I really, really hate to think that Arthur would ever have been suicidal. I love him too dearly.

I'll just forget about that and give him a big hug instead, because Arthur is brilliant.

[caffienekitty]

It's something that won't fit everyone's head-canon for Arthur's childhood, certainly.

Hugs are brilliant!

[caffienekitty]

Wow, thank you! I'm glad you liked it!

okay. so yeah. first of all, absolutely brilliant Arthur voice. just. amazing. second I held it together pretty good until I got to the best friends anyone ever had and they're mine and then I lost it. big ugly sobbing tears and just. wonderful work.

[caffienekitty]

Thank you so much, and sorry about the gouts of tears?

Arthur, thank you so much for this video! I loved it, I really did! I can see why your friends Skip and Douglas would be so fond of you and want to make Christmas for you and make sure your Dad gave you all the jet engines you'd ever want. And I am certain that there are many thirteen-year-olds out there who will love this video more than anybody -- but you -- could ever imagine. Maybe because of you, they'll know that they can live to see the Northern Lights and polar bears, too.

Caffienekitty -- brilliant job. ;-) I mean, what other description could there be?

[caffienekitty]

Arthur and I thank you. XD

That was so lovely. I'm all sniffles here. Your Arthur voice is wonderful.

[caffienekitty]

Thank you!
