Downton Abbey, Anna/Bates.
Rating: T.
Spoilers up to chapter 2x08.

This is my first fanfic so far, and english is not my language so, paraphrasing Anna's words, this will be really an adventure. I love these two characters and their love story, so I've tried to imagine what will happen to them until Christmas. If you have not watched the episode 2x08 ( Read more... )

Thank you very much. I enjoy your stories very much, yours and PBCD are my favourites, I think.
I tried to make explicit scenes... but I couldn't. I write it first in spanish and then I translate it. Sex sounds stronger in spanish than in english, I think (or maybe our own language makes things real, and another language makes them fiction).
I'll try to post next chapter this week. I appreciate your critics and encouragement!

Well, about reading in other languages... I remember reading some very explicit fanfic about Battlestar Galactica a couple of years ago. I liked it very much and I began to translate it for myself. It sounded so... wrong! I had to leave that idea.

Wonderful first fic! :-)

I really liked this- intimate without needing so many words. :-)

I'm always awed by people who can write so well in a language not their own- bravo!
We expect more from you now! ;-)

One query- I realise it's a translation thing, but what do you mean by "Look, you have to drop also these hooves on the front"? :-)

Thank you! I've tried my best :)

The sentence you say was wrong. I didnt know how to say the exact word in english, so I asked google... bad idea. So I've put an easier sentence: "Look, you also have to undo these clips on the front."

I appreciate very much this kind of corrections, I really need them.

Next chapter in some days :)

Ahhhhhh, that makes more sense. I figured it was something about fasteners, but wasn't sure. ;-)

Yeah, google and babelfish and such are good...up to a point! ;-)

¡Prima! ¿No ves que arriba pone bien grande Spoilers up to chapter 2x08?
Las fic estaban detrás de un Cut las dos, que funcionó un día y al día siguiente no funcionaban. Lo volveré a intentar. Pero vamos, que lo primero que pone son los spoilers :D
