[ Welp he hadn't answered the Christmas letter. Time to answer this one. Boy was he not in the mood to focus on friendship with Hakkai gone, but he'll give it a shot. Since Usagi's came with a Messenger bird, he snags another one for Shinou.

Shin,

One of these days I hope to find out what you mean instead of 'advances.' Maybe you haven't noticed, I'm kind of an idiot. You can't use giant words with me - sarcasm I get, but the rest of it not so much. Especially when you throw 'love' in there.

Even as a friend, trust me, you don't want to love me. I don't deserve it. - Sha Gojyo

[ And if people are going to keep disappearing, then it's just going to get worse. The others tried to warn him but he didn't expect Hakkai to be the first one to go. ]
