    Gaeilge just to fuck with the brits. We all have to write it in ogham too, I don’t care how inconvenient it might be.

    That or serbo-croatian because we are all serbs anyway

        Such a pretty language. I should learn it someday!

      I would have picked gaeilge too, since it’s the only other language I know (kinda, I’m terrible at it). Ogham sucks though.

        Yeah Ogham would be fucking awful for modern communication but I thought it’d be really funny. In a more serious sense I actually think it’d be super interesting to see how humans adapted to it and adapted it to their needs.

        Anyway I also picked Gaeilge because it makes for great lyricism
