texting the honey







(reverse) love letters + shipping texts meme


  • comment with your character and a starter message/letter in the top-level. blank comments will be deleted! you may even want to play it like tfln, with several options to choose from.
  • 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 commanicating 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!

[ Frankly, he's quite pleased she went with the literal interpretation. ]

I'm not typically known for my patience, that could prove problematic if you're particularly attached to certain garments.

I'd rather be fully seen than shrouded in fabrics.

Especially by such a keen pair of eyes.

Careful now, with encouragement like that I'd be tempted to sneak into your quarters late one night when all others are sleeping soundly; to witness your beauty in full.

And late one night, I'll leave the door unlocked for you, so you won't end in debt with my family for tresspassing.

When you see me, Aedan, tell me your first thoughts in person.

A locked door is hardly enough to keep me out, but I appreciate the regard.

I will whisper them against your skin.
tothequeen: (but now)

It's called "taking care". I recommend it.

[ In general? Certainly. With her? Very much so. ]

What are you afraid would happen if I didn't?
tothequeen: (she told me)

[personal profile] tothequeen 2023-10-06 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'll forget myself. My obligations, my ambitions, my wishes.

Well, maybe not my wishes.

Surely your Queen doesn't demand such selflessness from you that you are meant to deny yourself everything save for obligation and ambition.

What of passion?


[ And what was life without it? Dull. All the ambition and glory in the world couldn't make up for the lack of it; at least in his opinion. ]
tothequeen: (to fuss)

[personal profile] tothequeen 2023-10-06 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
My Queen demands only my advice, the rest is what I demand of myself.

You have enough passion for the both of us. One of us must act as counterweight.


[ Is this to say she has no passion? That she isn't passionate about him? Or is this to say that sometimes it frightens her how much he awakens in her? ]

You demand too much of yourself.

I don't think you are in any danger of losing sight of your duties should you decide to take a temporary pause in being that counterweight.

You make it sound as if passion is all that I am.


[ Which isn't an insult, but it makes him curious - what does she think of him? ]
