:-untitled-:Your voiceless lullaby lingers in the air, even when you're dreaming.
Unable to sleep, my thoughts are not quite so sweet, utterly polluted with waking nightmares.

A jolt of hope strikes my mind. My fingers slide down your back, searching every crevice.
Groggily, you sit up, blinking in the darkness.
"What are you doing?" you ask.
It's a perfectly valid question.
"I'm looking for your wings," I reply.
"What wings?"
"I know you're hiding them."
You scarcely feel my gossamer touch, unchanged despite everything else.
"I don't understand," you say, reaching your arms past me (so short compared to mine, you have to lean closer

Shad-Part 7 "I thought you couldn't fly because you were hurt."
I never once said that. You assume too much.
"But your ribs..."
It's much easier for me to fly than it is to walk.
Cracked desert ground sped beneath them, indistinguishable shapes passing by in a blur. The noonday sun had risen swiftly, beating down mercilessly upon them. Only the strong headwind made the heat relatively bearable.
Shad insisted that they flew side-by-side this time, holding hands so they could communicate over the deafening rush of air.
"Where are we going?"
A city.
Amy looked over at him in surprise, shielding her face from the wind with her free hand. H

Dis-ap-pearThis isn’t right
Say goodnight
I’m about to disappear

Don’t be alarmed
You’ll see me now and then
I’ll pass you in the hall
Sit across from you at lunch
Help you study for that test

But you won’t even know my name
I’m just that ordinary mortal
With the glowing blue eyes
...and you’ll know I’m not quite normal

You’ll ask me again
And again
But I won’t answer
Once the memories start to flow
They’ll overtake you like a cancer

I won’t remind you of a thing
From our convoluted past...
...you should have known this wouldn’t last

This isn’t right
Say good

RA 02 - Latinby ~Genidoxian

Cartoons & Comics / Digital Media / Comics / Strips

This is how I study for the National Latin Exam.

Feel free to point out any grammar errors or poor word choices.

Literal Translation (including word order)
1: You I tell...the moon expedition...did not happen!
2: Is it not obvious? What are you saying, the evidence otherwise points? A BOOB believing in nonsense you are!
3: What now me you call? You I will kill!

...yeah, Latin is like Yoda-speak.

Yes, it's me again...
1: "te" := "tibi", "lunam...contingere" := "expeditionem ad lunam numquam contigisse"
2: "estne...manifestus" := "nonne manifestum est", "indicium...derigit" := "indicia esse contraria", "uber...es" := "uber es, qui hanc fabulam credis"
3: "iam me nomines" := "me nominavisti"

Actually, the 'contigisse' that you are suggesting would just be easier as, "expeditionem ad lunam numquam facta est," since 'fio' is the most common form of 'to happen.'

But kudos to you, I am very impressed with your knowledge of Latin, particularly your use of 'nonne!' How long have you studied this beloved language?

I know coming from a Latin 2 this may be totally off base, but for 'you I will kill' be a form of Necare? or am I losing it again? XD

~Genidoxian Apr 14, 2010 Student Writer

Nope, you're totally right. "Occidere" also means "to kill", but it also carries funny connotations such as "die" or "slaughter", so I used that because I felt like it.

Latin irony = the nerdiest thing ever.
