So, those posts about 'jagiya' translations into other languages? Yeah, i love them.
Sadly, German has virtually no cute terms of endearment, alas, I put a spin on it: I present to you, Austrian German curse words Jongwoo would use on Moonjo
(Because Austrians looovee swearing and using obscure curse words)
1. Deppata (idiot)
10/10
I feel like it works with the way Jongwoo usually speaks with Moonjo?? I would definitely scream 'deppada' the same way Jongwoo does 'saekkiya', and it can be easily used with other curse words
2. Oaschloch (asshole)
6/10
This is THE word you hear in Vienna lmao, but I think Jongwoo would be too much of a 'countryboy' to actually use that. Plus it doesn't work with the way he yells at Moonjo?? Like I'd use it in a derogatory looking-down-on-someone kind of way
3. Wichsa (literally a man who ejaculates xd)
7/10
Slightly better than 'Oaschloch', but still too calm I think?? Also Moonjo is too elegant for a person I'd typically think to be a 'wichsa'
4. Goschada (annoyingly talkative person)
8.5/10
Moonjo loves annoying Jongwoo with words (and actions, but his creepiness is often conveyed through encouragements and words), and 'Goschada' is PERFECT for that
5. Gfrast (brat)

Hmmmm not enough anger for me?? I feel like it's used more towards (annoying, malicious) children or younger people, so maybe Jongwoo would use it when Moonjo is really annoying him? Idk
“My wish is simple, Princess Dumai. Take me with you”, Nikeya says after straight-up threatening Dumai’s closest friends. And then Dumai responds with “So you can smother me in my sleep?” JFC I looooovvee enemies to lovers, and they’re opposite clans in the royal court??? And also, Dumai recognises Nikeya by her smell in this scene?? I’m foaming at the mouth
Trying to be more healthy
Easter egg in priory? Maybe?
When Sabran and Crest and Combe and all of them discuss possible suitors on page 83 of the paperback, they talk how Lievelyn’s trade with Seiiki is shameful, and how the heresy killed the engagement?? They talk about Sabran marrying a 70 year old Hróthi man, and reference Glorian and Guma. Aka, how Glorian still wed Guma and gave birth to a healthy child. And you know who brought up Guma???? Ritshard ELLER I cannot believe it?!
sangwoon looks like she's been crying for a couple of centuries in every screenshot i see of her
hc that Eddie was totally Steve’s 9th grade crush. Like before Steve got really popular and he’d just watch the weird ass sophomore jump onto tables and give speeches with the biggest heart eyes. He wrote half a love letter, panicked, and scribbled it out with “GET OUT OF MY SCHOOL” written over.
hold on a fucking second. delaware is a state?? i thought it was a river? or is the river more important than the state? why don't i know this? (i should mention i don't like in america, i'm just confused)
there is delaware (state) and delaware (river)
both are equally strange
the state is a tiny little cryptid thing
the rive is a monster that spans new york, pennsylvania, new jersey and delaware. also washington crossed it once and that was like kinda a big deal i guess. like crossing the rubicon in rome.
the state tries to me more important with its “im the first state!!!” bs (seriously its even on the fucking license plates) but we all know. its the river.
KING OF THE....stage? 👑👑
finished the last couple of chapters of Nona yesterday and when I tell you I was sobbing!!
the amount of times that Nona says she’s hot and beautiful while in Harrows body, but then detesting the body John gave her, the one that looks like a Barbie. I read a post about it maybe being understood as the Earth liking her indigenous body (Harrow) versus being horrified at being put in a westernised ideal of beauty? and I think that’s a great interpretation.
also,, the writing style of Alecto’s chapter?? please, let the fourth book be mainly written like that I’m on my knees begging. it was a trip but sooooo fun to read (including Gideon’s (get in line, thou big slut) and Ianthe and Harrow’s exchange (I think it’s them) of ‘my sweet I only die of longing for thee’ ‘then perish’.
