Yay yay, another chappie up an' running by the super-de-duper Catie, who is
really hyper right now because she just made Christmas cookies and they aren't
burnt! Yippee! Okay, on with the chappie!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cad, Catie and Ser grouped around Will, exclaiming over him ecstatically-but in
French.
"Oh, il est si mignon!" Ser gushed.
"Adorable!" chimed in Catie.
"Simpliment divin," Cad sighed.
"I'm hungry!" Jack announced, but was ignored by the girls. Unperturbed, he
proceeded to hop around the kitchen yelling "I'm hungry!" at the top of his voice.
The girls continued to chatter away in French to Will, who, knowing not an inkling
of French, just stood there looking puzzled, and it was a few minutes before the
girls noticed his confusion.
"Pourqoui ne est il parle?" Catie asked worriedly.
"Peut-etre il est sourd," Cad said in an uncertain voice.
"Le darn, tout les garçons mignones sont sourdes," Ser grumbled.
She turned around in disappointment, only to find Jack, who had ceased jumping
around the kitchen bellowing, inches away from her left ear. She yelped in fright and
he jumped back, startled.
"Sorry, luv, I didn' mean ta give ya a frigh' li' that, bu' may I enquire as ta why ya
lasses were conversin' in the noble language of français?"
Ser furrowed her eyebrows. "We were?"
Jack looked at her as if concerned of her sanity. Ser gave him an identical one.
"Ya, ya were, luv. An' youn' mistah Turner here, he doesn' exactly comprehend français,
savvy? On'y good ol' English."
"We were not speaking French!" Ser hissed.
"Wanna bet?"
Ser clenched her fists and squeezed her eyes shut in frustration. She exhaled noisily, then
opened her eyes. "Alright, Sparrow, you win. But don't get used to it. And we won't be
speaking French to Mr. Turner again." She turned back to Cad, Catie and Will, but found
only Cad and Catie.
"Where's Will?" she asked her friends.
"Over there," said Catie dismally. "He ditched us for some of his pirate buddies."
"Yeah, and he looked at us like we were seaweed or something equally gross, like eggplant."
Cad looked down at her feet miserably. "I just don't understand it. We usually can get any
cute guy to fall for us."
"Well, girls, the fact is that we were speaking French," Ser explained.
"No, we weren't," Catie contradicted her.
"Yes, actually we were."
"Whoa, I didn't even notice!" Cad exclaimed. "I guess being bilingual is freaky after all!"
Catie and Ser gave her a quizzical look.
"Make that quadruple-lingual, Cad."
"Oh, right."
"Anyway," Ser continued. "We have to watch ourselves."
"Why?" asked Catie and Cad at the same time.
'Because," said Ser.
"Because why?"
"Because hot young Will doesn't speak French, unfortunately."
"Darn," said Catie.
"Yeah, darn," Cad echoed.
There was a minute of silence.
"At least he's not deaf," Catie said finally.
"That's definitely a relief!" laughed Ser.
"Hooray!" Cad cheered, and, not even knowing what they were cheering for, but not
wanting to look stupid, the other pirates joined in.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aaaaaaaaand, here's the French translation for anyone who wants to know...also,
just like with the Spanish chapter, we could really use any help we can get with this
translation, because none of us take French, and my French dictionary really really
stinks.
1. "Oh he's so cute!"
2. "Adorable!" (big toughie)
3. "Simply divine"
4. "Why isn't he talking?"
5. "Maybe he's deaf"
6. "Darn, all of the cute guys are deaf"
Coming up in the next chappie, which will air sometime next weekend if wedecide
to update...
uuuuuuum, don't remember have to ask Cad, cuz she's the one who wrote it!
Shoutouts:
Warrier Chick: thanx billions for the French lesson! are these translations okay?
keep reading! it gets funnier!
wild-lotus: hehe, the title is completely and utterly RANDOM! yippee! Ser thought
of it cuz she couldn't think of anything serious, and since the story isn't very serious,
it's kinda fitting. and we try to write alot, and it ends up being really really long on paper,
but then we type 'em up and it's short. it's so sad!
