This involves a LOT of Japanese, because I'm obsessed with everything Japan related.
There's no copyright warning because THAT'S JUST WRONG. I mean a fanfiction is ALREADY infringing copyright in itself, except the author didn't put a warning or anything... If they did and you don't have their permission, THAT'S JUST WRONG. I'm probably doing that right now...
Anyways, translations WILL be created soon, and eventually I'll probably just make a Japanese version of it to satisfy my needs, but it won't have all the kanji because I do not roll that way.
Unless I deem it necessary. .
-The Holmes Household-
"Hello there, welcome to the-"
"FABOO WORLD OF WONDERS, I'm here with my amazing self, Sapphire, and this bitch over here, Snow."
"Since when were you an extrovert?" Fifteen year old Snow laughed.
Sapphire snorted. "Yeah right, like that'll ever happen. Besides, you aren't gonna post this on YouTube, are you?"
"Totally not..." She spoke slowly.
"I swear, if you-"
"Gyaru, gakkÅ ni iku jikandesu!" called Snow's mother. [Girls, time for school!]
"Hai, kaasan!" Snow replied. [Yes, mother!]
"How do you know Japanese so well?" Sapph stared in wonder.
"Nihon ni sundeimasu!" [I live in Japan!]
"If only I knew what that meant..."
"Don't worry, you'll learn it soon enough." Snow smiled. "Plus, everyone here speaks Japanese. But don't worry, just think of me as your personal translator! Dou itashi mashite, by the way." [You're welcome, by the way.]
"Um...thanks, I guess."
"Isoide!" [Hurry!]
"Sayonara, kaasan. Watashi to issho ni kite kudasai, Sapph." [Goodbye, mother. Come with me, Sapph.]
"Sayonara." Her mother bowed as they approached their bikes, before sighing and continuing working around the house.
"So, how do you say hi in Japanese?"
"I say yaa most of the time, but it really depends." Snow shrugged as they pedaled.
"How about I'm lost?" Sapph flatly asked.
"You won't say that!"
"Just in case!"
"Mayotte shimai mashita. Happy?"
"No."
"Anata wa totemo shinsetsu desu, Sapphire." Snow sarcastically remarked. [You're very kind, Sapphire.]
"Come on, Snow. English!"
"Fine. But I can't when we reach the school, they don't know any other language."
"Oh, great." Sapph sighed.
"Hey, you always wanted to come here, and here we are."
"I expected sitting on the beach with you, not pedaling to school in a pink bicycle."
"Look at the positives. If someone's in your way, you always have the Disney princess horn to honk at them!" Snow laughed.
"Shut up."
Snow rolled her eyes, and as they approached the school, a seven year old ran at them, with her presumed older sister chased after the little girl. "YUKI!" She chirped. "Azelia!" Snow smiled.
"Yuki?" Sapph raised an eyebrow as the two embraced.
"Moushiwake gozaimasen deshita!" The older sister begged. [A polite formal apology you should only use if you've done something very wrong. Obviously, it is against this girl's morals for her sister to go hug people she is not familiar with.]
"Daijyoubu desu, shoujiki ni." Snow nodded. [It's okay, honestly.]
"Iie, chigai masu." [No, it isn't.]
"Ochitsuite." [Calm down.]
Sapphire coughed.
"Oh, um, namae wa nandesu ka? Watashi no namae wa Sugiyama Yuki." [Oh, um, what's your name? My name is Sugiyama Snow.]
"Rohde Murasaki. Hajimemashite, Sugiyama-san." [Rohde Violet. Nice to meet you.]
"Hajimemashite. Kochira wa watashi no tomodachi desu, Ishi Safaia, Sapphire Stone de Eigo. Anata no imouto, tokoro de, kanojo wa tottemo kawaii desu. [Nice to meet you. This is my friend, Stone Sapphire, Sapphire Stone in English. Your little sister, by the way, is very cute.]
"Arigatou, Sugiyama-san." Murasaki sighed, cocking her head to the side a bit. [Thank you.]
"Ikanakutewa narimasen. Sayonara, Rohde-san." Snow said quickly and left the two girls. [I have to go.]
"I didn't know it was Have-A-Full-On-Conversation-With-Strangers-In-A-Language-I-Don't-Understand-While-Your-Friend-Is-Sitting-There-Awkwardly Day." Sapph muttered.
"I'm sorry, but you just get wrapped up into the time. It's like us. It's fun speaking different languages to people."
"You're Japanese, Snow. I understand the thrill for people who have learned it more recently, but-"
"We already went through this, Sapph. You know what happened to me. Don't make me have to say it in front of all of these people." Snow glared at her and then quickened her pace into Kokonoka Academy.
"Wow, this looks nicer than o- my older school..." Sapph gaped.
"I'm sure it does, Sapphire, but it's not that much." Snow shrugged.
"Sumimasen, mouichido itte kuremasuka? Wakarimasen." [I'm sorry, could you say that again? I don't understand.]
Snow was getting quickly irritated with the rather nosy people (you'd occasionally bump into) of Japan, and instead showed Sapph around.
"Lastly, I would like to introduce you to my closest friends. I'm teaching them English, so they don't know much yet. Sapphire, this is Gabbi, Casidy, Yasashi, Emma, and Lina. You already saw Azelia, she's apart of the group as well. Gyaru, Sapphire. Sapphire, gyaru." Snow explained, using a lot of hand motions.
"Hello." Gabbi said, or at least tried to.
"Hello." Sapph replied awkwardly.
After a few moments of silence, Snow excused Sapph and herself, claiming they needed to go to the bathroom before class.
"What was that about?"
"Welll, there's socially awesome people, and there's socially awkward people. Both Gabbi and you, to put it lightly, are not the first."
"Wow," Sapph laughed. "Thanks a lot, Snow!"
A few people stopped to glance at them.
"What?" She looked around.
"Sapph, first of all, you're not yourself. Second of all, Japanese tones are way different than American. What you may think is normal, they think is loud, and that sets you as obnoxious."
"I didn't know you were Siri."
"I didn't know you were Miss Know It All."
"What made you a robot? Did Japan install a tour guide into their cities?" Sapphire snorted.
"Even if I was a robot, I'd still be better than your country."
"Hah!"
"What's so funny?" Snow glared intensely into Sapphire's eyes.
"Just the fact that you think you're better than me!"
"I never said that."
"Exactly."
"I said your country, not just you." She smirked and stepped closer to Sapphire, who's face became redder and redder by the second.
Snow was just about two inches apart from Sapph's face until the bell rang.
Her mind was racing with all kind of things, but the thought that stood out the most was 'Goddammit'.
I'VE SPENT LIKE 5 HOURS ON THIS WOOOOOOOO
So, yes, I'm back with another story.
LIKE YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH SHIT TO PUT UP WITH KERN
SO I have about 5 stories in total I have to keep up with, as well as occasional thoughts of actually putting something on YouTube, as well as watching Markiplier and nigahiga and listening to Weird Al/Devo/The Rolling Stones and whatever satisfies my ADHD.
LIFE'S GREAT.
