Always Anti-fascist!

I didn't know that. I never met her then. Fine. I'm a total idiot.

Don't feel bad erika, that was my (admittidly possibly wrong) impression as well. The last time I remember seeing her post was some other political dust-up.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

WX Header stors.

Man, we were obsessive about those puppies. I did bloody fist!Fred, headless!Lorne, maybe even William to Spike. That's a lotta pixellation.

Because they had been completely separate, you mean?

If you mean the languages, yes. For the emigrants, their new language (English) continued to evolve over time, in ways it would be hard for them to strip away in recalling the English they originally learned. But their childhood language was unaffected, in a kind of long term storage (Icebox)because it wasn't in use.

My grandfather was 20 when he left Sweden and 84 the first time he returned. Children liked to hear him talk becasue it was like watching the Swedish version of a victorian costume drama. He pointed out when he returned home tha, ironically, he and his childhood friends now "speak the same English but a different Swedish."

Matt had a fairly famous one as well of Lindsey and Angel, right?
