Talk:Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei:Volume 8 Chapter 6

To Unknown Person,

1. It is Okaa-sama or some variation of mother not Aunt
2. It is parka-a type of jacket, not parker.
3. Even if you are not going to register, you should probably read the General Format/Style Guideline and follow them out of courtesy to the editors

I am sorry if I came off as rude but when I saw that you had not registered I thought whoever it was might be even more of a novice than me. I am still in the process of figuring out how to do the things listed there. For example, I should have probably requested help with the monkey metaphor I omitted in Presidential Elections and the Queen. And I know that have alot to be thankful for them since after when I go over my own work I am still finding a lot of simple punctuation errors and spots where I forgot to write an important clause or wrote mad when I meant made.Sashiko (talk) 23:18, 25 February 2013 (CST)

Thank you for taking the time to just simply find out my name.

1. Yes it is Okaa-sama, but since Maya is Miyuki's aunt (cos her real mother is, y'know, dead), and there is no expedient way to TL the nuances of the term, I went with the simplest.
2. Er, I knew that. *cough*
3. I believe me and the editors have long since come to an accommodation on guidelines. /not being selfish

Isn't Miya (the mother) still alive in this flashback tho? That being said it should be 2092, and it's young Miyuki and Tatsuya on the beach. --Drowzycow (talk) 10:41, 26 February 2013 (CST)

Shiba Miya died in the experiment on Tatsuya, which occurred earlier than the events in this flashback. As seen by Maya's visit to them during the Thesis arc, Miyuki refers to her as Okaa-sama, which is why I assume it's the same here. Seit (talk) 12:55, 26 February 2013 (CST)

Do you mean the visit by their stepmother, Sayuri? During that visit I got the impression their mother only died fairly recently due to statements between Sayuri and Tatsuya,

"Miyuki may think that way. After all, it's only natural for her to be somewhat resentful if her father remarried less than half a year after her mother died. Even though she may act like an adult, she's really just a 15 year old young girl."

"......And you?"

"I am incapable of such an emotional reaction. That was the way I was forged."

"......Well, forget it, regardless of whether that's true or not, that's no longer in my hands. Even so, if we were to talk about that, I hope that you can seriously listen to him, since it was only half a year for you two, but a whole 16 years for me."
