To my...

To my Taci,

If you’re reading this, then I didn’t come back. Now, if you are reading this, and I DID come back, then stop reading this stupid thing, burn it, and be with me, idiot.

With that out of the way, Athina will give you this note if I don’t come back. Not that I plan to, not in the slightest at all, and I will make a skewer out of that damned dragon, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it is to have contingencies. I don’t want to say all of my hopes and dreams here, no, because I already plan on telling you in person, and I want to live all of my life with you anyway, so repeating it here is pointless.

Instead, I’ll just say this. Be happy! Do what you love, as you please. That is all I will ask of you, not as some title, but as me!

Thank you for calling me out when I needed it. Thank you for being the shoulder I leaned on. Thank you for all of the play-fights and warm nights. And,

I love you. Ah, I felt my heart flutter writing that. How do you do this letter-writing thing so easily?

I love watching you write, so I wanted to try my hand at it. I hope I did well.

I’ll see you in the morning, Taci.
