dinner time with draco and ginny
Hi! Huge fan of your edits and I don't mean to pry or rush you, but just wanted to ask if u have any updates on the english translation of your fics :)) they look so good and inreresting and i've been fighting the urge to just use google translate to read them lmao thanks and hope u have an awesome day!
hi! thank you for the kind words, means a lot to me, truly <3
unfortunately there is no updates on english translation, here is why:
a. I'm in the middle of my final reading/editing of Back to Black (took a loooooong time to come back to this fic since i first started it and even longer to make me somewhat satisfied by it)
b. it's almost 200k words now (it was 120k before), and I'm afraid that there is just no drinny shippers in russian community that has enough language skills or dedication to do this. maybe if it was dramione fic, but drinny... I doubt that. I would've done it myself but as you probably noticed I have zero knowledge of english grammar. the thing about russian/english translations is that it's SO much harder than vice versa. complexity is a part of it's beauty, and my writing style does not help at all (I was raised on russian literature, so can you really blame me?).
c. my other WIP Fragile was temporarily deleted from all platforms due to the fact that the last update was years ago (yes, I am that author BUT I'm doing better job now when I finally came back to the fandom hehe), so in order to finish the fic I need to rework it a little. that one is supposedly shorter in words, so maybe I will be able to find someone to help me with the translation.
so there's that. if you would still like to use google translate for Back to Black please wait till I finish my editing. i could notify you when I'm done :)
P.S. one of the funniest parts of it all is that I actually design a lot of scenes in very poorly written english and I do have to translate them back to russian later lol. which is stupid because english romance sounds awfully cheesy in russian (that language was built for angst and drama, not for fluff). idk. I consume media/cinema/books in english so it's just makes more sense to me.
anyways sorry for rambling and thanks so much again! have a nice day ❤️
first pic is NOT mine, and its actually Drarry art, but second is mine sooo its kinda Drinny art now ^^
Malfoy stood up on his forearms again, this time to move to her face. A thin silver chain slid down his neck as he loomed over her. Ginny grabbed onto it with her teeth, pulling Draco a little closer.
He wrapped his arms around her neck, pressing his lips tightly against hers.
"I hate the thought of us having to go," he breathed heavily.
"Me too," Ginny said softly, letting him puff on her cigarette.
Draco kissed her on the temple and carefully got up from the couch. He stretched lazily, spreading his arms to the sides. At that moment, Ginny really felt like she had won the lottery.
His beauty was deadly. Even now, the elastic muscles were clearly visible under the pale skin. Crimson lines were spreading along it, from the very collarbones to the hips — traces of the curse wounds still unhealed. He seemed to be a little embarrassed by them, in the same way that one is embarrassed by physical defects. But even despite the bitterness and pain woven into her heart at the sight of the scars, Ginny couldn't help but admire the strength they represented.
She thought that such bodies—antique and strong—were usually captured by sculptors. Or artists. Or poets.
What a shame, really, that she wasn't one of them.

“Well, that was a bit stupid of you,” said Ginny angrily, “seeing as you don’t know anyone but me who’s been possessed by You-Know-Who, and I can tell you how it feels.”
Harry remained quite still as the impact of these words hit him. Then he turned on the spot to face her.
“I forgot,” he said.
“Lucky you,” said Ginny coolly.

“I don’t know if we should be alone together I still got a crush, that’s obvious If nobody’s around, what’s stopping us? Everywhere I go you show, whatever I don’t ever mind sharing oxygen I just wanna get lost in your lungs.”
they are literally the same
