wishing my life away with these things I’ll never say

UNSENT LETTERS MEME	Letter Types
Maybe you were just cleaning up, maybe you were snooping on purpose when you found the letter tucked away where they obviously thought you would never find it. It has your name written right on it, plain and clear. Do you read it? It's so hard to resist... And if you do, do you confront them about it or try your best to ignore it? - Post your character with name, series, and any preferences. - Others respond after enlisting the help of RNG on deciding a type or just choosing the one they like best. - Play nice.	1. hate ∞ the letter details what you've done to bother the person who wrote it. It lists all the problems they have with you and all the wrongs you've done to them. 2. break ∞ secretly, they've wanted to break up with you for awhile now. 3. love ∞ they are hopelessly, helplessly in love with you. 4. depression ∞ they're very depressed or desperate and spill out every reason why. 5. confession ∞ they've done something wrong and detail it in this letter. Was it to you or somebody else? 6. sexy ∞ not quite romantic, they're confessing all the dirty things they would like to do with you. 7. leaving ∞ they were offered a job or something too enticing to pass up and they're planning on leaving you soon. 8. wildcard ∞ If you don't like any of the above options, make up your own letter!

In Grimmauld Place, tucked away in Regulus' desk. Easily found once Walburga and Orion die and the place is turned into an Order safe house.

Remus -

I'm sorry. For everything. I never wanted to hurt anyone but I did to protect myself and I ruined everything. I ruined what we had, ruined my relationship with my brother. I saw him looking afraid of me and I can't stand it. I can't keep going like this. I've figured out something important for the war. I have to go after it. I won't be able to see you again but please don't worry about me. I'll be all right. I promise.

I miss you. War is hell, isn't it? I never wanted any of this. Please be careful and take care of yourself, I'll be very cross if I hear you're not. I love you. I never stopped.

Thinking of you always,
Regulus.

hello mum ......i will tag that other thread soon btw

[scaevity]

Accidentally left atop his desk at home after a cleaning stint over summer before his seventh year, clearly labeled mum.

mum:

i need your advice. there's someone i like - really like, but we've been friends for a really long time and i don't want to ruin anything. sometimes i think they like me but whenever i try to make it clear that i like them, they laugh it off. i don't want to be too pushy about it because what if i push them away? like, i want to date but i would rather still be friends if i had to pick only one. i'm scared.

i don't even know if they like people like me. boys, i mean. i don't know if they even like boys. is that a weird thing to worry about? but i guess i'm worrying about everything.

i guess i didn't even think about what i'm asking for advice about, i'm just talking and hoping any of it makes sense. is it possible to fancy someone but still be okay only being their friend or am i going to be sad forever? i've noticed they never like any of my girlfriends but i can't tell if that just means they think i have really bad taste. but i like them so i can't have that bad of taste, right?

i'm sorry this is long and stupid. i don't think i'm going to actually send it, but it feels okay to get it out on paper.

i love you, mum.

It's been different with each of them. Every time she thought she'd managed to get her head around something with James, Albus winds up shooting off in an entirely different direction; and Lily's been half a dozen guesses at every turn. She can't begin to imagine how her own mother had ever kept up with anything at all.

Letters and notes aren't exactly new, of course. They're particularly not new from this particular child, even. It's the most natural thing in the world, as she gives another quick pass to the tidying efforts consuming their home, to catch up a note in Albus's handwriting, holding it absently in one hand as she gives the pillows a firm patting down and whisks her attention into the corners for signs of errant dust.

She's back at the door by the time she actually gives the words any attention. And then she's stuck in the door, wand-hand resting slightly against the frame and feet still almost stepping forward as all of her attention becomes fully arrested.

The first time through, she nearly forces herself to put it down again in the middle of the nearly final sentiment. It feels almost like snooping, to be reading a letter her son, even in writing, hadn't fully intended her to actually see. Yet there she stands, stuck in the doorway, reading for a second and a third time the instantly recognizable hurt of wondering.

She shouldn't take the letter. She won't pretend she never saw the letter. When she can walk again, she moves to set the parchment carefully on the middle of his pillow, folded in her own tight, precise creases and very pointedly no longer on desk.

He'll come talk to her about it. Or, if he won't, he'll find himself caught under the arm and dragged out under the stars about it. That's not meddling, after all. It's parenting. It's the version of parenting she's cobbled together with Harry over the last few decades.

It's worked well so far, anyway.

b/c this will always be heart-breaking, I am sorry beforehand...

[castintoflames]

Finno,

It began when you were born. I loved you from the start, though far differently then. I wished to guard you, protect you and guide you for the rest of your days. Your light was - and is - like a star; a point that I used far too often when you were of age. Once we left Valinor, I counted on you even more; I placed burdens upon your shoulders that should not have been there. I treated you as my harbor; my haven when it should have been the other way around.

Can you forgive me? I know you already do; I know I needn't ask, yet I should be asking - begging, pleading - for forgiveness and you, my dear cousin, should deny me. I do nothing but taint your light.

Even so, my twisted heart has loved no one else. You gain nothing from my feelings and that is why you will likely never see this letter. But I must tell someone - even if the words are only written on parchment.

I love you, Finno. I love you. I would marry you in the span of one heart-beat and the next if I knew you would not be rejected by our people. Therefore...

I will protect your shine, my star, for as long as I am able.

[ Keith hadn't meant to be there without Lance.

Honestly, he had though Lance woud be in there trying to hide from training or something so he had just let himself in, starting off like Lane was there. 'you know avoiding shiro is just going to make it worse' things like that.

That is...until he noticed that Lance was no where to be found. Surprised Keith looked around. He wouldn't have even noticed the box if it hadn't had something sticking out of it with his name, Keith's name, in blaring red letters.

Literally. ]

What the hell?

[ Looking around Keith shrugged and moved to pick out the first letter, seeing more like it. Rolling his eyes he opened the first and scanned it. It had to be some immature letter about how much Lance hated his hair or something, right?

Oh god was he wrong. ]

[the_tailor]

[He'd been writing these letters for a while now. Every one with a similar subject matter, and every one stashed away before he could bring up the nerve to give it to the recipient. It was, at the least, a good way to vent out his feelings. Because hell if he was going to tell anyone how deeply he'd fallen for the red paladin.]


Keith,

I know I seem like a total ladies man and a confident flirt, but when it comes down to it, I'm kind of crap at actually dealing with actually having feelings for someone. Real feelings. Feelings like I have for you. It's not just that you're hot (even though you are), it's those times when you smile and laugh, that look of concentration when you're training, the way you care about everyone even though you're so awkward about it.

So I'm writing you this letter because I'm too much of a coward to tell you face to face.

I lo


[The letter ends there. But there are plenty of others.]


Keith,
I tried writing you a letter and then I decided it sucks so I'm giving it another try. That's a shit way to start a letter.


Keith,
Will you go out with me?
[ ] Yes
[ ] No

Please leave your response under my door


Keith,
I'm in I lov You're perf I hate you


Keith,
I give up, I'm not sending any of these. I'll probably keep writing them though, because I'm a completely pathetic man who can't even tell the guy he's in love with that he IS in love with him. You probably deserve better than me, anyway. So there's that, I guess. But I still want to kiss you so badly it hurts. God. I need a drink.


[And many more similar letters.]

[lonewolflion]

[ At first Keith turned a light shade of pink before he continued to read and realized just how bad it must have been for Lance. Setting et another note back into the pile in the box Keith looked around. There had to a pen around here some--AHA! Diving for a pen, Keith returned and pulled out a specific note. ] Keith, Will you go out with me? [✔] Yes [ ] No Please leave your response under my door Lance, Sorry I didn't mean to snoop through your stuff. Came in here looking for you and saw something with my name on it. If you still wanna go out after you're done being made at me, how about that weird like space diner we saw on our way back from the last mission? I think we shouldn't be too far from it still. Sorry again, Keith [ Looking the note over a couple times Keith smiled and set it open, on top of the box, and left after closing up the box with the letter sitting on top. After all, he had to get to training or Shiro was going to yell at him. If he see's Lance he just gives him a small smile before going about his own routine, a little more pep in his step than usual. After all, it wasn't everyday you found out that someone you liked had been crushing on you too. ]

[the_tailor]

[Keith has been looking...oddly happy today. He's been smiling a lot more than usual (see: more than once or twice a day), and they've been directed at him. Something is up, and he needs to find out what it is.

For now, though, he needs rest. Lance yawns as he walks into his room, tossing off his jacket. He's ready for a nice night's sleep with the inevitable pining dreams. He makes his way to the bed, eyes flickering downwards to see his letter box.

Not where it's supposed to be.

With a letter on top of it.

He nearly screeches, dropping down on his knees next to it and grabbing the note. Oh god. Someone saw it. Someone saw it, maybe even Keith, and his life is over. But he reads the letter, and almost screeches for a completely different reason.

Not a minute later, he's standing outside of Keith's door, skidding in front of it with his socks. Lance knocks. Loudly.]

[lonewolflion]

[ To be honest Keith was expecting this...didn't mean he was any less nervous. What he had done was sort of a breach of trust, but he couldn't help it.

Sighing he stood up and opened the door, looking at Lance. He's ready to get yelled at or something. He shifts a bit on his feet. ]

Hey, Lance, what's up?

[the_tailor]

[He's clutching Keith's letter in his hand, shaking it.]

This! This is what's up!

[Lance's face is red from both the situation and running over.]
