(I am so good at thumbnails... *right*? hehehe ^^ anyway this is overdue akjhflkd; other stuff came up and I was busy ^^' I know you don't mind but I'm sorry aaa >< thank you to Kat for creating "THE ALBA IS COOL CLUB WHICH IS NOT A CULT" ^^ andd alright; here we go! this isn't even edited because it's late oops but I hope you like?) ✿ ✿ ✿ Dear Albacasia, I am writing you this letter for a few reasons, the foremost ones being: My desire to prove my devotion to you, and my desire to enlighten the world (and yourself) of the extent of your incredibleness. *Inhale* We’ve known each other for quite a while now (it’ll be an year in April aah), and ever since the beginning, you’ve been someone I look up to. Your talent is truly astounding - and I could squeeze in so many similar adjectives hehe; each one of them would be true. You’re amazing. You’re fantastic. You’re wonderful. You’re brilliant. You’re beautiful (not that I’ve seen you hehe, but I’m sure you are). Your voice - AAAAAA! And your ukulele playing! And oh my gosh, your writing! Your art! I know I gush about these all the time but it cannot be helped. You’re simply too good. Your compassion, your thoughtfulness, your unequivocally gorgeous personality - all of these contribute to making up Alba as I know you. An undiluted brightness. You have inspired hundreds of people, myself included. Thank you for sharing your creativity with the world, with Scratch - it won’t be for forever, but during our small, fragmental moments - gleaming lights in the darkness - we were there. It’s been amazing to see you grow during the past year: as a singer and musician, a writer, and as a person, too. As you explored more about yourself, and discovered new things. One day, the world will be so much bigger. You’ll be out there - underneath the spotlights, the eyes of so many others. You’ll be something else. But for now, you’re here - as a spectacular friend and Host. (And cult leader, too, if you’re so inclined.) Which brings me to what I’m going to say next. I don’t even mean it as a joke: in all seriousness, I want to thank you for your raise-worthy work - every single thing you do for SWC. Every activity you have planned, every post, every minute you (and Icy!) have dedicated to our little community and will do in the future. You really deserve a raise, honestly. Thank you for all the hard work you put into all of the Hosty business - for having faith and courage. Thirty one consecutive days of Hosting, wow! I appreciate all that you do - thank you, Alba. You’re the best, Alba. I look up to you so much, and I hope that I can be more like you. You’re honestly a very, very admirable person - like, you wrote a novel! I aspire to be so dedicated to something. You’re so kind (even though you tried to war Dystopian before I could at Icy’s request... still a little salty about that heh, but I’ll let it pass for now), so empathetic, and so talented. And maybe you’re an arsonist. But you’re *our* arsonist - our hero, our cult leader, our beacon and guide. You lift us, you light our way, you terrify us (jkjk... or am I? hehe) you inspire us to work better and try harder. I forgive you for your crimes of arson. Thank you for being my friend Alba. I hope you realize just how loved you are. I know life has been stressful for you lately - I don’t know what exactly you’re going through right now, but I hope you’re okay. I’m so sorry, and I hope things calm down soon. If it helps even a little; know that I - and countless other people - will always, always, always be here for you. You’re not alone. *Hugs* - the darkness will pass. <3 And in the meantime, I will be here to watch you light us many funeral pyres as you want, hehe. You beautiful, beautiful person. There’s no one else like you in the world - you’re so special, and you deserve so much - the world, the sky, the universe, and whatever lies beyond. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Love, Starr ✿ ✿ ✿ hi did you know that is very cool :D
