So... someone told me you're in the hospital, Heroman. Got hurt on a job or something. Maybe you won't get this, but I guess I need someone to talk to and the people in my life are a bit... complicated.

I got hurt, a few days after we met. Someone found my hidey hole and broke in and when I came back they got scared or something and shot me. In the arm luckily. I stabbed him back, and never saw him again. Some nice woman I met who sorta knows you who also has a car, well, I called her and she took me to the hospital with Necklace and Rocks waiting for me. Necklace is this guy I tried to steal from on the street but I messed up. Anyway, he was nice and bought me a gaudy necklace. Rocks is... Well, she's just some girl who has decided that, for the time being, I'm like, her project or something.

I don't want to be anyone's project.

Anyway, since then people keep dangling all these things I can't have in front of me. School. College. Education. Life off the streets. And here I am, all gimped up and unable to steal. I sleep on a couch they offered me, look for jobs to pretend I'm a normal girl, but I'm not. I'm a street rat, and I expect you know better than they do what happens to a bad thief on the streets.

World is sorta falling down round my head and I don't know how I'm gonna keep moving and surviving. You said I was smart. I had potential. I don't even know anymore.

I hope you get better, Heroman. I could use a little saving. Or maybe just someone who knows better than them what it's like to have to use your hands like this to live.

I went to see you today. Oquirrh suggested it. Before we went to buy you flowers and gifts. So when you wake up and see the octopus, that's me. But...

The flower shop, you know, it had these small flowers. Jasmine. We got you a pot of that. My mom loved Jasmine I think. The house smelled like it. I miss her.

Wake up soon, okay? I'm scared and I'm hurt and I want my Heroman to be strong and prove that I can keep going on. Your boyfriend stays at your side too. Wake up for him at least, okay?

Roxy walked out on me today. I have nothing. Nowhere. I...

What do I even do?

Roxy called. Somehow she thinks I'm coming back. Nothing that she says makes sense.

I have a new home now. A man named Jersey offered me a job and a home. I took it. It's just courier work, but it's stuff. I'm going to do it. I'm going to survive.

I'm working for a mercenary. Sometimes I think that should bother me. But, well, you're a mercenary, right? I used to think they just get you killed, but Necklace and Oaks and...

Wash, your friend, he bought me this necklace. It broke the other day. I couldn't get all the beads back. Some lady helped me. I ran and I hid and I cried over the beads and... God what do I do?

World feels weird, Heroman. It's like... everywhere I look there are just more people to disappoint. I think I want to do more with myself, and now I'm making a bit of legit money, but I don't know what to do, yanno? What does a girl like me even do with herself?

I miss you. I wish we could talk.

Wake up, okay?

Oquirrh says she wants to teach me to drive. I guess it's reasonable with me doing this courier work. But I don't know that I want to know how, right? It's like... offering me this invitation to run away. Run far and hard until I can find somewhere that there is no one but me. Gulch has been nothing but trouble lately.

But I'm going to do it. Maybe it's for the best. Besides, if I do this, she's actually going to ask your friend Necklace teach me how to use a knife to defend myself. Upsides abound.

Wake up soon. I miss you.
