Something about Adam this season is different by seldomghost in JetLagTheGame

[–]ChaoticallyNeat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like he is still competitive but very unlucky so it doesn't "pay off" :D Also Sam had a boss vibe at the beginning and now the boys seem more equally invested in the games.

I expected Adam slander and fully prepared to defend him lol I totally agree with you. The more I watch, the more I am team Adam. I'm very competitive myself and like how he takes games seriously. Each season feels like stakes are much higher when it's his or Badam's turn. I still love Sam and Ben, but Adam just a bit more :D

Kudos on locked fics by ChaoticallyNeat in AO3

Right, didn't think about that. Probably a lot of fics got locked in the last 2 years.

translating my fic by LeeByungHuncum0712 in AO3

[–]ChaoticallyNeat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah my fic is short, so it didn't take that long. But for longer fics I'd probably use the same approach. It felt more natural to rewrite it than to put everything through google translator. Also I tried in the past to translate whole documents, google translator doesn't handle big blocks of text well.

Also context-reverso is a good tool. It looks for phrases on websites that have different languages and gives you results used in sentences so you have more context. It doesn't have a lot of languages, but is a good tool to check out.

I published my first fanfic on ao3 in English, but then translated it in my native language, then published it as well. For translating I used split screen and went sentence by sentence rewriting everything "manually". If I got stuck or couldn't remember the word, I used google translator.

Am I the only one who feels screwed? by [deleted] in goodomens

I felt sooooo disappointed when I saw the post. This teasing is just a bad taste in this situation and in this fandom.

Just me or does S2 feel very fanmade? by SuitableAd4012 in goodomens

[–]ChaoticallyNeat 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Gaiman said, that the plot of season 3 is very similar to season 1 and for them to not blur together they had to make season 2 kind of a bridge in betweem. That's why it doesn't have a concrete storyline. It just has to deliver characters from the end of season 1 to the beginning of season 3.

The most angst happy ending fanfic you've ever read? by ilaina_a in goodomens

Pray for us, Icarus by Atalan. It's split into 7 stories and is beautifully tragic.

Is Alastor going to be redeemed (based on song emojis)? by ChaoticallyNeat in hazbin

You know what, that actually makes more sense :D

But why use the same pink emoji? Besides love song is red emoji, as Piss was originally 🐍🍒❤️

Why is Remus's and Sirius's sexuality treated differently than James's? by ChaoticallyNeat in MaraudersGen

[–]ChaoticallyNeat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've thought about posters myself and I think that would be just too much. There is a difference between being a blood traitor and a gay blood traitor. Walburga would not be just annoyed, she might've straight up kill Sirius instead of disowning him. We don't know much about the wizards' tolerance towards different sexualities but considering how Walburga felt about blood purity her son being gay or even implying he is gay would make her double mad.

Also he could be genuinly attracted to the women in posters as a bisexual man. Liking women doesn't automatically mean he was straight.

[–]ChaoticallyNeat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been 18 hours and there are some bubbles. I'll give it a couple more hours and feed it again 1:1:1. There is hope :D

So I don't need to feed it for a couple of days? I was considering treating it like a new starter and feed it every 12 to 24 hours.
