So I've done it again xD Picked up a short danmei story about an orca and a humpback whale to translate on impulse because it was sooooo cute, plus the author was very educational with their orca fun facts + notes chapter and support for animal rights.

Also it's a platonic love story! Even more my thing!

(Initially had another Emperor & Crown Prince story in mind from Lofter and even asked the author for permission, but it turns out that that it wasn't finished yet LOL gotta be patient... but \o/ more food for me!!!!!)

Anyway!

So this is a free webnovel on changpei from 2018. A short, easy read and quite charming.

I'm mostly done with the 'first pass' translation for the main story, but as that is just me with TTS and some light editing, there is much more rephrasing and editing before it's in a fit state to be seen. That being said! I'm looking for anyone who is free in late July or August and willing to beta this TL.
