Glossary- Fire & Ice: Part 1: Friend and Foe
I suppose this is a glossary. I'm not really sure, maybe it's a…what ya-ma-call-it…an index. I'm just going to call this a glossary.
This explains the meaning of names, main symbols, and blah blah blah. I'm sure you get it.
The Black Sneasel- If you haven't already guessed, she's death. You could sort of tell she's death by the book she's holding: Ice Pokemon's Death.
Da- In Chinese means "Hit" or "Big." I was going for "Hit."
Dong- In Chinese it means "Cold."
Huo- In Chinese it means "Fire," and I'm sure you understand why I chose the name. If you don't then, WOW, you're really slow aren't you?
Lang- It means "Chilly."
Mei-Hong- In Chinese, roughly translated means "Beautiful Red." Yes, I know, the name doesn't suit her well, but I chose this name because red can symbolize evil, death, or, even, luck. If you think about all those things are part of the life cycle, and life is a beautiful thing. Why did she get this name? Well, um, she's a hot-tempered beauty! Heh heh heh…^_^;;;
Nose rubbing- I like to think of it as kissing.
Shui- In Chinese it means "Water." I know Sneasels are Ice/Dark, but "Bing," the Chinese word for ice, doesn't suit her, you know?
Shui-Bing- This could mean one of two things: "Water-Soldier" or "Water-Ice." When I wrote this story I was thinking more of the "Water-Soldier" than "Water-Ice."
