The Spanish segments of this story were provided by online translators. I don’t know more than four words of Spanish so I can’t be sure they’re accurate. I’m willing to correct any mistakes if you point them out, though.

I thought this was great. A single pill to cure mortality – of course, it kills you several times, but whatev.

And the fact that somehow, while dead, you learn Spanish and get a glowing pinky toe? Bonus!

For those who don’t feel like looking up the spanish words, I shall translate to what I think they mean.

el despertar = waking up
no divertido = not fun
Por qué estoy thinking en Spanglish? = Why am I thinking in Spanglish?

Now, even though I’m as much of a stickler for spanish as a non-native speaker can try to be, the use of translator (and all the non-exactness they provide), to me, just sort of works here. I have no clue why, but it does.

And even though the real things would be “waking (myself) up=despertándome,” and “(it is) not fun=no es divertido,” you are by no means obligated to change them. Personally I like the inaccuracies.

I loved the sudden randomness of the Spanglish, not to mention the best side effect ever.

those musical warts will give you away though! can’t play hide-n-seek, can’t have a moment of silence..
lol
best side effect, and the back to life part is hilarious..
learning new skills. or accessing new parts of the brain? hmm

You know, I bet the “musical” part of musical warts is just pure euphemism. They just didn’t want to put “flatulent warts” on their packaging.

On suddenly learning Spanish, I just kind of wanted to hint that a person couldn’t die and come back without SOME sort of change to who they were. Especially when they’ve died that many times. Where the Spanish comes from, and why, I have no idea.

I giggled at the musical warts bit. I wonder what they’re playing. Yellow Rose of Texas is my guess.

Ahahahaha, I really liked this. I love the whole immortality stuff, and flaws just make it all the better. :]
