[Dragonmail: Nova ~~Kyleor~~ ~~Kyleand??~~ Kylethe!]

Dear Nova!!

I am so sorry this has come to you so late but there was the whole deal with Iravati and there was an assassin and explosions and also I moved and people from Zenderael appearing everywhere and I had to make snacks!!

Also I forgot for a while after that.

But your potion was useful against the assassin thank you!

I am sorry about the cake, it would have been very nice after that potion! It was thoughtful of you to include it!

I finally got around to finishing your gift. Please enjoy! ♥

[The dragon comes carrying a doom rabbit plush with a zipper for a mouth. If he unzips it, he'll find a bag of cookies.]

[Both are perfectly normal, actually.]

[Signed: Missie♥]

PS: Be sure to give him a name. A good one! It's no good if you didn't put some thought into it.

[what-- oh, it's Missie. This is slightly cheering, for some stupid reason]

Did that potion really help you against an assassin? [omz this toy has surprise cookies. Does he dare try one? Possibly. It's been that kind of day. He already had a few of his own from when he was trying to feed Artemis, though.

Maybe he'll at least try to find out what's in them]

I ate one of your cookies. Is anything weird going to happen to me?

Um. A little!
It ruined her make up and probably gave her a dehydration headache, anyway! [And those thoughts are enough to sate Missie's vengeful urges.]

[Cookie may contain: chocolate chips. DEADLY if Nova were a dog.]

Well. Maybe! [Those statements don't have to be read as related right.] A lot of weird things happen! It'd be more fun if people turned into things though.

Like giraffes.

What's a giraffe?

[Missie submits her answer in the form of a crude, child-like drawing.]

[She has taped about four pieces of parchment together for the length of the neck itself.]

Oh. [that looks like a really interesting animal!]

I hate giraffes, then.

[If that was reverse psychology it works because there are like 800 giraffes drawn on her next mail.]

[Most of them have silly hats and they surround a giant heart with "WE LOVE NOVA" written in it.]

[holy shit giraffes

He is taking these drawings at face value, too, clearly this is what they really look like]

Why don't those long necks snap?

Because they're flexible.

[BLATANT LIES but an excuse to draw a giraffe with a curly straw neck.]

That's unsettling.

What did you do to cross an assassin? [other than be a player]

Being a player, I think.

I don't know. It was traumatic! I can't remember the details. But I'm sure she could have asked nicely and gotten the information. Instead she stabbed me!

Even if she asks nicely I'm never helping her with anything now.

[Someone is still a little bitter. :|;]

I bet Iravati wouldn't stab me unless it was a last resort.

She even stabbed you? Who is this person?

By the way, I've acquired Iravati as a boarder. You forgot to give her a home!

An assassin!

Oh. Sorry, my bad! ♥ But now you get to live together. That must be fun!

It's not a tiny little mistake!

...

It is, a little, but you get no credit.

But everything's working out just fine, isn't it? ♥

Iravati's the one that decided it, right? I'm proud of her!

I fell for that routine the first time, but not anymore.

You're careless, you're not a good player at all.

Oh! You thought I was, once? That's actually very kind of you!

No, I'm not good at all. I only just started. Some people have been doing this for years. Iravati was my first, and I needed a lot of hand holding to write her.

It was fun. I wish I could make another, but that's not how it works anymore with them coming to life and all.

Oh well!

So Heimdall helped write her?

Everybody helps everybody!

It's a group activity. It's not like writing by yourself! I think? Um it's hard to explain.

Everyone Iravati met helped write her, even if they weren't players at all.

It's not that complicated. I understand.

People are shaped by whoever they meet.

Yeah! I hadn't thought of it like that. That's a good way of putting it.

Of course it's a good way of putting it. I have a very strong grasp of the situation with players.

I still don't really get it myself.

You should tell me about it sometime!
