here is a list. full of stuff.

[schmerica]

HERE IS A LIST OF THINGS I THOUGHT ABOUT TODAY:

1) Subjects I want to study and roll around in like a puppy in filth: medieval Celtic languages; translation theory; the history of Romanian; pidgins and creolization; nonstandard Englishes; language preservation and revitalization; languages and writing systems.

(LINGUISTICS ILU.)

2) Other things I want:

a. A BRENDON URIE OF MY OWN. Why so adorable on the Tonight Show? UGH SHUT YOUR STUPID FACE AND YOUR HOMOQUEERNESS AND YOUR ENTIRE SELF. Also I don't really like the song America's Suitehearts much in general, but Joe Troh looked hot, and Pete whirled around in a circle an awful lot without any rhythm related to the song, so I give the entire thing a thumbs up.

b. MORE WAYCEST. Seriously it has been forever you guys, write me some porn. Or if you want I will always accept Pete/Mikey shenanigans instead.

3) Everybody I love is in Boston this weekend. :( THEY HELD A MUSKRATE JAMBOREE AND I DIDN'T COME. There is nothing not right in the world. If I don't get plenty of drunken texts from people -- you know who you are -- I will hold a grudge forever.

and yet i have heard it is the modern language closest to latin! is this true?

[cheshireempress.livejournal.com]

Supposedly that would be Italian, but I haven't studied Romanian or Portuguese enough to say for sure. Why is not enough time to learn all the languages? ;___;

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

That makes sense, but I have also heard that Romanian has some conservative grammatic elements that the others got rid of pretty fast. But I haven't really studied it either, so I don't know if that's true.

I remember when I was at University, we had a lecture given by a man who was one of 4 speakers of an Indigenous Australian language.

THAT WAS *AWESOME*

I've been writing Pete/Mikey/Alicia Warped Tour sex pollen lately. It's IM-fic, and I don't know if I'll finish it, but:

(It's a Warped party. There's stuff everywhere. And it takes Pete a while to realize why Mikey is so determinedly all over him, but realization hits about the same time Mikey's hand finds its way into Pete's pants. In need of reinforcements, he calls in Alicia.)

She turns Mikey's face to her. "Tell me the truth. Do you suck in bed?"

He looks up at her, panting a little. "Suck what?"

She laughs, but Mikey whimpers, and she raises her eyebrows. "You were serious, huh?" He nods. "In that case, we have a deal."

Now that there's another, female, option, Pete's mostly thinking about how he'd really like to watch. He swallows hard and says, "...maybe I should stick around. Just to make sure everything's okay."

Mikey gives him this look, and Pete stares down at his shoes. "C'mon," he says softly. "It's not that..." Not that I don't want to? Not that I'm gay? Not that I wouldn't help you, if she weren't here? He doesn't know, so he leaves it.

Alicia puts her arm around Mikey, who shivers a little and presses closer to her, turning his face into her shoulder. "It's okay," she says, and kisses the top of his head. "Do you want Pete to come with us?"

Mikey hesitates and Pete feels his heart freeze, but then he gives a tiny, quick nod. Alicia takes his hand and leads him out, giving Pete a very pointed Look over her shoulder.

The FOB bus is empty, Pete knows, and he touches Alicia's wrist before heading in that direction. The other two follow, Mikey stumbling a little bit over his feet, and Pete punches the code into the door of the bus.

As soon as the door hisses shut behind them, Mikey turns, pinning Alicia against the door and kissing her hard. She tenses, and Pete realizes suddenly just how seldom he's seen her with a guy. Alicia, on tour, keeps to herself-- she'll hang with the guys all night, but she vanishes when the hook-ups start.

"You okay?" he asks, and she pushes Mikey away from her, walks him back until she has him pinned against the opposite wall.

"You want to do shit?" she asks him. "Or do you want shit done to you?"

Mikey shudders, whining low in his chest. "Anything," he says, in a soft raspy voice. "Anything is good enough."

I HOPE YOU KNOW I REALLY AM VERY FOND OF YOU.
