Thank you for the translation, Megan!
Shannon's French isn't that good, she's just winging the translation
Well, she was forced into trying to translate. She said her French wasn't any good.
Oh lord, I can't believe I'm defending SnickerBitch.
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I like the idea of only the character himself/herself knowing his/her own backstory and the rest of the cast being in the dark.
That's awesome. Now I want to go interrogate the other cast members to see what they know. Without, you know, bamboo or anything.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, yeah, and the translation is great. I love that there's so much else there that needs explored. It's way more interesting than, "I'm all alone." Wonder if Shannon just botched it, or why she would deliberately misinterpret, even after being pushed into translating?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Just saw a promo for Letterman that said Evangeline Lilly will be on tonight.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
If she did actually know what the transmission was saying, she likely would've told them it said "I'm alone" instead of the more detailed acutal translation because she wanted to stay on the beach for rescue-which at the time she was sure was imminent. "I'm going to try to make it to the black rock" and "Whassisface has the keys" turns the transmission into a mystery that might have to be solved taking the doctor, and the guy with the tech skills away. Being selfish, she probably wouldn't have wanted them wasting their time on anything but getting her off the island.

Oh and she says that something is going to happen that is spoilery in a specific and in a non-specific sort of way, by which I mean she doesn't say which character or characters will be affected by what she said.
