 Wall of Wishes Akira had just skittered back into her little cave outpost. She had been busy djing all day and just managed to get some paper to make an envelope. She pulled out some markers and pens from her drawer and began to decorate the letter with various musical emblems and even a little sketch of herself from her set in Harbor earlier in the year, as she felt...

“Ah honey, would you still love me if I was a Boolew?”   This was the sort of question Clicks always expected from Miel, odd, a bit silly, and very, very earnest. They’d come to know the other Xero to be quite sweet over the last few years they’d been together, and with a sigh Clicks would find a suitable answer for their partner’s wandering ...

To the lovely shining star, Candice, Oh gosh the idea of you actually reading this letter I wrote... I can't stop squealing!! I know you must get TONS of fan mail so maybe you'll just look at this and smile and add it to the pile which is ok, it's definitely fine if you never actually read this. But if you're reading this right now I would be so freaking honored!! Ok I've got to get it together, this is like my fourth attempt at writing this, but I'm just going to go for it. You're lik...

  Dear Copper, Hi bro!! How are you doing out there near the big blue? Your little sis has been doing good over here, been busy fulfilling orders and all that you know me to do!! The forest has been as quiet and quaint as it’s ever been, some days it’s chirping with the wildlife, and others it’s all rainy and soggy, and wet, so I can’t go on my usual hike an...

Ziggy let out a relaxed sigh, settling down into the worn cushions of his favorite armchair. He set his cup of ru berry tea on the side table, next to his carefully arranged stack of stationary and stamps. This month, he had picked out envelopes with an adorable dyno beeble print- he hoped the recipients would appreciate them as much as he did. He opened the drawer to the table and...

Dear ???,       I am grateful for all that you've shown me. You've shown me that not all Xeros are cruel and unkind creatures. You have truly saved me from myself. I have never felt so much better than when I am with you. I appreciate you and your kindness. You have a wonderful gift, a gift of healing other Xero's hearts. It is a rare gift but you know exactly how to use it. You slithered into my life like it was some source of jo...

Dear little Ziggy/Me,   Well, hi! I bet you never expected to receive a letter like this before (even though you will probably never get this). I saw a video the other day of a fella who made a video talking to his future self as a kid; then reacting to it as an adult in the future. I thought it was a fun concept and decided it might be fun to try myself! Heck, maybe I'll find this letter years down the line and get to write to myself again! Anyways, I'm sure y...

Dear Urho I know It’s summer season and you are probably knee deep in helping every tourist and passerby at the docks, but I wanted to take a few minutes of your time to tell you about my travel. I’m currently in a warzone. I’m also at least fifteen times bigger than the little critters going at it, so do not worry for my safety. I came here to search for a pair of earrings. How big are the earrings then? You are probably wondering. And that’s the awkward part, the jewel...

[The following note? Letter? Letter. The following letter is roughly written on borrowed stationary, with crossed-out words and ink blots. It is folded up carefully and placed in what Eber hopes is the right mailbox. All capitalization and punctuation is as written, for emphasis] Hi. So. Um. This is a weird note to leave and I hope you aren't freaked out by it, but I happened to...overhear you. Ranting in the memorial garden, the other day. And I wanted to say: ...

It was late and the club was nearly empty. The festival outside of town drew the crowds this time of year and Vexa was often left simply cleaning glasses and the counter over and over to cure her border. The short desert Xero wandered back and forth for a while, cleaning this and that, organizing the bottles of drink mixes and spirits before a familiar voice rang out behind her.    Instantly her biolum beamed bright blue as she flipped around and saw the most wonderf...

A sigh escaped Mudball, the chair below him making a soft creak as he sat down at his cluttered desk. Empty water bottles and miscellaneous computer equipment had to be pushed aside to make room for the empty piece of paper that now lay in front of him. He found it hard to form words, to come up with something worth writing, so he started out slow. Dear Vampire … ...

Badger had just settled down, throwing his bags beside his claimed bed.  He glanced at his luggage for a moment, trying to remember what he packed since he usually doesn't wear any clothes. He shrugged it off and flopped into bed.  Harvey was on the opposing bed, already unraveling all their packed snacks. "Want any?" She mumbled, cheeks slightly filled. "Itfs so gawd!"  ...

There’s a sigh when the voice note begins, barely audible as the creaking noise of a chair fills the stretch of silence. A throaty hrr-hrum, commanding attention, followed closely by another sigh, like they can’t collect the words. “It’s, erm, Monday… The year is- ah, blasts,...

Andromeda sits at her desk, pen and paper sitting in front of her, her eyes trained on the family photo that sat angled at her. The dappled pelt shone softly in the lamplight as they shook their head to bring them back to where they began. They took a paw and pushed the writing utensils to the side, instead picking up her headphones and placing them in their ears, then pulling the microphone down from the lifted state it was in. Normally they sat like this for work, but instead they chose to ...
