9/12/98 10:00:22 PM Opening "Hnoiyika 9/12/98" Ael tVecj: Jolan tru. ::glances at Ilia:: Ael tVecj: ::wincing:: Mercura A: KYele: ::turns to Eton:: Come on... if you're gonna use the "grammarre of olde", do it right. CylisCohen: KYele: "What evil demon dost vex thou countenance?" ;) EtonTrSaal: I only felt like using it halfway...sorry... Ael tVecj: what hath vexed thee? Mercura A: isn't it daemon? EtonTrSaal: Wouldn't it be "thine countenance"? KYele: Wait... KYele: No, thy. Ael tVecj: thine is plural. KYele: ::nods:: Mercura A: thine is possessive KYele: Like yours. EtonTrSaal: And "vex" is still an english word, just not in use much. Ilia tReki: ::listens, intrigued:: Ilia tReki: Jolan tru, Ato. :) KYele: Jolan Tru, Ato! EtonTrSaal: I was told that "you" and "your" were the plurals. AtotrLycus: JT, all! EtonTrSaal: JT Aro. AtotrLycus: BRB Mercura A: err..thine is possesive pronoun.. Ilia tReki: But thou, etc, is supposed to be more formal.. you and your and ye and yer and stuff is the KYele: Uhh... no, "you" is singular, "your" is sungular possessive. Ilia tReki: .. peasant stuff... isn't it..? KYele: ::nods to Ilia:: Ilia tReki: ::doesn't know much about Shakespearean English:::) CylisCohen: I'll stick with y'all. Ael tVecj: ::used to know, when she read Piers Anthony:: Ilia tReki: ::nods to Tylus:: EtonTrSaal: that'd make sense, because old english is close to germanic... AtotrLycus: BAK Mercura A: Eirl tKaen: EtonTrSaal: and "du" and "dine" (spelling?) are singular. AtotrLycus: ::has no clue who Pie Tony is:: KYele: ::once had the English currency system figured out, while reading some British book:: EtonTrSaal: <::reads PA, was sure he said "you" was plural"::> KYele: ::now it totally escapes him:: Ael tVecj: ya'll is the correct plural, if you're comparing English to Romantic languages. KYele: KYele: ::nods:: Ael tVecj: you is 2nd person singular and plural. Mercura A: Ael tVecj: AtotrLycus: Just about to say that, Ael. KYele: For example, vosotros and ustedes are 2nd person plural, in Spanish. KYele: Informal and formal, respectively. Ael tVecj: But we have no equivalents in English, except "you all" KYele: Exactly. Eirl tKaen: ::prefers "vous". french. easy:: CylisCohen: <---Taking Lingustics this semester. 1st thing you learn...most the formal rules are useless KYele: Or in Brooklyn, "youse". Ilia tReki: ::wonders why the pre-sim discussions aren't like this on Freedom....;):: AtotrLycus: But second person plural in French is only Vous. Mercura A: EtonTrSaal: I've been called "ya'll" when I'm the only one being spoken to though... AtotrLycus: Je deteste la francais. KYele: <::shakes his head:: Ustedes is the formal.> Eirl tKaen: J'adore la francais. EtonTrSaal: So "ya'll" can be singular also. KYele: KYele: <::glances up at the grammar of his previous sentence::> Eirl tKaen: J'ai deux ans de la francai. ::unsure of grammar:: AtotrLycus: Vous= Formal 2nd person sing, 2 person plural formal/informal KYele: Eirl tKaen: francai=francais Ilia tReki: ::prefers "anata".. it's everything and anything you want it to be:: AtotrLycus: That's right, Eirl tKaen: I like anata Eirl tKaen: very nice EtonTrSaal: ::annoyed that "sie" means formal "you" and "she" both in Deutch, with only context to... Ael tVecj: We ready? AtotrLycus: What's it meen? EtonTrSaal: ...differentiate:: Ilia tReki: "You" AtotrLycus: Ananta, that is. Eirl tKaen: anata? you KYele: I'm ready. EtonTrSaal: ::spelled Deutsch wrong there:: AtotrLycus: I know! I got a good one! Eirl tKaen: it's japanese EtonTrSaal: ::no wait...gives up:: AtotrLycus: The best one is... "YOU!" Eirl tKaen: am I corect that anatatashi is a plural? KYele: Yeah! ::agrees with Ato:: Ilia tReki: tachi, yeah. :) Eirl tKaen: oops Eirl tKaen: only heard it Eirl tKaen: and I hear poorly Ilia tReki: ::nods:: Close enough, for pronunciation's sake. ;) AtotrLycus: And I ain't talking about English, I mean good ol' American English. AtotrLycus: Though, Olde English is cool.\ KYele: Ahem... I'm ready. KYele: ::glances at the chrono:: Ilia tReki: ::sits quietly behind her plant:: Mercura A: Mercura A: ::ready:: AtotrLycus: Ael tVecj: Vaed'rae! Ilia tReki: ::hrrau vaed'rae:: KYele: ::hrrau:: AtotrLycus: ::arrogant grin:: Mercura A: Mercura A: ::hrrau vaed'rae:: EtonTrSaal: :hrrau vaed'rae:: KYele: ::hrrau again:: AtotrLycus: Eirl tKaen: ::hrrau vae'drae:: Mercura A: Ael tVecj: AtotrLycus: > EtonTrSaal: Ael tVecj: ::glares at all of them:: Ael tVecj: >>>>>>>>>>Begin Sim<<<<<<< Ael tVecj: >>>>>>>>>>Begin Sim<<<<<<< Ael tVecj: >>>>>>>>>>Begin Sim<<<<<<< EtonTrSaal: AtotrLycus: Eirl tKaen: Ael tVecj: Kari Sum: ::::meeps::: Ilia tReki: ::sits quietly, tapping away at a console, trying not to think about that bizarre warp, lest Ilia tReki: ::..her head explode:: AtotrLycus: Ael tVecj: I got a message from the Ra'kolh...something about us babbling in Klingon... Ael tVecj: So they're doubling our patrols. EtonTrSaal: ::also at his console in Eng, lost in thought:: Ilia tReki: Mercura A: ::at helm:: CylisCohen: ::mopping a floor somewhere:: KYele: ::sighs:: In another situation, it would be funny, really...

I almost wish something would happen.

Ael tVecj: If it were too quiet, the universe would come to a halt. Ilia tReki: ::looks at the console:: Ilia tReki: ::opens a little message window to Ato:: "Um.. what'cha doing..?" AtotrLycus: ::hacking away:: We couldn't have that happen, could we? CylisCohen: :::"ZAP"::: AH! ::tosses it back onto shelf:: KYele: ::nods:: Ael tVecj: +Eirl+ Schedule some anti-terrorist sims for Tylus and Eton... KYele: It seems like the few hours we've been back has been going on longer than the hours... days KYele: we were in the past. Ael tVecj: +Eirl+ Engineers tend to be wimps.

Eirl tKaen: +ennarian+ ie... ::trying not to laugh:: Ael tVecj: ::stretches::I'd almost rather be at Heb's trial. EtonTrSaal: Ael tVecj: Ilia tReki: "Indeed.. well.. cut it out for this shift, eh?" AtotrLycus: ::narrows his eyes, getting closer to the PW:: Ael tVecj: ::watches the back of C'eryl's head::Or on shoreleave... EtonTrSaal: Eirl tKaen: ::sends messages to them telling a time, and procedes to program the simulations:: AtotrLycus: Ael tVecj: ::glances at K'Yele::The Ra'kolh thinks we're arrogant, over-glorified Ael tVecj: patrolers. How should we play that? Mercura A: ::nods in agreement with the shoreleave idea:: KYele: Well, I should think it would be impossible... Ilia tReki: +Ael+ Excuse me, rekkhai.. KYele: Arrogant patrollers is almost a contradiction in terms. Ael tVecj: So they want to put us in our place... Ael tVecj: +Ilia+ Ie, Daise? AtotrLycus: ::speaks up:: What 'place'? Ilia tReki: +Ael+ Just a suggestion..: you may want to change your passwords sometime soon. EtonTrSaal: Eirl tKaen: <::very curious::> Eirl tKaen: ::thinking about what would be appropriate to torment the engineers with:: EtonTrSaal: ::busy reading a book, ignoring the world about him:: Ilia tReki: ::slides back to her main station and plays p'Ong quietly:: KYele: Mercura A: ::thinking about how nice a new desk would look in her quarters:: AtotrLycus: ::hacks into her PW, and...:: Ilia tReki: EtonTrSaal: ::absently adjusts a necklace he's wearing under his uniform shirt, shuts his book with a...

Ael tVecj: ::begins counting stars:: Mercura A: ::looks up:: EtonTrSaal: :looks at her, surprised that she noticed him:: Oh, nothing really... Ael tVecj: +Ato+ Find out how many stars are out there.

Far from it. AtotrLycus: That did not work... EtonTrSaal: It's all growing together now, you see. Ilia tReki: ::looks over her shoulder at him:: Say what? AtotrLycus: ACTION: Alarms shut off. Eirl tKaen: +eng+ did you set off that alarm that told me someone was messing with the computer? AtotrLycus: ::glares at Ilia:: What? What do you want? EtonTrSaal: It's all growing together now. All of it. It's starting to realise what it is. Ilia tReki: +Eirl+ Na, Eirl.. it was an automatic defense mechanism.. Ilia tReki: <::in eng..::;)> Eirl tKaen: +Ilia+ against what?

KYele: Mercura A: Ilia tReki: ::smiles a little nervously:: CylisCohen: Reporting as ordered. AtotrLycus: ::chuckles:: Bored? Of me? Never. Ael tVecj: ::glances at Eirl::What is this problem with the alarm system? EtonTrSaal: Oh, not a revilation, just deduction. Mercura A: EtonTrSaal: Nothing is ever "revaled".

KYele: ::returns to the Hwaveyiir:: Eirl tKaen: looks like someone's hacked your pasword Ael tVecj: 'If thy hand offends me, cut it off.

Mercura A: ::turns and looks at Ael, raises eyebrow:: Ael tVecj: ::smiles at Eirl:: Who did? EtonTrSaal: But we're both part of "everytnihg", so realiseing something about the universe is really .. EtonTrSaal: ...looking into yourself. Ael tVecj: ::nods to K'Yele::Could you handle this? I must speak to Tylus. Eirl tKaen: ::punches some buttons:: someone at that consul ::points to Ato's:: AtotrLycus: ::folds his arms:: Who?! Who else? KYele: ::nods:: I think so. CylisCohen: ::gulp:: Ael tVecj: ::flipping the dagger so that she holds the blade:: EtonTrSaal: It makes sense, I just can't say it right. I will, eventually. KYele: ::takes the dagger and assumes Ael's position:: Ael tVecj: ::offers the hilt to Ato:: Ilia tReki: ::nods slowly:: I see.. AtotrLycus: Me, of course! Who else is smart enough here... Ael tVecj: : Ael tVecj: AtotrLycus: ::looks at the dagger:: Ael tVecj: ::walks to Tylus and grimaces up at him:: Ael tVecj: ::taps her armrest::Can you build that?

Ael tVecj: CylisCohen: ::groans inwardly...wishing if she was gonna kill him, would have done it Before having to AtotrLycus: ::small smile:: Of course it was me. You think someone else could do that? CylisCohen: mop those floors:: KYele: Screwing around with the passwords. You messed up my alarm. Ilia tReki: ::puts a hand to her chest and looks taken aback:: Me? You? What? Never! EtonTrSaal: ::concerned:: What did I say? Ael tVecj: ::licks her lips and waits for Tylus's response:: KYele: Giving me about four siurena of sleep tonight. EtonTrSaal: Did I offend you? CylisCohen: :::looks it over:: Ummm. Ilia tReki: Not to my knowledge.. EtonTrSaal: I was just spouting. I've been doing a lot of reading and thinking. CylisCohen: Maybe..... AtotrLycus: ::shrugs:: Well, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to set off the alarms. Ilia tReki: ::nods:: Bizarre space-time warps'll do that.. KYele: No, no. EtonTrSaal: I'm sorry, I probably sound odd to you. Noting ever seems to come out right. Ael tVecj: There is no maybe. There is yes, and no. KYele: I mean the alarm. On my chrono. KYele: That gets me up in the morning. Ael tVecj: Neither response will bring harm to you. Eirl tKaen: ::programming that simulation, still, and watchign out ;of the corner of her eye:: AtotrLycus: Huh? CylisCohen: Unless it blows up. EtonTrSaal: Oh, it's not that. Everywhen is not, depending on your viewpoint. Ilia tReki: Na, na.. I understand what you're saying.. I just don't.. quite understand that philosophy. Ael tVecj: AtotrLycus: That shouldn't have happened... EtonTrSaal: AtotrLycus: Ael tVecj: <::chuckles::> CylisCohen: ::sinks a little:: Umm, Ie, it can be built. KYele: You're very right... ::advances more:: EtonTrSaal: Well, you may not, or I may have conveyed it poorly. Ilia tReki: ::stares at him, face twisted in an expression of ..
