#188. Letters
Dear Binary Ms. Marvel Carol Ms. Danvers,
The Professor says its good to write. I told him there ain't no way in hell you're gonna open up a letter thats from me. Not that I could blame ya. Not after what I did. I could just say sorry an' be done but you ain't gonna accept my apology--hell, you ain't even readin' this so what the hell, might as well just put down what I want.
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that to you. To hurt you an' take your powers. If its any kind of consolation it hurt me too. An' you're strong. Stronger than any of the others I've ever absorbed, though the Professor says thats cause I have you in me forever. But Cody didn't hurt like this. An' he sure don't struggle like ya do.
I don't even know why I went after ya anymore. An' if'n I knew what was gonna happen I sure as hell wouldn't've done it. Not that sayin' that helps.
But I really am sorry. An' not just cause I'm in pain as well.
An' I'm sorry for what my Momma did.
I'd watch your back, Ms. Danvers. Momma's ruthless when she's got a target in her sights. An' thats where she's got ya.
I think I'm gonna just close this.
I hope you're doin' better.
Rogue
You ain't listenin'. Hell, did ya ever? No no. You did. At one point.
I remember when ya did. When ya stroked my hair an' I listened ta ya talk an' ya listened to me. But that stopped. I don't think either of us is listenin' anymore an' I don't know how to make us start.
I want it back like it was. Before everythin' went to hell but I don't know if it'll ever be that way again. An' that makes me sad. But would it make you sad? I don't know anymore.
I miss you.
I love you.
Please come back to me.
I'll try an' help ya find your way.
If you wanna come, that is.
Do you even wanna come back?
Erik, I'm scared.
