As A Language Nut, That Would Be Amazing!

As a language nut, that would be amazing!

for requests, I have a Concept: Portia tries to teach an enthusiastic MC Nivenese/Nevivonian/her native language (I just think this would be adorable). potential bonus round: they have a baby, and want to raise it bilingual (I can just imagine MC quietly swooning over the sound of Portia speaking/singing to the baby in Nivenese, it'd be so so soft)

i have a hard rule that i dont do anything abt having kids, BUT! i can get u some headcanons of:

Portia Teaching MC Nevivonian/Her Native Language

Portia patiently sitting down with MC and teaching them different words and pronunciations.

Finding it equal parts endearing and hilarious when they give their best attempt to tell her something sweet in it and absolutely butcher it.

“Ermmmmmm, you know that means anus right? “

Trying to teach MC how to roll their R’s and ending up giving them That Face when they accidentally spit on her in their attempt.

She puts little pieces of paper all over Every item in their home with the Nevivion language word for it, which helps MC recognize objects until Pepi rolls around on them and moves them.

Teaching MC her favorite shanties and songs in Nevivonian and they sing them together while gardening.

She starts with the curse words, she knows they’re the most important words of any language to know.

MC trying to flirt with Portia in Nevivionian just leads to her breaking down in uncontrollable laughter.

She’s always patient though, and she gives MC as many lessons as it takes and is always looking for teachable moments to tell MC new words or to speak to them in it.

(Mild flashing/eyestrain warning for the second half! I'll post a slower version below that's less flashy and let's you see the details)

A short Morrowind animation for a MAP (Multi-Animator Project).

It was fun trying different methods of animation (no reference for Nerevar, rotoscoping a 3D model for the ring, and a video reference for the hand) and letting myself use a loose sketchy style!

gollums loincloth is like 2 inches of toilet paper and he’s hopping around like disneys quasimodo doing acrobatics and we as an audience are narrowly spared from seeing his peepee but you cannot you CANNOT argue that sam and frodo didnt see it at least once!! they didn’t want to but they didn’t have things like camera angles to save them they probably saw gollums swinging little meat sack a hundred times and both of them just decided to never ever mention it

hey netizens! i'm not sure how many people are aware, but youtube's been slowly rolling out a new anti-adblock policy that can't be bypassed with the usual software like uBlock Origin and Pi-Hole out of the gate

BUT, if you're a uBlock Origin user (or use an adblocker with a similar cosmetics modifier), you can add these commands in the uBlock dashboard to get rid of it!

youtube.com##+js(set, yt.config_.openPopupConfig.supportedPopups.adBlockMessageViewModel, false) youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.adBlocksFound, 0) youtube.com##+js(set, ytplayer.config.args.raw_player_response.adPlacements, []) youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.hasAllowedInstreamAd, true)

reblog to help keep the internet less annoying and to tell corporations that try shit like this to go fuck themselves <3
