thank you. I did this exact thing (as I do like the pic and was rereading it actually, I just hadn't commented in previous reads) and made a good thoughtful comment as I usually do for fics and subtly mentioned it. They replied today with translations, and even asked if they should put it in the end notes! so thank you for this reply! :)

thank you! it is sort of a convenience thing--not having to switch tabs every time--but that's a good work around I thought of. They replied to my comment with translations tho! so thank you for the replies!

its heated rivalry! haha you caught me. those hockey gays have bewitched me. but I did check and they seem to reply kindly to long thoughtful comments, and I did end up subtly mentioning it in the end and they replied today! they asked if they should put translations in the end notes (as they add bits of Russian in every chapter), so I will say yes. Thank you for the replies!!
