Welcome

And while it’s true that sometimes the two words are used interchangeably, I think it would be even more interesting if their understanding of each other’s languages eventually improved to the point where the subtle differences in the connotations of “grace” and “mercy” could actually be appreciated.

“Mercy” is most often is used when someone deserves a punishment or other consequence, but they are spared by someone in a position of power, who chooses to withhold the punishment that would otherwise be just.

“Grace” usually refers to when an undeserving person receives something good (a gift or help or kindness) that is bestowed upon them by some other benevolent person or force.

When Marius re-entered the redoubt with Gavroche in his arms, his face, like the child, was inundated with blood.

At the moment when he had stooped to lift Gavroche, a bullet had grazed his head; he had not noticed it.

“Grace says he would like half of dome to be water.”

“Oh, is necessary for humans to have large amounts of water question?”

Small Eridian equivalent of a sigh. “No. Not needed for life. In fact Grace will die if he falls in water and does not get out.”

“Tell him we give him water in containers that won't kill him. Lots lots lots of water on Erid for Grace to drink.”

“No. Grace say he want water on ground. Also want it with excess sodium chloride compound so it will be unhealthy for drink.”

“Grace want this liquid for celebration.”

“Of course.” They scan it. “You have wrong liquid. This contain compounds which are poisonous for humans.”

“Yes yes yes. Grace say humans like feeling of being slightly poisoned.”

it’s the story of those who always loved you // happy barricade day! 

1. Italian: Tomato + basil + oregano + red onions + mozzarella (dip: balsamic vinegar + olive oil)

2. Greek: Feta + Parsley + Dill + Olives (dip: lemon + olive oil)

3. Potato salad: Dill + Parsley + Cucumber + Spring onions (dip: tartar sauce)

4. Döner: pickled cabbage + parsley + cucumber + tomato (Dip: yoghurt garlic)

5. Omelette: egg + chives + parsely + bell peppers (dip: ketchup, or sauce hollandaise)

We all have to make sacrifices. If I have to be the world's whipping boy to secure our salvation, then that's my sacrifice to make.
