OK, New Plan.

Space piracy isn't a thing. It's not economical, practical or something anyone can pursue for any length of time.

Anyway, the ship had been captured by space pirates, and they'd dropped the temperature in the passenger modules down to a few ticks under the freezing point of water: The Atrix passengers were all huddled up, torpid, protecting their little guys, and the Thotari Pirates were planning on pillaging the cargo and personal possessions while things were quiet.

They'd checked the manifest: 12 Atrix passengers, and four crew, also Atrix. Easy pickings.

So it was a little bit of a surprise when they cracked the door to the passenger module and one of the Atrix turned out to be somewhat genetically human.

It was holding a hot beverage in one hand and used the other to grip the first Thotari Contract Pirate around their scrawny neck, dragging them off their feet.

Then it used that individual to beat the others until they snapped their contract markers and sat their asses down.

Everyone knows the Thotari take contracts very seriously. Snapping the marker was as good as surrender: No Thotari with any self respect would work unpaid.

The Pirate Executive Officer, employed for her bulk and experience took personal umbrage regarding this whole mess and thundered onto the ship, with several large sharp weapons, and some very cool looking armour, determined to perpetrate terminal events to the Human's biology.

The Human took one look and threw it's drink in her face. Then gave her a vicious kicking while the bitter alkaloids in the toxic concoction caused the PEO to collapse with uncontrollable spasms.

According to the logs, the Human took time out and poured another cup of coffee, turned the heat up, glared at the rest of the Thotari until they snapped their contract markers rather than deal with any of that and walked onto the Pirate's ship.

At which point they called the Pirate's backer up, and spent a half hour explaining in horrifying detail what they would personally do to that individual, and how much worse it was going to be if they didn't stop this inane crap.

The Thotari picked up their PEO and hooked her up to their ship's medical bay, said 'no hard feelings it's just business' and left.

"How was your trip?" asked Dave The Human.

"Pretty quiet," said Phalanges Mitten, AKA Dave. "Glad to be back, though. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to take a decent nap on those haulers - And don't get me started on the Coffee!"

Kung Fu Panda Legends of Awesomeness - "The Most Dangerous Po"

Episode 3 Season 2 - 29 overall

Synopsis:

Invited to famed and retired General Tsin (voiced by R. Lee Ermey) Po joins the paranoid General on a hunt for Hundun the Rhino, who was lured there with the promise of a free pie. Although Po tries to warn currently innocent Hundun to run away, Hundun misinterprets the warnings, and Po defeats him after a short fight. The General then takes Hundun in a room full of famous villains, including Temutai, Scorpion, Fung, Gar-hi, Taotie, Bao, and Jing Mei, all of whom have been subjected to suspended animation. Realizing that the General has lost his mind, Po challenges the General, but blinded by a spray, he flees away. After a brief preach by his conscience, Po returns to the General's place, where he is taken as a prisoner and put in a sleeping chamber. But when the general releases the sleeping gas, the hoses, which have been switched by Po, starts pumping the wakening gas, unfreezing all villains. Defeated by the prisoners, Po sends the General to Chorh-Gom Prison.

Characters:

Monkey is bored without any action, not unlike Po tends to be. He also called out Tigress for lying about not being jealous. He did it a couple of times before in the show actually. It shows he knows her and isn't afraid of her. He already is bold enough with pranking people, what's a little bit of banter?

Shifu is only at the beginning and at the end where he mentions that Tsin is donating money to the Palace. I wonder if they're going to have financial problems now. The show's continuity is good so far.

Po immediately noticed that general is weird. He didn't say anything, because Tsin is one of his many idols, and the fact he gives them money. When it's revealed how far gone the general really is, Po tries to defuse the situation the best way he can. Later panda tries to talk some sense into him. After the fight is over and Tsin is in jail, Po is motivated to catch other bad guys.

Villains: General Tsin is fun. I wonder what turned him so paranoid. Isolation? I like how what he's doing is truly overboard. I hate when shows do the plot in which someone deals with the bad guys accordingly and the hero or anybody is like ''Isn't it too much?'' Here it's executed well. Turning people into statues is cruel.

-only fictional characters please! No real people. Characters who are live action/played by real people are fine as long as the character themself is a fictional concept, of course!

-I’ve decided that OCs will not be allowed either. I’m sorry, but this is mostly to avoid feelings getting hurt and because it would be unfair to pair smaller creators’ characters against ones from widely viewed media.

Visit strange new worlds... And ask, "What would a human do?"

Really, it was hard not to wail like a child who'd lost his tnkpt, thought Viska. It was how he felt right now and he suspected the big toothy thing outside wouldn't care much.

The only thing that was stopping him was that he was fairly sure it didn't know exactly where he was, and he didn't want to help out.

It'd been all fun at the start. He, Dr. Kraant, Ipsnig and the Human assigned to the survey to lift stuff and do Human things had gone out. The Human had helped him paint his scales a few days before and he was feeling very pretty and competent, and the Human had brought some of their human music that secretly Viska thought was pretty good, even if it needed to be a little higher pitched.

But then the big thing had attacked. Viska mentally named it Ergrig. It looked like an Ergrig. Something about the way it was drooling.

The human had grabbed Dr. Kraant, who had this theory that all predators had motion based vision, and flung him into the Sintral expedition car. Ipsnig had just leapt out the way and then there was dust and rocks spraying everywhere and the Ergrig was between him and the Sintral.

He'd dropped on all fours, and run, skidding around the vegetation, mud and rocks and finally he'd wedged himself in a small muddy gap, his gorgeous scale paints splattered and scratched, and of course the snazzing gwapruff thing had followed him.

And now he was stuck, and probably going to be eaten, and die. In that order.

He wished he was a Human. They always seemed to know how to deal with things.

He's asked their Human how they dealt with all the horrible creatures which all seemed to somehow have classified the human as not-food.

"I ask myself: What Saint Irwin would do?" They'd said, like it was funny. 

Viska wondered if this Saint Irwin would help out a poor muddy Tsin, or if you had to be Human to ask.

What he needed was a Saint Human to help Tsin out.

Or... maybe he should just ask: What would Human

And so, a few minutes later, the Ergrig, who'd been sure there was some little scaled food thing around here was very startled when a small male Tsin leapt up in front of it, scales on end like an angry pine cone, four arms splayed out, and gibbering in a manner that the Ergrig had never heard before.

It backed up, scrabbling, and the spiny thing lurched forward.

Like many predators, the Ergrig couldn't chance an injury. One of the big herbivores might have just kicked or gored Viska, but the Ergrig bolted.

"I can't believe that worked!" Said Viska.

"Neither can I." Said the human stepping out of liminal space between two boulders with a whump-gun. "I was trying to find you - Good thinking with the mud by the way - and I was prepared to give that big fella an arse full, with Betty here, but looks like you had it in hand!"

Vriska couldn't figure out how to respond for a moment - a little starstruck at getting praise from a Human. 

"Oh well. I just thought... what would a Human do." He said as they headed back to the Sintral expedition vehicle.

"Well it worked this time!" Said the Human, "But to be honest, I think most people - or animals - would back off if you leap out and screamed the lyrics to Phantom of the Opera at them..."

T’owal T’uesday #8

A few weeks ago I posted the beginning of my T’owal translation from the LCC10 relay. Here’s the whole thing!

E sonden do fyonte le hú mínol. Bmétho minol hu Lok’a há hyán hontsu pasyo mo.

Wís sí fdu hu Epe tyót sgen sonden. Há mó p’áth yi le e hliyi sos mo, tu mó só il sin swa tsin slod yi yu. E pwa tuf sin le e tyot sondem mo sál swa tsim p’ith Épe fén fan kseg kwet do sk’etut le. Kséd sk’etut le p’ith ts’ún swa xi Epe sí tuf le, a lál swa mó bós í. “Hlég xmen hné. Fút li hné sk’étut le su, ix wás li hné kúth ex hne sú, a fút hox li hné.”

P’of ts’ún Lók’a sk’étut le mo (uli then sk’etut su), tu sk’étut su a sk’étup p’ith úli k’a then sk’etup mo!”

T’ídu mén fén t’es mo Épe, a últs’a mó ts’óhef o bos nul fen tul thwi bmetho. Gwíd Épe sk’étup p’ith le Thíye a Lók’a, a túl Épe Thíye, a wás Épe Thíye T’ídu.

Below is the English translation, and some more info.

In a large forest of birch trees there was a kingdom. The king, who was named Lok’a, had a knife hidden in his crown.

In another part of the forest there lived a creature named Epe. It had long hair on its entire body, but walked like a person on two long legs. When people would travel through its part of the forest, Epe would create a magical illusion of a large, evil army. The magical army would take the travelers to Epe, and it would say to them, “You must choose. Either my soldiers kill you, or you give me all of your things and are not killed.”

Outside of the forest lived a man named T’idu. He hated and was disgusted by the king, but he desired the king’s sister, Thiye. He wanted to take her from her home in the forest and marry her. To accomplish this, he made a plan.

He had been told of the actions of Epe with the travelers in the forest, and he thought, “If I can make Thiye and Lok’a encounter Epe, Epe will take Thiye away from Lok’a. Then I’ll be able to trade with Epe, and have Thiye for myself. Lok’a might might bring his army (which is bigger than mine), but my army and the magical army combined will be bigger than his!”

T’idu told Epe his plan, and promised to trade with it after the capture of the king’s sister. Epe sent the magical army after Thiye and Lok’a, took Thiye, and gave her to T’idu.

But Lok’a ran home and gathered his soldiers. He and his followers surprised T’idu and his soldiers before they could leave the forest. The two real armies and their leaders fought until Lok’a used his crown’s hidden knife, and the battle ended. T’idu and his followers fled the forest, and Thiye returned to her home.

As I’ve previously mentioned I’ve changed the T’owal alphabet several times since writing this text. For whatever reason the first sentence of it has really stuck in my head so whenever I make a change to the alphabet I write that sentence out to see how it looks. However, I usually change one thing which has bugged me about the text since about two days after it was too late to fix it for the relay: there’s a superfluous plural marker (le). T’owal doesn’t typically redundantly mark the plural: if you say something about some birch trees, you would say fyonte le, but if you mentioned them again you would just say fyonte, since we already know it’s multiple trees. If you need to switch to referring to just one, you’d say fyonte wi, literally “one birch tree.” In writing this opening sentence I was thinking a little too literally of the English wording, “a forest of birch trees.” Even though fyonte le has not previously been said, it’s obvious that there’s going to be more than one tree in the forest.

Tense is similarly not marked on every verb. I tend to use one tense marker in a T’owal text for a given section, applying it to the first verb and then letting that tense be implied for the rest (until another tense marker potentially changes it). This text is meant to have a slightly out-of-time feeling, so it doesn’t even start with a tense marker at all—the first one doesn’t appear until the fourth paragraph. When they are used, it’s either in reference to the reference time frame of the story (using the past tense marker we for “He had been told”), or within the dialogue of the characters.

The last thing I want to talk about is the character names. In the text I received there were five names, including one for the kingdom. Since that one was used only once, I decided to omit it. In earlier stages of the relay most people borrowed the proper nouns from the previous language, fitting them to the sounds of their own conlang. Since the language that preceded mine was UNLWS, which has no spoken component, the names that had been passed along were removed and replace with UNLWS-style names, which take the form of equilateral triangles with something inside that represents the person in some way (usually one or more UNLWS glyphs that relate to them). Here are the four characters’ names as they appeared in UNLWS:

These are related to the UNLWS glyphs for (from left to right) movement along a surface, a tool, shiny, and a combination of shiny and snake. Since there isn’t (yet?) a way to form “native” T’owal names, I didn’t really have a way to make names from the equivalent T’owal words. So instead I went based on the resemblance of parts of the glyphs to certain T’owal letters. In the third name, for example, one part is very reminiscent of the T’owal letter t’, and the whole thing is very angular so I used mostly angular letters, and ended up with the name T’idu. The curve in the second name was somewhat like the letter e, and a little like p as well, so that became Epe. Continuing along those lines, I ended up with these four names:

Of course, the changes in the T’owal alphabet have completley erased most of those letter resemblances since then! Oh well. Here’s how the four names look in the current alphabet:
