love letters + shipping texts meme
- comment with your character.
- other people will reply to you.
- your characters (in a relationship, in love, in some sort of attraction that gravitates around the other, in idk 'love' is a many-splendored thing) are communicating via: passionate confessions written on parchment, furtive notes scrawled in code, passive-aggressive post-it notes, messages carved in trees, smoke signals, instant messages on space age computers, text messages complete with lovey-dovey pictures, whatever!
- have fun!

I often wonder what we did to deserve you. We’re a flawed, selfish, greedy bunch. We destroy our own worlds and destroy each other, and even then, it’s not enough. We’re so bad at improving. Progress is basically swimming against the current.
Yet you’re still here with us. When I see you, I get it. I get why light will illuminate darkness, why good always wins, and why your smile is so contagious.
Maybe we don’t deserve your strength. Maybe your compassion and love is better used somewhere else, but trust me when I say that it’s not wasted here. Those who know you understand your worth. I’m one of those lucky ones, and though it’s real hard saying it out loud, you inspire me to be better, and I know I’m not the only one.
You once told me that the world’s burden on my shoulders will weigh on me if I carry it for too long, and just those words lightened the load. Diana, if you ever feel that weight too, know that you’ll never be alone. Your allies and I are at arm’s reach, ready to be by your side through anything.
Yours,
Inspired.
P.S. I think that guy who dresses up as a bat for fun really treasures your company too.

I know you are embarrassed that I figured out who you are, but I hope you know it's a quality I find endearing. Perhaps because it's one that I struggle with myself, as subtlety is still an art that I fail to grasp perfectly.
You are not wrong when you say that progress is swimming against the current. It is a most unfortunate truth that we must all acknowledge if we want to make a difference, to realize what the odds are before we would lay our lives before the cause.
But I write to remind you that you too, are a symbol of hope. If anything, I believe you and others like you to be even more symbolic of what humanity can offer one day.
My childhood was basked in light, in truth, and without any real hardship for me to bear. I was a beloved Princess, the only child on the whole island, and so you can imagine how my only concerns were learning how to be a great warrior and besting others in competition.
But you carry a deep pain from your own childhood that I could never hope to understand. And this loss has shaped you, but not as much as many might think. In choosing to follow the path of hope, you have chosen not to let the pain warp your perspective of what the world owes you and it is this strength that makes me so proud of you.
You are human. It is simultaneously your greatest weakness and your greatest strength. I hope that in your journey, you will not look to judge yourself on mistakes you've made, but remember that every path towards justice is treacherous. It is infinitely the harder choice to make. But you make it every day.
Love,
Diana
