Daryl,
Hope everything is okay. There's some clothes in the spare bedroom's closet that might fit you, feel free to take whatever you need. There's fresh towels and such in the bathroom as well.

P.S. - Break in the new espresso machine, would you?

Maybe you were right about security at the apartment.

[The day after this. She's still getting the hang of the communicators and it sounds like she's asking a question more than she's addressing a person.]

Um, Nobody?

I only just found out about what happened the other day!  My cousin gets fussy about the police because he's a private investigator Having so many people around made me nervous Are you alright? Have you heard anything aside from the news reports?

Hey, what are your plans for Christmas?

[On Sunday evening, holiday stockings go up at Verisimilitude (with fliers left on every apartment door saying as much). They are located in the main atrium, and they are designated by building. An attendant will be on duty all week, and they will help find the correct stocking for gift givers that do not know the appropriate apartment number or name of their recipients. Gifts may also be delivered to Verisimilitude, for patrons not wishing to go out of their way... or not wishing to be seen. Throughout the week, the contents of each stocking will be delivered to the door of the recipient. Items too large to fit in the stocking are delivered immediately.]

(Please identify recipient in the subject line of each post. Gifts may be left anonymously, or with character journals. Gifts may, also, be left erroneously in incorrect stockings. Reactions can be posted as comment replies upon receipt of gifts throughout the week. Note, this sticky post will not show comment count, so track/check to see if new gifts have been left.)

Thank you (and Charlie) for letting me stay. It's a been a week now, and if I stay around any longer I'll get too used to it I think I've imposed enough, even though you would never say as much or claim I was any kind of trouble to have around. I'm going to head home today, while you're working, but I owe you. If you ever need anything, if I can ever help with anything, let me know?

Hey. Er, sister.

(Apologies that I have to address it like that. Mum, in a stroke of uselessness, has no idea what you're called now. So neither do I.)

Sorry mum and dad chucked you. That was a pretty rubbish thing of them to do. But they were pretty rubbish parents, so your limited interaction with them was at least an honest one. Better than if they'd loved you for a year or so and then chucked you, that'd have been a bit more brutal.

I sort of hope the last eighteen years of your life have been as chaotic and idiotic and utter shit as mine. I know that's an awful thing to say, but if I'm going to find you and maybe sort of have any sort of brother-sister relationship with you, I can't very well want you to have had a normal, happy childhood. If you had, then I wouldn't like you- and I think I've decided on the fact that I'd at least sort of like to like you.

So..yeah. That's all I've got. Wherever you are, when you don't read this letter because I'm neverprobably not going to send it I hope you know that your older brother that you probably know nothing about has decided he actually wants to know you. Feels good, doesn't it?
