MY FIRST DRUNK POST. HUZZAH.

HI FRIENDS. :D :D :D

Yep, I've had a few too many. Wine is ever so tasty.

Anyway, just posting to say that I went jet skiing today and now I think I am going to be sore. Also I have a question for you, my darlings, or at least for those of you who are going to be reading my inception_bang :

It's a WWII AU, and Eames speaks German quite a bit. Should I actually have

Comments

[niftywithan]

Yeah, I think I'm just going to stick with italics. I might throw in a word or two of actual German but it'll be easy to recognize and probably won't require a footnote.

I don't mind having foreign language in a fic but I hate having to scroll down to the bottom of the page to find out what they were saying.

[niftywithan]

Me too! That's why I think I'm going to stick mostly with italics. Easy reading experience trumps perfectionist. ;)

[renne]

Both of the above comments!

ALSO OMG WWII AU.

That is all.

[niftywithan]

I also agree with the above comments, so thank you!

AND YES HOLY CRAP AM I EXCITED ABOUT THIS BB. ♥

[niftywithan]

Ah, footnotes. So tempting. But I think I might stick to italics with a few German words thrown in to satisfy my perfectionism. I figure it will make the fic easier to read, and that's really what matters!

PS: I AM GLAD, I'M SUPER THRILLED TO BE WRITING THIS. :D

Well, as you well know, in my fic, I have a mute character and a lot of the time when she's signing, I just put it in italics.

Hope that helps! :)

Happy Labor Day to you as well, bb! ♥

[niftywithan]

Yep, I'm sticking with italics. It's just easier in the long run and then I don't have to worry about faulty translations, either.

PS: I got your email with the second part, and I promise I will beta it as soon as I get a chance!
