That's correct. Looks like you beat errinundra to the punch, so your turn.

It'll be a relief when dtm42 is no longer under moderation.

I'm still feeling somewhat robbed as I'd thought I'd won for over six hours. (And then the moderators logged in...)

So...

From the licensed sub:

A: Mom’s not coming back tonight.

B: She sure has to stay over night a lot, these days.

A: And dad’s away overseas a lot, every year. I’m turning into a delinquent. <Pause> I just wanted to say that.

Licensed dub:

A: Mum’s not coming back tonight.

B: She sure has to stay overnight a lot these days.

A: And every year Dad spends more and more time overseas. They’ll regret it. <Pause> I always wanted to say that.

Hint # 2: spoiler[By the end of the story the main character has been granted her most fervent wish, however it comes at a cost - her closest companion relinquishes a remarkable ability.]

Following is not contiguous but is consecutive. Ellipsis indicates pause.



The way that she died . . . it was truly something brutal. Made sport of by those bastards, she was covered with cuts and bruises all over. In the pouring rain she'd been dumped with less care than a pile of trash. With one eye put out, and her face distended and swollen. Her left arm torn, and the broken bones sticking out.

Hmmm, with the moderator approved posting for dtm42, I wonder if 48 hours has really passed. Well, nothing to go on except the time stamp. Razz

Let's get the ball rolling again.

Well, I don't really know how the game works and all that, but to answer your question there are currently no posts by dtm42 awaiting action at this time.
