On reapping after the holidays....
Lady,
I know that you have missed letting me live in that place and playing in that game. I have missed it, too. I miss my friends, my cats, my love. I did not wish to leave. You know I did not wish to leave. And there is a part of me that is overjoyed at the idea of going back. But, Lady, I have concerns as well.
Are your duties any less than they were when you stole me away a few months ago? Have you the time, truly, to let me return and live as I wish? I know there is much you must do - mayhaps you should consider working all the harder now, if you plan to send me back. Then all your duties may not seem so overwhelming as they have this last season.
But, that is your concern. For myself, I fear what will happen when I return - if I return. I have seen what happens to those who are stolen away and return later. It has broken my heart more than once to find a friend become a stranger. Will you now place me in that role? To be with my friends and not remember any of them? To not remember Bubbles or Lord Saxon or Sokka or Sango or Spike - to not remember the family that left before I did? Must I forget my family and friends who still live and thrive in that place? I do not wish to cause pain. If I return to those whom I love, I will not remember that I love them. I will not remember my cats, nor all the things I learned either. I will be as I was when first I arrived - helpless and frightened - and this time Tybalt will not be with me.
It is a risk I wish to take, Lady, should you be willing and able. What was lost can be regained. That, I have seen as well. Friendships can be forged again. I should like the chance to do so.
Though it will be cold in January, even in my wedding dress.
Yours most earnestly,
Juliet
