Alt Text: A comic in four panels:

Panel 1. While walking on a path in nature, a young fantasy adventurer with a fairy with pink hair, suddenly looks at the floor at a golden shiny detail crossing their way:

Pink-fairy: “Stop! A Golden Twenty Dice!”
Adventurer: “A what?..”

Panel 2. Shot on the fairy landing on the grass near to a golden scarab pushing a d20 golden dice.

Pink-fairy: “A scarab rolling fate! We could take his dice and roll our own fortune. Last time a twenty turned a farmer into a lord!”

Panel 3. The adventurer kneels down near the fairy and scarab, really curious now. The fairy is super happy and exited.

Pink-fairy: “A moment like this comes only once in a lifetime! Please, please, please, let me try!”
Adventurer: “Mmm… Ok. Why not.”

Panel 4. The adventurer runs for his life while the pink fairy is grabbing him to follow his motion. She is very embarassed, and him feels anger and frustration in this emergency run. A lightning strike near them and burns the floor, a crack on the floor appears, a furious dragon runs after them and try to bite them, and a meteor is about to fall on them.

Adventurer: “Of course you rolled a one!”
Pink-fairy: (in small) “Sorry…”

        I call bullshit. That’s a ridiculous argument to use in the same sentence as an archaic form of “sacrifice.”

            Well, I know better than to post comics in his language and butcher it.

              Nothing is butchered. The comic still makes sense.

              Language is nothing more than some sounds used to convey information. As long as the information is conveyed, it did its job.

              And that is especially with languages that are just 3 languages in a trenchcoat.

              Hi SpaceNoodle. I think you should watch a blender tutorial made by a native English speaker and pay attention to what they call the singular intersection of multiple edges. I think you’d enjoy that a lot.

      “I’ll buy a dice.”

      “‘Die’, Larry!”

      “Pardon me. I didn’t know you were that competitive. Maybe I should come back later when you calm down.”

      “Larry! Darling. It’s one DIE, two DICE. Dice is the plural of die.”

      “Oh, well, I knew that. Never mind.”

      It’s amazing how many people not only screw it up, but insist you’re wrong when you try to correct them.
