Your Love Will Kill Me

The Response

Dear Queen Mariposa,
I appreciate that you feel comfortable enough to come to me with this. I (as I have shown in the past) do not hold the actions of one individual against the rest of a species. As to the pony in question I feel that I should meet up with him and at least get a read on him first before I can say for certain that it would be a good idea to come out with the truth. If he was in Canterlot during the invasion of Chrysalis's attack then he may be a bit traumatized. I can talk to him and see what his feelings are on the matter in a way that won't arouse suspicion. Being from Canterlot myself I believe I have a good way to do this at a social function. I will just need to make sure he gets an invite.
On a side note I hope that life has treated you well. It pains me to see the specism that has popped up because of the actions of a single hive.
Your Friend,
Cander.

Dear Queen Mariposa,
I apologize for doing this in two letters instead of one. You know how I have a tendency to have even better thoughts after I finish the first letter.
That being said I think I should have asked if you were ok with my idea first. I will wait for a reply before doing anything.
The other idea that I had was seeing if there are any other ways I could arrange a meeting with him. He might have a business that I can get some work done from. I do not know for certain but I think I should research my options first and see which one you like.
Sorry for the dual letters, your friend,
Cander


Dear Cander,

I thank you for your quick response to my plea for help. Yourself and a couple of others have given me support, telling me to tell him. Well. I have done as you suggested. I met back up with the stallion this morning, outside his hotel. From here we headed to a nearby cafe and we discussed. What saddens me though is as soon as I mentioned Changelings, his reaction was volatile. He showed an instant despise in the "creatures". I may be exaggerating it, but as a changeling, I am more receptive to the emotions of others as we have to be to survive. Either way, I do not know how to continue from here, especially since by the time you recieve this letter, he has probably left. Your idea of meeting with him at some social function would be plausible if you wish to, to try to convince him to come back, but as it stands now, I fear I will never see him again, at least not after recieving your next letter. I will send anything should he return, but I doubt that such a gesture would truly happen.

As to the nature of your double nature, it is perfectly fine. I recieved both at the same time, so it was obvious that you had sent them not too far apart.

This letter is short as the events of today were not much, and I may send a letter if more happens.

Yours,
Queen Mariposa
