minus-square@nyctrelinkEnglish4•3 months agoA word for word translation of the french title would be “the beautiful chocolate maker/seller”. Not calling her a chocolate. (Also, I’m assuming that’s hot chocolate that she’s carrying)
minus-square@SpaceNoodlelinkEnglish1•3 months agoIf she’s made of chocolate and she drinks hot chocolate, is she a cannibal or a vampire?
