Cerulean Planet [浅蓝惑星]

“Cerulean Planet” is a story that I have read many times and one that I hold close to my heart. It probably won’t have as large an audience in the English danmei fandom by virtue of the subject matter, but it’s a story that I find incredibly moving and romantic in its own way.
Even though the story itself is quite short, it took me a long time to translate and edit the chapters to my satisfaction. I made some intentional decisions in the translation of this text, including the use of “they” when referring to the monster, as well as giving them a slightly too formal (almost inhuman) way of speaking, even after the monster became “more human.”
