| If she asks for translation, that's because she think's it would be helpful for the RP ^^
According to me, you can't force people to be "all english" like that.
And I was doing the same reflexion to myself, it would be better with the french translation =) Maybe into a spoiler, so that the ones who does'nt want to see the french part won't face it. | |
