So I'm randomly considering RPing Pierre from the MGS fanfilm at FM. I remember Fly telling me I had to do research on the real Leclerc before doing so.

But uh. Google's come up with nothing. Erk. Help?

Did you check Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippe_Leclerc_de_Hauteclocque) already? :o

It's him? I thought the whole point was that Pierre came from a family of snipers? :blinks:

I have a pretty strong hunch that it is him, and that Pierre just came from a military family instead of specifically a sniper one. *Scratches head* But I wouldn't swear on it. Maybe it's Fly the one that's confusing a fictional, sniper LeClerc ancestor by the real LeClerc? Maybe I should watch the movie again.

Kind of unrelated but EEEEEE, PIERRE ♥~ /o/

Yeah, this. Also, don't do RESEARCH, just - make sure you know who he is.

dfjdf YOU MAKE ME NERVOUS ABOUT PICKING UP THIS CHARACTER

but FM is so gloomy and angsty right now, I think a flirty French gamer/sniper is needed

I just need a username... I wish I knew French.

YOU LIKE IN EUROPELAND

YOU SHOULD KNOW THESE THINGS

maybe I'll just look up how to say "sniper geek" or whatever the French equivalent is. IDK.

YEAH BUT I'M AN ENGLISH PERSON WHO LIVES IN EUROPELAND, I EXPECT EVERYONE TO KNOW MY LANGUAGE

.........but okay, according to my English-French dictionary, how's "le sniper qui joue"? The sniper who plays. That's as close as I can get with my insanely rudimentary French skills (I took it for two years in school).

How AMERICAN of you.

That's an idea, though it allows for no underscores... Pierre's playing AC in the film, would nooks_sniper work? Or something easy like relax_bigchief or something?

I am bad with usernames. I just pick memorable character quotes usually. D8

ETA: Heck, "le_sniper" is available...

I like relax_bigchief or le_sniper.


Also everyone knows Brits are basically Americans, but thinner and with nicer accents.

Because I write porn about Americans. On the battlefield, narrow-minded cultural assumptions get you killed.

Oooh, I still remember when a member of my class (who I fancied, coincidentally) mentioned he was circumcised. He was immediately a peen celebrity and boys asked to see what it looked like.

Also I've just found out while researching my essay that it's technically illegal for us to copy CDs we own legally onto our computer.

What the heck.

We use ripping software like everyone else because the law is so stupid most people don't even know it's illegal.

God, my country sucks.


EDIT: this is so stupid I'm providing a source because OH MY GOD I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP

It's been a while since I spoke, but I used to be conversational. Mind you, the kind of conversations I was in did not involve snipers.

Although I'd bet the French just use "sniper", I'm getting tireur d'élite as a possible translation, which is kind of cool ("shooter of the elite"). Can't help you with geek, though, that's too idiomatic for me.
