How Would You Indicate/punctuate A Message/conversation In Sign Languague While Making A Difference Between

How would you indicate/punctuate a message/conversation in sign languague while making a difference between normal diologue?

So far I have been using

*BlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBla*: for the just sign languague transcription;

["BlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBla" Narration]: for when there's speaking interactions of which the non-hearing character is not aware of or there's just no translation for them;

"*BlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBla*": for when a character signs and speaks at the same time;

"BlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBla" Hey! Someone else is singning and the diologue it's just the translation: For when someone is translating to someone who doesn't know signs, but is clear they're just tranlators

*BlaBla,BlaBla,BlaBla,BlaBla*// *BlaBla;BlaBla;BlaBla;BlaBla*// *BlaBla.BlaBla.BlaBla.BlaBla*: To indicate the physical pause between signs for someone who's not used to signing

And the usual, *B-L-A-B-L-A-B-L-A*: for finger spelling, but If there's a diologue translation I'll just put the normal word.

I really want to integrate sign languague in my stories correctly, but remarking the difference between the communication methods in a graphical way. Any thoughts or suggestions?

She does both

She arrives with an over complicated dress that outshines the discoball and any lights on the room for her grand entrance, gets photos and, maybe, a couple of dances.

Then during the middle of the party, she excuses herself and goes change into the suit, gets photos that she later sends to Stand and Ford, because she knows they'd adored the gesture and ended in tears, does whatever crazy thing She couldn't do in the dress and goes back home in the suit

I WAS RIGHT!!!!!!

Minus the Red+Mei addition (for now)

Maybe I was remembering the mention of Wunkong's War-Form subconsciously, but, meh, I'm just basking in my joy over here

A distraction for most of Heaven, you say...🤔🤔

I bet 3 Peaches for Wunkong's War-Form/kaiju form + Mei and Red for extra chaos

🍑🍑🍑

Who raises the bet?!?

Luna, Yet Again, Being A Bad Influence To The Ninjalinos.

Luna, yet again, being a bad influence to the ninjalinos.

Nori isn't even trying to stop them at this point, they know the answers they would get:

A. Luna uses the 'I help you kidnap them, so they're also my sidekicks by extend' card. For the last time, it was a rescue!!!

B. The ninjalinos use their pleading face, with big teary eyes and quivering lip perfectly practised and a weak plead of "I want to help". Curse the day they found out about his weakness.

C. Both.

Most of the time Luna just ends Up doing this as an excuse to mess up with Nori and/or give the ninjalinos a treat because she doesn't want their childhood to be like hers and if that means spoil them just a bit, well She can manage it.

YES!!! YESS!! ALL OF THIS!!

THE SAPPHIC YEARNING!!!

GunnTech! Lunalette be like:

GunnTech! Lunalette Be Like:

But also:

GunnTech! Lunalette Be Like:

(Idk which one I prefer)

(The idea of Luna not being able to figured out for YEARS if she had a crush on Amaya or her constantly flirting with Amaya since they were younger)

(I feel I could combine them somehow...anyway)

I couln't finish it in time because of uni, so I had to split it but...

What would happen if Wukong’s “Mighty Commanders” in JTTW found out about Mk in the Shadowpeach Bio Parents AU. (My version of the characters of FFM’s warlords)

For the sake of simplicity, all of them know about MK being Wukong’s student at some extend.

“Mk is our kid”

General Beng

Beng: *Takes a sips of their drink*

Macaque: It was a… recent discovery

Beng: ...You two just added even more baggage to a kid, who has dealt with resentful beings that not only do they not know how to deal with their damage other than try to recreate it in someone else, but also not know the limits of their influence in psyche of a person like him.

Wukong: We know…

Beng: I really hope you help him trough it, reduce it as much as it’s possible, and be there for him, regardless of your relationship, do NOT dump him aside because you think it’s unbearable, he deserve that much. MK. Deserves. Support.

Macaque: We know, and we’re working on… us. We’ll be there for him help, I swear it!

Beng: Then, congratulations on the cub.

Wukong: Not much of a cub, but thank you.

Marshal Liu

Liu: *Shock face*

Wukong: Are you alrigh-

Liu: Ok, Ok! Le- let me recap for a second. You two dance around each other for decades, almost a century of pinning! Then Mac finally decides to courtnap you and BEGS US, the commanders of FFM and Wukong’s trusted advisors, to let him do it without, and I quote, “added complications” from us, which of course we do, because we had been asking you for a Queen, Regent, 2º King; whatever the heck you wanted to call them, since you became King! So, you become official lovers. Yay! You enter the honeymoon phase, reeeaallyyyy cheesy, but manageable. Yay! At some point of dealing with you, lovebirds, the infamous question of “when are you marrying and/or crowning Mac?” begins to rise, and you avoid it like it’s poison for months! Then the attack on Heaven happen, then the imprisonment under the mountain, then the journey, then the fight, and the a ton of other things of which I don’t have the time nor the energy to enumerate! And now you’re telling me this!?

Macaque: I’m aware is a lot to take in bu-

Liu: I’m not done yet, Mihou. So, now I’m asking you, Sun Wukong, Lord of Gold, have you, at least, thought of crowning your cub and his other parent? Or do they stay as a “technically” bastard and a “technically” royal affair in your already dead social image?

Wukong: ...Look I haven’t had the time to search crowns that would fit them

Macaque: You wh-

Liu: SHIHOU!!! WE CROWN YOU WITH A FLOWER CROW!!!

Wukong: My point still stands! They deserve something fancy!

(I'll make a part 2 when uni isn't kicking my ass.

Love you all)

Question for AO3 users in general:

I'm writing something set in the US with drunk shenanigans involved. All of the characters are currently of legal drinking age by the US regulation.

In said something I have a character who is not from the US, but from a country whose legal drinking age is 18, I want to mention this because it means said character has been drinking for longer than their current social circle, has better tolerance, has more expirence with drunkess and stories with It, etc.

However, since I'm writing this in English and setting It in a place in which the legal drinking age is 21, should I tag 'Mentioned Underaged Drinking'? Because it's an important warning in any fanfic, and even more important in one with drunk shenanigans.

I could also add a note at the start or the description explaining what do I mean by the tag or, if I don't add the tag, explain why I added that little bit of semi-cannon (headcannon?) info in a note or the tags in some way.

I'm not from the US, and open to feedback what should I do?

GunnTech AU Character's Favorite Animal Headcanon to Little to None Explanation

or it's 2024, my current hyperfixation is @elmushterri 's GunnTech AU and I don't care anymore

Connor: Cats in general (for obvious reasons), but Stray and Feral cats have his whole heart. Almost every time he goes out for a run or whatever he'd bring a backpack with cat food, treats, maybe even cheap water bowls and leave them where he knows there's a ton of strays.

Greg: Geckos, it's Lizards in general but geckos are his obvious Top 1

Amaya: Everyone thinks is Owls (for obvious reasons), they were when she younger, but is currently Moths.

Nori: Crickets since they were young and Maine Coons, he thinks they match his own glamourous style sooo perfectly. They also do the 'leave food for strays' thing with the ninjalinos but incluing dogs, also he swears there's someone else feeding a specific Cat colony and reallyyy wants to meet them. (Of course it's Connor, I'm a sucker for this kind of thing)

Romeo: Ants. His mom definitely helped him do an ant colony in a bottle or a jar and he still has It, upgraded of course, but he keept the original jar.

Luna: Ferrets. Tiny, but mighty. When she was younger it was Moths and Owls.

Cartoka: Rabbits. Will correct anyone who calls them Roddents, they're Lagomorphoes.

Carly: Turtles. Everybody thinks she and Greg bonded at some point because they think their favorites are very similar, but they actually have regular arguments about the topic because Carly thinks 'Amphibians are superior' and has gotten on Greg's nerves once or twice.

Isabella "Octobella": Absolutely loved Octopous prior to GunnTech, because of its intellegence; then in GunnTech she got bullied for that, got the nickname then the transformation happened and started to dispite them (and herself). Later in life she started to redirect that anger towards GunnTech and work on her self-steem, but currently if you ask her she'll respond Shrimps. A Ninjalino asked her and agreed with the Shrimp answer saying they were cool, so she's a little more confident about that liking.

Dylan: He reallyyy wants to say Triceratops, but thinks is too childish so he says Rhinos

An Yu Guō: It's a tie between Iguanas and Dragonflies

Badriya "Bastet": She really thinks any type of feline would be unoriginal, so she goes with Bettles. Except if it's Connor asking, then it's Cheetahs

Rhiannon "Ripp": Wolfs. When she was younger she adored the whole 'Wolfs are solitary, cool and edgy' type of media; but now she's more leaned towards the 'being a pack' idea.

Hywel "Howler": Deers, oddly enough.

Kevin: Pigeons. He really resonates the whole 'all the Pigeons in the US are the decendants of old Messenger Pigeons and were abandon after they were no longer of use and became feral' thing, so he has a lot of respect for them and feeds them seeds, not bread.

Ivan: Polar Bears. He knows it's basic but doesn't care.

Newton: Fireflies.

Lily "Lilyfay": Buterflies and Sea Angels, just because Newton show her a picture and she thought it was super cool and pretty.

Daisy (Ninjalino): Hamsters

Eloide Mecano (Romeo's mom): Frogs and Toads. Not in a 'I want to dissect them' way, in a 'I have large specialized terrariums for each species that I have' and 'I love their skin's texture' kind of way.

Maria Martinez (Connor's mom): Fancy Cat Breeds like Ragdolls, Persians, Bengalis, etc. but NOT Maine coons because She thinks they're 'too much like dogs', she also goes to Cat Shows but doesn't participate. As well as thinking Strays are dirty and dangerous, so Connor has to hides the 'feeding strays and feral' thing (Shut up, I like RomComs)

Kimiko Kobayashi (Amaya's Aunt): Poodles. She grew up with standard poodles, currently has toy poodles and She reallyyy wants to have a Royal-Size at some point. Plus, She participates in Dog Shows; if it's one of 'the Big ones' there's usually a Cat Shows happening in the same place so I imagine Maria and her having coffee together and talking trash about EVERYONE

Grayson Gunn (Greg's Uncle): Gigant Scolopendra

Phinneas Gunn: He denied this multiple times trough his life for various reason, but Koalas
