It's not a planet, it's a yellow cartoon dog

Waaaah, Pluto, I'll miss you! ;_;

I wrote a Spanish Touya/Yukito fic today, and I had completely forgotten how easier it is to write in your own language. It's been so long since I've done it, I started plotting the lines in my head in English XD But after I turned that switch off, it went so nicely. You don't have to rack your brains so much, searching for a word or the most adequate translation you can think of. Because at least in my case, I find myself writing in some sort of English/Spanish mash (not Spanglish or Florida!latin!English; it's something weirder than that), in which you tend to mentally fill the holes with the language you're writing on. They tend to be loose words or particular fragments you can't find an easy way to say in your limited (or not) vocabulary.

But when you type in the language you learned to think in, it's so much better. You have less doubts. Sure, you have less readers as well, but what can you do.

ETA2: OMFG. Laurus wrote a Good Omens/CCS drabble. Win.

Es ...como si discriminaran a Plutón sólo por ser pequeño. Yo siempre lo consideraré un planeta.

Sobre la escritura, me pasa. Acostumo a escribir en catalán, pero a veces se me cuela alguna palabra inglesa y soy incapaz de expresarla en otro idioma. O tal vez mi cerebro es demasiado vago.

No es sólo eso. Es que la órbita de Plutón atraviesa la de Neptuno y un montón de cosas más. A una amiga mía que estudia geología le explicaron bien el porqué es lógico que lo sacaran en vez de agregar a todos los planetoides de ese tamaño en el sistema solar.

Pero igual, qué nostalgia te entra T_T

Era lógico que no lo hicieran sólo por eso, debe haber más cosas cómo la órbita, su composición... Pero el hecho que lo designen como "planeta nano" te da a entender que el principal motivo fue ese.
