I'm s.a. in real life and online.
Really? So your friends call you ess ay? That's pretty cool.
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Yup. Actually, my best friends love it because there's this thirty second confusion where they're trying to figure out if my name is the Spanish word for friend (ese), a paper (essay), or they just do that "Wha-huh?" face. That's the best one.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
"ese" is Spanish for "friend"? I thought it was Spanish for "that".
I go by ita, serenada (my capoeira name), and capoeira_girl. So anyone that knows me can tell it's me. I've also started going by rank_tyro. Can't quite explain that one. Wait, no, then there's velvet and the derivatives.
I'm not as straightforward as I'd hoped.
I have been told that I speak French like a Swiss goatherder. Also that I have the cutest little Parisian accent. What can you do?

Hm. All I know is: "Hey! Ese!" Slang?

If I only had a brain...
Slang. "Hey, you there!", more or less.
"Friend" is "amiga" or "amigo".

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
ita is correct.
Not that I remember most of my Spanish anymore (Puerto Rican slang, I still have some memory of..). But I did once try to read Garcia Marquez in it. Which broke me.

Just saw my first Firefly fic, on Glass_Onion. Not bad. Of course it would mean more if I'd seen the whole episode. Heh.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
I'm Holli most places, but I use Meleh for fic and I've started using Micheleh when I want extra anonymity.
