la panza por el ángulo”

wow me acabo de enterar que si me saco una foto en cierto angulo se me va a una panza de 8 meses! tremendo, para que hacer dieta si con solo un ángulo ya puedo bajar 7 kilos? coherencia por favor.

“briana robó fotos de otras embarazadas porque tenía mucha presión”

mm que raro que una desconocida tenga tanta “presión” como para robar fotos no? katy perry es mil veces mas famosa que ella por ende tenía mas presión y no la vimos robando fotos de embarazadas 😐

“louis te odia”

esta es triste porque me da pena que haya gente que piense que louis es capaz de odiar a una de sus fans sea el pensamiento que tenga😩 la verdad lo conozco lo suficiente como para decir segura que el jamas odiaría a una de sus fans. también es gracioso porque que un hombre adulto este odiando adolescentes por como piensan es bastante fracasado y claramente louis no es fracasado ni esta tan al pedo como para odiarnos lol.

“conseguite un papá” “te falta un papá”

jajajajaj esta es una de mis favoritas, no solo porque siempre va a ser gracioso que cuando alguien es boludo culpen a los hombres por su ausencia paterna asi que lo usen como insulto ya de por si es gracioso pero es aún mas gracioso porque se ve que las que no creemos en el babygate sabemos lo que es el amor paterno porque se nos dio muy facil darnos cuenta que louis no es un “padre” amoroso ni atento asi que me parece que a las que les falta un padre es a las que creen que lo es😬

“desactiva” “down” “mogólica” “inválida” “matate” “droppealo” etc

estos no me gustan por el hecho de que me parece horrible insultar de esa manera solo por pensar distinto, aunque me dan risa porque lo único que demuestra es que no tienen un solo argumento para contradecirmos ya que si los tuvieran no recurririan a los insultos.

cuando les mandas un masterpost y te ponen “mucho texto”

esta es graciosa porque es sinonimo de “se que tenes razon por eso no lo quiero leer porque si lo leo se que voy a pensar distinto y voy a quedar como una estupida y no quiero” asi que cuando te dicen eso es que estas haciendo las cosas bien.

la verdad los “argumentos” que usan las twarries son prácticamente nulos porque nunca me dijieron uno que no sea uno de estos asi que una vez mas demuestran que no tienen manera de justificar sus timelines.

So I may have or may have not written a little essay on the amazing work of @kiirynilcc you should read it if you know Spanish or will translate this too Google. Because I fucking love every single one of their works and as today, this one is my favorite.

En primer lugar aprecio demasiado como tomas tan en cuenta lo que es ser mujer en nuestra sociedad por qué desde el primer encuentro con ese idiota Stephen muestras como Katelyn no quería comportarse como una "perra" por ser firme con un tipo que no entiende que no es no. La forma en la situas el personaje que narras es perfectament precisa.

En segundo lugar aunque la escena al salir de la biblioteca me rompió el corazón, por qué de verdad, lo hizo, diré que fue una escena demasiado bien escrita. El mal presentimiento al salir de la biblioteca, sentir que alguien la seguía, el miedo y el arrepentimiento de no haber llamado a alguien para que la acompañara al volver a casa, todo aquello es realmente abrumador por la precisión que tiene cuando uno pasa por algo parecido. Así que lo diré de nuevo, tu caracterización sobre Katelyn es una de las mejores que he leído, por no decir la mejor.

En tercer lugar la conversación con Andrew me parece magníficamente escrita por varias razones, y las enumerare: uno, Andrew la invita a que entre a su habitación a pesar de tener a Neil recostado en su pecho, esto demuestra cierta vulnerabilidad que el se permite; dos, este diálogo me parece verdaderamente fascinante:

“If he bothers you again, call Aaron. If Aaron doesn’t or can’t answer, call me, call Neil. If all else fails, scream - and keep screaming until someone shows up. Go for his eyes if you can, his balls if they’re closer. Even if he hurts you, even if he promises he won’t hurt you if you shut up - make as much of a fuss as you can.” His voice was perfectly even, still in that quiet almost-murmuring tone that was also smoothly enunciated and almost excruciatingly clear. Not once did he break his gaze away from hers, not until he was done speaking, and only then it was to skim over the bruise on her cheek and then back to her eyes

Te preguntaras por qué, y te diré que debido a cuanto de su propio recorrido hacía la recuperación Andrew comparte en este párrafo. Primero por qué le dice que debe hacer en caso de una situación como aquella ocurra, esta parte es impotantisima por qué Andrew se permite hablar de algo tan cercano a el que podría provocar pánico pero aún así habla de ello con Katelyn por que empieza a formar una conexión con ella. Y segundo por qué en ese momento en que dice estas cosas tan personales el no le baja la mirada a Katelyn, no quita su atención por qué es una conversación tan fuerte y transcendental tanto para el, por qué todos sabemos por lo que ha pasado, sino también para Katelyn por que podemos ver como Andrew no se esconde ni se amilana.

“You should talk to Bee.” He was talking about Betsy, the counselor that he and Aaron saw. Katelyn had met her, of course - she’d even gone to a couple sessions with Aaron in the past few months.

“Oh I… I’m fine, really, it was just… Nothing happened, and…”

“You were assaulted, Katelyn.” Katelyn froze, from the muscles in her jaw to the tremble in her knees to the breath in her lungs. She wasn’t sure if it was because of the blunt, horrible truth or the fact that Andrew had just used her name - and she wasn’t sure he’d ever done that before. She swallowed, and it was like choking down shards of ice. Tears worked their way into her eyes from the effort and she had to look away from him.

Unperturbed, Andrew gave her only a moment before continuing. “It doesn’t matter if it was ‘just one hit’. It’s the fear that matters. It’s the fear that will follow you.” He sighed, and the sound was so tired that Katelyn had to look up at him. He wasn’t looking at her anymore. He was looking down at Neil. She noticed that his arms had tightened around the striker. As she watched, Neil shifted a little, his brows tucking inward in a small frown. He shook his head and murmured something, and Andrew adjusted slightly to gently coax the sleeping boy to lay more fully on top of him so he could wrap both his arms more securely around him. Neil settled, and Andrew nuzzled the top of his head before kissing his hair. It was so soft, so tender, so loving that Katelyn felt the tension drain from her own body completely.

En cuarto lugar, me encanto como Andrew recuerda, refuerza y trata de hacer consciente a Katelyn, quiere que ella sepa y no trate de minimizar el hecho que fue atacada, por qué aquellos que hemos pasado por algo parecido sabemos que es más fácil minimizar el trauma que lidiar con ello. Andrew sabe lo importante que es que Katelyn no huya de aquello que pasó, por qué el conoce que sucede si haces eso.

En quinto lugar por qué la parte de " Es el miedo que te seguira" es una de las líneas más cruciales de este trabajo por que, uno: Andrew es consciente de que el miedo queda, uno no puede simplemente sacudirse del miedo pero Andrew no se queda ahí, por ende, segundo: después de decir esta linea el mira al pequeño milagro recostado en su pecho y se acerca y lo abraza un poco más cerca de si y besa su cabello por qué no se queda con el miedo. ¡No se queda con el miedo! Esta línea es crucial por que es algo que evidencia el camino de Andrew hacia una vida más feliz.

En sexto lugar, este párrafo:

“Okay,” she said quietly, and Andrew’s eyes flicked back to her without the rest of him moving at all. He studied her a moment, then rested his cheek on top of Neil’s head and watched her as she continued to speak. “I’ll call the office on Monday. You’re right, I…” she took a slow breath and exhaled the confession like she was purging some dark and festering thing, and she’d only been carrying it around for around twelve hours “...I’m scared. Still. And… it doesn’t feel like it’s going to go away. Maybe it will. Maybe it won’t. But… it doesn’t mean I can’t or shouldn’t go talk to someone.

Por qué Katelyn acepta que tiene miedo y que está afectada por aquello que sucedió, y yo amo, verdaderamente amo, que ella enseguida pueda tomar la decisión de buscar ayuda para procesar este incidente y las secuelas el cual podría provocar.

En conclusión la escena en el dormitorio es una de las mejores que he leído y quiero que sepas que la aprecio muchísimo. Y en fin espero de todo corazón que leas todo esto.

Anyways this is my analysis @criswisstuff

#neil josten #andrew minyard #the foxhole court #kevin day #aftg #riko moriyama #andrew minyard trauma #katelyn aftg #aaron minyard trauma #aaron minyard #happy andrew minyard #happy neil josten #pls read this fic #fics #criswisstuff #top 10 fics

Culture and Translation - S01 E10

After the cut, lots of thoughts of bullying and betrayals. Also, me trying to get through these quick before season 2 starts dropping.

CLIP 1: And now, for a lot of thoughts on bullying

¿Con las clases empezadas? (“Mid-term?”): Nora asks Eva something like, “with school having started?” I reworked it as it sounds awkward.

Es que no me entra nada (“I have no appetite”): Eva says something like, “I can’t get anything inside.” Again, no one says this in English.

Okay, so when this clip dropped, there were some discussions on twitter. Firstly, as someone who has attended high school in the US and Spain, I don’t believe Nora would be nicknamed Joan of Arc at an American high school. I don’t think Joan of Arc is that well-known of a figure that side of the Atlantic. Joan of Arc is a fairly recognizable figure in Spain because she is a Roman Catholic saint, and Spanish culture is highly influenced by Catholicism. In my opinion, a person like Nora, living in Wisconsin, would be called a SJW or a snowflake or something along those lines. The issue is, Spanish people don’t understand what those nicknames would mean. They would, however, understand the nuances of getting called Joan of Arc.

Then there is another issue. Nora says, “I swear that, in the US, being a freak is a lot worse than here.” That raises some questions, because the kind of bullying Eva is victim to, is actually really serious. I believe she has it the worst out of all the Evas. To recap: She has been abandoned by all her friends except for Nora. People are talking about her and pointing at her. People throw notes at her, and she is the victim of 24/7 cyberbullying, which involves a picture of the Eva/Cristian kiss and defacing the pictures posted to her ig. This has been going on for around a week. Tyler Clementi, to name a notable victim of cyberbullying, suffered under similar circumstances.

So, since Nora is speaking from personal experience, how severe was the bullying she suffered in Madison, the bullying that makes her say that, “in the US, being a freak, is a lot worse” than what Eva is experiencing. Some viewers felt that Nora was minimizing the bullying Eva was going through, as Nora only mentions namecalling, being nicknamed Joan of Arc. Spanish teen viewers (the target audience) felt that Nora was exaggerating what “being a freak” is like at an American high school. That is because Spanish teens’ knowledge of American high school comes from, you guessed it, TV shows and movies. In particular, a movie that was brought up in the comments to the clip was The Perks of Being a Wallflower. When this movie was dubbed for Spaniards, the title was translated as “Las ventajas de ser un marginado” (Perks of being marginalized). Now, you will agree that being marginalized is a lot stronger than being a wallflower, and so that led to the impression from certain viewers that being bullied in the US is a glamorous affair where your best friends are Ezra Miller and Emma Watson, you eat cannabis brownies, drive through tunnels for the aesthetics and go to school dances.

In short, this clip attempted to broach the topic of bullying in the US as compared to bullying in Spain, to an audience who has no real references of what American high school culture is like, outside of American popular culture. And to do so, they gave an unrealistic example (American students using Joan of Arc as a demeaning nickname), failed to explain why Nora would feel that bullying at US schools is “a lot worse” than what Eva is experiencing (which barely holds up as an argument, as what Eva is going through has led students in the US to grievous harm), and led more educated viewers to wonder about the extent of the bullying Nora went through. And while bullying at American high schools is an important topic, should that be a topic that Skam ESPAÑA deals with? Is it relevant to the average Spanish teen’s experience? Personally, I feel like the writers may have bitten off more than the show can possibly chew, with this narrative choice, which informs Nora’s character as it is her backstory.

On a lighter note, Nora compares Eva to a dog, which should imply her stance on dogs isn’t so hard-line. The word she uses, “galletitas,” can mean a number of different things in Spanish. Generally speaking, “galletas” are cookies, but they may also be biscuits, salty crackers, or yes, dog food. I went with “kibble” to keep to the dog-related teasing.

Again, the characters suggest that Eva talks to her mom, but she doesn’t. As I mentioned, this is generally true of Spanish teens (we aren’t a hivemind after all), and more specifically, of bullying victims. One of the biggest issues about bullying in Spain is that victims take up to a year to tell their parents.

CLIP 2: Learn English with Skam España

Okay, so this is definitely more about the effects on bullying than culture or translation anymore. Is everyone in that library talking about Eva? At this point, it no longer matters for either Eva or the viewer. The bullying she has gone through so far has made it so that both Eva and the viewer now feel paranoid that everyone is talking shit about Eva while Eva is present. Maybe those guys are just checking 9gag! But since they took out their phones at the same time Eva got an IG notification, it feels like they are definitely mocking Eva. I thought Eva’s actress was great through the entire bullying arc, and I liked that Skam España expanded on the bullying sl from the og, so that we could get a fuller portrait of the effects of bullying on their victims.

¿Con qué estás? (“What are you studying?”): The literal translation would be, “What are you with?” I.e. What subject are you working on right now.

When did Amira take that Bio test? She’s supposed to be in Eva’s group (we saw her in the third clip and she’s also on the Science track), but of course, that test was all about Eva and Lucas’ friendship angst.

Phrasal verbs are the bane of every ESL student’s existence, Cris included.

No seas plasta (“don’t be a pain in the ass”): “Plasta” is a synonym of “pesado/pesada,” which I already covered in an earlier post. It literally means “flattened mass.”

Me cago en la puta (“shit on a whore”): More pooping! Now we’re pooping right on top of prostitutes! But yeah, that’s the literal translation and, you know, sometimes you want to find the closer English equivalent, and other times, you just want to make sure people understand who or what we’re pooping on this time. Cris is really frustrated with her English skills, so she uses one of the stronger pooping variations.

This was one of the clips that were most fun to translate, for the challenge of translating an English quiz to English.

CLIP 3: Mess

Es que ya hay que tener mala hostia (“You really gotta be a fucking asshole”): “Tener mala hostia” is the stronger versión of “tener mala leche” (literally, to have bad milk). A person with “mala leche” is someone who acts in bad faith, a malicious or a bad-tempered person. The idiom comes from the idea that a mother’s breastfeeding milk can have an impact on her person’s temper or personality. “Hostia,” as we’ve covered, is the sacramental bread used for the ritual of the Eucharist, but it’s used more commonly to mean a smack across the face.

Cris makes a point of singling out the person who first uploaded the pic to instagram. When I link Skam España to people, I point out that they should also follow the social media posts, and here’s the reason. If you follow the social media posts, you already know who first uploaded the picture to instagram. It was Inés. The hate ig took it from her stories, cropped it, and posted the first meme. The sequence of events is clear if you followed the show in real time. However, if you bingewatch the episodes and don’t follow social media, you get the impression that, at this point, how the Eva/Cristian picture made it to the hate ig is a mystery. And also, that whoever uploaded it first (who we know to be Inés) is the one with beef against Eva. And, well, there’s beef of the level of “I uploaded a compromising pic to my stories to be a dick” and beef on the level of “I’ve vandalized all your pictures, turned you into a meme and covertly filmed you at school.”

This confrontation is so odd when you consider that, unlike the og girl squad who didn’t know about the letter written in period blood, the Spanish girl squad suspects the second years of being behind the hate ig. In fact, they know the girls have pulled similar shit before. And, best of all, Cris actually hooked up with one of them, so you’d think Cris’ presence might help matters?

The second year girls have a different Maths teacher. This one is a guy. The girl squad’s Maths teacher is a woman.

I find it funny that Rubén was suspended for three days for fighting with ALEJANDRO, but ALEJANDRO was not punished himself.

I just noticed that there should be an “into” in the sentence, “People are huge assholes and anything can turn INTO a joke to laugh your ass off.” Oops.

CLIP 4: Failing grade in Biology and in Friendship

As noted in the subs, in Spain we’re graded on a 0-10 scale. 5 is the passing grade. Lucas got an 8, which is considered a “notable” grade, but not “outstanding” (those are grades over 9). Eva got a 3, which is well below 5. Much like Isak, Lucas is good enough in Biology that he does well in surprise exams. He seems to be resentful of what this grade might do to his GPA though, lol.

Lucas says that his mom was hysterical after his dad left, but the language he uses doesn’t make it explicit that his mom is mentally ill. The writers may or may not keep this part of Isak’s background. Thought I’d mention that since we know at this point that they have no issues giving the Skam España characters entirely different backgrounds. So far, it’s clear that Lucas’ parents fight a lot and that his home life is massively impacting Lucas’ mood and life, but we don’t know what the fights are about.

¿Para esto vienes de buenas a hablar conmigo? (“Is this why you talked to me like nothing happened?”): “de buenas” is kind of tricky to translate. You can come at someone “de buenas” (good) or “de malas” (bad). If you come at someone “de malas,” it means you’re already on a bad mood when you start a conversation, or you’re angling for a fight. On the other hand, if you come at someone “de buenas,” it means you’re in a conciliatory mood, or trying to avoid a fight.

CLIP 5: Hi privileges

Comiéndoos la boca (“Sucking face”): Inés actually says that Jorge and Eva were eating each other’s mouths. This is a common Spanish idiom, by the way!

El insta es muy jodido (“Insta is a mindfuck”): Eva says that Insta is “really fucked up,” as in, it does a number on one’s mental health. I went with “mindfuck” to get to the point of what Eva means, but keeping the swear word.

Eva asks Inés why she stayed friends with Jorge, but not her. I saw some commentary to the tune of, “why did they add that bit of dialogue? It adds nothing to the conversation, we already know this.” Personally, I think it’s good that they added it, because it’s a good starting point for a discussion, and particularly when it comes to the s2 storyline. Skam has gotten massive kudos for promoting sorority and friendship between girls. However, the s2 storyline is about Noora being forced to choose between her friend and a boyfriend. Vilde never dated William, but the storyline shares some of the same elements: Eva is torn between a guy she likes who likes her back, and her friend who is in love with that guy. So is Noora. Skam offers two outcomes to that scenario. Eva’s decision results in her expulsion from her friend group, while ultimately the girl squad friendship is stronger after Noora’s season.

Inés says she assumed that boyfriends come and go, but that she thought she’d stay friends with Eva forever. Was Eva Mohn right in choosing a boyfriend over her best friend? Was Eva Vázquez (since, thanks to the bonus clip, we know more of how Eva and Jorge got together)? Was Inés right to hold a grudge against Eva? And if she was right to do so, was she right to not hold a grudge against Jorge? Is it ever okay to choose a boyfriend over your friends?

Again, if you haven’t kept up with the social media, Inés’ apology may seem confusing. It seems like she admits to being the person behind the hate ig, but then why would she not take credit for the meme? The first profile to make a meme out of the Eva/Cristian pic was eva_la_z0rra (or eva_the_s1ut). That’s because Inés is not behind the hate ig. She just uploaded the pic to her stories. I have noticed that people who didn’t keep up with the social media posts assume Inés took responsibility for the hate ig, which is interesting. You could watch og Skam without the social media posts and the story would be exactly the same than if you’d watched it with the social media posts. Social media added characterization details. When it comes to Skam España, you come away with two very different conclusions as to who ran the hate ig, depending on your level of investment (reading and watching everything vs just watching the episodes).

Retirar el saludo (“to snub someone”): This idiom doesn’t come up in the clip itself, but it gives cultural context to Eva and Inés’ conversation. In the course of a day, we say hi to everyone we know that we come across. We don’t necessarily stop and have a conversation, but we acknowledge them with a “hi” or a “how are you doing.” In Spain, we have a specific idiom for when someone’s fucked up and has lost their “hi” privileges. This is “retirar el saludo” (literally, “to remove the greeting”). Through the conversation, Eva seeks to get her “hi” privileges back, and eventually Inés agrees she will say “hi” to Eva when they see each other at school/around the neighborhood/at parties or botellones. It doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll stop to talk and catch up, but Eva now gets to be told “hi.”

Social media:

Cris turned 16 this week! I love that the writers specifically picked her birthdate so that it would fall on a day where the girl squad was still broken up. Needless to say, people were very salty in the comments, heh.

I’ve liked the way Skam España has referenced the og with similar social media pics, Kose Club, and song choices. Referencing songs from the og on insta is actually clever as it helps them circumvent music license issues, lol. That said, I think naming the Spanish girl squad after the og girl squad name Las Losers would be far too much. I hope they leave it at that, just a reference on a text update.

Diabolik lovers Lost Eden: Reiji Sakamaki [Dark prologue] ~translation|traducción~

This translation was made by @vampiretsuki

Place: Yui’s room.

Yui: (……Reiji-san has been working hard since he obtained the powers.)

Yui: (But, it’s something obvious. Out of all of his brothers, he was the one who wanted the power the most……)

*Flashback*

Reiji: Father’s power…….will be inherited to me……? Karlheinz: Didn’t you want it?

Reiji: No, of course I want it.

KarlHeinz: Then you should just take it.

Reiji: ... ... ... ...

Yui: (Reiji-san’s expression while he’s kneeling…… it’s as if he’s smiling and crying at the same time)

Reiji: Leave the rest in my hands

KarlHeinz: *laughs* This is my everything

*Flash of light*

Reiji: Ugh… …

Yui: (Wa… …What’s happening… …?)

Reiji: …Ugh, father… …!

KarlHeinz: The meaning of obtaining the force… …

KarlHeinz: You will learn it by yourself. This… … is your trial… …

Yui: (Trial… …?)

Reiji: Ugh… … Ugh… … What does that mean… …!

Yui: Reiji-san!

Reiji: Ugh… I can’t even stay on my feet… …

Yui: (He seems to be in pain. I have to support him… …!)

*Yui goes towards Reiji*

Reiji: Ah… …Yui… …

Yui: Are you okay?

Reiji: Yes

KarlHeinz: … … … …

Reiji: ! ... ...He disappeared… …?

Yui: …. … KarlHeinz-san’s power really… …

Reiji: … …is in my hands, that’s what I believe

Reiji: … …I still can’t believe it, but since it was inherited to me, I have to work much harder than ever

Reiji: Father… … I shall be a worthy successor.

*End of Flashback*

Yui: (The granting of the force… It was impressive that I was able to witness such a solemn scene)

Yui: (But the words that he said at that moment… …Must have a very deep meaning)

Yui: (To learn by himself what it means to obtain the force, eh)

Yui: (KarlHeinz-san was the owner of such an impressive power. It probably wasn’t as simple as it seemed)

Yui: (But, since that moment Reiji-san has been moving very energetically, and he hasn't stopped striving so far)

Yui: (It seems that he’s traveling through the Makai trying to fix the problems of the Demonic Clans, and of course he’s still taking care of his family)

Yui: (And of me too… … even though he’s so busy, he cares properly for me)

Yui: (Reiji-san is very reliable and kind… … Surely everything will be fine)

Yui: (Surely this time he also will resolve the intruder situation. Although it was a bit scary… …)

Yui: … … It’s time to go where Reiji-san is.

*scenario changes*

Place: Living Room.

*Footsteps*

Yui: (He wasn’t in his bedroom. Where could he be… …?)

*Wings flapping*

Yui: (Those are… … Reiji-san's Familiars. They look somewhat agitated…. …. What could have happened?)

*Reiji*

Yui: (Ah… …!)

Yui: Reiji-san!

Reiji: Ah, it's you. Be quiet for a moment.

Yui: I-I'm sorry… …

*Everyone else come to scene*

Yui: (Ah, everyone was here)

Reiji: … …Well, give us the report.

*The familiars speak*

Reiji: ---I see… …so that’s how it is.

Ayato: Oi! I can’t hear anything. Tell us so we can understand too!

Reiji: Apparently our uncle…… Richter has died

Yui: Eh?

Reiji: Apparently someone stabbed him in the Tawa Tower, subsequently dying.

Ayato: Haha, what an idiotic way to die

Kanato: That’s right

Raito: Really, how dumb~

Ayato: And? Who did it?

Reiji: Who knows. But probably the demon hunters were the ones who played a part in this

Subaru: Demon Hunters?

Reiji: Recently, the demons that live here have been attacked frequently. There has been many reports about that.

Ayato: Haa? Who the hell is doing that?

Reiji: I’ve researched about the case… …. But they don’t expose themselves so easily

Reiji: However, we don’t know when we can become their targets. So be very attentive

Ayato: If those guys appear, I will defeat them immediately!

Subaru: Same

Kanato: Has this ridiculous conversation finished? … ….I’ll return to my room then

Raito: Me too~

Shu: … … … …

*They leave*

Yui: … … Reiji-san, what will you do?

Reiji: I will go to the scene urgently. The culprit could have left some clue.

Yui: Um, can I go with you too?

Reiji: Why?

Yui: I can’t believe that…. ….Richter-san was murdered… …

Yui: I started to feel scared, that’s why I wanted to go with you.

Yui: (Besides, if I leave him alone then he’ll overwork himself again, he worries me… …)

Reiji: … …Alright, it's fine. Then follow me.

Place: Tawa Tower.

Reiji: The fact that they are going on with their normal lives... … means that the body has been taken away.

Yui: (Richter-san died in such a visited place like this one… …)

Yui: Are there possibilities that the culprit is still nearby?

Reiji: … …Now we will carefully go back to the thoughts of our uncle and the killer.

Yui: Well, is there anything I can help you with?

Reiji: It’s not necessary, thanks.

Yui: (Right… …)

Reiji: … …Ahh, there is something you can do.

Yui: Eh?

Reiji: Don’t cause any unnecessary distractions. It would be troublesome to hear the thoughts.

Yui: (I see… …)

Reiji: Clean your mind and don’t think nonsense. If you can’t do it, then return.

Yui: ! I-I’ll do my best

Yui: (Okay… …. Clean my mind, clean my mind)

Reiji: Let’s begin… … Where are the clues… …

Yui: (He said he is going to read the thoughts. What type of sensation is it?)

Reiji: … …There are too many interruptions… …and I can’t do it well. Even the thoughts of people and animals end up entering.. …it’s a problem.

Reiji: *Concentrates more* … …

Yui: (It must be very difficult… … In some way it looks painful)

Yui: (I think it’s a good thing to search for clues for everybody’s sake, and it’s very reliable but… … it worries me)

Yui: Umm, I don’t think it’s good to do it in one go... ...

Reiji: Ug… … … …!

Yui: Reiji-san… …! Don’t read the thoughts too much. It’s bad for your body… …---

Reiji: … …Haa. A moment ago I told you not to think about anything. Did you already forget that?

Reiji: And… … I would like it if you could be more careful with your comments.

*Reiji gets closer*

Yui: Kya?

Reiji: You… …Who do you think I am?

Yui: Eh… …

Reiji: I am the successor of my father’s force. I have the power to govern this world!

Reiji: and that’s why you have no right to tell me anything!

Yui: … …I'm sorry

*Reiji gets away*

Reiji: If you understood, then return to the mansion. Alright?

Yui: Yes

Yui: (He worries me, but if I stay here I’ll only be a holdback. It’s time to return)

*Yui leaves*

Reiji: … …Why I can’t control it… …!

Reiji: (It's because I can’t control it that I can’t use it as I please… … How troublesome)

Reiji: (Is the current me a distant existence from being the vampire king?)

Reiji: I obtained the power with my own hands… … yet why does this happen… …!

Reiji: Father... ...!

Reiji: !! Don’t tell me that… …

Reiji: (The Watch of the End… … Has broken into many pieces)

Reiji: (It was working correctly until yesterday… …Why does it stop right now?)

Reiji: Don’t tell me that… …the end is near?

Reiji: I can’t continue to take so much time. I have to do it. And even so, why do I lack so much power?

Reiji: Ugh… …

Reiji: ? A earthquake? What in the world is going on… …. I don´t understand anything at all.

Reiji: … …. …

Yui: (... ...Reiji-san se ha estado esforzando mucho desde que obtuvo los poderes.) Yui: (Pero, es algo obvio. De todos sus hermanos, él era el que más deseaba esa fuerza... ...)

*Flashback*

Reiji: El poder de padre... ... será legado a mí... ...? KarlHeinz: No lo querías? Reiji: No, claro que lo quiero. KarlHeinz: Entonces sólo deberías tomarlo Reiji: ... ... ... ... Yui: (La expresión de Reiji-san mientras esta arrodillado... ... es como si estuviera sonriendo y llorando a la vez) Reiji: Déje todo el resto en mi manos KarlHeinz: *Risa* Este es mi todo

[Creo que sería malo si hace eso, tipo estaría leyenedo también la mente de Yui? normalmente en las peliculas escuchan las voz de todos y se desmayan lol] Reiji: ... ...Hay muchas interrumpciones... .... y no puedo hacerlo bien. Hasta los pensamientos de las personas y los animales terminan entrando... ... es un problema Reeiji: *Más concentrado* ... ... Yui: (Debe ser muy dificil. ... ...De alguna manera parece doloroso) Yui: (Creo que es honorable buscar pistas por el bien de todos, y es muy confiable pero... ... me preocupa) [ESTA LEYENDO TU MENTE!! Callate boludaaa jajajaja] Yui: Esto, creo que no es bueno entrar de una sola vez... ... Reiji: Ug... ... ... ...!

[Yui, te vas a comer el reto mija.]

Yui: Reiji-san... ...! No leas demasiado los pensamientos. Es malo para tu cuerpo... ...--- Reiji: ... ...Haa. Hace un rato te dije que no pensaras en nada, verdad. Ya te olvidaste de eso? REiji: Y.... ... me gustaría que tengas más cuidados con tus comentarios.

*Reiji se acerca muy salvajemente OE*

Yui: Kya? Reiji: Tú... ... quien te piesas que soy? [No te hagas el Karl, Reiji:v Acá la Yui se la aguanta más que vos, así que sssshhhhh] Yui: Eh... ... Reiji: Yo soy el sucesor de la fuerza de mi padre. Tengo el poder para gobernar este mundo! Reiji: Y eso es el porque no tienes derecho a decirme nada! Yui: ... ...Lo siento

*Reiji se aleja*

Reijis: Si lo entendiste entonces regresa a la mansión. Esta bien? Yui: Si... ... Yui: (Me preocupa, pero si sigo aquí sólo será un estorbo. Es hora de volver) [Encima de lo que le dijo ella se sigue preocupando y ni se enoja. YO NECESITO UNA YUI, damela!]

*Yui se va*

Reiji: ... ...Por qué no puedo controlarlo... ...! Reiji: (Por culpa de no poder controlarlo, no puedo usarlo a mi antojo. ... ...Que molesto) Reiji: (El yo de ahora será una existencia alejada de ser el rey vampiro?) Reiji: Obtuve con mis propias manos este poder... ... y sin embargo por qué pasa esto... ...! Reiji: Padre... ...!

*Sonido de vidrio roto*

Reiji: !! No me digas que... ... Reiji: (El reloj Del Fin... ... se ha roto en muchas piezas) Reiji: (Hasta ayer estaba funcionando correctamente... ... por qué se deiene justo ahora?) Reiji: No me digas que... ... el fin esta cerca? Reiji: (No puedo seguir tardandome tanto tiempo. Tengo que hacerlo. Y sin embargo, por qué carezco tanto de poder?) Reiji: Ugh... ... Reiji: ? Un temblor? Qué en la tierra es lo que esta pasando. ... ...No entiendo absolutamente nada

[Como la tenemos con los temblores... Saludos México!]

Reiji: ... ... ... ...

*cambio de escena*

???: Ha... ... escuché que él había obtenido el poder y vine a ver pero... ... parece que no es la gran cosa ???: Bueno, estaré esperando lo divertido

June 30 @4:36 am

June 27.

Mid - Pandemic and all

Went to my boyfriends families house. It was his nieces graduation party. Small just their family. They had the couple who makes cobobs ( not really sure what kind of food it is ) come make the food for them.

After they finished, the wife decided to come and talk to my boyfriends mom. They talk and talk. The wife is on the left of me. My bfs mom across of the wife. And my boyfriend to the right of me. Banda plays in the background....she then asks me “wouldnt you love to have banda play at your wedding?” And my boyfriends mom says “the time is near, when she will decided”

“No quisieras tener banda en su boda?”

“El tiemp ya casi llega cuando pude pensar en eso”

Aka saying that it’s something in the books, that is soon to happen. And I don’t know why, but I look I look away with tears in my eyes. All I could think is that’s something I don’t know anything about. I’ve never been given the idea by my boyfriend that it will ever happen. Or if it’s even a possibility. And bam, I was caught. As I turned right, he looked at me and asks if I’m okay. He sees the tears in my eyes...and all I could say is “I’m tired, I’m really tired” and he takes me to his sisters room to take a nap. He asks me...but I can’t bring myself to tell him. I don’t want to let him know I’ve been upset at the idea that I don’t even know if my future is with him. How am I supposed to know if we have a future if he doesn’t give me an idea? Or even a small glimpse into the future...

Am I wrong for this? Am I asking for too much? He knows I’m lying so he leaves... I nap and hope I never get to talk about it. It’s not something I want to talk about with him. He won’t understand. He just won’t. Never will. Is this enough to keep us together?

Circling back to today...tip in, and finishes. I don’t say anything. Cleans, has paper ball in pocket. It’s time to drop me off home. We start walking to the car and I realize his neighbor ( the new one parking there ) has a sticker I’ve never seen before. The 3 finger banger one. He’s always parked reverse so I’ve never seen it. Once I see it, I think to myself “I definitely did not realize he was that type of person” so as I’m getting in the car, I laugh a little. But it’s at the same time he’s puttting his paper ball into a Mcdonald’s cup ( which I didn’t realize he was doing that ) He asks why I’m laughing and I tell him. He doesn’t believe me. I don’t understand, and I tell him I don’t understand why he assumes I’m lying. Once we get near my house, we pass trash cans. So he grabs the cup and then I start laughing again because I realize the misunderstanding. That he must have thought I was laughing the first time because he was done within seconds. But then I realize again, he thinks I’m laughing because of what he originally thought before. Finishing fast. But it wasn’t even that! “Why do you always bring things up late”

Because you don’t give me any time to understand or comprehend!!!

I wasn’t trying to make him feel bad. It was all a misunderstanding but I’m the only one in the wrong. I’m the problem. I caused this. I created this environment.

So obviously I understand “late” cus I had to figure it out on my own. But nooooo. I couldn’t get a straight answer the first time. All he told me when I told him I was laughing was “that’s the worst lie you’ve ever told. He’s BEEN had that sticker.” And I say “well that’s the first time I’ve ever seen it”

How are we supposed to work thru things when you always cut me off. You don’t let me explain and assume I’m lying. This breaks my heart.

I’m so confused. I don’t know what to do anymore. I want to be happy. But will I be happy with you?

I have this feeling. It comes and goes. But I know he’s battling something within him all the time. He just won’t open up to what it is. The death of his brother?

He’s the only one who knows.

P.s. accidentally added these pics and I don’t know how to take it off the phone

11 gross animals you can eat in a survival situation

New Post has been published on https://nexcraft.co/11-gross-animals-you-can-eat-in-a-survival-situation/

11 gross animals you can eat in a survival situation

This article was originally published on Outdoor Life.

If you have an adventurous palate, you may take offense at the list we have compiled here. Snails sautéed in garlic butter and freshly prepared organ meats are standard fare for foodies these days. For the rest of us, we’d need some serious motivation to munch on some of the creatures listed herein.

Personally, I can’t stand the crunchy bugs. Even though they’re standard fare in many parts of the world, just thinking about biting into a crispy cricket activates my gag reflex. But all that can change when you find yourself starving in a survival situation. No matter if you’re lost in the wild or fighting through an urban collapse, hunger is the best spice. And if push ever comes to shove, I bet you’ll be able to choke down a few bites of every animal on this list.

There are scores of different species of earthworm and all are considered safe for human consumption, but they should be purged of their “dirt” before you eat them. An easy way to clean their systems is to place them in a container of damp grass. After a few hours, the critters will be void of the dirt and sand they normally hold. Like almost all animal foods, worms should be cooked before you eat them. I recommend frying. The good news is that fried worms taste a little like jerky. The bad news, average-size worms are only about 1 calorie per gram (not counting any fat used for frying). Worms can be dug with a shovel, or located by quickly flipping over rocks and rotten logs. You can also “thump” for worms, which entails pounding a mallet, club, or staff against the ground to vibrate the soil. Many species of worms will respond to this by crawling up to the surface. You can even cut notches into the side of a stick, brace it against the ground and scrape the notches with another stick to vibrate worms up to the surface.

Let me say from the beginning, that this is not a choice I would relish: eating slugs or starving. I’ve eaten them before, and I hope I never have to repeat that experience. But they will pass for food in a pinch. Terrestrial slugs and snails (those found on land, not the sea) are generally safe for human consumption—after thorough cooking, that is. And their nutritional value certainly justifies the effort of collecting and cooking them. These critters have about 90 calories per 100 grams of “meat”, which is high in protein (12 to 16 percent) and rich in minerals. It’s a little hard to consider them as food though, when you consider their favorite meal is scat.

Now, if you had (or wanted) to eat slugs and snails, the safest choice is the snail. Slugs are more prone to eating toxic mushrooms. Snails tend to eat more plant material (when they’re not eating dung, of course). If you must eat slugs—and there are toxic mushrooms in season where you harvested them—put the slugs in a container for a week with some damp cornmeal or moist vegetation to allow them to purge. Find something else to eat in the meantime while you psych yourself up for a challenge, and try cooking these mollusks as a meal.

Each summer, the roar of the cicadas signals a feast in the animal kingdom. Why not join the other animals that are gobbling up this winged windfall of calories? The newly hatched cicadas (called tenerals) are considered the best for eating because their shells are not that hard yet. Your prep work for cicadas is easy: just harvest the slow-witted and slow-moving creatures in the early hours of the morning. They should be blanched (boiled for 4-5 minutes) soon after collecting and before you eat them. Not only will this solidify their insides a bit, it will also kill any bacteria and parasites they’re carrying. Remove the wings and legs. (At this point you can either freeze them for later use, or cook with them immediately.) When you’re ready to take the plunge, try frying them. To a certain degree, we naturally expect fried food to crunch, and it might help you stomach the texture of this crunchy bug.

Ants are tricky to collect in any great quantity, but that doesn’t mean you should ignore them. A 3.5-ounce serving of red ants supplies about 14 grams of protein, along with iron and calcium. Some have a lemony flavor, thanks to a sour acid that their bodies contain. When toasted, boiled, or eaten raw, ants can help you stretch out the hours until rescue arrives—or something bigger to eat comes along.

Grubs aren’t a specific species, but an insect that’s between life stages. No longer an egg, but not an adult, grubs can be a little tricky to identify. So it’s a good thing that 99 percent of them are perfectly fit for human consumption. Follow the example of bears and skunks: rip the bark off dead trees or tear into rotten logs to find them. Grubs, mealworms, and their kin can make good, ah, grub. Just one ounce of boiled grubs contains 124 calories, 5 grams of fat, and 16 grams of powerful protein. They also provide a little potassium and a few other minerals. The right ones can actually have a shrimp flavor, which is quite nice, since their cooked form resembles shrimp meat, too.

Ripping open rotten wood may seem like a lot of work, but the payoff might be worth the trouble. Termites are the highest-calorie bug on this list. These pale colored, ant-looking insects provide about 6 calories per gram. You’ll have to work to get them, though. These little guys go scurrying for cover anytime you damage the wood they reside in. Roast them in a dry pan, boil them as a stew, or bake them into dough for a protein-rich boost.

Crickets, katydids, and grasshoppers are a diverse group of insects that are generally safe to eat. Just make sure to avoid the colorful members of these families: red, orange, yellow, and blue colors are usually warnings. The heads and small legs should be removed, and the bugs should always be cooked thoroughly. Bugs with crunchy shells (exoskeletons) are often the most laden with parasites. Hunt for them in the early morning, when they are less active due to the colder temperatures. This group yields approximately 4 to 5 calories per gram. Their flavor ranges from flavorless to fatty.

The humble opossum has sometimes been called the “rat of the woods,” but this misunderstood creature can be surprisingly easy to catch and, occasionally, downright tasty. Okay, not always tasty, just once-in-a-while tasty. If you are lucky and kill the right animal, it can have a flavor a bit like pulled pork. The wrong ‘possom however, well – let’s just hope you don’t get one. Flavor varies from animal to animal. Carefully clean the animal and roast it over a smoky hardwood fire for a unique meal. Here’s my recipe.

Cook time: 45 minutes (Does not including butchering) Makes: 4 servings

Ingredients:

One cleaned ‘possum, cut into 2 inch cubes

Freshly cut hardwood skewers

Seasoning salt, to taste

Directions:

Sprinkle the ‘possum cubes with seasoning salt, and impale them on the skewers. Leave one inch of space between the cubes for even cooking.

Roast the skewered meat over the coals of the fire, turning often to avoid burning.

After the meat is cooked through, remove from the skewers and serve (or leave them on the skewers for serving). Sprinkle with more seasoning salt, if desired.

Gulls are the pigeons of the beach, eking out a living by scavenging dead fish and scraps that have gone rotten in the sun. But despite their questionable diet and fishy-tasting flesh, you can eat them, even live off them if need be. Case in point: three Mexican fishermen survived in an open boat on the Pacific for nine months in 2005, after the boat ran out of fuel and shore winds pushed them out into the ocean current. They floated nearly 5,000 miles in the deep ocean, surviving on raw fish, turtles, and, yes, seagulls. Salvador Ordóñez, one of the three survivors, was perhaps the best-prepared man onboard, as he brought his Bible and had taken a course on surviving at sea a year prior to the incident. His fellow survivors nicknamed him “the cat” for his uncanny stealth at snatching seagulls, which would land on the boat in the evening. After a nine-month voyage, they were finally rescued when their path crossed a deep-sea fishing vessel.

Snakes look disgusting and frightening to some people and mouthwatering to others. If you’re not sure where you fall on that spectrum, just imagine that snake meat is a very small (yet very long) rack of ribs. Hold the (preferably dead) snake down with a forked stick and cut off its head.

Make the cut a few inches back (15 cm) behind the head on venomous species. This keeps you from cutting into venom glands. Note: Don’t bother with coral snake species. They are too dangerous to justify their small amount of meat, and their venom glands run through a quarter of the length of their body. If it is another venomous species, bury the snake’s head to prevent accidents—severed heads can still inject venom if stepped on.

Slit the belly open and remove the contents. Use this for trap or fish bait, since it’s not too appetizing to humans. Pull the skin off and wash the meat. Cook the snake meat whole or cut into sections. If you’re roasting the snake meat, don’t overcook it. It will dry out quickly and become very tough to chew. While it tastes better roasted, the meat will be more tender if slow cooked as a soup or stew.

Mice, rats, and other rodents may not be at the top of your list for survival trapping, but in some places they are far too abundant to ignore. Aside from venomous snakes, rodents can be the most hazardous food source on this list. The viruses, bacteria, and parasites rodents can carry require us to handle them with extreme caution. But there’s an upside, too: many rodents taste like chicken. Rat kabobs and mouse soup may not seem like fancy fare, but when handled carefully and cooked until well-done, this meat can sustain a survivor just like any other. The meat of a 300 gram rat contains 648 calories, 63 grams of protein, 33 grams of fat and 14 mgs of iron. Yum!

Beggars can’t be choosers, and when times get tough, you may have to eat some foods that you would prefer not to sample. For many of us, animal organs are on that list. It turns out that, with just a few exceptions, edible animals contain edible organs. Hearts can be cut up and prepared in the same ways as muscle meat (since hearts are indeed a muscle). Liver can be fried, and while lungs are an odd flavor and texture, they are edible. Stomachs can be emptied, rinsed, scraped, and cut up into little pieces as tripe. Tripe is often used in spicy acidic soups, where their natural vomit flavor is camouflaged. Intestines can be thoroughly flushed out, and prepared into chitterlings or processed a little further into sausage casings. Kidneys are best slow-cooked until tender. And all the bones can be used as soup bones, which provide minerals that are vital to your health. Just skip any organs that look diseased, and avoid the livers of arctic mammals, which can contain toxic levels of vitamin A.

Un Ojo Para Una Vida (Part 1)

I’ll post this in parts, but it’s a little story attached to lore from my askblog, @ask-the-iron-queen, more specifically, a bit of backstory on the new character introduced, Lady Melissa Foster.

The characters here are human, unlike how they are pokemon in the blog.

Read on if you’re interested.

I knew from the day we separated that he would come crawling back to me.

What I didn't know was that being of flesh, blood and bone once more would come with an unspoken price.

Shadows of a past that I never knew, a past that wasn't even mine. These heavy shadows being lugged behind me and constantly eating at my very existence - following me around, making me feel anxious and uneasy.

This is especially true given the flesh and bone that make me up now doesn’t even belong to me. Or, it didn’t anyway. I’m still adjusting.

One shadow that I do welcome with open arms, even until this day, is the fateful evening that I was reunited with my beloved. While this was my own shadow of the past, what I feared was a shadow that wasn’t my own. If it wasn’t for the shadow of my flesh, blood and bone, then I wouldn’t have met my love one again. While thankful, this night had somewhat traumatized me for years to come. The velvet puddle under the limp, suited body is engraved into the insides of my eyelids, even now after about 10 years. I can’t help but feel like it was my fault, but I have no recollection of the person that was dead in front of me, even though he recognized me.

It was rather cool that evening and for the first time in years, the Renaissance King Fernando, the first monarch of the Royal Isles, had finally hosted yet another Royal Ball. The timing was a bit weird, because unlike the first time he hosted such an event at Castillo Hayañil, he seemed to randomly call for it in the midst of the infamous Cryptic War. Not that there were any imminent threats at the time since most soldiers were sent overseas to fight battles and the city was generally untouched, but stuff like this Royal Ball were usually held during peacetime, when feelings of anxiety and fear were but a distant memory.

I remember bringing this very point up to Lady Katherine Foxwell, Fernando’s advisor and head of El Departamento de la Guerra (Department of War) for the Royal Isles. She was a generally bubbly personality and as expected, she just smiled and said:

“Why not? Another Royal Ball would help ease the tension a bit for the Royal Islanders! Sure, it would be better to use it as a celebration for the end of the war, but God knows when it’ll end! Might as well have some fun now and get our minds off it.”

Immediately, I knew that Fernando’s decision to host this event in the castle was heavily influenced by Katherine. Most of his decisions were, after all. The man was generally stubborn and strong-willed but when it came to Katherine, he became putty in her hands. It was clear that the pair shared some sort of romantic bond, but none of that was any of my business at all. Either way, a few weeks later the Royal Ball commenced nonetheless. Fernando’s troops, the Soldados Sombras (Shadow Soldiers) were being shipped over to the nations of the Contrasoviet Confederation and Himilaya to fight off Dictatorial Forces under King Thapa and Tsar Danylo, who were in an alliance with Fernando’s nemesis, Tobias Messieri. Some stuck around here in Hayañil to train and to keep guard of the castillo. Thank God for them though, bless their brave souls. If it wasn’t for them, I don’t think I’d be here writing this following the disaster that occurred during the ball.

Anyway, the Royal Ball, yes. It was a lovely little event. Katherine of course casually invited me weeks in advance and I immediately bought a lovely lavender flamenco dress and did my hair the way those Flamenco girls do. I mean, I surely wasn’t the only one who wore this outfit, but I felt like it would be fitting. The last Royal Ball had a ton of tango pieces performed by the talented Royal Musicians after all, and I’d very much rather do that than waltz.

(More under the cut!)

My date was an older man, roughly in his 40’s I believe. A very notable man too. A college professor by the name of Guillermo Escudero. For a man of his age, he was outstandingly handsome and looked like he was in at least his 30’s, with ginger hair that looked like fire and tranquil blue eyes that seemed to take your breath away. He had a number of freckles right under his eyes, and he almost looked like a kid. But god, he was such a heartthrob. Though maybe that’s just me talking. I met him while working on one of Fernando’s war machines one day, I decided to work outside rather than in the hangar to get some fresh air and he kept saying “Hi” to me and starting chit chat every time he walked back from his daily lectures. He was a history professor or something, he always loved the topic of Piracy’s Golden Age. You know, those stereotypical pirates that say “Arrrrrgh” and “X marks the spot” and shit like that.

He really loved what he did, and I really admired that in a man. The small talk he and I engaged in soon evolved to full-on dating and though we never really did anything physical, we were the best of friends. Hell, this Royal Ball was the first time we’d even touch one another in some way and we were both completely okay with that. But there was something about him that reminded me of Finn, oh my sweet Finn. He was a darling too, but I don’t think there was a way I could see him again after we got separated those many years ago. I guess dating similar-looking guys was a bit of a coping mechanism or something.

The Dance was held in the ballroom of the newly erected Castillo Hayañil, King Fernando’s castle in the center of the city. The chandelier dangling from the stone ceiling glowed dimly, with the faux diamonds that hung from it’s arms and around the light bulbs refracting the faint orange light throughout the ballroom. The polished stone floors were gently draped over by a velvet red carpet with gilded lining and against the walls were marble tables with punch and small refreshments, from empanadas to chicharrones con vinagre. The stone pillars and wooden interior balconies towered above the dancers below at the edges of the room, small candlelit lanterns burning gently on each side, helping the chandelier above bring more light to the show beneath them all. A large wooden door was left ajar at the front of the room - clearly the entrance to the ballroom, and two winding staircases made of polished wood, led up to the top balconies on the front and back of the castle as well as other rooms. On the walls behind the pillars were paintings of all kinds, made by all kinds of uncredited artists, works that I’ve never even seen before placed in golden frames that had leaves carved into them as well as other intricate patterns. Each painting had the Royal Islander Coat of Arms carved into the top of the frame - El Diamante de Casa Boromeo (the Diamond of Casa Borromeo).

Those participating in the Royal Ball were mostly the prominent of Hayañil that were invited by either Katherine or Fernando but others that attended were usual citizens that were able to afford tickets to get in. Not that I minded that, it’s nice to get to mingle with people you’ve never met before and get to know them. One couple I met was particularly interesting. They both moved from the wasteland that was the United States to Hayañil at the start of the war since the husband, Francisco, wanted to serve as part of Fernando’s Soldados Sombras. Francisco was a doctor and his wife, Marie, was a nurse. He was registered to practice here in Hayañil and so was his wife, but the war had given him other things to do. He fought in the bloody “Batalla de Roma” a few years prior while his wife stayed in Hayañil to practice nursing. When he returned he was put on reserve and since then, has been getting to know the capital city and the people that lived in it a little more. Hence, why he and his wife were here. He wanted to get to meet the other professionals of the city, and he was definitely in the right place for that. He claimed that he lived in the city of Rey de Los Islas before it was even called that, but he didn’t really go into detail.

We all came flooding in with big ol’ smiles on our faces when the clocktower outside struck 7pm that night, couples dressed in elaborate dresses of different colors and suits or tuxes of different cuts and styles. The decor of the ballroom was rather simple, with banners of the Royal Isles’ flag pinned to the stone walls of the room between each glimmering candle lantern. But the elaborate chandelier, the paintings on the wall and the sculptures on the tables of food were what garnered the most attention. The musicians were setting up their music stands and tuning their instruments in an area toward the back of the room, right between the two large staircases. They all stood in front of a large glass door that overlooked a small grassy field, the jungle beyond it seen in the distance. Obviously the uncharted area of Hayañil.

After about 15 minutes of preparing the music to be performed for the evening, I saw the castle maid, La Eterna herself, Cecilia Lacroix readying her violin with a grin and a nod toward the Royal Conductor. He nodded back in understanding and curled his fingers on the ivory of his piano to prepare his piece. As soon as the music played, the dancers began to hold each other and start performing all kinds of complicated, circus-worthy twirls and twists while holding one another. This was when Guillermo jokingly knelt on one knee in front of me, kissed the back of my hand and with a smile asked “Puedo tener esta danza?” (May I have this dance?) I quickly fixed my hair and replied with an excited “Sí, mi amor.” before we began to embrace and move along to the music, our movements melodiously coordinating with the violins.

I know this is probably getting rather dull by now, but no worries. I won’t go into detail about how the night went on before shit went down. Besides, it was basically just Guillermo and I getting to know each other and dancing the night away with the others while some were off to the side socializing and munching on goodies and admiring the paintings between the pillars and whatnot. At one point, a very strange song began to play in the midst of people just mingling and talking that caught us all of guard and next thing we know a couple comes down from the upper balcony and starts waltzing in the center of the ballroom like it was nobody’s business. Of course, this couple was Lady Katherine and King Fernando but they were dancing together, for the very first time. It pretty much confirmed the talk of the town that Fernando and Katherine had a thing for one another, but man did they did they turn heads, that night. Katherine had this elaborate silk gown was absolutely dazzling. Very European in style with all kinds of shades of yellow and even some white and red thrown in the mix. It was like she was straight out of a ballroom in Vienna or something. Fernando, on the other hand didn’t even seem to dress formally, only wearing his usual buttoned silk shirt with the battlement-shaped patterns on the cuffs and the bottoms of the shirt with black dress pants and dress shoes, still donning the onyx crown upon his head. It was a cute little waltz, they both looked absolutely adorable! According to Cecilia, the waltz they played was a piece written by Katherine herself, which was surprising given I had no idea that she had musical skills in her. Honestly, I think that was the first time in years I’ve seen Fernando’s face light up like that. Who knew that all it really took was a short little brunette wearing an elaborate, yellow silk gown to make the miserable son of a bitch smile? She was clearly having a ball, and the two seemed to have a lot of chemistry together. Its a shame they never really went anywhere with that relationship.

Y empezamos Daybreak 1.2

I had badly neglected my locker. I had an office, so my locker in the changing room was more for the things I didn’t use much at all.

Bag. The backpack was light, but it only had the nonperishables in it. I’d done a few patrols for Gilpatrick over the winter, visiting some of the settlements that were a little further afield, while many of the students were taking Christmas off. I’d also used it for my fitness test.

Non-perishables? como en comida?, o como en cosas indispensables?

Nota: el PRTeens visita los pueblichos alrededor de la CIUDAD (asi, en caps, porque es metropolis). ¿Reclutando? ¿Siendo policías? Probablemente GG se este convirtiendo cada vez mas en una figura publica. Me gusta.

¿Como no la han reconocido tho?

Outfit change. I couldn’t go out in a skirt and body armor. I had someself respect. The pants in my locker were part of an emergency change of clothes, heavier fabric intended for winter and trips to Bet when the weather was bad.

O puedes usar una falda táctica de combate.

Deberían haber faldas tácticas de combate.,.

Ahora, enserio, otra nota: hacen viajes a Bet, ¿reclutar igual? ¿Vigilar la paz? ¿Escamotear y robar cosas?. Si fuera a una tierra paralela donde esta la escoba, saben lo que usaría?

Usaría una falda táctica de combate

I hadn’t put the pants through the wash since having to shovel snow over the winter, but I hadn’t worn them much either. There was still salt crusting the heels, white against black fabric. I walked over to the sink and rinsed the worst of the salt off, then rolled up the cuffs a bit so I wouldn’t have wet pants slapping against my ankle.

Ew.

Como llego la sal allí?

¿Estan al lado del mar?

“Victoria,” Gilpatrick said, behind me, a deep male voice in the girl’s change room. I jumped a little. “Are you free to talk?”

Gilstalker! :D

no, weno, es como el jefe, tiene como permiso pa llegar a todas partes no?

I turned my head. There wasn’t a door to the girl’s changing room, but there was a solid wall blocking the view. I could see the edge of Gilpatrick’s arm – he stood with his back to the wall and the changing room.

Ah, no tan Gilstalker. vale, vale, no perdiste puntos de respeto, tiene sentido igual, que sea como general.

Camisola was in the room too, unpacking and repacking her kits for her bag. She met my eyes.

Tuve que leerlo dos veces para entenderlo.

Cami no es por camila.

Es Camisola. Como una camisa grande.

pfffffttttt

Ya no puedes ser edgy querida, ya no.

“I’ll step out,” she said.

“Thank you, Cami,” Gilpatrick said. I pulled my shoes back on and laced them as Cami left the room.

Show who’s the boss.

Belt. Holster. I threaded the belt through my belt loops, careful to position the holster.

Cami was apparently out of earshot, because Gil spoke again. “Thank you, Victoria.”

“Give me Jasper,” I said. “For my squad.”

Shipping bells, shipping bels, shipping bels rock ~~

“Jasper?” he asked. “Why?”

Well, that said a lot, didn’t it?

Ouch.

Weno, reforzando mi idea de que Jasper es asi como un Loser, o como full Geeky.

Pobre Jasper. Igual me cae bien.

“Because I’m paranoid,” I said. Paranoid on more than one front, but I wouldn’t tell Gilpatrick that. I had suspicions and his willingness to give me Jasper would tell me things. “Is anyone else standing outside the door?”

Ok... hay algo acá que no esta calzando, algo acá que no nos estas contando Victoria. ¿Enemigos adentro? ¿Que Jasper sea como el agente pa calmarlo? ¿Se puede confiar en Gil?

“This conversation is just you and me.”

“Okay. I know Jasper, and I’m honestly more worried about the attitudes of the people you gave me than I am about the protest or whatever it is people are going to pull with Bad Apple.”

“Jasper’s attitude isn’t great.”

Ah, vale, Gil si es de confianza, pero cualquier otro no. Y parece que Gil no se toma tan enserio los problemas de la mecha corta de la gente. Al menos hay comunicacion adentro.

Y quizá Vic pueda lanzar un gran “te lo dije”

Also: Yep, Jasper es un geek.

“Jasper is a joker and he can be immature, but he can give that five pounds of gun speech because he believes it. He’s in this because he thinks capes are cool, not because he’s pissed. Give me one person I know will agree with me.”

Jasper cada vez me gusta mas y mas.

Y si, sirve tener alguien de la gente que pueda calmar las cosas, para que no sea algo al estilo “autoridad” v/s “grupo”.

“I kind of need every senior I can get. But I’ll give you that.”

I bit my lip, thinking as I worked the combination of the safe at the topmost section of my locker. I pulled out the pistol and holstered it. I kept my hand there, reminding myself of the weapon’s weight as I tried to figure out how to word my question, and if I wanted to ask it.

Tomar el arma, antes de preguntar algo duro, como recordandose las 5 libras de carne pistola que tenía en sus manos, ¿como si fuera el peso del poder? ¿Tiene que ver con poder la pregunta?

“Then how about you take some of the angry ones? The new guys you were giving me.”

“That was a quick assessment.”

Gil no se lo toma enserio, yeah.

I gathered the pistol magazines and slotted them into the pouch, before setting to attaching the pouch to my leg and belt. “I don’t want them. I don’t want to get some people from elsewhere with their own habits and ways of doing things, and have to train them on top of doing this thing.”

Ok, entonces hay PRTeens en otros lugares, otros grupos, quizá un grupo entero de PRTeens enojados y furiosos con los superheroes por fallarles, por dejar la escoba.

Esto se ve complejo.

“Take them, Victoria,” Gilpatrick said. “They came with good recommendations, they know their stuff, and if it does wind up being a protest, you’ll want the extra bodies. If it doesn’t, then it doesn’t matter.”

Gil confia en el sistema, en sus superiores, le cuesta ver lo general, lo que puede pasar.

Y esto mas o menos dice que hay otros grupos que piensan con este odio, de manera antagonista. Nosotros v/s Ellos. Parahumanos V/S Normales.

“Things are never that simple, Gil,” I said.

“Take them,” he said, firm.

No cedas....

“You owe me for this,” I said.

“I know,” he said.

I sighed.

*SIGH*

I Sighed too. No deberías haber hecho eso. Ahora si queda la escoba.

God damn, ¿como logran que Vic parezca simpática?

Armor. I pulled my vest from the bottom of the locker. I saved it for last because once it was on, I wouldn’t be able to bend down or move as easily. The old name and number was still visible by the impression that had been made in the armor when it had been punched in and painted on. The steel-wool scrubbing I’d given it hadn’t erased the whole impression.

A ver. Victoria, antes, tenía un poder que era como una especie de campo de fuerza telekinético alrededor suyo, que la escudaba, la hacía basicamente invulnerable.

Y ahora usa un chaleco del PRT como armadura, wadafak?

cosas extra, estan intentando ocultar su simbología con el PRT. ¿Porque es un recuerdo que los hace sentirse avergonzados de si mismos?

I didn’t know who Cameron was or where they’d ended up, but I wore their armor now. I tucked the papers in between my chest and the armor, where the straps would help keep them in place.

Oh.

oh....

Ok, eso es, duro, ocupar la ropa de un muerto che.

I spoke, “It’s a cushy job, I get to geek out and show off, and I like my office and the access I get to the portal, I don’t want to take that for granted, but you owe me a few already. This is one more.”

Buena pega, servicio dental, todo tiquitaca, unos cuantos portales, 8/10.

Me gusta cada vez mas la dinamica de Gil y Vic, como que no es del todo horizontal, pero casi.

bueno, siguen charlan, no s lleva el pack completo gigante de toda la ayuda, y tiene a Jasper. Tiquitaca todo.

I used fingernails to comb my hair back, then began braiding it. I had to look in the mirror to make sure I’d gotten all of the stray strands.

Hi me, I thought, as I made eye contact.

Oh...

¿Quedaste desfigurada verdad?

¿Que piensa Victoria Dallon de como se ve ahora?

¿Que ha pasado

Diabolik lovers Lost Eden Subaru Sakamaki (dark prologue) ~translation~ (Spanish and English)

This translation was made by @dj-diabolik-fan

Esta traducción esta en español abajo de todo~ Translation under the cut~

Yui's Monologue

And the one that inherited KarlHeinz's power was,

no one other than Subaru.

I still remember what happened clearly that day.

What KarlHeinz had prepare for us in the moment we went—

-End-

*Flashback*

Subaru: I don't understand it! Why would you trust your power to me? Don't say weird things!

Subaru: I definitely won't accept that power!

KarlHeinz: *Laugh* ... ... ... ...

*KarlHeinz gives his power to Subaru*

Subaru: —Guh!?

Yui: Subaru!?

Yui: (Suddenly he moved in a strong way...)

Yui: (Could it be that KarlHeinz is doing it!?)

Subaru: Agh... Guh...

KarlHeinz: I won't accept your rejection. It has already been decided that this power would be inherited by you.

KarlHeinz: I decided that this power would be given to you. And I don't have the intensions of changing my mind.

KarlHeinz: You don't have the right to reject it. My dear son Subaru.

*KarlHeinz get closer to Subaru*

KarlHeinz: I shall give you my everything to you.

Subaru: ... ...! Stop!!!!

*KarlHeinz starts disappearing*

KarlHeinz: The gears started working. No one can stop them now.

KarlHeinz: And... I will leave the rest to you.

*Flashback Ends*

Place: Sakamaki Living Room

Yui: (—Since that, seems that Subaru is depress and until now he is mad.)

Yui: (But, he inherited that power forcefully without right to do anything, so I suppose it can't be help...)

Yui: (Also, that power is from KarlHeinz who Subaru hated with his soul...)

*Sound of... (?)*

Reiji: ...Nevertheless, this is worrying.

Yui: Huh...?

Reiji: Im talking about that the presence of the intruder vanished.

Reiji: To make fun of us saying to make him have fun. He surely has an objective.

Yui: ... ...Is true.

*Flashback*

???: Hahaha. You all are truly idiots. Don't disappoint me.

*Flashback Ends*

Yui: (He doesn't only worry about the power, also for the intruder that came into the mansion...)

Reiji: ...I'll go back to my room now. You also stay alert and keep watching out.

Yui: Yes...

Yui: (I shoulder also go back to my room. But... I don't wanna leave Subaru alone...)

Subaru: *Sighs* ... ... ... ...

Subaru: Tch, don't make that worried face!

Yui: But...

Subaru: Shut up! You don't have to be so afraid of a guy who you haven't even seen!

*Subaru hits the wall*

Subaru: —Oi! I don't know who you are but come out of wherever you are hidden!

Subaru: After all you should still be there, right!?

*Subaru keeps throwing things*

Yui: Subaru, calm down...

Subaru: Don't be annoying! Stay quiet!

*Subaru hits things again*

Subaru: You know, where or what type of guy it is,

Subaru: but the simply fact that he is can still be in this mansion is annoying!

Subaru: If you are still there then go out! I'll brake into pieces!

Yui: S-Subaru...

Yui: (Seems no one wants to move... I have to stop him now...!)

Yui: B-But! If he came here planing something, then he won't come out so easily from he is...

???: Not really? I can go out easily.

Subaru: !?

Yui: Y-You are...

???: My name is Kino. I show up because they called me.

Subaru: You finally show your face. I'll brake all of you!

*Yui grabs him by the arm*

Yui: Y-You shouldn't do that! Calm down Subaru...!

Subaru: Agh, don't stop me!

Yui: B-But...!

Kino: Fufu. So Subaru get angry easily~ Ya~

*Kino walks closer to Subaru and wants to shake hands*

Subaru: ...Ah? What's with that hand.

Kino: Because c'mon, I'm a vampire, you know?

Subaru: Huh? I'm telling you what do you mean with that?

Kino: In other words... Since we are demons you shouldn't be intimidating, that.

Kino: Since we are like this, let's get along. ...In various ways, yes?

Subaru: Huh!? DON'T FUCK WITH ME!

Subaru: Suspicious guys like you can't come in just like that!

*Kino steps back*

Kino: That's certainly true.

*Music rock starts playing*

Subaru: Bastard... Don't OPEN YOUR FUCKING MOUTH MORE THAN THIS!

*Subaru attacks Kino and he moves to the side*

Yui: (That from before was Subaru's magic...!?)

Kino: —Uh. It was expectable with KarlHeinz's magic.

Subaru: Oi, don't run away! This time—

Yui: No! Subar—

*All Subaru's power destroys the house*

Yui: Kyaa!?

Subaru: ! ...YUI!

*Subaru runs towards Yui*

Subaru: Are you okay!?

Yui: ...S-Si. It's just a scratch. I'm fine.

Subaru: ...But...!

Kino: HAHA, what a piece! Your debility is her?

Kino: *Smirk* I seee. Fufu. I ended up knowing something good~

Subaru: *Mad* Kuh... ...!

Yui: Subaru! Please, clam down...?

Yui: I know you want to ask many thing to Kino, but if you get mad like this you won't be able to listen to them.

Subaru: *Calms down* ... ... ... ...

Subaru: You... are Kino, isn't it that right. Why did you come for?

Kino: Mm? I just came to say hello. Since I will now take control of your power, so it feels like "a pleasure working with youu~" or something like that.

Subaru: ?... Taking control of the power?

Yui: Does that mean you are talking about Subaru's power, right...!?

Kino: Yes. Since I have the right to control KarlHeinz's power.

Subaru: ...What do you mean?

Kino: ...The truth is that I'm one of KarlHeinz's sons, I'm your brother.

Yui: Eh...!?

Kino: Even though they kept hiding me. Seems you didn't knew I existed.

Subaru: ! ...Don't lie! Are you fucking with me!?

Kino: Is not a lie~. —Baaam!!

*Kino let's out his power and the house shakes*

Yui: —!?

Kino: Aaah, I'm sorry. I didn't thought that even the walls would fall down.

Kino: But... Hey, hey. Not even with this Subaru believes me?

Subaru: ... ... ... ...

Yui: (Having an incredible power on the Gekai... How strong is Kino's power...!?)

Yui: (...Could it be he truly is KarlHeinz's son...

Subaru: ...You, what are you truly? What do you mean you are the old man's son?

Kino: ...Even if you tell me I am. Well, since we are brothers I'll tell you...

Kino: I don't know my mother. And also, since I was born I've been living on the Rodeberg.

Kino: You have already heard of it, right? Where the ghouls live. I was abandoned there.

Subaru: Abandoned...?

Kino: Exactly. ...Just like your mother.

Subaru: ... ...!

Yui: (I see... ...Subaru's mother also...)

Kino: The ghouls picked me, they were watched by KarlHeinz front there.

Kino: And with a bonus, I got a great power, right?

Kino: I was given that power, and I knew about my father KarlHeinz.

Subaru: *Sad face* ... ... ... ...

Ayato: What was that from before... Uwa!? Everywhere you look at is destroyed!

Kanato: Is the shakes fault! My cake is nothing now...!

Kino: Oh... *Walks back* Seems problems have come, so I'll get going.

Yui: W-Wait! Kino!

Kino: Everything would be alright, I will come back again! See you, Eve! Subaru!

Yui: ... ... ... ...

Ayato: Oi, Subaru! What was that from before!

Kanato: Could it be that it is your fault!?

Subaru: *Still sad* ... ... ... ...

Yui: Subaru, are you alright...?

Subaru: *With a sad and calm tone* Leave me... Alone for a moment.

Yui: Huh?

*Subaru leaves*

Yui: (Subaru'a back looks lonely...)

Yui: (I want to follow him but... I can't find the fitting words to say to him.)

Yui: ...Subaru...

-Yui's Monologue

Subaru recently her mother...

—He lost Christa.

She was forced to be KarlHeinz's wife,

and thanks to it her mind went off.

Subaru was thinking of that but...

The truth is that Christa was always thinking on KarlHeinz.

And Subaru remembers KarlHeinz with despite and hate for not loving her.

After all... Christa ended up dying.

Surely that was another stab in Subaru's heart, I'm sure of it.

—That's why

Seeing Kino in the same situation as Christa,

he ended up very shock.

-End Of Monologue

Yui: ...Kino, huh.

Yui: (Could he really be KarlHeinz's son...?)

Yui: (I was even thinking he was healing from his mother's death but...)

Yui: (...Seems it would be better if he takes it slowly.)

*Vanishes*

Place: Subaru's Room

*Hit*

Subaru: Shit, that old man...! Only him, I will definitely won't forgive him...!

*Vanishes*

Place: Kino's house

???: Welcome back, Kino.

Kino: I back. Hey Yuri, where is that thing?

Yuri: ...Here.

*Yuri hands it to him*

Kino: Thanks. *Drinks* ...Nn...

Kino: Mm~ How I thought the guayaba juice is delicious.

Yuri: ...Did everything went well?

Kino: Yup. It's progressing successfully. Seems is easy to use him.

Kino: Fufu. I'll wait for it with excitement.

~End Of The Dark Prologue~@totallydiabolik Christa! ;u;

Monólogo de Yui.

Y el que recibió la fuerza de KarlHeinz-san fue, ni nadie más que Subaru-kun.

Aún recuerdo claramente lo que pasó ese día.

Lo que KarlHeinz tenía preparado en el momento en el que fuimos--

Fin.

*FlahsBack*

Subaru: No lo entiendo! Que vas a confiarme tu fuerza? No digas cosas raras! Subaru: Definitivamente yo no aceptaré esa fuerza! KarlHeinz: *Risa* ... ... ... ...

*Karl envia la fuerza hacia Subaru* JAJAJA, cuando no queres y te la meten de prepo.

Subaru: ---Guh!? Yui: Subaru-kun!? Yui: (De repente se movió de una forma muy fuerte...) Yui: (Podría ser que KarlHeinz-san lo esta haciendo!?) Subaru: Agh... Guh... KarlHeinz: No permitiré que rechaces. Ya esta decidido que esta fuerza será entregada a ti. KarlHeinz: Yo decidí que esta fuerza te la daría a ti. Y no tengo intenciones de cambiar eso. KarlHeinz: Tú no tienes el derecho de rechazar. Mi hijo Subaru.

*Karl se acerca a Subaru*

Karlheinz: Te daré mi todo a ti. Subaru: ... ...! Detente!!!!

*Karl comienza a desaparecer*

KarlHeinz: Los engranajes comenzaron a girar. Ya nadie puede detenerlos. KarlHeinz: Y... te dejo el resto a ti.

*Fin del FlashBack*

Lugar: Living Sakamaki.

Yui: (--Desde eso, parece que Subaru-kun esta deprimido y hasta ahora sigue enojado.) Yui: (Pero, recibió esa fuerza obligadamente sin poder hacer nada, así que supongo que no se puede hacer...) Yui: (Ademas, esa fuerza es de KarlHeinz-san a quien Subaru-kun odia tanto...)

*Sonidos de QUE MIERDA ES ESO!?*

Reiji: ...Sin embargo, esto es preocupante. Yui: Eh...? Reiji: Estoy hablando con respecto a que la presencia del intruso desapareció. Reiji: Para burlarse de nosotros diciendo que lo divirtamos. Seguramente debe tener un objetivo. Yui: ... ...Es verdad.

*Flashback*

???: Ahaha. Si que son unos idiotas. No me decilucionen.

*Fin del flashback*

Yui: (No sólo se preocupa por lo de la fuerza, si no también por el intruso que vino a la mansión...) Yui: (Hay un montón de cosas que pensar...) Reiji: ...Yo volveré a mi habitación. Tú también ponte bastante alerta y no dejes de vigilar. Yui: Si... Yui: (Yo también debería volver a mi habitación. Pero... no quiero dejar a Subaru-kun solo...) Subaru: *Suspira* ... ... ... ... Subaru: Tch, no hagas esa cara tan preocupada! Yui: Pero... Subaru: Cállate! No necesitas tener tanto miedo de un tipo que ni siquiera has visto!

/Awwww, Subaru esta así porque no quiere que Yui tenga miedo xDD

*Subaru golpea la pared*

Subaru: ---OÍ! No sé quien seas pero sal de donde estes! Subaru: Después de todo aún debes seguir ahí, no es así!?

*Subaru sigue tirando cosas alv*

Yui: Subaru-kun, cálmate... Subaru: No seas molesta! Has silencio!

*Subaru vuelve a patear cosas*

Subaru: Sabes, no sé de donde ni que tipo será, Subaru: pero el simple hecho de que aún pueda seguir en esta mansión es molesto! Subaru: Si estas ahí entonces sal! Te haré pedazos! (Así no saldría Subaru-kun xD) Yui: S-subaru-kun... Yui: (Parece que nadie tiene ganas de moverse... Tengo que detenerlo aquí...!) Yui: P-pero! Si es que vino aquí planeando algo, entonces no saldrá tan facilmente de donde este... ???: No en realidad? Yo puedo salir fácilmente. (JAJAJAJAAJ, ay CASI ME DA UN INFARTO) Subaru: !? Yui: T-tú eres... ???: Mi nombre es Kino. Me muestro porque me llamaron. Subaru: Al fin das la cara. Te haré trisas!

*Yui lo agarra del brazo*

Yui: N-no debes hacer eso! Cálmate, Subaru-kun...! Subaru: Agh, no me detengas! Yui: P-pero...! Kino: Fufu. Subaru-kun es un enojón~ ya~

*Kino se acerca a Subaru y... quiere estrechar su mano!?* A caso sos Kou o es mi imaginación:v

Subaru: ...Ah? Qué sucede con esa mano. Kino: Porque vamos, yo soy un vampiro, sabes? Subaru: Ahh? Te estoy diciendo que es lo que quieres decir con eso? Kino: En otras palabras... ya que somos demonios no tienes por que ser intimidante, eso. Kino: Ya que estamos, llevemonos bien. ...En muchos sentidos, si? (Eeeeee, alejate de Subaru Kino, shushuuuuu) Subaru: Haa? NO ME JODAS! Subaru: Los tipos sospechosos que se meten a casas ajenas, (no entedí, quiere decir que es sospechoso por entrar)

*Kino se aleja* Rechazado papuh

Kino: Ciertamente es correcto. *MÚSICA DEL ROCK SALKDJALKE*

Subaru: Bastardo... no habras TÚ PUTA BOCA MÁS QUE ESTO!

*Subaru ataca a Kino pero Kino NOPE TE LO ESQUIVO PUTO AHAHHAAHHA*

Yui: (Eso de recién fue la magia de Subaru-kun...!?) Kino: --Uh. Como era de esperarse de obtener la fuerza de KarlHeinz. Subaru: Oí, no huyas! Esta vez--- Yui: No! Subaru-ku--

*Wtf toda la fuerza hace verga la casa*

Yui: Kyaa!?

Subaru: !...YUI!

*Subaru corre hacia Yui*

Subaru: Estas bien!? Yui: ...S-si. Sólo me rasguñé un poco. Estoy bien. Subaru: ..Pero...! Kino: AHAHA, que obra maestra! Ante ella eres débil?/ella es tu debilidad? (Veeerga, ni pasamos del prólogo y ya nos descubrieron la debilidad :'v) Kino: *Sonrisa malvada* Ya veoo. Fufu. Terminé sabiendo algo bueno~ Subaru: *enojado* Kuh... ...! Yui: Subaru-kun! Por favor, cálmate...? Yui: Sé que quieres preguntarles muchas cosas a Kino-kun, pero si te enojas así no podrás escucharlas. Subaru: *Se tranquiliza* ... ... ... ... Subaru: Tú... eres Kino, no es así. Qué es lo que viniste a hacer aquí? Kino: Mm? Sólo vine a saludar. Desde ahora tomaré el control de tu fuerza, así que se siente como un ''un gusto de trabajar contigooo~'' o algo así. Subaru: ?... Tomar el control de la fuerza? Yui: Eso quiere decir que estas hablando de la fuerza de Subaru-kun, no es así...!? (Ehh... acaba de decir eso linda) Kino: Si. Ya que yo tengo derecho a manejar/controlar la fuerza de KarlHeinz. Subaru: ...Qué quieres decir? Kino: ...La verdad es que yo también soy un hijo de KarlHeinz, soy su hermano. Yui: Eh...!? Kino: Aunque me estuvieron escondiendo. Parece que ustedes no sabian que yo existia. Subaru: ! ...No mientas! Estas jodiendo conmigo!? Kino: No es mentira~. ----Baaam!!

*JAJAJA BAAAAM KINO LIBERA SU FUERZA Y LA CASA TIEMBLA*

Yui: ---!? Kino: Aaah, lo siento. No pensé que hasta las paredes se desmoronarian. Kino: Pero... oye, oye. Aún con esto Subaru no me cree? Subaru: ... ... ... ... Yui: (Tener una increible fuerza en el Gakai... Hasta donde de fuerte debe llegar la fuerza de Kino-kun...!?) Yui: (...Podría ser que realmente sea el hijo de KarlHeinz...) Subaru: ...Tú, realmente qué cosa eres? Qué quiere decir con que eres el hijo del viejo? Kino: ...Aunque me digas que soy. Bueno, ya que somos hermanos te lo diré... Kino: No conozco a mi madre. Ademas, desde que nací he vivido en Rodeberg. Kino: Ya habrás escuchado de ello, no es así? Donde viven los ghouls. Yo fui abandonado ahí. Subaru: Abandonado...? Kino: Así es. ...Justo como tu madre. Subaru: ... ...! Yui: (Ya veo... ... la madre de Subaru-kun también...) Kino: Lo ghouls que me recogieron, eran mirados por KarlHeinz desde ahí. Kino: Y como bonus, conseguí una gran fuerza, verdad? Kino: Se me dio esa fuerza, y yo supe de mi padre KarlHeinz. Subaru: *Pone una cara triste*... ... ... ... Ayato: Qué fue lo de recién... uwa!? Donde quieras que mires esta todo destruido! Kanato: Es culpa del temblor! Mi pastel esta hecho trisas...! Kino: Oh...*Se aleja* parece que vinieron los problemas, así que me irep. Yui: E-espera! Kino-kun! Kino: Todo esta bien, volveré a venir! Nos vemos, Eva! Subaru! Yui: ... ... ... ... Ayato: Oí, Subaru! Qué fue lo de recién! Kanato: Podría ser que es tu culpa!? Subaru: *Sigue triste*... ... ... ... Yui: Subaru-kun, estas bien...? Subaru: ...*Con tono triste y relajado* Déjame... un momento solo. Yui: Eh?

*Subaru se va*

Yui: (La espalda de Subaru-kun se ve solitaría...) (Quiere decir como que él se esta viendo solitario, osea, triste) Yui: (Quiero seguirlo pero... no encuentro las palabras adecuadas para decirle.) Yui: ...Subaru-kun...

-Monólogo de Yui

Subaru-kun recientemente a su madre ---Perdió a Crista-san.

Ella fue forzadamente a ser la esposa de KarlHeinz-san, y gracias a eso su mente se volvió loca. Subaru-kun lo estaba pensando pero...

La verdad es que Crista-san siempre estaba pensando en Karlheinz-san.

Y Subaru-kun recuerda a KarlHeinz-san con desprecio y odio por no haberla amado.

Después de todo... Crista-san terminó muriendo.

Seguramente eso habrá sido otro golpe para el corazón de Subaru-kun, estoy segura de eso.

--Es por eso que

Al haber visto a Kino-kun en la misma situación que Crista-san, habrá quedado aún más shockeado.

-Fin.

Yui: ...Kino-kun, eh. Yui: (Realmente él será un hijo de KarlHeinz...?) Yui: (Incluso había pensado que se estaba recuperando de la muerte de su madre pero...) Yui: (...Parece que sería mejor si va suavemente.)

*Desvanece*

Lugar: Habitación de Subaru.

*Golpe*

Subaru: Mierda, ese viejo...! Solamente a él, definitivamente no lo perdonaré...!

*Desvanece*

Lugar: Casa de Kino.

???: Bienvenido de vuelta a casa, Kino. Kino: Estoy en casa. Oye Yuuri, donde esta aquello? Yuuri: ...Aquí.

*Yuuri se lo da*

Kino: Gracias: *Bebe*...Nn... Kino: Mm~ como lo pensé el jugo de guayaba es delicioso. Yuuri: ...Le fue bien allí? Kino: Sip. Va progresando con éxito. Parece que es muy fácil usarlo. Kino: Fufu. Lo estaré esperando con emoción.

~Fin del dark prólogo~
