Existing is cool. We all exist in some capacity.

I hope you do well in the seal of biliteracy test! I personally have another few years before I need to take it, and that will be in French most likely.

Hopefully if I do write a fanfic you will just end up finding it in the wild. Not likely but it could happen

Anyway, I hope that you start to feel more human later.

Existing is pretty cool! And thank you. I have no clue what my scoring is gonna be on that one, because I know my speaking section was...subpar at best, but maybe the other 3 sections were good enough to offset that? Who knows!

At least you know that it's a possibility! I didn't even know the seal or the test was a thing until like a month ago when I got an email like "hey quil sign up to take this test you took enough foreign language credits for it" like...you mean the courses I took...over a year ago??

just because I have an associated in spanish doesn't mean I know what I'm doing

And even if its unlikely for me to find your fic in the wild, I can still hope! I mean, i'll never know whether or not it was yours, but still! But yeah unlikely. I don't read a lot of fanfic, actually. Like 95% of the time I read a fic it's to support a mutual who wrote it, not because I particularly felt like reading fics. Ironic considering I'm a fic writer, but true.

Thank you for the well wishes though! I'm not particularly concerned with feeling human, but I understand and appreciate the sentiment, and I wish the same for you!

#quil's queries #⚙️ nonsie #i took 2 french classes once upon a time #because for my spanish degree I was required to take a second foreign language too #but my asl didn't count #so there was one semester I was taking spanish and french and asl (3 foreign languages) all at the same time #I. would not recommend doing that #i now know practically zero french and my spanish and french got mixed up for months after that #the asl was fine though. i think a sign language and a spoken language can be learned together a lot easier #so that part wasn't bad #it was the spanish and french at the same time that fucked me up #but I'd like to learn french one day #that way I know the two. what are they called. not universal #but basically certain things in foreign languages are required to have a translation to either french or english #so I'd like to know both #oh this is gonna bug me hang on gonna ask my dad #oh apparently I was right! french and english are considered the universal languages #and on the ship (he was in the coast guard) it needed to be in either english or french and the local language #so. there's that
