My twin sister married her very dull beau around this time of year about a century and a half ago. I am, of course, the kindest and most considerate of brothers and chose not to celebrate her nuptials with a simple pre-written card conveying my well wishes and general fondness for the happy couple. No, my messages were far more personal, mostly including puns that might cause my sister to shout in frustration so loudly that I might hear her even though we were continents away.

As, for obvious reasons, I cannot send her my regards, I have decided to inflict a pun upon you all. This was dear Evie's favorite, I know because it always had her howling with laughter. Or perhaps she was howling because I ducked when she launched her shoe at my head. No matter, enjoy with my compliments:

"Why should a candle-maker never be pitied?"
Because all his works are wicked, and all his wicked works, when brought to light, are only made light of.

We were together for about twenty one years before she became engaged and moved off to India, so she would say that she did her time putting up with me. And I suppose, in my case, an ounce of approval makes me absolutely intolerable.

That has to be hard.. I couldn't imagine being that far away from any of my litter mates.

I won't lie and say that I have gotten used to Evie not being there, but I have excellent distractions, especially here.

You're from the outside world though, so she could totally show up any day. My twin is currently three... Having any deep conversations without fart noises isn't really happening.

But like your twin, they could come here any day, I mean people randomly show up all through out my life time.

If she were here she would insist our conversations are just as puerile, she would be lying but she would still say it.

I suppose she could, but I'm not certain I would wish that for her. I miss her a great deal but I know how happy she is with her man and her work. She isn't as emotionally adaptable as I am, I don't see her finding another love the way I have been incredibly fortunate to.

Oh gosh, I know Georgie would say our conversations were absolutely puerile, but I treasure them, and I know she does too no matter what she might say.

Normally I wouldn't admit this, but I think I know what you mean. The L word is thrown around a lot, so finding someone you mean it with... That's special. And if she has that and it's that big, you could survive without everything else but them, sort... it would be cruel for her to come here with out the hubs. And I know you're not a cruel person.

Let us just say that I love my sister and that I want her to be happy. Discussing my lack of cruelty might not reflect so well on my reputation. Fearsome London gang leader, it wouldn't do to have people not fear me.

Okay I will amend it and say you're not cruel to people have mild affection for. But strangers better watch out! Oh and the people you absolutely just don't like, they can just kick rocks.

Positively perfect, thank you.

You're welcome, though, you could always play off the 'not cruel' thing and let it be a surprise if you ever had to use it.

There's a thought, I'll have to give that a test some day.

Well, if I'm honest, I hope you never have to. Not here anyway.

So do I, I can't say I take joy in cruelty.

Well if it helps, I've never seen you be cruel to anyone. You've only ever been nice.

I do try my best.

I won't give too much away, of course. I don't want to change your path too much.

I’m not certain if I ought to thank you or press you for details. I like a little bit of an advantage and apparently was not scarred enough by looking into the Great War.

It would be better if you didn't press. Sometimes it's nice to be surprised by life. And you never know if just that little bit might cause you to change how you do something, or if you hesitate, when you wouldn't have.

The fact that you know anything about how I will be does have implications for my future, even without you giving anything away.

Well, the only obvious is you're still here. But is that a horrible thought?

As long as I continue to have excellent company, not horrible at all.

That's something I can also confirm. I don't think any paradoxes will split off if I tell you that you do still have the same company.

You're quite welcome.
