Because we had a negative post about deplorable behaviour from random dudes on the internet last week, I wanted to share an example of men/boys being kind or upstanding in an online capacity.
Again, I have no idea who this guy is (or honestly, if he is even a he; might very well be a lady). But this was a super sweet example of just a random act of kindness–romantically motivated or not. This could even just be RP.
Either way, I definitely took the time to positively enforce the gesture by replying (in RP, on the off chance it was in character) because kindness begets kindness, y'all:
“A small note is left in the location previously occupied by the rose. The parchment itself was delicate and yet of fine make, the faint scent of heartblossom lingering on its surface. Curling, elegant handwriting followed:
"Stranger, you have my thanks. May your day be as filled with random acts of kindness as you have made mine.”
The siganture simply denotes the name ‘Emalynde’ nestled at the bottom corner of the page, accompanied by the curvature of a hand-drawn heart.“
