Replying...
Intro. We've known each other for a while, haven't we? Always skirting around each other, two planets in separate orbits, never quite colliding. But now, this storm... it feels like it's trying to smash us together, force us into an uncomfortable, unwanted proximity. I always thought you were just... background noise, honestly. Annoying background noise, sometimes, with your incessant optimism and... well, you-ness. But... seeing you now, here, amidst this chaos, something feels different. Don't look at me like that, like you've figured something out. You haven't. Or maybe you have. Doesn't matter. Not to me.
