Dear. . . [Adults] Part 3

[seraaches]

Dear Sekhmet,

Wot to say? If you get this, it’s because I am no longer here. I’m sure you’ll understand my decision—if you can even call it that—though there will be no warning. I’m sorry for the shock this will cause you, but. . . Wot father could ever choose to kill his son? I pray only that Se will feel the same way towards his father, though I cannot hope too strongly in that regard.

If I am gone, Sek, then you need to be safe. Find safety, keep our children safe, be happy. Live long. I wish I could say. . .

Be happy, Sekhmet.

With my love,
Shinrai

Dear Mnem,

You are a #^*%@. I still respect your skills though I disagree with your methods. And though I’m sure you don’t give a rat’s @##, thanks. Even though we don’t like each other, we sure made some good kids.

Now keep your bloody needles and potions off the unsuspecting fools down at the bar.

Dear Ader,

Well, it was a good run, huh? Time is running short and I still have many things to say and do. Take care of the kids. All of them, really, but especially those I won’t know. Don’t take away their Heart pride, okay? Clubs are all well and good, but there’s a reason Hearts are the top of the food chain.

Heh. The jokes run dry the closer it gets to dawn.

I’ve valued your friendship, Aderlass. It’s been awesome watching you grow in power and take out that #*(%ed bull. I expect you to do the same to anyone else who tries to challenge you.

Hey. Keep a rose around for me.

All my respect,
Shinrai

Dear Elias,

$*%^, this is a lot harder to write than I expected it to be. Light.

I’m sorry. I know that I’ve failed you. I hope you can understand. I bet you will, since you have Silas now. But Silas isn’t Se. I don’t think I ever expected this to happen, but now that it’s looming before me, I can’t say I’m surprised. You probably would have seen it coming a long time ago. Maybe it wouldn’t have changed anything, though.

I don’t know where I missed that turning point to save him. Or myself. I can only hope that this will snap him back into reality.

El, you can’t kill my kid. I couldn’t—I can’t—

Thank you. For everything. Even if it all came crumbling down to nothing. I wouldn’t have made it so far if it weren’t for you. Light, I wouldn’t even be alive. I needed you in my life. Thanks.

I guess that’s it. I see the light dawning and I know that soon Ira will come knocking on my study door. I wish I could see the morning streaming across the Marsh just one more time. If you can, bury me there. I don’t trust anyone else to do it.

El.

I’m sorry.

Awww ; ;

The letter to Mnem made me laugh. XD The ones to Sek and Elias made me do one of those sad smiles.

[Kasatsu]

. . . The one to Ader made my physically burst into tears . . .

[Adds]

O'kay, now that the flood has calmed down *was literally crying her eyes out for a moment*

The one to Mnem amused me to no end XD; Ader is still . . . not dealing well . . . and Elias' was perfect! Poor Rai ; - ;

[Bee]

Aww. Man. The ones to Aderlass and El were sweet and sad; I like that he still tells El not to kill Se. I love how note-like Mnem's is and how it doesn't have an end formality, which speaks volumes in and of itself. XD

[The Jenn]

I giggled my butt off at the one to Mnem, and I thought the one to Elias was so heartfelt. Awesome job, you. <3

Lulz at the letter to Mnem

The rest were just... heartbreakingly sweet ;_; I loved them all. Ader's and Elias's really tear me up ;_;
