potholeoffortuneWe have plans!
Oh, it is nice to be (almost) all back together. Like old times, except in a tiny living room, rather than an 19th century cafe. And there's twice as many of us, in a way. Maybe 1.5 times.
Maria might be Musichetta.... I had wondered. Both hoped, and feared it. Either way wouldn't change my love for her, of course. But, the possibility feels right somehow.
Hopefully my bad luck can focus the shadow's attentions on me, rather than having it notice her. Though, since I hoping for it, perhaps misfortune won't play along.
It is hard to believe that we've finally come out of the poly closet to the others. We've debated over it for so long now, it's a little strange to have it done with.
Everyone has been amazing. I had thought they would. Even Barry, and he's had to deal with the worst of it. I fully accept any teasing he'll dish out in return.

Ditto about Maria.
It would be wonderfully romantic to have Musichetta back with us. Together for eternity. <3 (Or however long the whole reincarnation thing goes on for.) But, like you said, I don't want her to be targeted the way the rest of us have been. I wish there was something we could do to keep her hidden from it.
We are very very very lucky. And there's not many things I get to claim that about. The two of you, and our whole band of friends... it more than makes up for the rest of Fortuna's pranks.

Annoying, yes. Creator of tribulations and misfortune, I'd rather not.

Date: 2013-02-07 02:24 am (UTC)You're not an obstacle for us, though. You're our friend, and I'm certain that Eric feels the same way.

He's my roommate, and I try to be good company. But I hardly ever see you two apart from each other.
