I guess this new pulse got lost in the repeats that stupid water dredged up. Since there seem to be a lot of you who’re Japanese and online translators suck . . .

[And now in perfectly-spoken Japanese, which at least one person may find strange for him:] Kunrinsha yo. Chiniku no kamen, banshou habataki, hito no na o kansu mono yo. Shounetsu to souran, umihedate sakamaki minami e to ho o susume yo.

[Back to English now.] Mind telling me what exactly I’m saying, there?


[[OOC: Translation is here!]]

My goodness. You must have had quite a tumultuous past life if that is what you get from merely drinking water.

[she's torn between telling him the truth (because that is PRETTY FUCKING RAD) and telling him something really stupid. in the meantime she'll give him a hard time for a little while]

Voice

[icy_heavens]

[With obvious annoyance:] Do you have anything useful to say?

[thorny]

[with that sort of setup it's only half likely that he'll believe anything she says, soooo]

Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south!

[needsmorezippers]

Weird, is what you said. The best translation I can give you is: "Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south!"

Like I said: weird.

[icy_heavens]

... [Sigh.] Obviously, it's too much to ask that it would make sense.

[needsmorezippers]

Obviously.

Guessing you can't actually speak Japanese?

[pitch_slap]

Maybe it's just that my childhood Japanese is rustier than I thought, but that all makes no damn sense. It's just kind of a collection of... phrases? I guess?

[icy_heavens]

According to what other people have said, it doesn't make sense even if your Japanese is good.

[pitch_slap]

sounds like something a kid with a Japanese-English dictionary throwing together words and phrases that sound cool, or something.

So if this were an anime you would have just summoned some eldritch horror or you'd be standing in a crater having cast the mother of all destruction spells.

Also, past you apparently lived in Tokyo.

And possibly battled godzilla.

[icy_heavens]

[Eyeroll, not that anyone can see it.]

Yes, I'm sure I had a part in destroying Tokyo.

[shiromadoushi]

Either that or he was in a weird cult.

Seriously, though. I've seen more sensible incantations in Call of Cthulhu.

Looks like you already got a translation, but I can plus one the accuracy. Sounds like a sort of prayer? Or maybe it's a quote. Nothing I'm familiar with, anyway.

voice;

[icy_heavens]

Would make more sense as a prayer than a quote, even if it's otherwise just nonsense.

voice;

[eras]

True! Maybe you used to be a priest?

[ She's joking. ]

Regardless...I'm sure it'll make sense eventually.

[rota]

[She's not even going to bother translating it for him since she knows there are other people who've already done it.]

A strange yet interesting thing to remember. No context I imagine?

Voice

[icy_heavens]

'Interesting' is one word for it. [There are others, few if any of them complimentary.]

Of course no context. There's never context with these things.

text forever!

[rota]

Some seem to think it's a prayer or chant. I can tell you now that there's no such prayer as far as I remember.

Thus, it may be something unique only to your set of "memories".

[scramasax]

Although I do not understand the Japanese, I also guess that it may be a prayer.

[Interpretation likely bent there from magic by the fact that he has heard an incantation in a vision in what sounded like nothing describable as anything but "magic words".]

[icy_heavens]

Sounds like it could be, from the translations. A prayer or a spell. Though if it's supposed to be a spell, something's missing, since saying it doesn't do anything.

[scramasax]

Have you had any visions that involved spells?

[earnedmystripes]

[Welp.]

...The Japanese people wherever past-you's supposed to be from are weird.

[icy_heavens]

Or crazy.

Now you're a magical samurai ☆*:.｡. o(≧▽≦)o .｡.:*☆

[ return of the japanese emotes. HE DIDN'T FORGET, AL. ]

[icy_heavens]

... What the hell is that supposed to be? [He does not understand Japanese emotes.]
