Hi! How’s it going? I’ve been thinking about you nonstop since you left, so I hope it’s okay that I’m sending you a letter already, even though it hasn’t even been two weeks since you left. (...From my perspective, at least. I have no clue how time is moving over there!)
Are you guys okay? Are you getting settled alright? Are things still dark and scary in Eos? I hope you’re staying warm and getting enough to eat... I wish I could send you care packages, or tell you the names of people who would give you shelter, or do literally anything that could actually help you. But at very least I can write to you and let you know how hard I’m rooting for you both. I know if anybody can make an impact in the world, it’s you two.
Lately I’ve been having my lunches in the Tenebrae room, looking out over the scenery. It’s so peaceful. I hope Eos can look that beautiful again someday.
Nothing terribly monumental has happened since you left, it’s just the normal chaos as usual. We still haven’t gotten any newbies, which I’m grateful for. Even though the dorm feels strangely quiet these days, I haven’t been much in the mood for introducing new folks to this place for some reason.
The string of graduations continues, and it looks like the next one to go is me. I’ve been having a surprisingly difficult time coming to terms with the thought of leaving. I’m sure I probably don’t need to tell you what it’s like. [Firefly] is coming with me, and that really helps, otherwise I’d probably be a complete shambles instead of just a hot mess. Senpai is coming with us, too, to my great surprise. We’ve made the decision not to come home, and not to go to anyone else’s home, either. We’re going to make our own home somewhere new.
I know it’s not a decision everyone agrees with, and I hope nobody is too angry or disappointed in me. I want to see what good I can do on the other side. I want to make this place better. I want to lessen people’s suffering if I can, even if it’s just a little, even if I have to make some sacrifices for it. I hope that my wish will help give you some refuge on your journey; I hope I will be able to help you with more than just a letter. I hope so. I admit I’m pretty scared. But I’m going to do my best and try to make myself a better life where [Firefly] and I can be happy.
Once we leave, pep!pep!’s going to be down to just four members. A surprising number of units are dwindling down to nearly half the sizes as they once were... I’ve never seen anything like this before. I wonder if the program is shutting down, or getting ready for a new season? It’s a little disconcerting, to be honest -- although truthfully, probably the fewer who are here, the better.
I’m worried about those I’m leaving behind, though. If you have the time (and ability) to write, I’m sure the others would be relieved to hear from you and know you’re okay.
Anyway. I wanted to give this to you at your graduation, but I wasn’t able to get it off in time. I hope it’s okay to send it to you belatedly in the mail. I hope you know how much of an impact you’ve made on me over the months we’ve known each other. You’re a truly incredible person, and I don’t think I’ve ever been so impressed or so inspired. No matter how much time passes, I will always carry a part of you with me in my heart. So I wanted to send you this, so a part of me will always be with you too.
All my warmest wishes,
Cobalt
[Included in the letter is a cut-off point of an antler, crudely fashioned into some kind of charm. The workmanship is pretty rough; he’s never been good at this kind of thing. But it’s easy to tell there’s a lot of effort put into it, and it’s made with a lot of love.]
