about that "I'm not from the us" ask set
or whatever it was written there
all
every
most is a very interesting question and I need answers because knowledge = fun
Ahhh... This is going to be long...
1. favourite place in your country?
India is a big country, okay, I haven't been to many places, but I liked kerala when I went there one time.
2. do you prefer spending your holidays in your country or travel abroad?
In my country, in my state, in my house. I don't like traveling.
3. does your country have access to sea?
Yeah :)
4. favourite dish specific for your country?
Creul. How dare you make me choose?
5. favourite song in your native language?
Ohhh,,,, this is hard. I don't know many songs like at all
ஆனந்த யாழை (aanandha yaazhai)
சின்ன சின்ன ஆசை (chinna chinna aasai)
உனக்கு என்ன வேணும் சொல்லு (unakku enna venum sollu)
Are they all very popular songs? Yes, as I said I don't know many songs. (How hell did I become an instrumentalist!?)
6. most hated song in your native language?
I don't think I hate any songs, like in general..
7. three words from your native language that you like the most?
Who has favorite words?! I like them all.
8. do you get confused with other nationalities? if so, which ones and by whom?
I am, unfortunately pale as fuck, so some people think I'm white (oh the horrors) and other times they think I'm from andhra side, because again pale as hell lol
9. which of your neighbouring countries would you like to visit most/know best?
We somehow have some level of beef with most of our neighbours,.,. Probably sri lanka, I know a decent amount about it because shared history, and it would be the easiest to travel to
10. most enjoyable swear word in your native language?
No "swear words" because language is old and we have forgotten most of them :(
11. favourite native writer/poet?
Kalki Krishnamurthy, is this a basic answer? Yes. But, I am not a book person, okay, books are scary and I haven't read many in my lifetime. I'm going based on what my mom said lol.
12. what do you think about English translations of your favourite native prose/poem?
No particular feelings about it :/
13. does your country (or family) have any specific superstitions or traditions that might seem strange to outsiders?
Oh, so many, but like most young people don't follow it that much. It's just something old people nag about.
14. do you enjoy your country’s cinema and/or TV?
I don't watch many movies or TV shows in general, so I don't have any strong feelings towards it.
15. a saying, joke, or hermetic meme that only people from your country will get?
Again, big country, varied languages. But let me think of something I can actually translate...
We call people who don't think before they speak cashew nuts (முந்திரிக்கொட்ட (Mundhiri Kotta)) because of how the the cashew nut protrudes out of the cashew fruit.
I chose a random one, there are many more, Tamil is a language built on metaphors lol
16. which stereotype about your country you hate the most and which one you somewhat agree with?
Most hated: THE GOD DAMN INDIAN ACCENT. Like 1) it originates from the welsh accent 2)it mostly comes from north Indian diasporas 3) NORTH INDIANS ALSO DON'T HAVE THAT ACCENT.
THERE ARE 22 DIFFERENT OFFICIAL LANGUAGES AND HUNDREDS OF UNOFFICIAL ONES, HOW THE HELL IS THERE SUPPOSED TO BE AN ALL ENCOMPASSING "INDIAN ACCENT"
Also, a million others, but we don't have time for that.
Agree with: we like our spices yes :}
17. are you interested in your country’s history?
YES YES YES. 100% YES. I am a history nerd about it. I have so much history trivia. Pls someone ask me about it.
18. do you speak with a dialect of your native language?
I don't know, there are dialects I think, but I don't know much about them or even which one I speak lol.
19. do you like your country’s flag and/or emblem? what about the national anthem?
It's alright, I don't have strong feelings about it .
20. which sport is The Sport in your country?
Cricket. Enough said.
21. if you could send two things from your country into space, what would they be?
Ahhh, I don't know. Our food, maybe? Astronauts need food, right?
22. what makes you proud about your country? what makes you ashamed?
People. For both. I will not elaborate ^-^
23. which alcoholic beverage is the favoured one in your country?
I don't drink alcohol. So, I don't know. Where I live, it's also kinda taboo to drink alcohol :(
24. what other nation is joked about most often in your country?
Brits and Americans, again enough said
25. would you like to come from another place, be born in another country?
No, I like it here.
26. does your nationality get portrayed in Hollywood/American media? what do you think about the portrayal?
Don't really care.
27. favourite national celebrity?
I don't know any pop culture, national or international. So, can't say :/
28. does your country have a lot of lakes, mountains, rivers? do you have favourites?
Yeah all three and lots of them, we are big as I said before. We are supposed have favourites?

I also thought of an angst scenario ...
not canon (maybe) because MF sans as his dad is now a canon au /hj
"I Bet on Losing Dogs" by mitski..
Sans is crying out to his baby as he's frantically rushing to the best doctor money can buy because someone tried to shoot up the house..
He's driving as fast as he can with his baby in his arms
he knew he shouldn't have gotten so close to someone so vulnerable
He knew he shouldn't have left Dream unattended for even thirty minutes
His baby should have been safe
why did he let Dream play for longer ?
He should have sent him to bed
His sweet son had a gaping hole right through his skull
He had to get to Alphy's faster
.
inhaling.
Exhaling.
Glue. I say this. With nothing but love and respect. Fuck you. Why. Why would you DO THIS TO MEEEE NOOOOOOOO this is NOT canon i am holding you down, at gunpoint, and away from your skechbooks its NOT. CANON.
AND THEN YOU HAVE TO THROW MITSKI IN THERE????? GOD. FUCK YOUU

She gripped Eric by the shoulder and shook him.
Eric startled awake, his eyes struggling to find a focal point.
“Eric, look at me, look at me” said Ariel.
His eyes met hers, but they were dark and empty.
He started to doze off, but was again shaken awake by Ariel.
“Stay awake, okay?” she begged.
She pressed down on his wound, hoping that reducing the blood still gushing from it would bring him back to consciousness.
He whimpered and a little bit of blood fell from his lips.
“It’s so cold” he said, shivering.
“Yeah, but you got to hold on”
“I can’t, Ariel.”
“Eric, please.”
“It’s too late.”
“Don’t talk like that, we’re going to save you.”
“I-I love you, my li-li-little mermaid.”
The shivering intensified and then Eric’s breathing ceased, his eyes glossed over and he lay still.
“No, no, no, no.”
Ariel rested her head on his chest, anxiously listening for a heartbeat but there was nothing.
“Please don’t die, I need you, I love you” she wept.
She repositioned herself so that he was lying partly in her lap and she was cradling him.
She ran her fingers along his jawline and planted a kiss on his cold lips.
Through sobs, she began to sing to him as she did when she rescued him all that time ago, “what would I give to live where you are? What would I pay to stay here beside you? What would I do to see you smiling at me?”
She heard yelling in the distance, but continued to sing her siren song to her love.
“Where would we walk? Where would we run? If we could stay all day in the sun?”
Even in death, Eric was still the most beautiful human Ariel had ever laid her eyes on.
“Just you and me, and I could be part of your world.”
She hugged Eric tighter and cried and cried until she thought she couldn’t cry anymore.
She only stopped when she felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up.
“He’s gone, Grimsby” she said.
ANON I WILL BE SUING YOU FOR EMOTIONAL DAMAGES OVER THIS DAMN FIC
