please post on february 13. thank you, mpc!
to any caroline who may come across this post, i cannot be sure if it may be your birthday in your canon, but I recall this being your birthday in mine, so i want to wish you a pleasant birthday. i understand you might not even remember me. i was awkward and shy, and you were a light in the darkest times with your humor and your sweet side. i thought it was beautiful when you complained about people who deserved it, and i hope you know i wish i could've helped you escape aperture as i tried to help chell. you were my reason to stay, my best friend, and my favorite person. you deserve the world and more, my friend, and i hope your day is lovely. enjoy some (real) cake, and i offer you my best wishes.
sincerely, d. rattmann
