Bleh, fic, and other stuff.

estiriseI'm going through some stress in RL right now, and it's rather making my depression worse. I haven't been motivated to do much - ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
finalauraburst kind of fell by the wayside again due to RL, and I apologize sincerely to the mod that gets to deal with a week of FAB updates. (Hopefully at some point we will add on volunteers or have people who are mods start updating.)
I posted a fic on fanfiction.net which is the first in a while in Esperanto (given how rusty my Esperanto is, this may or may not be a good thing). The translation work helped me keep my mind off the stressy things. The orignal fic (in English) is here on IJ, while the expanded Esperanto version should be (according to the alert email) here. The orignal was a drabble, and the expanded version not much longer. It has spoilers for episode 13 of Kiva, on the off chance that someone on my FL can read Esperanto and watches Kiva.
I couldn't find a translation for "could" (EDIT: 'povi' seems to be closest), and I probably overused "would" (though some of that was Otoya's fault; he was bound and determined there!). "Henshin" was a bit of a challenge; while I probably could have used "henshin" (Esperanto is flexible enough), I chose to translate using the English word "change". I like "henshin", as a whole, it's not hard to fit into English verb form, but it doesn't quite translate well Japanese-English-Esperanto.
