I hope that I've spelled your name correctly. You only told it to me once, but it stuck with me, as a name befitting someone of a queenly nature perhaps, so I am hoping that my assumption that it is "Reina" and not "Rayna" is not unfounded.
It has been many weeks since you last visited me. (At least, that is what I assume, as I am in fact unable to know how many days have passed in my current environment.)
But I remember your face clearly, and I would appreciate it very much if you would come visit me again. I think there are many things that we could bond over. You seem like an interesting person, and my life is currently completely devoid of interesting people. Not to mention, your scent sticks with me as the kind of scent that I would like to get a whiff of once more.
Perhaps you'll even come into the cell with me again, like last time. That was enjoyable.
You spelled my name correctly, thank you. Most people don't ask.
It has been several months since we last saw each other. I would love to visit you again sometime soon, but it seems that right now it's a little unsafe. I'm surprised to have gotten a letter from you like this, but I appreciate it.
How are you doing? How are they treating you? Are you feeling healthy? Are they hydrating you? Do you want me to send you anything in the post?
I believe they open all packages for you, however, so don't try to be cute with your requests. I hope to hear from you soon, Egret.
This is Max! As in, Maxwell Brown Max. Maybe I'm the only Max you know though!
The postman seems to be super actively promoting pen pal-ism lately...I think he's bored! So I thought I'd write you a letter, even though we live in the same town. Writing a letter to someone you could easily just walk down the street and visit in person is all the rage here in Haddow right now, it seems!
How are you doing? I hope you're settled into Rupert's okay! I've already gotten pretty used to this place, I think. In fact, I've already memorized where all the good pubs are! We ought to go to one together! Maybe we can get Rupert to drink something too.
If things ever get awkward at Rupert's house for whatever reason, feel free to stay with me! I've got enough space.
The days are getting chillier. Make sure to keep warm. Take care of yourself.
You're the only Max I know, so you can relax. I don't think I'll ever know another Max, although maybe that's a strange thought. I don't think other Max's could be quite like you.
I noticed that about the post man too so we shouldn't disappoint him! It's nice when people take their work seriously.
Living with Rupert has been going very well. Being his roommate isn't so bad. Actually, I really enjoy it. It's kind of like the old days, only this time I have my own room and I'm not robbing him of the use of his couch in the mornings, or breaking in through windows (although sometimes I do that anyways).
I'll let you know if I manage to overstay my welcome with him. He can be so polite... It's lucky for him though, all of his politeness comes off so sincere that I honestly don't know what he's thinking most of the time! Sometimes I think it's better that way, although he's a little predictable with how he usually just does the "good" and "just" thing.
How are you adjusting to this city? I really like it here. It reminds me a lot of how Mars was, and maybe the more seedy parts of London. I'm glad you're here though. I was fully expecting it to just be the ones I came with.
It makes me wonder what sort of place it really is though... why were we all brought to one seemingly random place like Haddow?
This is Officer Rupert Brown, writing to you on behalf of the Haddow City Police Department.
That's just how I'm used to starting all letters, sorry. I'm sure there's a less stuffy way to do it than that. I suppose "Hi, it's Rupert" would do. But... I feel like I need to retain that layer of professionalism!
I hope that you are enjoying my home decently enough. It isn't anything special, and I'm still just getting used to it myself, but it's of a comfortable size and my roommates are friendly, so hopefully it's to your liking.
I apologize for not spending as much time with you as you seem to want me to. It's not that I don't enjoy your company... on the contrary, I find you to be quite pleasant to be around. It's just that I'm a bit shy, and of course constantly busy with work and everything. Though as you've already told me, I'm probably just putting more work on myself than I have to...
What's your favorite kind of vegetable? I was thinking of starting a vegetable garden with the empty space outside in the back. If there's something in particular you'd want to harvest, please tell me and I can buy the seeds for it. I'll ask Kazuma too (though I get the feeling he won't answer until he knows what you chose).
If there's something you'd like to do or someplace you'd like to go on the weekends, please tell me. I'm very bad at thinking of ideas on my own, but I do want to be more social.
This letter has gotten long! I'm very sorry! But I look forward to your reply.
Sincerely, Officer Rupert Brown Haddow City Police Department
I AM WRITING THIS LETTER TO PRACTICE THE WAYS OF YOUR SPECIES' ARCHAIC COMMUNICATION METHODS. WHEN EVER WILL YOU LEARN THAT THIS TOOL YOU CALL A "PENCIL" IS COMPLETELY MEANINGLESS WHEN THERE IS NO PENCIL SHARPENER NEARBY? I HAVE ALREADY LEARNED THIS THE HARD WAY, AFTER BREAKING AT LEAST THIRTEEN PENCILS TO WRITE THIS. I HAVE BAD LUCK.
HOW DO YOU DO?
PLEASE RESPOND TO ME PROMPTLY OR I WILL CAUSE A RUCKUS.
P.S.: I WOULD LIKE TO BRING YOU BACK WITH ME TO MY HOMEPLANET SOON. "JUST A HEAD'S UP, YO." AS I HEARD A FAT BLACK MAN SAY TODAY.
I'm writing this letter to you during detention because I already finished writing "I will not send other students flying into walls" 100 times and now I'm bored.
How are you? I miss you.
I don't want to go to kendo anymore.
I found a dead praying mantis on the ground today.
I had pizza for lunch.
I played this game with myself today where I didn't say anything whatsoever all day, even when spoken to.
I think my favorite fruit is a pear now.
I'm angry.
I had a staring contest with a cat in an alleyway today.
I just remembered a specific place on your body that I haven't licked in a long time, so now I have something to look forward to (you'll like it a whole lot, I promise).
I think we should adopt a cat.
I have a girl following me around now, and she thinks she's good at staying hidden.
I like cloudy days.
I think Max is after your heart again.
I walked to school extra slowly today to see if it would change the flow of time as a whole and it didn't work.
I like when you sleep facing toward me.
I'm going to try to make a stew for dinner, but first I need to buy some carrots.
I hate that alien guy.
I was hit in the head by a paper airplane today and then I opened it up and it said inside "SIR OLIVER STRIKES AGAIN" and I thought that was stupid but entertaining.
I'm sorry for that time when you told me that you loved me and I broke a glass bottle over your face.
I'm sorry that you kept loving me anyway despite the way I cut you open and covered you in shades of red.
I'm sorry that I ruined your eye and that I can't say when or why I did it.
I'm sorry for grabbing you by your hair and being upset when it wasn't the right length for me to twist in my fingers and throw you on the floor.
I'm sorry for threatening to kill you every single day just so you wouldn't forget that I could (and that being alive is important).
I'm sorry for that time when I was so frustrated with you that I muffled your words with a kiss.
I'm sorry that it was your first.
I'm also sorry that I laughed at you when you got upset about it.
I'm sorry for telling you I wouldn't hurt you so that I could get your guard down, and then went out of my way to make things worse than they usually were just to try to teach you a lesson that probably didn't make sense to you in the first place.
I'm sorry for being in all of your nightmares so you can never sleep alone.
I'm sorry you have to wake up next to me in the morning after those nightmare.
I'm sorry for being sorry about things I haven't listed.
I'm sorry if this isn't the first letter like this you get from me.
Hi, it's Tomoyo! I just wanted to send you a quick letter, since that's apparently what all the cool kids are doing right now. It's kind of fun!
Thanks so much for joining our team and helping out! I think you've got a lot of potential and we'll work really well together. Hopefully the obnoxious other members of the team haven't scared you off yet.... they've all got good intentions, I promise!
Anyways, yeah! Let's keep fighting! You're getting great with that sword.
