My Dearest Meteion- Anoirigan's Letter of Confession
By: GonGold Date: October 12, 2022, 1:36 am
---------------------------------------------------------
[b][i]My Dearest Meteion...
I apologize for being a coward about this. I cannot find the
courage yet to say what I am about to say, to your face, but...
hopefully, you will find this letter. I would deliver it myself,
but I have much to do, now that I have my Clariath.
I want to apologize for... any and all miscommunication between
you and I. I owe you an explanation in regards to my words
before the hatching. But I will get to that shortly, I can
assure you. Please, won't you bear with me for a moment more?
You see, I have... well, for lack of a better term, I have a
sour history with the attention of women. Growing up, I
inherited the handsome features of my late father, and it
garnered the attention of many women my age. Even some a tad bit
younger, though it was never my intention. They were simply...
drawn to me. And though I was never rude about it, I felt... as
though I were a slab of meat being prepped for cooking. I felt
seen, but not... seen, if that makes sense at all.
I suppose that what I am trying to say first and foremost, is...
thank you.
While we both have been busy with our respective hatchlings, I
still find myself thinking of you constantly. Thoughts of you
fill my mind, whether I'm training with Clariath, or simply
reflecting upon the day from my quarters. I have been deeply
touched by your friendship, Meteion, but... if I may be bold for
a moment, I wish to speak (that is to say, write) truthfully and
not mince my words a moment longer.
Meteion... I love you.
I know what you may be thinking as you read this. We haven't had
very many conversations with one another, and since our
Impressions, we've been far too busy for idle chatter. But... to
put it simply, I've been so deeply moved by you, and you were
the first to befriend me out of our entire group of Candidates
at the time of our Standing. But it isn't even just about that,
which made me realize these feelings. You were the one to change
my mind about... seeing myself with a woman. Now I know that
seems harsh of me to say, and if I've offended you, I sincerely
apologize. I merely mean because for so long, it was my
appearance that was coveted, and not my heart. But you did not
even mention my looks until after I had complimented you on how
beautiful you are. And you are indeed beautiful. Some may call
you simple, or even boring, but they know nothing. They cannot
see the true beauty that resides within you. Your soul is what I
see. And a beautiful one it is, indeed.
As I move to complete this letter, I find myself... moved to
tears. So pardon the wetness of the parchment, 'twas not my
intention to cry. Clariath and Nami both worry that something is
wrong with me. I am fine, and I have reassured them of such,
but... I weep not from sorrow, but from the joy that comes from
being proved wrong about something that has haunted your mind
since your youth. I hope that this letter of confession does not
come as a bother to you. I hope... that your feelings for me,
are the same as my feelings for you. And if they are not,
please, don't feel as though we cannot remain friends. Even if
you never love me in return, Meteion, I shall always be your
friend.
Ever Sincerely,
Anoirigan.
