xvii: jack of hearts

an update.
 
giles and i have joined henry and eric on their travels. there's no specific destination in mind, just anywhere safe from the lonely hunters and their servants. we won't have a lot, but giles is prepared for anything, henry is a quick thinker, eric is a good fighter, and i'm... here too.

okay, that's a little unfair to myself. i'm... scrappy. and when i'm with giles, i can do anything.

it feels so natural. i'll tell a joke, and giles will just roll his eyes and remind me of how often i told that same joke back in high school, but there'll be a smile on his face that tells me he knows i said it because it reminds me of when we were younger.

it feels so right. and i haven't seen jack in such a long time.

i don't know if this will last forever. i mean, nothing does. but there's no point in looking forward to its end. it's what i have for now, and for now, everything seems to finally make sense.

yours truly,

  1. Oh I missed people like you!

    So clueless, so naïve, so utterly unaware! Ah this site used to be filled with sad saps like you, all pining for their normalcy, for the days of the past, wishing for things to go back to the way they were before, reaching out for anything that might possibly remind them of the good ol' days.

    All at the small expense of a little thing called: "caution". I can't wait until all of this blows up in your face (As these things tend to do) and you're left sitting there, slack-jawed, with only one thought going through your head: "How could this happen to me?" and it will happen my short-sighted friend, mainly because you've already ignored some very questionable variables that had occurred that led you to where you are right now.

    But there is a positive side to your inevitable downfall (Assuming you survive), for the first time in your life, you will be able to choose your path, so do be a pal and keep updating this blog, I'm looking forward to how this all plays out, who knows? Maybe I'm just blowing smoke up your ass, right?
