[[OOC - I had to confirm what was going on in Fors before sending this, sorry :'D]]
[Reira has certain regular behaviors for Elias; nearly every day, he tries to share what he did with him, and when he misses one, he does his best to remember the time that needs to be caught up. He tells him about playing in the lake, about racing against cars along the sidewalk, about flying higher, higher, and higher still...
When he comes in this time, it has been almost two weeks since his last message. His wings are stumps-scabbed over and bandaged, with only a few days to 'heal'.
He seems okay. Mostly. He carries a wrapped gift, along with a plate of the food from his house's christmas party.]
...I'm sorry I haven't been able to play, [he starts, setting the plate on the table in his room. He always just sort of leaves food there when he brings it. If the 4th likes it, it'll probably be gone when he comes back again, he's sure. He doesn't mind if something is left behind-no one likes broccoli.] ...I got grounded for trying to go on an adventure...
...I still got to go after that, but because of what happened, I couldn't come in for a while still... [The wing stumps shudder. When he sleeps in here after making his 'prayer', they will heal through his recently gifted power; but that is later, and this is now.] ...I wish you could have come though. It was scary, [he admits.] And I got hurt, and so did the others, but..!
...I could only bring them because of the power you gave me...and even though it was dark, and scary, it was fun too...! There was something there at the bottom...with suns, and moons, even though it was hard to see, and I think you would have liked to see it too!
Because adventures are fun, [he says quietly. But he bites his lip.] ...Someone said you can't bring laptops in the water though... ...so even though I thought of it, I didn't want it to get ruined, and hurt you... ...I thought, 'maybe I can at least take a picture', but if it didn't work underwater, then that wouldn't happen either.
...I'll try to tell you about it though. I want to explore more places like that, to tell you those stories...! So that you can hear about more than just hide and seek! It'd be like reading an adventure book, or a comic! [He doesn't have many comics, mind, but the few he has are Pretty Good in his opinion.
The gift, and its card, sit on the table. The boy yawns.] ...'m gonna sleep here tonight...I missed my room, and I missed playing with you...
BACKDATED TO CHRISTMAS
