A/N: Ooh, here's a really edgy one...at least, from the way I've seen some people act, I think it is.

Dear fanfiction writers,

When did it become a crime for us to be together as a couple, like we wanted to be?

Sincerely,

Matt and Sora

A/N: The show ended over a decade ago, and yet I still see some people being immature about this. Yes, the romance came pretty much out of nowhere. But isn't that the writer's fault and not the characters' fault? The point is, I've seen people flame Sorato stories and act like Taiora is the one and only truth. Ugh...people like that give the nice Taiora fans a bad name. And if you're gonna flame me for being neutral, keep in mind that you're not helping your case.

I'd like to make an aside and say this: I've heard people saying that Taiora works partly because of their crests, saying things like "Love takes courage" or something.

But think about it this way...

Love often blooms from friendship.

When you love someone, you tend to have a lot of knowledge about them.

Ideally, loving someone involves being sincere with them.

When you love someone, they know they can rely on you, and vice-versa.

Loving someone can help give you or them hope for the future.

Love can come from the light in our hearts.

And love should also involve lots of kindness.

So basically, their crests don't really matter in their love lives, and I don't see why they would.

...gah, not only do I feel like some kind of motivational speaker, but the author's note is longer than the chapter, so here's a bonus letter:

Dear fanfiction writers,

What do our crests have to do with our love lives?

Sincerely,

The DigiDestined

A/N: That's better.
