Keep In Touch



Long-Distance Meme



One of the best ways to let people know that you care about them and think about how they're doing is to write a letter. Or maybe you prefer emails. Or carrier pigeons?! The point is, your friend/loved one is a long ways away. Why not write to them to brighten their day? And if all goes well, maybe a reunion isn't far behind!

PROMPTS

1. Prison - One of you screwed up with the law. Pass the time with letters and carefully x-rayed parcels, and hopefully this person can get out with good behavior.

2. Vacation - Send a postcard and goofy vacation photos. Wish you were here!

3. Moved Away - Someone had to move to a new city, or even a new continent, and you miss them terribly. Talk about the change of scenery, make plans to visit, bitch about the awful new neighbors.

4. Foreign Exchange - Whether you're a student, a diplomat, or an international agent of some kind, one person is required to go across seas.

5. Secret Mission - Someone is going undercover. Send letters to keep in touch, or to keep up their facade of a mild-mannered accountant so no one knows they're infiltrating the enemy.

6. Never Coming Back - One person died or went missing, and writing letters is one of the only ways the other person can cope. But what if they're not dead like everyone thought? They'll have a lot of reading to do!

7. Hatemail - You hate their face and everything about them, ugggghhh they suck so much! --Wait, you didn't mean to send that, did you? Oops.

8. Love Letter - All your gushing confessions can only emerge on paper. --Wait, you didn't mean to send that, did you? You're really bad at this!

9. WILD CARD - Go nuts! Write letters, texts, emails, make phone calls, and/or transition from long distance to mere inches.

Dearest Ororo,

I would be lying to say that I do not miss you on a daily basis, but on gloomy days like today the ache is especially strong. I cannot help but miss how you would sweep the clouds away so that we could have a proper picnic... Of course, what I miss most is having you beside me with your beautiful smile that could outshine the sun.

It does not help that my mother has broken out of jail yet again and somehow I have gotten roped into hunting her down. At least having a shapeshifting international terrorist for a family member means one can never be bored, ja? I can only pray that your vacation is going better than mine.

Most sincerely,

Kurt

Dear Kurt,

I've been thinking about you a lot too. I'm already planning our next picnic in my head when I'm not preoccupied with school.. and other things. It's been crazy here too.

Your mother keeps you busy, that's for sure. I wish you the best of luck in finding her. Let's hope she doesn't get up to anything sinister.

Can't wait to see you. I'll make sure it's a beautiful weather when you return.

With love,

Ororo

[personal profile] blueberry_bamf 2018-06-24 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Ororo,

I hope it is not prying to ask what these "other things" are that are worrying you. As your friend, I would be more than happy to share the burden of your concerns if you need to share.

My hunt for my mother has led me to France. I have many fond memories of traveling through this country as a child, but as an adult I am afraid I am unable to be quite as enamored. Of course, it does not help that at every moment I am worried Raven might attempt to blow something up...

I look forward to being back with you. Any weather is beautiful so long as you are by my side.

Love,

Kurt

[personal profile] ororostorm 2018-06-24 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Kurt,

Some things have happened here. It's not prying at all, Kurt. You're one of the few I can tell anything to. I've become more fond of someone close to me and it's puzzling.

She's capable of many things. Please be safe, Kurt. If there's anything we can do, just say the word.

You're always so charming, Kurt. That's one the many things I like about you.

Love,

Ororo

[personal profile] blueberry_bamf 2018-06-24 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Lovely Ororo,

What is puzzling about growing more fond of someone you are close to? As I understand it, that is the goal of relationships. Of course, given my track record perhaps I am not the best person to give such advice...

There is something you could do. I know she is somewhere in Paris, but I am having a hard time pinpointing exactly where. If the Professor could use Cerebro to give me even a general direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Oh? There are many things you like about me? Do tell~

With deepest regards,

Kurt, Charming Rogue

My dear Kurt,

The feelings have become so strong I can hardly understand them myself. There's a strange feeling whenever he's nearby.

I'll let the professor know. I'm sure he'll be more than happy to help. You're a part of the x-family after all.

I like your kindness, how true your heart is and your friendship. Being with you always feels so soothing and safe. I love our long conversations.

Ororo, your friend for eternity

Ororo, Love of my Life,

Ah, I know that feeling very well. Believe it or not, I am not just a wonderful flirt-- there is a deeper aspect there. I often wonder if my flirting is an attempt to keep that deeper part hidden. Or perhaps I have simply drunk just a tad too much wine.

My mother is back in jail, thanks to the Professor's help, but I will stay in Paris a while longer just to make sure she stays that way. I am guessing it will take her, at the most, a week to break out this time.

I wish you were here with me, Ororo. I am agitated and frustrated by many things. Your presence always calms my soul.

Whatever man has caught your eye, I hope he knows how lucky his is. If not, I will return home promptly to inform him.

Yours forever,

Kurt
ororostorm: (smile3)

[personal profile] ororostorm 2018-06-30 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Kurt dearest,

I'd love to see that deeper part sometime. I'm sure it's just as intriguing and special as everything else about you.

I'm glad to hear that. He was more than happy to help you. Let's hope she doesn't get out anytime soon.

I wish I was there too. I'd love to be in your company and talk with you about anything and everything.

I could use your help, Kurt.

With much love,

Ororo
