XI.
[Hellboy is currently in the lobby, smoking. He's headed outside for a walk, as he is wont to do, but he decides to open his journal first. Maybe preemptively sidestep some awkward language stuff before it happens.
Dictated in English!]
So, how long do these things usually last, anyway? This isn't like the time we were all stuck in the ocean, so I really hope it's not going to last the same amount of time, either.
Makes it kind of hard to get anything done around here.
[A pause, and then he dictates in French. Because he figures -- if you're the only person around who speaks a language, it would probably get really lonely, really fast.]
Er. Je parle français, au fait. Ce n'est pas très rare, mais je voudrais le mentionner.
[Then he repeats the same thing in Spanish and German. And ... after a pause ... repeats it in really stilted Latin. Dead languages are hard, okay, weeps.
This done, he finally heads out the door.]
[ooc. open over the journal or in person. i am going to be at work until 6pm est but i wanted to get this up while i had the chance! backtags to come ...]
