[Ryotarou appears on the Plane, just standing there for a moment in extreme confusion. Deneb is trying to talk to him in his head... but Ryotarou has no idea what he's saying. For now, Ryotarou's defaulted to Fa'Dielian:]

What's going on...!?

{Unfortunately, Diva got lame languages that have no translators. SAD. Anyways, she is babbling on sourly in Fa’Dielian, and wearing a lovely party dress}

Ne, honestly! Another thing gone wrong! Terrible, terrible, terrible!

Oh, I was in the middle of talking to such a lovely young man too, then all of the sudden this foul sounding language comes out?! I am growing tired of all this nonsense, and I assume it is the Twins fault. Really, could you have picked a better time? I might have gotten someone good to sleep with tonight~ { :'( }

{She places her hands on her hips before she sighs and starts to go over to the bar} I might as well drink a little while I'm here. This party has terrible drinks. It's all so cheap. And unless it's just my luck, I imagine that other people are having problems too.

[Rose is sitting in the middle of the plane, reading (According to Kisha, she wears reading glasses now so I can use this icon) and eating pie straight out of the pie tin. And occasionally mumbling things in JAPANESE. About pie. And pie being good.]

...definitely not the weirdest thing that's happened I think, but it's still weird. Oh, well. It'll be fun, talking to people like this. More interesting than looking at timelines and blueprints all day, anyway.

All right. [She's speaking Japanese and doesn't look very happy about it.] Whose joke is this? I would say Kora's but I'll be bound if she has this sort of power.

Well? The joke's old enough already. Whoever's done it, undo it now. And set Rosto and the rest to rights as well. This isn't even proper Yamani!

[Ikki is annoyed, but for now, he's willing to swallow it and instead try to sort out who speaks what of his acquaintances. He starts in Tibetan.]

Hey, does anyone know what's going on yet? Talked to the Twins or anything? Amaterasu is making some kind of language compatibility list, and until we know what the hell is going on, she'd be best to talk to.

[He pauses, then looks around and repeats the same thing in Gallifreyan, before muttering to himself in it.]

Goddamn, this is so annoying. Kazu thinks I've lost it, but he seems to get what I'm saying, even though I sound like the star of some crappy kung fu movie.
 
 
26 July 2008 @ 02:32 am
[Susan! Speaking Greek and looking very upset.]

What in the world is going on?! Everyone I know is either speaking... What is this, is this Greek? Or some gibberish language that I--it's like nothing I've ever heard and...! I used to speak Ukrainian. I used to be fluent in Ukranian. Now I can't remember a word of it at all.

[Here is Ammy! She appears with several wooden posts, upon which have been pinned several scrolls of washi paper (sort of like old school rice paper). The scrolls are all in a row, and have intricate and detailed pictures on them. The pictures, read in order, make a sort of story.]

[The first picture shows a star-studded sky and floor, where Ammy is standing, along with people who look like Diva, Mu, Ryotarou, Angela and Ten. They're all just sort of standing, talking amongst themselves.]

[The second picture shows two mischievous-looking figures who are obviously the Twins, who are waving their hands at the unsuspecting group of Plane-dwellers. Little motes of what look like letters (in German) are floating toward the group.

[The third picture shows the group of Plane dwellers looking surprised and confused. There are little letters near each person, but they don't spell out anything comprehensible.]

[The fourth picture shows the group looking thoughtful, as Angela and Ten find out that their combination of letters seem to match up, that Diva matches Ammy, that Ryotarou also matches Ammy but not Diva, and so on and so forth.]

[The fifth and final picture shows each person doing a task--Mu seems to be making a list, Ten seems to be rounding up people (including people that look like the Masters, Jackie and Misaki), Ryotarou is talking to Ammy, and Ammy seems to be translating to Diva, who is nodding thoughtfully and jotting something down.]

[Ammy sits patiently by the posts, tail curled around her paws, and waits for someone to come by. She'll only carry on conversations with people who speak Cat or German--otherwise it's Pictionary time!]

[seated in an ornate armchair, speaking in fluent, articulate, and rather pleasant-to-the-ears Gallifreyan]

It's actually a bit disgusting, hearing you lot speak Gallifreyan so primitively. Like chanting off - no, that metaphor's incomprehensible without a background in high mathematics. Fine. Like writing Calculus and finding everyone else doing basic algebra.

[then he changes to Russian - less articulate, of course, but he's comfortable with the language]

This one, though, this one's a bit ironic. Look at me, the Master, the deathless, blathering on in Russian. Haven't been in ages, should probably go back and put a few more legends into the locals.

[sips from his wine, and slips back into Gallifreyan]

At least the people of the city still understand me.

[guess who got stuck with Cat and Japanese? if you guessed Gene Hunt, he'll happily punch you in the face. that being said, have some Japanese]

If I hear one more bloody person meow, I'm gonna tape your mouths shut and douse you in water, you right bastards.

[looking around himself warily, speaking in Common] ...Where did she go? [staring into the distance and trying not to look down] Hello? Can anyone hear me?

The Astral Plane, she said...it sounds like one of Charles' experiments. If he called this place here, I'm going to have words with him. He's not supposed to be looking for other dimensions anymore, not after the last incident.

[So uhm... Mu looks pretty put-off by something. He keeps opening his mouth to speak, but all that comes out is a long, loud yowl, like a cat that hasn't been fed. Shortly after beginning, it abruptly cuts out as he slams his mouth shut again.

Guess who doesn't realize he can speak German yet 8D?]

{Balalaika has, actually, been on the plane for a little bit now. Maybe because everyone was more preoccupied with the fact they can't speak their normal languages, but she also didn't make a grand entrance. In fact, it was more like she thought this was some weird trip and wandered over to the bar to ride it out with the great view and alcohol. Perfect.

But goddamnit, this place is too loud and...not going away to be an acid trip. So she lights a cigar and turns away from the bar with her glass of brandy, speaking in English first.}


You damn idiots run around like a chicken with its head cut off. Is this normal? Because the next person that runs around yowling like a cat is going to be sporting a new asshole right in between their eyes. If I'm tripping all the way to heaven, I'd like to enjoy the view in peace.

{Then Russian, because she thought she caught a few snippets of that being spoken} What a damn fucking place to end up, though. Thought it was a blessing with free alcohol, but then there are people running around speaking languages I've never even heard of. You'd think I stumbled into heaven's crossroads or some bullshit like that with a view like this, but obviously God is just a sick bastard and this is Hell.

{Muttering in English, taking a sip of her drink} Where's Rock when I need him? At least that boy could speak Japanese.

[Jack's expression is torn between annoyance and amusement as he speaks Gallifreyan] I'd probably find this less amusing if I was one of the unlucky ones who got stuck meowing. Instead I get Gallifreyan and [Speaking Tibetan now], though he stumbles the first few words] And Tibe...Tibetan.

So far I've heard German, Japanese, French, Tibetan, Gallifreyan, 'Cat'....am I missing anything?

[After all these so exciting languages, have some sexy French people, from a very annoyed Juliet!]

One would think there will be silence when noone can understand each other, but the noise is much worse than usual.
I wonder if this is a joke, or...

[thinks, oh... he can speak... (Italian) some other spiffy language too? What a bliss. :| So he tries it.]

A joke or something else~? Ah, who knows~!


[back to French, would never admit it but he likes it... he thinks it pwns all the other languages...]

An actor doesn't need words anyway~~
I hope it's not permanent though...

[Romeo is sitting on the ground, doing a rather good impression of Hamlet as you can simply see the WOE on his face. His hands are on his ears, covering them because he doesn't want to believe what he has been hearing. Then he makes the mistake to try again, just one more time, hoping the nightmare is over. He lowers his hands and opens his mouth.]

Mew?

[He gasps and quickly slaps his hands in front of his mouth. He even starts to rock back and forth. Why yes, he looks like he's about to cry.]

[this is not a happy Donna. Right now she's speaking French. It probably sounds very rough and angry. The flailing hand gestures so aren't helping]

French. That's what I'm speaking, isn't it? French?! I haven't taken French since...since...point is! I don't know any French and I'm speaking French and someone bloody well explain what's happening to me right now!

[it is worth noting that the Master is quite angry. in fact, if he were a cat, the fur on his back would be raised, and he would have laid his ears back. as this isn't the case, he simply looks rather annoyed

and in a tone that is much more a low growl than anything else, he speaks... in cat, which is so horribly fitting, seeing as he already growls, hisses, and purrs from time to time]


There is no proper word to describe just how much I hate this place.


((OOC: Note! The Master's cat isn't housecat variety. His is big cat, most likely cheetah because I'm mean. It's still the same words to him, just different. Sort of like the difference between American English and British English, or how people in the southern states talk compared to people in the northern ones.))

[so! Suiseiseki got stuck with German, which is A-OK because she all ready knew it. what isn't A-OK is that German does not have 'desu.' bad form I say, bad form! ergo, you all now get a cute little Doll who ends everything with 'ist' because I say so. (and yes, I know it makes no grammatical sense. neither does 'desu' in this instance. hush.) go go German~]

This is very strange, ist. The little human was speaking German! Everyone was, actually. But he doesn't know German, ist. But I can't speak Japanese anymore, either! [frowns] This isn't the Alice Game, is it? Father didn't do this, did he, ist?

{Such a small inconvenience could never bother Yuuko. In fact, as the true businesswoman she is, she's come up with a solution. She's sitting on the back porch of her shop (not that 'back' is really applicable here) with a grin on her face, and she announces for everyone to hear. And because Yuuko is Ms. Fashionable and I must announce it each time, today she is wearing this ensemble.}

Bonjour des résidants du Plane Astral~ Nous avons un dérangement si étrange ici que j'ai pensé que je pourrais offrir une solution. Ainsi, pour tout le vous, je prends ces garnitures spéciales qui vous aideront à ne pas être perdu et vous pouvez éviter les problemes de traduction! Ah, mais j'ai seulement deux davantage, ainsi les deux premiers à payer obtenez ces derniers.

{Which she promptly writes on what looks like a pad of paper, turning it to face whoever might be watching. And lo and behold, the French letters she wrote down are shifting on the paper magically, rearranging the lines and letters to form a translation into whatever language the viewer speaks. For your benefit, we'll say English!
Attention residents of the Astral Plane~
I have a special offer in such a strange situation! You can have your very own pad like this, but I only have two more!
So, first come, first serve, of course.

[Misaki is in the bar, nursing--a cup of coffee. Plain old coffee, no alcohol added. It's not even coffee so much as drinkable mud. She looks tired and angry and upset, and vaguely like she's been crying and is trying to hide it. She stares into space for a moment, looks down at the mug, and then lays her head on her arms and to all intents and purposes falls asleep.]


[[SO Misaki traded her voice for one of the translation notepads. So she can't talk, but she can communicate! The pad translates whatever is written on it into an acceptable language for the reader.]]

Stupid game, stupid penalty. Satoko's homework is easy as pie, and I can't even do it right now. [Scribble scribble!]

[an unhappy TARDIS appears on the Plane, quite serious, hands on her hips. she's stuck speaking Russian, mainly because she fancies it more than Japanese]

If I might have a word with whomever is in charge? There is a serious matter which we must discuss.
 
 
[She reappears on the plane, with an alteration to her silk fan. She has quite obviously taken a paintbrush to the fabric, tracing across it the five languages she speaks with ease. French, German, English, Latin and Italian. Each word is painted across the surface in her elegant script. At least that much can be then understood. She fans herself, the words flaring visibly.]

[speaking Cat, because he likes it and it's new]

I'd like this a lot better if we didn't have to trade our old languages in first. Two for [pause, counting] ... however many isn't exactly fair. Not that anyone in charge gives a rat's ass about fair.

Still, better make the best of it. Any cats still speak cat?
