Still in shock

Jul 28, 2005 10:00

I guess I probably should've written about this sooner, since it's such a big deal--I mean, stuff like this is why I have this thing, right? To organize my thoughts. Well. I'm having a lot of thoughts right now.

I still can't believe I found her. Actually, maybe it's better to say that she found me, because she was the one looking. I didn't even realize she was out here. I definitely didn't realize that she was alone.

Now here I am on a gummi ship (a gummi ship, of all places--how ironic) headed into deep space. She needs to go to Hollow Bastion, and I couldn't just let her go alone. It takes one pilot and one gunner to run one of these damn ships anyway.

She's been... really great so far. It's pretty surreal that we're here, together, after all these years. I'd say it feels like old times, but of course it doesn't. So much has changed. I knew that I had changed, but I didn't realize that she had. I guess I always thought of her as being the same girl I knew when we were little, but of course that's ridiculous. I changed; why wouldn't she?

The important things, though--the things that I was afraid really would change--those are all the same.

I don't think I could describe it. I've never been great with words.

Anyway, she can see all this stuff I write now, so I guess I should stop talking about her like she's not here. Hard habit to break. I'll work on it. And as much as you're an ass for disappearing, Axel, I'm glad you did, because it took me a lot longer than I'd expected to get back to you. We'll finish our deal some other time.
