Week 1


[After the reveal of their handsome and well-dressed but stern-looking Overseer on Sunday, the Champions were left to their own devices in investigating the mall to their hearts' content. At around 10 pm every night the lights in all the shops will go down and the sturdy metal grates over the doors of the restaurants will go down. The stores will remain unlocked, though.

On Monday morning, a buzzing alarm chirps at them again from their PIPs at 7 am on the dot. There's also a pop-up message waiting for them: a notice announcing Xander will be holding office hours

Enjoy your week, Champions.]

Um...hm. It might be double the size, and also Eastern European and Welsh?

[personal profile] refusedtoleave 2018-02-11 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
What are those types of names like?
cyan_maid: (Give me all of the bacon and eggs you ha)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2018-02-11 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
They have a lot of syllables next to each other for long stretches of the word. It's almost impossible to say Welsh things unless you are in fact Welsh.

[But we have 0% against any Welsh people over here, this is just a general observation from a teenage American.]

Are they really that strange? I've already gotten used to saying non-Japanese names, so I wouldn't know.
cyan_maid: (Oooh lookie here)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2018-02-11 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
They are - I can't even pronounce them myself.
refusedtoleave: (Life)

[personal profile] refusedtoleave 2018-02-11 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
So you can't give an example?
cyan_maid: (What's that now?)

...Give me a second.

[As luck would have it, Jane keeps her notes on her person, and writes out the only Welsh word she can think of: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogo]

I think that's the whole thing? But that's supposed to be the name of a town.

[personal profile] refusedtoleave 2018-02-11 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
No...That's just a lot of letters.
cyan_maid: Jane is neutral or unsure (Um...)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2018-02-11 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
No, that's the name of a town in Wales.
refusedtoleave: (Rain)

[personal profile] refusedtoleave 2018-02-11 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't lie to me.
cyan_maid: (You are EMBARRASSING me!)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2018-02-11 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I...promise it isn't a lie, Ma'am...
refusedtoleave: (The Executioner)

[personal profile] refusedtoleave 2018-02-12 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
That's worse than 'Fight person'...

[That might be more to herself than anything.]
cyan_maid: Jane is neutral or unsure (Um...)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2018-02-12 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah Jane knows she said something? But she isn't sure what it is.]

...Well...I mean, Wales is a pretty small place anyway, so the language isn't exactly widespread.

[personal profile] refusedtoleave 2018-02-12 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Don't languages like that, die out?
cyan_maid: (Eerm)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2018-02-12 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Eventually. But there's still a lot of Welsh pride, as I'm aware?
refusedtoleave: (Fall)

[personal profile] refusedtoleave 2018-02-12 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't know. I've never traveled that far.
