oh i love this! ahh your karim is so darling, i just want someone to hug him until everything's okay! and i think the use of languages worked wonderfully, although i would change “L’eau?” to "D'eau?"- just the difference between saying "the water?" or "some water?" and a plus tard would make more sense if it was "À plus", most people tend to drop the "tard" from the end of the phrase (which, in its entirety, so if cris was speaking "learned" or textbook french it might work, is "Je te (or vous, depending on how well they know each other, but i think here cris would use te) verrais plus tard")

ahh sorry for all that picking! i really did think the different languages mixed wonderfully and i lied cristiano in this more than i usually like him (although he really is growing on me, bless him)

ah okay. i haven't really used french since high school so i tried my best! thank you for the clarification. i fixed it all up :)

i'm glad the languages worked (or at least for you) because it was difficult trying to incorporate them without being confusing. thank you for reading, helping and commenting :)
