Did you like the burger I made you? I mean, it took me sooo long to make it—especially for you.
It would be such a shame if it went to waste…
*fake cries*
"CUTIE????"
I, um... I-I still haven't... well, actually, I... How do I say this...? 👉👈
I was going to eat it, I-I swear! But, um, I noticed that the 👛Gloink Queen was feeling down, s-so I... gave it to her instead? >< She really seemed to like it, though, heheheh...!
Hey there, Gangle! Valentine’s Day is coming up, and I noticed a cutie like you doesn’t have a date.
So… wanna be mine~? I’ll take you out somewhere fun. What d’you say?
A... a-a date...?? You're asking me to go out with 🐍you??? I- gosh, I-I don't know what to- I wasn't expecting anyone to... to actually...
...
H-how do I know you won't just... leave me waiting? O-or worse? I know you've been hanging out with 🐰Jax recently. The- the original Jax, I mean. How do I know you aren't leading me into another one of his pranks...?
*She slips a letter under Gangle’s door before quickly leaving.*
Gangle,
I’m sorry for everything. I shouldn’t have lashed out at you. You were completely right about what you said. I could have hurt the people I care about because of my foolish decisions.
I’m also sorry for what I’m about to say, but I think it’s best if we stay broken up. I’ve come to realize that what I felt for you wasn’t really love… it was obsession. I wasn’t seeing you for who you truly are.
I don’t know if you’ll ever forgive me, but I hope one day you find someone who truly sees you and loves you for who you are.

// this ship was fun while it lasted, thanks for doing it with me🥰//
(🎩Caine's birthday party had been a sorely needed breath of fresh air for 🎀Gangle. It'd taken her mind off of things, lifting the dread and regret from her shoulders -- for a little while, at least. So when she returned to her room and picked up the letter, she was all but prepared for everything to come crashing back down.)
(Nearly an hour since, and she's still collapsed in her bed, combing over every sentence through a fountain of tears. Rushing thoughts and emotions come together and create a volatile cocktail. 🎀Gangle understands, but still finds herself devastated. She knows neither of them are at fault, but fails to rationalize it as anyone's but her own. Trapped in a whirlpool of self-pity and loathing -- mostly due to her inability to pull herself back together -- there's nothing she can do but wait out the storm...
But eventually, with a heavy heart and a splitting headache, she drags herself to her desk and gathers a pen and paper.)
To Evil Ribbit,
Thank you for understanding my concerns and reaching out with your letter. I know it wasn't easy, and I wanna try and show my solidarity by writing one too. That, and if I tried telling you all of this in-person, I'd just start crying all over again. Seriously though, you've grown a lot since we first met, and it shows through your decision, if that makes any sense at all. I want you to know I genuinely enjoyed the time we spent together, okay? So please don't beat yourself up about it. About any of this.
I wish nothing but the best for you. Take care.
- Gangle
(After rereading her own letter, diligently scanning for any mistakes, she creeps through the hall in the dead of night and slips it beneath 🐍Evil Ribbit's door. There's no going back after this, and for once... 🎀Gangle's okay with that.)
Sooo~ was the date everything you dreamed of? I made sure to pick a Japanese restaurant since you seem to adore the culture.
Although… I do wish you’d ordered more food. I guess I’ll just have to take you out again so you can get your fill, haha.
0/////0 I- y-yeah, yeah, it was a lot of fun...! The restaurant was gorgeous, I-I really liked the whole vibe, hehe! And the food was good, too, d-don't get me wrong...
(I probably would've gotten seconds if I were there by myself...)
I just- oh... O-oh! I, um- I'd love to! Sometime...! I-I mean, I'm pretty much free whenever, heheh... So it's up to you, I-I guess... I don't have any specific place in mind, either...
I kind of liked the anticipation and surprise, y'know? >w<
But, uh- I hope you had fun, too! It was really, really sweet of you to take me out like that, and... thank you ^////^
