Ah, Rin.
He stares at himself across the span of a decade and thinks, Hold out, you. One day, they'll wake up and smile at you the way they smile at me. It'll come around again - the right time, and it will keep going as it does, but Rin will have all those days you promised.
And then he sends it to Rin to print out. They need it framed somewhere, because Rin looks angelic (always) in their sleep. ]
I believe you're due more than a favour, Nova-Love.
[...]
Thank you.
It's strange, loving them so openly. I forget, sometimes, that I needn't keep silent.
My lovely Rin.
[...]
Let me see what I have of Vitaly. And [...] guard yourself, with him. Be careful. He's a good man, Vitaly is, but he is - his life is - complicated.
And if you've been speaking with him for any length of time, you'll have cottoned on that he falls prey to fits of melancholy and sudden excitations. It isn't to do with his mental health, mind.
He's a soft soul, though. Too kind for his own good. Not like the rest of us. Fucking ironic, is what it is, what with him embodying the hypermasculine Eastern Bloc aesthetic.
[...]
Still searching. Give us a moment.
[ In the end, he sends three photos: the first is Vitaly and Sen standing side-by-side, arms around each other's shoulders; in their free hands, they're each holding bathroom signs. Vitaly is clearly doing this because Sen asked but finding it funny nevertheless; Sen looks elated. The photo gives Nova an idea of how tall Vitaly is; he's nearly even with Sen, but almost twice as broad. (Which isn't saying much, really.)
In the second, his back is to the camera; he's in a pool (?) smoking what is probably a cigar. His back is on full display with all its varying tattoos not quite hiding muscle definition.
The third is recent: Vitaly wheeling a motorcycle along, his hair longer and pushed up with sunglasses; he's looking at the photo with a beleaguered smile as if to say, "Why aren't you fucking helping?"]
There. Now we've reached equilibrium.
You're welcome.

Jesus fucked n jesus wept.
Credit where credit’s due, you know your way to a man’s gratitude. Couldn’t have asked for better, more apt if I’d tried. So there’s my thanks for you set and sealed
And that’s you going above and beyond this day, Mr. Renault, though we’ll call it equilibrium if you please.
Also to say, years after years, you earned your open loving on
RenaultRin, however saccharine or otherwise demonstrative you like it. Good on you, speaking up on itat last. Bit surprised, myself. Might say I’m impressed Been a slow burn, aye, but a pleasing resolution.Grats to both of you, I mean.
[ … ]
I’m seeing that in him, the [ … ] gentleness, that’s a good word for it.
Don’t know’s I’m worried about guarding myself when kindness’s in play. Not much he can do to me I’ve not had before, yeah? And fits ain’t nothing new, same goes with complexities
True be told, I’m a bit worried about him for his own sake, if you can believe that…Asked about Lolly. He did. You know me, can’t help but give the truth of it.
[ … ] Might’ve been a mistaken, suppose that’ll be seen one way or the other
[ … ]
Tall fuckers, the both of you. The arms on this man.
That photo at the pool.
Fuck me running.
no subject
I suppose there’s nothing to worry for on your side; only -
Sometimes a little too noble for my tastes, that one. Vanishes for stretches, bows out of conflict. It’s a wonder, too; put him in a guerilla situation and he’ll tear through like a fucking tank, but socially, Nova. Socially, he’s faint of heart, I believe.
He was married, you know. Now, that part is neither here nor there; she had an exceptionally public affair with Deforest - of all of the cocks in the world, she had to pick the prick.
Bloody mess, all of it. What I know of it, he let her do what she liked after he found out. No quarrel, no divorce. Vanished off the face of the earth, him.
The divorce came much later, though I can’t say I know the outcome. The extravagance of her lifestyle, though - I expect she bled him dry. Took advantage.
Fucking Madeline. Never could stand her.
What I mean here is: he’s passive, Vitaly is. Kindness and passivity open oneself to manipulation. Usage.
But I know you, Nova-Love. I believe you’d be good for him. You are far from passive. Perhaps he’ll take notes.
Ah, and -
Well, no harm in saying.
Verne is himself the reason you’ve never met Vitaly. Last you and Vitaly were in the vicinity of one another, you were involved with Verne; he asked us not to “fuck it all up” for him by letting you have an eyeful of Kozak.
He knew. I suppose we all suspected you might develop an appreciation for Ukraine, if you will.
Don’t be hard on Lolly; he only wanted the entirety of the time he had with you. […] Perhaps don’t mention it to him. He’s been stabbed in the ass with knitting needles and caught squatting in Darius’s apartment. And Nelli and Pippa coming around hopped up on stolen caps. That’s enough to manage.
Has he shown you his dog?
no subject
[ … ]
Could be you’re right and I ought to be careful. Could be that’s a warning I’ve no adeptness for heeding, not that you need telling on that.
Eh, you know me and how I’m daft for a bit of nobility. Rattles at the heart, and thing of it is I’ve seen not an ounce of that faintness from the man at all, or anything that’s started flinching he’s smoothed out.
[ … ]
Fuck me but I think he’s trying.
Know he is, or that’s as I feel it[ … ]
Dodo, aye, cheerful lass she looks, beautiful pup just as goofy as they come. He told me it, how he found her, cleaned her up took her home. [ … ] Saw him in the photos with her, and the way he’s smiled I can believe it when you say she’s one of the few he likes (Don’t know about the causes, haven’t got there yet) You met her?
[ … ]
For that other matter [ … ] Happens your message came at a propitious time. Put some pieces to place, and I appreciate the fuller view. Appreciate you, Senan
[ … ]
Vitaly and eh [ … ] Madeline. How long was it they were married and like. Or maybe my meaning’s when’d they split? Doesn’t matter so much and I can ask him myself, come to that. You’ve spoke of her before, yeah? Or someone did within my hearing, can’t say I’ve clear recollections. Can say I’m developing a fast binding ire toward her, to the surprise of not one body in this chat. Can say it sounds as if she warrants it.
Clear fucking mess, all of that
Jesus it’d do a number on a man, fuckin spiteful sounds like, and Scarface’s brother of as you say, all the pricks. Something I'd like to know, hypothetically speaking as I warrant there’s no answer beyond familial obligations is how that weaselfuck goes on living.
[ … ]
Gonna strangle Lolly next I see him, is what I'm like to do. Not that I've a chance at getting my hands around that tractless neck of his
Nor that I can keep ireful at him for long. Never could do, nor would want to. Verne’s right enough, mardy twonk that he is. And credit to him, he wasnt half wrong about my regarding Vitaly, not that I mean to mention what’s bygone Remains that the least he could do’s keep the twins off yourself :/
Fuck is this goin on about the needles? Your Rin stab the man or what?
Related, seems I’m on the hook for pullin a hat from my arse before I hit New York. Fair enough and I should’ve done it years since. Got a thought to follow up on, see how this turns
no subject
Vitaly or no Vitaly, stay well clear of her. She'll take any opportunity to fuck with you simply because the fucking's available. Thinks it's funny, I expect.
[...]
The needles? No, he fell on them during a scuffle with Enri and Blake. I wouldn't put it past Rin to have turned them sharp-end-up, though.
Verne should thank all his lucky stars those weren't my mum's.
[...]
Fuck me, if he's shown you the dog already, he's interested. Even if you didn't twig to any faintness, surely you've noted he's a private person. Moreso than most any of us, I should think. I couldn't say for certain as one can't know what one doesn't know.
Well. Good. The both of you deserve some enjoyable company.
[...]
If you can't find a hat, I have a cache of them. You can owe me instead of them, which is - you'll agree - far preferable.
no subject
[ … ]
Did she have any kind of feelings to begin, dyou think, or was it all only a show ofFucking six months, that’s really all it took her to[ … ]
Claws seems like a descriptor for what she is, that’s so. A snake, that as well. The wonder of it isn’t she didn’t go marrying Deforest. Sounds like two peas nestled in a pod. Or might be they’d risk culling one another.
…Fking. Aren’t any odds she’d be at the wedding or the gathering before, yeah?
[ … ]
If it’d been your mum’s needles, think we can be sure Lolly would’ve run for cover, never to be glimpsed again. Last I checked your ire’s about the only thing he’s wary of, and even he knows your esteem for her.
Added to which, likely he’d’ve impaled himself on those needles. Impressive set she had, and you have now. Like to tear a man's arsecheek in two.
Might need to take you up on raiding that cache, by the by. Going to see what I can manage hereabouts, but you’ve the right of it: I’ll trade off owing Rin for owing you, simple as. Think on what it is you’d ask, I’ll see to providing
[ … ]
Vitaly. I’ve got a sense of his eh discreteness. He’s spoke of it
and can’t say I fault him for it an ounce. I think there’s [ … ] a lot for telling that’s maybe not been told.His to tell, but [ … ] I’m worried for him. About him, for him, bothAnyrate, think it’s safe to say there’s interest, aye.
Trouble isSee but the fuck of itIt’s his to tell about, but jesus shitePrivate he may be, but the man’s been naught short of engaging, and he’s got me speaking in missives.no subject
[...]
Strange, to see you readily fixate on hating someone you haven't met. Strange how your messages about Vitaly seem noticeably abbreviated, particularly when you're speaking in missives TO him.
Did he tell you something interesting, Nova-Love? Are you already keeping secrets for the man? Oh, you are enamored.
[...]
Here, now. Does he know about your flotation device, or is that a telling for later? (How's that healing up?)
More pressing: Did he mention Iryna?
Fuck me, a busier body there never was. [...]
[...]
Did he happen to say anything that might suggest he knows something about yours truly and his sister? I've barely talked to the man in several years and I'm not certain whether it's because of his exile-by-Darius or the finding out of certain things better left unmentioned.
I try not to involve myself with the family of friends, but she's very tall, you see.
And despotic.
Leggy fucking tyrant, her.
No fuck has terrified me more, and no discovery of said fuck would be more unwelcome.
You watch out for that one's hands, as well, should he put you in proximity. She managed my wallet, Nova, and stands yet as the only person to ever to do so.
I may be getting ahead of the pair of you, but you can't be warned quickly enough.
[...]
Serious note, then.
I hope all goes well, Nova-Love. You'll both be hard-pressed to find a better man.
[...]
What with me off the table.
no subject
Eh. Not got much in there to begin with. Still’s good for knowing, case it turns up absent and I’m losing my mind around its whereabouts.
I’d argue against you saying a busier body’s never been, or at least I’d say you’ve an equal in that name and happens you’ve married em. That’s you and Rin, bona fide power couple among the busybodies, more’s the credit to you both.
…What was it did it. Got you speaking your fondness for them at last?
Might be not unrelated. Glad you got yrself out that sentence and in with that new found liver.
Keep those stitches sound, chrissake.
For my dick, it’s good and healed by this point. Does its job and gives it pleasure. Been fortunate in it, and I’m not like to forget.’ Flotation device’ though fuck off with yrself, I say rolling my eyes all fondness. Fuck of a scar it left behind. Couldn’t sit right for weeks, but was bettern mangling through with a fucked arm. Wasn’t out so long from commission this way.
He knows about it. Told him of it, slipped a bit of suggestion and he followed up. Seems interested in earnest which [ … ] ain’t the norm, I’ll say as much.
Think he might be curious, with an apart from that interest, and I’ve got no sense the man’s, eh, deterred. Warms my heart truth be told.
Saying also, enamored’s a word for what I am, aye.
A better than apt one, come to that. Speaks from the soul, this man does.
[ … ]
We’re sure this man’s real and not my dreamt up figment?
Full on wondrous, he is.
Vitaly. I’m clarifying as if there’re any question.
For thine own sake, what I’ll say’s his somethings interesting haven’t had a word to do with any involvement of family with friends. Hasn’t mentioned you beyond what’s tangential, nay, and I’ve no sense he’s got a rage against you.
He did mention his sister’s a handful, that’s a truth. I’m not about to speak a word you’ve said but eh, he asks toward the matter, it’s no secret, you get me? Might almost think you want him knowing, telling me as you’ve done, knowing I’m exchanged in missives with the man and knowing I’m abhorrent with a secret if I’m asked.
Can’t see him holding it against you. Now you’re with Rin fully and it sounds his sister’s on about her living.
You and your despots, ay Senan?
1/2
What got me speaking to Rin? Dying will do it. No motivating factor to bite a bullet than knowing it won’t matter one way or another.
And they kissed me.
At 7:34, matter of coincidence.
Funny how determined to live I became when I realized it wasn’t an unrequited sentiment.
They steal the blankets, you know. They snore (but I already was quite aware of that.) They hide tomatoes for being liars. They require an eternal audience and praise to thrive in their happiness. There are teeth all over the flat, god knows where from.
They nag me, Nova.
What I mean here is that I’ve probably died. This is my heaven. They can have the blankets; I get to sleep in their bed. Fuck tomatoes, they’re all flavorless, genetically-altered monstrosities anyhow. I adore Rin’s dramatics and have more praise for them than I could ever speak. Teeth are easily procured.
I think the nagging is precious.
I’ll give them anything they want, do all they ask - because all I’ve ever wanted is to love them.
Forgive me this moment of crassness, but my god, they are energetic. With a perfect body, I‘ll note, which would be remarkable if they were aging at all, which they are not.
Related: the stitches come out at last on Tuesday. Popped the fucking things twice because - well, no fault of Rin’s.
My own fault for not bracing properly.
You did ask.
2/2
I’m unconcerned that he’ll discover my misadventure. It’s been so long now, he won’t fault me. I’m concerned about whether a grudge is being held, but it seems not.
It’s unsurprising that he isn’t bothered by your situation. He’s dated along the spectrum before. You may be the first who’s had bottom surgery. I can’t recall about Leo; do you remember him?
Fucking shock he married a woman. Vitaly, I mean. He does all right with them, but he clearly has his preference.
And clearly that preference is narrowed to one man, given how unsubtle he’s been in asking about you. Picture, if I’d be so kind. Do I know a good restaurant you’d enjoy. Your feelings about children, dogs, Russia, pastries. If you’re well and good with taking time to get to know one another.
I told him to ask you himself. You’re a big boy. You can handle anything he throws at you.
He finally broke and asked if he was your type, because you haven’t seen him in person and good lord, the outpouring of nerves.
Asked me what he ought to wear “for Nova” as though I have any sense of fashion at all.
It’s almost adorable.
“Enamored” is an apt word, Nova-Love.
And yes, he is quite real, with a plenitude of flaws to accompany his wondrousness.
Glad to hear you’ve healed up. I wish I could have been there to be an assist, but I doubt it was good enough a reason to request clemency.
I am sorry, though.
Verne and the girls were with you?
no subject
Knew what I was in for in asking, and not a regret to be had. It’s good hearing yr expounding, now given this tenor of fulfillment.
7:34, no codding? Nay, but I believe it easy, always was something enchanted in the two of you. Couldn’t’ve happen to a better man nor null.
Rin wouldn’t be themself if they weren’t stealing the blankets on top of every other thing they lay hands on. Gives me an idea where to get that hat, come to think it. Eh, and got to say those’re harsh words for the humble tomat, though it explains them throwin that one when I gave it them.
Guess this means you’re Pasta Alfredo for life, hey? Tomato being off the grid’s limits.
Name Leo’s ringing no bells. Which was that? Eh, but what with Vitaly’s queries and the framings thereof, thinking he’s not had witness with the like before.
[ … ]
Could be I’ve gone expansive in my speaking to meet your match, like for like word for word and all that. Nah, but I’ve been inspirited. By that self same man’s been growing bolder but never the less careful, or it’s a kind of tact dealt with consideration’s crux. Flaws he might and must have, whomst among us and I’ve got mine own foibles to be accounted for, snoring and all.
(Good knowing that ain’t only myself, by the by. Not saying a word of one null’s snore or any other to one soul or any other, secrets being secrets, and this one being yours for them.)
Man’s not had an easy life as I’m understanding. Not that he makes a point dwelling on it. Not that it’s unusual, an unsteady life’s path among the circle of shitheads.
She did a number onFucking vile, she is.There’s a mighty heart within that mightily broad chest, and there’s life he’s got in holding, waiting its chance for breath.Life, vivacity, aye.For myself, it’s getting beyond enamored to fully attached.
You met his parents at all?
Also to say, fuck if his asking those questions don’t charm me through and through, and my blessings to you Sir Senan for fielding this all. Patient as a bona fide owl, you. You happen to tell him just how much my type he is? Told him myself, or I’m in process of conveying, only trouble is there aren’t words enough to say it, or I don’t have em rightly.
And for a sharp change in subject matter, ey ey, fuck you mean my dick’s no good cause for reduced sentencing??
Nah. Chrissake, I’m only sorry myself I wasn’t better up on the letter writing.
Got mithered and then some thinkin on all of it. Wasn’t sure I’d see youNot any kind of excuse, that, and you’ve ever been a lasting one, matters of the liver asideThe girls were there more or less throughout, aye, and Verne when he was able. (Maungey shite takes good care when he has a mind to, credit to him and likely I ought to be easier on him about the current situation with the twins.) Roza was in and out as well, bless her for it. Ey, you know she married? Recently, half a year back or so.
That husband of hers is a good one, truth, spent some days with the both of em and I couldn’t ask better for her than him, I’m thinking.
[ … ]
Still, happens I’ve found a better man.
[ … ]
He called them my kids, Sen. Nicky and Liza. No prompting just took it on himself and spoke it. That alone did me in, doubt I need to tell why or just how far off the cliff it dropped me.
Happens I’m growing lucky in my middling age. Aye, well may wonders never cease.
no subject
[...]
Vitaly and your kids. That one's no surprise. He's remarkably...liberal doesn't precisely cover things, does it? Moralistic, perhaps. Right-minded. Those are your fucking kids, after all. You did right by them. Forgive the assessment, but if there was a cunt in your generation, it was your brother-that-was.
[...]
Could be I miss them. Roza, as well. I'm glad to hear she's happy off. You know she did write? Not often, only once or twice. Sent your love. I assumed collaboration and will continue to do so.
Truth be told, I returned most of the received letters unopened anyhow. Only Rin's -
I couldn't ignore Rin if I tried. If I'd returned their letters, they'd have marched up to the fucking penitentiary wall and screamed their head off.
[...]
Vitaly. Right.
Poor bastard deserves a little good; if you're so enamored with him, could be you'll be good for him, you being the social little butterfly you are.
I suspect he's been so reticent with us all because he thinks Darius is still angry with him. This is how it goes. Our little queen bee loses his fucking mind and runs off Vitaly, or Vitaly finally screws up the nerve to bite back and Darius runs him off anyhow, it takes months of coaxing just to get a response.
Well. How it did go.
Darius -
Fuck me, Nova, I've never seen him like this. Enri's been nothing short of miraculous.
[...]
I told him.
Darius. I told him. If you even remember what it was that I -
Actually, you were decidedly not on this planet at the time.
We share the same genetic donor in the form of Darcy. You know if I'd told him that years ago, he might have stabbed me.
He cried on me and told me I was tall for a Scarlett. How's that for a mindfuck?
It's been like this for a year. Sobriety for some six months - the longest I've ever seen. He went to rehab because Enri asked. (Enri leveled an ultimatum is what he did. Said he'd leave if Darius didn't go, so off Darius went and hasn't looked back.)
I think Vitaly's more apt to keep close now, between Darius's new leaf and this attachment the pair of you are forming.
I assure you, it's not even slightly one-sided, and yes, I did tell him he's very much your type.
Knowing how he would've reacted, I did not go into particulars about the intersection between your 'type' and your interests in bed. You ought to let him know. He's like to be gentle otherwise.
If he hurt a fly without a good reason, he'd self-flagellate until it rose up again and told him to give it a rest.
[...]
Just how enamored, would you say?
I ask for myself, not for him.
Also - did he message you first, or you him?

Hard to recognize the man as you’re describing. Queen bee, Scarface the Destroyer, him.
TalikVitaly mentioned the sobriety. Didn’t know how true it was, him having been out the loop and all. (Don’t know so much about how them two know each other. Vitaly and Darius, I mean. Been havin more pressing discussions, no time for that as yet.) Hadn’t heard it was Enri led him to itGood for him? Both of em? Aye I mean that, just takin it all in. Him bein with anyone long terms a shock of its own, though from the sounds of all that shock’s naught but favourable
It going well, the wake of you telling him? Sounds the revealing went all right, or all right’s a mild way for putting it and the little warlord cried against you?? Fuck me, but the world’s going the right kind of strange at last
Hope all’s well, is what I mean. Sounds it is. Sounds as if this Enri’s something new entirely, and bless him for it
[ … ]
I’d say lot’s changing, but truth told it feels more a lot’s finding where it always meant to be. You and Rin. (You and a functioning liver, fuck’s sake. …Well. Me and my dick, that too.) Darius and a Puppy for keeping.
[ … ]
Myself and Vitaly, maybe that, as well.
How enamoured I am is [ … ] [ … ]
Aye, fuck me, it’s tough for putting into words, or more I can’t find where to start when there’s a thousand things for saying. Here, put it this way. He offered up a nickname for myself, and I took it, like it just as well as my own name. Showed him those photos from fuckever the name that pub was, myself getting grabbed by the bouncer. Told him I’d like him to meet Roza. The kids as well
if I evershould they ever[ … ] someday. I’m speaking with his sister? (Aye, you know the very one. And Vitaly knows, by the by, what went on thuswise.) Saw his family via vid, and find I’d like to meet em.I’d leave this place to follow him anywhere at all, that’s a certainty.
The fact is, Senan, there’s no one and nothing I’ve felt this way for before. I admire him on top of all else, and there’s no heart I like better.
Aye, he’s not so faint there, speaking social or otherwise. Think it’s that he’s [ … ] had not much for holding onto, get me? More force that is significantly more force pushing down on him than giving any chance for catching breath.
[ … ]
Got a request for you.
Got an entreats, is more like.
Keep hush about all this for now, hey? About Vitaly and I and whatever’s between the two of us.
Won’t be for always, just, eh, initial safety’s sake. Simple way of putting it, any word makes it’s way to Madeline could stir shit doesn’t need stirring, and we know word has its way of getting around.
I don’t want to be causing trouble for him, Senan. So aye, keep this one between you and I, just til I tell you or he tells you otherwise, and I’ll work out a bribe for you.
Eh, those fkin Lays for sure, but something more than that as well. Not to say you need bribing, just. Fk. Keeping cautious.
Thank you, Sen, right from the bottom of my heart.

No, never did find him. Closest we came was a hotel room he had occupied only a few hours beforehand.

It's one of those things, Nova-Love, that seem to become less important as the years progress. The man extricated himself from our lives; we can be excused for soldiering on happily without him.
2/3
Much as it pains me to recount my personal failings, when have you ever known me to lie convincingly? The secrets I keep, I have done so because I've never been asked directly. This is why I've told you repeatedly not to share crucial information with me.
I'm not sure why anyone believed a word I said in that courtroom. A confluence of good luck, perhaps, or because it was Rin, and I would have shot the fucker for them, I truly would've.
Keep her away from me is all I'm saying. I won't make a point of telling her, but she knows me, Nova. She knows if anyone knows what you and Vitaly are about, and also if anyone is incapable of prevarication, I am the intersection in a Venn Diagram.

God's green aegis willing, it's nothing lasting much longer a time. Nothing he ought to've borne so long as is, but then I'm gleaning you're aware.

He knows about you and Darius now, or that still kept in hush?
Regardless. Beginning to think I might need to bribe Lolly to keep after you, drag you off bodily as need decides, or else ask Rin for running interference. Maybe not the worst approach, there. Get them going and she'll have no word edgewise to ask
Didn't realize you knew the ketty wank of a woman she is. My mistake not asking ahead of my effusions, true, but ey fuck me if what I'm feeling don't need voicing, even to Burn Bridge's most indiscreet son

Speaking of, you know I'd not survive a day as step father to you, the rings you'd run around me and the shite you'dve pulled

He's got a son. There's news. I suppose you're stepfather material, after all.No, he doesn't know yet. I'll tell him, but I'd like to decide who else ought to be brought into the know of the family shame, or if I should just let it be a matter of public interest.

And yes, she was a saint and I won't hear otherwise. [...]
I do [...] miss her.
Odd moment to begin missing my mum more poignantly than usual, but [...] when else should one miss a good woman if not at odd hours?
She would be disgustingly proud of you, you realize.

Fair's also fair, whilst you may not've anticipated that interest in your coauthor's cock or and every other part of him, might've seen this one coming a day or few ago.
Said he enjoyed working with you, ftr. Nor did he elaborate, left it yours to tell or otherwise.
Far as errant cucumbers go, wouldn't count on any shame from my front. Vegetables is vegetables, no crimes to be named. That said I ain't about to tell Rin, particularly seeing as I'm working on regaining a good grace or two of theirs, and any case it's yours to tell as wherewithal permits and sound sense advises.
Man of mystery you are, Senan, and that's a fact.
Aye well. Man of mystery, son to a saint and I'd not dare nor dream to call her different.
You writing that book and speaking your thoughts to Rin. You carrying on through all the tangles and what your liver set against you. She always was proud of you, and'd be prouder still on the daily.
[ ... ]
Got me sobered and half myself toward tears, what you said. [ ... ] Her being proud, fuck you very much and aye, my thanks.
I'll be visiting her tomorrow. Anything particular you want said?
I'd give my apologies stirring up absence of an hour this sort, but she's a woman asks remembering, aye, and I can't think you mind it so much. [ ... ] There are some well worth the pains of missing, that's so.

Finding more n more there's naught wrong in my dislike for that Madeline, even if dislike's putting it weakish. Wasn't fucking about from the start, was she?
Jesus.
[ ... ]
Fucks me off, what she took from him. Took to grinding down beneath her heel, but it's not end, that, and the sounds say she'll be over soon. He's speaking with with Darius (fuck me, your brother after all, fits right into sense if I'm being honest and I'd imagine anyone knows the pair of you'd say similar), got to think that's leading somewhere toward solution.
Fingers crossed and sights set, anyrate, and I swear to you Senan the man's a wonder to behold. Eh, aye, visually speaking and beyond as well, far beyond. Never seen a soul I better liked, nor a heart more toward my keeping.
[ ... ]
Didn't realize he's got such a name for himself.
Thing of it is, there's nothing in him makes me feel unready, and nowhere I'd not go for him. So there's that for that.

Tell her I'll be 'round to see her soon.Tell her I'm not likely to see her for another twenty or so; seems I'll have to remain walking this earth a while yet. But I've married Rin and I'm happy.
And Rin misses her, likewise.
[...]
Fuck, I miss her. Might've said as much a thousand times before. For all the shite parenting in the world - for all that I had one absentee cunt of a father - I was lucky to have her.
I knew it, too, Nova-Love. Knew it and told her until she was sick of hearing it.
I have been remarkably fortunate in family and friends.
[...]
Or tell her I'm still a mardy arse - per the countless times I was called such for brooding over unrequited love.
Whatever suits the moment. Don't forget the moggy, though.
