Saying Goodbye

by Curved Silence of Ishtar

Dealing with life is hard enough, but when you being illness into the mix, you never know what to expect. This is going to be a dark one, so please don't read it if you want warm fuzziness. There is not going to be a lot of that here. I have not written in a very long time, so please bear with me as I remember how to do this... Rating for cursing and dark subject matter.

Saying Goodbye

Asriel,

Hello, my friend. I know that you go by Flowey too, but you will forgive me for using your real name this once, won't you?

By the time that this gets to you, I will probably be at least a week gone. I know that I have been falling behind in my letters to you lately. I hope that you are not sad about that. You know how little I can do anymore. The only reason you were getting them at all for a while now is because Alphys agreed to take them up the mountain for me. I hope that if you saw her at all that you behaved yourself.

I am so sorry, my friend. I am sorry that I could not save you from your fate. Sorry that I couldn't find a way to repair the damage that was done to you. Sorry that I could not bring you up here with us. I missed you every day. We tried, we really did.

If it makes you feel any better, the times that I saw you when I was sending things down to you that I did see you, I saw improvement. I don't know if that means anything to you, but it meant a lot to me. I think that someday you will come up here and you will be alright.

I know you can do anything you put your mind to.

I hope that the gift that Alphys sent down to you made it alright. I would hate to think that anything broke...

Either way, this will be my last letter. I am sorry to leave you alone again. Please, be good.

I love you, Asriel.
