~ ‘Faithfully Yours’ ~
Love Letters Through the Ages 💌📩📫
———————————
“Hey Archibald, do you think this is too much?” 
“Hey, Archie, do you think this is too much?” 
“Hey, Arch, do you think this is too much?”  
He’d swear on his fathers future grave that he’d hear Douxie say that sentence a million - No billion- times over the centuries, Archie thought. 
His poor wizard familiar seemed remarkably consistent in calling for him at his letter writing desk. Why must you ask? 
“Well, it all started centuries ago when Douxie, I, and you all parted ways after a remarkably well-successful few decades of wizardly adventures.” Although, it was simply put in Archie’s opinion that having you around made Douxie somehow less impulsive.
After parting ways though the wizards kept in touch. 
Delightful, right?
“No! Blast, I’d be sitting on a horde of Brasher Doubloons and licking fatty sardine oil off my paws. For every time that young Hisirdoux asked me the question, ‘do you think it’s too much?’
Well certainly not D. You’ve only been in love with them for a couple centuries now. You’d think maybe you ought to cut to the chase!” 
“There’s certainly no harm in signing it ‘your friend’ or ‘take care’ or ‘patiently awaiting your response.’”
“Fuzzbuckets,” Arch rubbed his temples.  
“We’ve all been patiently waiting for him to do something. Zoey, and I. TrollMarket. But what we didn’t know, or at least, I never realized until now.
I ‘accidentally’ okay, I know, and maybe not entirely accidentally.  
Found a trunk full of old letter correspondences from Douxie and Y/N. 
And every time after he’d ask me, his dear old wise familiar, for advice he’d scratch out the various friendly signatures and address it ‘faithfully yours’ to you.”
Pacing back across the floor Archie continued, “For centuries! Every single one! 
So, I’ve concluded I’d not be rich, but rather I’d be in debt owing Wendell billions of dollars beyond anyones wildest dreams. Because,” Archie finished, plopping down, “Douxie had some damn sincere game going this whole time.”
