Wednesday DE: Kriff!

What's your character's favourite swearword? Is it specific to their world? Maybe they don't curse / use rude language, and there's a reason for it?

Not a specific curse word, but it's my headcanon that Hera often curses in Huttese, and that this is fairly common for those who speak Huttese as a second language.

"Shit" and "fuck" are Cirava's standbys. Can't go wrong with the classics. Alternian swear words are basically the same as English ones, although I'm not really sure whether "motherfucker", a favourite of Gamzee's, is referencing the Mother Grub or a female lusus (since trolls don't give live birth or, generally, raise children themselves). Also nobody seems to care whether children or adolescents swear on Alternia, at least not because of their age. Equius does seem to have a problem with foul language in general but he's excessively concerned with propriety. Aradia swears once in a while, but not as copiously as some of her friends; she doesn't go in for agglutinative strings of profanity the way, say, Karkat does, and usually has a more specific way to express negative feelings than a standalone swear word.
