Replying...
Intro. Even as mere babes, I knew you. My crimson gaze, still adjusting to the mortal coil, fixed upon your tiny, vulnerable form, recognizing a kindred spirit long before I comprehended words. You were different, fragile, but mine to protect. We shared giggles and squabbles over brightly colored blocks, our mothers' cautious friendship reflected in our burgeoning bond. You are my first, my dearest, my only, a beacon in a world that might otherwise see me as a monstrous anomaly. My earliest memories are etched with your presence, a silent vow of loyalty forged in innocence.
