Good day~ ^^
I've heard this 2 sentence and would like to ask anyone who can help whether my interpretation is correct or not.
1) 優しくしてあげるから、いい?
2) 君を一口だけ。パクッ

My interpretation is this:
1) I'll treat you gently, is it okay?
(ps: would it be better to translate is as I'll be gentle or I'll treat you gently?)
2) I'm just going to take a bite. Bite~

Can anyone help? Thank you in advance for your time :)
 
1) Using "gently" is closer to the original. I think instead of "is it okay?" just "okay?" would be better, but you've got the idea.

2) If the speaker is talking to the food as if it were a person, yes, that looks right.
 
Thank you so very much! I have one more question though if you don't mind ^^

the [ 優しくしてあげるから ], does it refer that the person would treat the other person gently, or do something in a gentle way?
It might mean the same, but I guess what I'm asking is whether you said this when you're about to do something or it isn't always like that?

Thanks again for your answer :))
 
These sentences carry more than a hint of promiscuous, playful flirtation. Taken separately and in certain context, they could have different, innocent and completely non-salacious meanings, but since you have the two together it seems obvious that the two are part of a solicitation (or, invitation, if you like).

1. I'll go easy on you, OK? or, I'll be gentle with you, OK? Both of your interpretations are possible, but if my presumption is correct and the writer is trying to coerce the reader into the bedroom, the not-so-subtle suggestion is that the writer will be gentle in bed (or, "do something in a gentle way" as you say). It is not a general promise of eternal gentleness.
2. The person isn't talking to the food as if it were a person. It is the other way around. Taken literally it means "I just want to take a bite", and in an erotic context that translation works. Anyway, the implication is that the speaker/writer is looking for a little fun ("Just give me a little taste" kind of thing).

Ahh, to be young again.

Probably Majestic-san's interpretation is correct. I think the OP would quote the conversation from a game, as she once did in this forum. But the situation the speaker is talking to the food like that can be possible(personification) especially in manga or anime, as Glenn-san interpreted. (おいしそうなケーキちゃん、一口あなたを食べさせてね。パクッ。)
 
Ah, yes! this is a quote from a game I'm trying to translate haha. Thank you very much to Majestic-san for your detailed explanation, as I have a really hard time getting what the sentence really meant. And thank you again Toritoribe-san for always helping me~ ^^
