This is an excellent opportunity to work on our Senior Projects. I hope you all realize this. An extra day of this sort is a gift.

	No, no. Rafael is the worst of you all by far. Officially, nothing, yet. And you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'll be sure to tell him that! (Repeatedly.)

I'm shocked. But I'm sure you'll figure it out. And I'm translating this (loooong) epic poem from Mermish to English, once as a direct translation and once trying to maintain the rhythm and the feel of the original piece. I'm also using various charms to restore it and preserve it because the book's old and falling apart. I found it tucked away in my family's library last year and I was curious, so I started teaching myself Mermish and I thought hey, this seems academic! so I got the go-ahead to use it for my project. Sort of serendipitous, I guess. I have no clue what I would've done otherwise.

	Do that. Tell him it's from me. Oh, I've something up my sleeve, never fear. It just hasn't bee approved yet. That sounds fascinating, Ty. Do you think i could see what you've got so far? Only out of curiosity, of course- my own project bears no relation, but that does sound impressive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am. Right now. Give me a hint? You've got me curious! Yeah? And here I thought I was the only linguaphile in this school. Sure! Swing by sometime when we're free (we'll be free again someday, right?) and I can show you. Do you want a dramatic reading? I can totally do a dramatic reading. (Reply to this) (Parent)
