French near the lake

[snailo]

Lying near the lake, Faye waited for Darius. He had agreed to help her improve her French and she was excited about her soon to be developed language. Closing her eyes peacefully she hummed a French lullaby that her brother, often unwillingingly, used to sing to her to get her to sleep.......
((you can start speaking the French lol))

Darius ambled up to Faye, regretting the deal that they had made earlier.
"Oy...French," Darius smiled and took in a deep breath. "But this was a good idea of yours, otherwise I'll get rusty."
Darius sat on the shore next to Faye and then laughed weakly at their silence, each hoping the other would start speaking first. "Well, what should we talk about?"

[snailo]

"Je ne sais pas." She laughed at his reluctance. She sat up and faced Darius. "Well?" She waited for him to say something in French. She did think that it would be beneficial for both of them.

[dairywizard]

"Euh..." Darius began, blushing at his bad accent. "Ou est-ce que nous commence?" He sighed, and decided to go for the easy basics, and work their way up. "Ca-va?"

[snailo]

"Je suis beau, merci. Et vous?" She said slowly. She wasn't sure if it was correct but decided to just have a go. She was sure that Darius wasn't going to laugh at her grammar mistakes.

[dairywizard]

"Moi, je suis mal..." Darius sighed. "Est-ce que vous voyez ma cheveux? Je suis chauve!"
Darius rubbed the crown of his head and sighed. "Est-ce que vous savez les breuvages magiques pour le develope de le cheveux? Il n'y pas des livres en la matiere!"
ooc: I apologize to the french, for the butchering of their language. Also, sorry to snailo, for having to endure my horrible attempt at a sentance that I do not fully understand myself.

[snailo]

Faye giggled like a child. "Darius! Vous etes chauve? Je suis desole - mais ceci est vraiment drole! Je ne peux pas le remarquer. Peut-etre...I peut demander mon cousin. Il travaille a un chimiste. Ou nous pouvons aller aux potions de bibliotheque et decouverte pour grandir de retour vos cheveux?" She suggested, her French falling apart in certain areas.
((do not apologize for you French darius! it is good!!!!!! i am the one who should be apologizing - for you are the one who is putting up with my horrendous attempt to speak French lol btw i cant put the accents above letters :$))

[dairywizard]

((ooc: I can't either; but I heard that it's something with a slash after a certain letter and then something like [/]...so I won't bother. It doesn't matter about the accents--I can still understand it.
Also, I think this is doing more harm than good. I haven't taken french for 3 weeks now, and now with Japanese I'm getting my languages mixed. What languages are you taking, again?))
"Votre cousin est un chimiste?! Est-ce que il attendre Hogwarts, l'ecole des sorciere?" ((<-- I know that's not right, but I thought it sounded neat so I kept it.)) Darius then sighed. "Oh la la...j'ai oblier...il a trop ans....il n'est pas un etudiant. Ou est-il?"

[snailo]

((i take latin and german! i dont even take french!!!! ah dear. now im getting confused. did you ask whether he goes to hogwarts? and whether he was a student or not??? hmm.......my brother's not online for me to pester and pester lol))
"Oui. Mon cousin est chimiste. Il ne va pas a Hogwarts. Il est etudiant a une ecole de Muggle." Faye said.

[dairywizard]

ooc: yes, I asked how he could help us, and then I asked if he went to Hogwarts. Then Darius realized that since he has an occupation he must be too old to go to Hogwarts. So, yes, I think you got the jest of it.))
"Il est une Muggle? Comment est-ce que il a les bruvages magiques si il est une muggle? Tres impressif!"

[snailo]

((ahhh....see i told you i'm not that good at french! lol))
"Oui. Il est une Muggle. Il peut vous obtenir les medicaments. C'est comme la magie. Ou j'avais suggere que nous allons a la bibliotheque et trouvons une potion magique." Faye sighed. She was starting to struggle and she desperately wanted her brother by her side to help her out. "Me dit la verite...mon francais est terrible, n'est-ce pas?"

[dairywizard]

"Non!" Darius said, shaking his head enthusiastically. "J'adore parler francaise avec vous! Mais si vous veurez ((eek, my spelling)), je ne vais pas parler francaise. Est-ce que vous preferez l'aglaise?"

[snailo]

"Merci. Non, bien que c'est plus facile pour moi parler le francais. J'aime parlant le francais avec vous aussi." She smiled sheepishly. "Vous n'etes pas comme mon frere. Il aime rire a mon accent." Faye rolled her eyes.

[dairywizard]

"Vrai?" Darius smiled. "J'aime le francais, mais je suis mal, et quand j'ai parler francais, mon accent est tres regretable." Darius sighed and then grinned at Faye. "Je suis heureux!" he then shouted, changing the subject abruptly. "Mias l'ecole est tres suel, maintenant. Ou est tout-le-monde? Je suis soupconneux." Darius twiddled his head boy badge between his fingers after pulling it out of his pocket.
"Il n'y pas des etudiants, signification il n'y pas responsabilites."

[snailo]

((you've lost me now and i can't talk to my brother or have time for a dictionary))
"Darius....you've completely lost me now. What are you talking about? You said you like to speak French but you're not good at it. Then you said you were happy....then you talked about......" She trailed off, waiting for Darius to fill in the blanks and inform her.
