fic translation of My Friend, the Pope (in-training)
SilverManjusaka translated Part 3 of My Friend, the Pope (in-training) into Chinese. It's the chapter featuring Ceo's POV!
Here's the update.
I love it. :D It's such an odd but cool feeling reading your own work as interpreted by someone else. I found Ceo quite endearing here, and I actually smiled at some parts??? Like, "oh, I liked what happened here!" but wait, wasn't I the original author It's cool. It's like reading a whole new story and getting to enjoy a storyline I've wanted to see. That's part of the reason why I write in the first place, wanting to see certain stories! Since other people haven't written it, I end up writing it myself. Now I get the best of both worlds! XD
This reminds me though that it's been some time since I've updated the story. Eeeep. I'm probably going to try to finish this oneshot about Adair (I've been stuck on it for 2 years... Not that I've spent 2 years writing it, but it's been sitting in my folder for that long... Can I finally finish it?) and then I might see if I can poke either Invincible or My Friend, the Pope back into life. why so many unfinished stories At least, Drink Me Under was a short fic. Thank the God of Light! Yay for completed fics!
Anyway, here's the discarded introduction to the Adair fic. The new version is around 1.5k so far. I'm hoping I can finish it sometime. =x
Under the Sky in the Warmth of the Sun
Although Adair had accepted his captain (after being blasted off a cliff a hundred times), he still didn't know his captain all that well. At first, Adair had thought him to be the perfect Sun Knight with his brilliant blond hair, blue eyes, and ever-present smile. Then, when he discovered that his captain couldn’t even hold a sword right and wasn’t at all benevolent, he had thought him to be a fraud and a tyrant who didn't live up to his image.
Adair knew better now. Neither view was quite his captain, yet at same time, both were. His captain was much more than the mask he wore -- Adair just didn't know what else was behind that mask. Yet.
He wanted to find out. After all, only after getting to know his captain better would Adair be able to anticipate his captain's every need. Failure to do so was completely unacceptable, especially since he had been appointed vice-captain. It was his duty.
That was why he took to observing his captain carefully, following him like a second shadow.
Some people might even call it...
Stalking.
Actual version to come...? XD Title will change. This is set after Even in Darkness, the Sun Shines.
