Dear Luna,
I’m sorry I couldn’t be there this year to spend Christmas with you, but duty calls and SHIELD wouldn’t have forgiven me if I declined the mission they put me working on. I was really hoping to spend Christmas at Xavier’s, possibly and hopefully hanging out with you, perhaps drinking some hot chocolate or eggnog. However, this doesn’t mean I forgot about you. With this letter I leave you two presents. One is a very cozy and totally cheesy christmas sweater! But wait, it’s actually Doctor Who themed, my nerd friend. I expect to see you wearing it when I return, by the way! You’re not getting out of that one. But the real present is actually the Sonic Screwdriver I got for you. I was scared it wouldn’t get here in time, but it did, so I’m forever grateful to the post office! Have a Merry Christmas, Luna,
Love,
-Dee
Luna smiled wide as she slipped the sweater over her head. Looking in the mirror, the ridiculous design made her laugh. It was perfect, and it was perfectly Del. She inhaled deeply. It smelled like packing paper, of course. She tried to imagine where SHEILD might have sent her. Maybe she could send a picture... Unwrapping the other bundle front he box, her grin grew. The press of a button rewarded her with a small green light and one of the most recognizable sounds in nerd history. And most exciting. If she knew where Del was, she could send her gift. But she'd have to wait, and Luna would have to wait to express her gratitude. She hoped it would be soon. She never thought she'd miss the crazy blonde so damn much.
Look at how celebratory that font is wow. This is so cliche but in all honesty I made this blog as a backup, and I thought Aphrodite was going to be sort of a joke and not something I actually cared about. As stupid and pathetic as it may sound, Aphrodite is so much more than just a character to me now. I can't watch an Amber Heard movie without seeing the character as Aphrodite, and the only reason why she's so real now is because of all my followers and roleplaying partners. The initial creation time of this blog was around April 2014 when it was for John Frusciante. At that time, I was only roleplaying in order to feel like I was a part of a certain group of friends who were roleplayers. I never followed up with it. The account had 3 followers (one of which was my personal blog) when I came back to it to create Aphrodite. Since then, I have gained over 400 followers in only about 2 months of solid activity. And now it's a new year. I've met so many people on here that I'm so grateful for, and most of you are present on my previous follow forevers. But this one is a fresh start, and I'm going to include a masterlist of everyone I've ever wanted to roleplay with, people I love roleplaying with, the character interactions I enjoy the most, and everything in between. Honestly, as much as doing drafts and everything drains my energy, it improves my morale to see the words " _____ reblogged your post and added:" in my notifications. I get so excited when I read a new reply, it's like opening a Christmas gift every few days. You're all so wonderful, and I hope you know that you're all so special to me. Thank you <3.

You guys are the people I interact with in and out of character. I have so much love for you guys and the way you play your characters, it's unreal.
itsabloodygurl: What can I say. On my last follow forever that you were in, I stated that I was hoping Aphrodite would begin to trust Newt a little more than she did at the time. Of course that was when we only had The Glade thread. And now look at it. Aphrodite's half dead after attempting to rob a bank and putting her life in Newts hands. Man you're such a dedicated roleplayer, and I totally understand how you feel with the girl in the glade shit because it's the same for me with literally every "The Walking Dead" thread I have. I praise you for being such a good sport, and I hope we can do some more threads when you have the time because I really do enjoy Aphrodite and Newts interactions. So far him and Callie are the only ones she trusts and feels comfortable with.
bowgirlxbowden: Get out ur dumb. Nah I love you. You never fail to satisfy my ship needs whether it's Callie and Aphrodite or Callie and Dean. Also we put up with each other's personal shit and there isn't a lot more I can say. We started out not really talking to each other and only sending each other in character ask memes until my dog died and you came to the rescue. Anyways I guess out of a negative comes a positive. I'm so glad we're friends too and good luck dealing w/ reading TMR series. It gets hella stressful and I promise you will die.
Ｍａｃｈｅｔｅｓ
This is a select group of people that I admire dearly and some day hope to get the fuck on your god damn level because y'all are the best.
miinnho: You're my favorite Minho and you comment on my mun photos come love me and do somethin w/ muses ok bye.
theblackfleur: Your replies are intimidating bc they're so detailed and beautiful and so well executed and then mine are just a pile of slop and even though I try really hard to make them good they will never amount to yours ok. Also I'm hella excited for this thread we got goin' because it's a situation Aphrodite has never really handled before.
teresatheimmune: Ayyy you are so sweet and nice and understanding and I really hope that Aphrodite and Teresa will get along okay but you got her in a good situation where she's sober so you know, she'll be less likely to punch Teresa in the face.
taylor-hawkins-the-golden-boy: Dude you've been following me since I had zosoh and mannnn you're the raddest okay I love Taylor so much and you do such an amazing job of roleplaying him love me.
Ｂｏｗｉｅ Ｂｌａｄｅｓ
Aka the people that I notice on my dash and notifications and I would like to mention you here because you're all wonderful and please come message me out of character and stuff.
I’m saddened that we can’t spend Christmas together, but not to worry, this is simply a minor setback. Once you return, we’ll do it properly! Cake, Christmas tree, eggnog, the whole ‘drinking hot chocolate with marshmallows’ thing. But of course, it’s not Christmas without presents, so I got you a little something I thought could be useful for you. Yes, it’s an Easy Bake Oven. Practice makes perfect, right? I’m sure you have it in you to be an amazing baker. But really, make sure you use protection when turning that thing on. And now, for the real present. Spending Christmas alone is never fun, I should know. So when you reach your room tonight, make sure you’re ready to see a few familiar faces. They’re set to return in two days, I asked Xavier to help me with that. So please don’t be upset that I brought them here, but I didn’t want you to spend Christmas alone. And I knew you missed them. Enjoy!
Love,
-Dee

Merry Christmas, my nerd counterpart! No but seriously, I wanted to give you David Wenham, but apparently he’s not for sale? I don’t know how that works, specially since Faramir would’ve been the best present I could’ve given you, but alas, I was limited. However, I do have something else to give you. Hope you enjoy the Evenstar I got for you! Next best thing, I suppose. (I really wanted to give you Faramir, okay.) Also, a little something for you to perhaps use this year, or maybe next year. A Bilbo Baggins Christmas Tree ornament! Because Bilbo Baggins, am I right.
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas,
Love, Dee
[text; Delilah Gamgee]: I might be in love with you.
[text; Delilah Gamgee]: You just get me.

[text; Delilah Gamgee]: David will be mine eventually, no worries.
[text; Delilah Gamgee]: AND BILBO FREAKING BAGGINS!
ƓєηтƖє ωιηɗѕ carried strands of blonde hair astray as the sun peeked through the abandoned valley's horizon in the distance. Mornings were her favourite. It was a time to relax, and enjoy the serenity that would later be destroyed by rotting flesh and flies. Sometimes she would walk great distances until the sky faded to a bluish hue and life would return to normal. However normal was not normal anymore.
Normal used to be waking up in a bed with fleece blankets wrapped around you, the quiet humming of electricity creating a special kind of comforting ambience. Now, normal was not at all the same. Instead of a bed made from memory foam with soft blankets, there were beds made out of leaves and your own tattered fabric was your blanket. Few were lucky enough to find a house that was out of harms way- Aphrodite was not one of them. But she took comfort in sleeping beneath a duvet of stars creating yellow necklaces across the sky. She liked the crickets chirping all around, and she liked the leaves that rustled beneath. To her, it was normal, and normal was just fine.
Though on that same windy day, change awaited. But of course, she did not know anything but what has aways been. So the sun carried on it's rising, the wind continued it's journey, the sky soon changed it's skin and the day began.
Stepping from damp grass onto cool concrete, Aphrodite took a look at the path she would soon be travelling. A town, with red brick buildings and hidden alleyways decorating the sides of the street. It was quiet, with the occasional walker dragging itself about. But again, that was normal; so normal that she didn't even bother killing it, even as it trudged towards her. She carried numerous weapons, only ever used her machete. It was a favourite- with a long black blade and a dark green handle. The best protection was always the quietest.
Sore feet carried her farther down the road, taking left and right turns whenever she pleased. It was more of a saunter than an average step, until the sound of a aluminum garbage can hitting the cement caused her to halt in place. Her eyebrow raised as she placed the machete in it's sheath and instead reached for her gun. With a firm grip, she walked forward, not making a single noise. Whatever was in the alley would be dead as soon as it crossed her path. Then as it's footsteps grew louder, what she thought was a walker proved to be a human being. That was when Aphrodite hesitated to shoot, for she was far too confused to pull the trigger.
"If ya got any weapons, ya best be droppin 'em b'fore there's a bullet in ya forehead"
