I hope so too, though if they don't, I will believe they're there anyway, and you can always write them for us. The same story over and over: I remember a meme to that effect, years ago, and I decided that I am always writing Alice in Wonderland, which I suppose by a stretch and a twist "L'oiseau" could be, if you consider the state in which Simon discovers Duval's true worth to be Wonderland. And of course no one minds.
And so cool to visualize shifting tectonic plates of your mind. I know that sense of resonance between stories and states of being and other forms of art; I know no other languages (including French) well enough to quite grasp how words and states alter between them, but I do think that I'm influenced by the remembrance of grasping the intent of writers who thought in a different language. The Song of My People section of my brain probably speaks Ibsen (though I know no Norwegian and those people of mine were Swedish).
