Reading this side by side with the English translation (titled Revenge) and realising how much is omitted through editorial streamlining...... at this point I no longer feel like reading Japanese literature in English lol

「彼女にはそうした密やかさがとてもよく似合っていた。色白の肌や、真っすぐで長い髪の毛や、うつむいた時できる目元の陰が、侵しがたい静寂を醸し出していた。」
"The pale skin, the long, straight hair, the shadows under her eyes when she bowed her head — it all lent her a kind of tranquility that I think we didn't want to disturb"
Somehow "shadows under her eyes" in the English translation felt like eyebags LOL. Also I would have translated "didn't want to disturb" as an "inviolable quietness"...
