made-up languages; Sunday Drabbleventures, NOW WITH HARDCORE DRABBLEOSITY!
Probably this is ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
insight2's fault, but while I was brushing my teeth last night it occurred to me that it would be interesting (one word for it) to develop an angelic language, now that Skanr has been my practice run for language construction. What I've been thinking of is a language that is Romance-like in the sense that angels use different forms of the copulative (to be) for the created world and the divine, to express the distinction they'd probably make between essence versus state. Or would they just see the entire world as a collection of things in a state of being or becoming or changing? And how would the near-infinite think about the bounded and contained, anyway? *ponders these things*
In similar SPN news, I wrote one more drabble, In terra aliena (In a Strange Land) for the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
deancastiel drabble challenge.
SUNDAY DRABBLEVENTURES
By executive order, I have decided that on a semiregular basis (maybe every other Sunday, or however often I feel like it), I will contribute to weekend sloth and work avoidance by writing drabbles on request. When requests are open, I will note which fandoms I'm writing in; all you need to do is name your fandom, character/pairing, and prompt, and I will write 100 words of something. This post will be the prompt and response post, for purposes of consolidation.
.drabble prompts: Leave me a fandom/character/pairing and a prompt (SGA, SPN, Bones, and I guess I will take Merlin*) and I will see what I can do.
4.26 DRABBLEVENTURES NOW OPEN
In unrelated news, Iron & Wine's The Shepherd's Dog is completely awesome and I have been listening to it obsessively.
* = I like Morgana a lot and wish something heavy would land on Uther. And I like how Arthur is kind of a jerk, but basically a decent guy. Also, I am deeply amused and, dare I say it, somewhat gratified, by the fact that the incantation languages involve Old English. A lot of this is because the Anglo-Saxons really did not like teh magics.
*le sigh* Sunday is over, alas! Drabbles closed for now.

arthur/merlin: arthur is kind of a jerk *g*
In which 'prat' is repeated many times
"Shut up," Arthur growls, not that it worked the first time. "S'just a bruise."
Merlin looms over him, smelling like Gaius's ointment. "If you hadn't been a prat and told that kid he looked like the wrong end of a dog, this wouldn't have happened."
"He was in my way, and I'm ordering you to be quiet."
"Prat," Merlin sing-songs, disrespectful hugely-eared bastard. "Prat, prat, prat."
Arthur scowls, but tries not to be too pratlike as Merlin changes the compress. He thinks he succeeds.
