This morning, I woke up to discover that someone had uploaded a Russian translation of "Let me see through your eyes"*, a short Emil & Lalli genfic that I wrote a few years ago for Trick or Treat exchange. Here: Позволь мне увидеть твоими глазами

Man, I love Ao3's "Related Work" feature. I don't require people to ask before translating; I only ask that translators link to the original when they post their version, and inform me that a translation has been posted, and Ao3 does both of those things at the same time. Efficient!

It looks like the translation was written for Fandom Battle, which is a big Russian multifandom fest-type event where people divide into teams by fandom, and then produce a whole bunch of fanworks for that fandom, posting them anonymously. I'm not entirely sure of the finer details of how it works, but it always seemed like a neat event to me.

Times like this, I wish I could understand Russian...! Not about to put in the effort to learn it, though. Anyway, much love to our friends in RU SSSS fandom. I hope your team wins (?) (not sure how this works). xD <3
