It would have been considerably easier if the universe had just let him have his dramatic self-sacrificial death and be done with it.

Bryce wanted to, of course; that’s the entire point of a self-sacrifice. There was no way out and he couldn’t let anyone get their hands on the Intersect, so he threw himself on his sword and made his last ( Read more... )

chuck, this is a fic, this is not el laberinto del fauno, the internet is fascinating, the klingon for i love you is qamusha', fic: chuck

a country that unnoticeable must be hiding something
and the blue screen of death! and everything!

(I spent far too much time looking up all that Klingon. I vaguely feel like I'm betraying my Tolkien-loving-Elvish-speaking roots XD)

Hey, I had to look it up in the first place. And actually I kind of want to learn more about it now. Glad you liked it!

ooh, interesting. i was going to ask what all the klingon meant, but not anymore. because it did feel like i was on the outside of an inside joke, and that's sort of what i like about chuck/bryce. i [would like to] think that's how all of the other characters feel about the two of them, too - chuck and bryce have this connection/friendship that they're stuck on the outside of.

Well, if you ever do get the urge to find out what the hell Bryce was talking about, Googling the phrases will probably get you a nice translation. (What else is the Internet for?) But yeah, I see your point--actually it's quite a nice point. Hmm. Now I'm wondering just what it was Bryce said to confirm Chuck's identity, because they didn't exactly tell us, did they...unless they did and my memory is a sieve-like object. Glad you liked it, though!

Actually, if you google the title, the first two entries are this fic.

Also, the last Klingon phrase in the fic only shows up here in Google.

Yeah, I just figured that out. See, for various reasons, I had to hand-type that one into LJ, and, well, that damn red line in Microsoft Word's spellcheck makes it rather difficult to tell the difference between an O and a Q...but it's been fixed now! Thanks for pointing it out, though.

...well, uh, maybe Googling 'Klingon phrases' and 'Klingon proverbs' will get you the answers you seek. That's where I got them from originally, after all.

....or maybe it's because of Word's stupid spellcheck that makes it impossible to tell the difference between a Q and an O. *headdesk* Fixed.

Maybe they’d both be on the run from Fulcrum and the CIA right now, using wireless cafés to hack into the enemy’s secret databases (there are always secret databases) and rigging ATMs for a cash supply and eating crappy fast food and finding out that the only room the hotel has available is a single.

Oh Bryce, you have such a rich fantasy life:)

I googled some of the klingon and I think I'm weirded out by how poetic some of it was...the memory of you sings in my blood...that's so *pretty*. Clearly Klingon is the new French:)

Hey, man, if Mylar can do it, why can't they? Only with less serial killing and more hacking and explosions. (I think the staple of every roadtrip fic is the hotel where the only room available is a single. It's just so convenient.)

The Klingon really is lovely--I kind of want to learn more about it, actually. Shut up, okay, geekiness is in my blood.
