I know you don't celebrate, but I wanted to wish you a happy birthday. The noodles will have to wait until we're returned to our Ximilia, but they're coming! Don't think you're getting out of them just because we're dealing with some time travel inconveniences.
I'm happy to have been able to call you my friend for another year, Itachi.
๏ผ he will not say he is concerned for her, though he is, though he does not feel the need to hide it from wei wuxian. but her absence is a weight. ๏ผ
I remember. You and Clara made dango together. [Shortly before they were both arrested, albeit separately and one of them more intentionally than the other.]
You're worried for her. [It's understandable all things considered.]
'Better' is relative. She is very likely quite worried for us. Not to mention the way all these shards of memories are a direct violation of her privacy. If she had wished us to know these things, we would know them of her.
It is wrong. [He doesn't know if Itachi's thoughts have gone to Wei Wuxian's witnessing of that night, but it's where his own thoughts firmly lie. His stomach turns at the violation of being present for something he was never meant to see.]
It isn't our choice, but it is wrong.
I'm sure when we see her again she might need some time to process it.
Then we'll be there first. To guard them as best we can. [They couldn't keep anyone from messaging them, it was true, but that didn't mean they were entirely helpless.]
And I know you'll be there for Viveca too, when she's ready.
I think she'll appreciate getting to hear about it from someone who cares about her. [And not, his words suggest, one of the many Orbers who only turned to her when they needed something. Certainly not from anyone set on interrogating her.]
๏ผ it is not a statement he appreciates, falling too close to something like praise. he knows wei wuxian means well, but he does not wish to hear it. ๏ผ

then, eventually: ๏ผ
This time last year, we were on Viveca's world.

I intend to speak with her the moment we are returned. It may be that one of the crew that is closer with Degar than I am will do the same.

It is the least I can do.
We will speak later.
