The Final Curtain (OOC...)

[Exosus]

And now it comes... that moment that has been pending so long.
The final curtain on the play that is my life here on Lit.
The audience has left the theatre and now the actors stand on the stage looking on as the lights grow dark and then... it is done.

I have been here just over a year... and during my time here I have met some of the most wonderful people I will ever meet, and engaged in adventures beyond my wildest dreams... yet there comes a time when every play must end... every day must end.

And this is my goodbye.

To all the wonderful people of Lit that I have had the pleasure of meeting, I thank you for everything. Take good care of yourselves.

Now for the personal dedications to those who truly touched me deeply. I will not use your true names here... but know that I hold each of you in my heart

Faith: My lady... my friend... Your strength has kept me going even in the bleakest moments. With you I have shared hopes, shared dreams... shared all... you are and were my soul.

Caspai: My friend, your fire and determination was an inspiration to me. Without you, some of my greatest threads would have been naught. You always will be the spirit of inspiration that burns within me.

Swashbuckler: Pirate... what can I say about you? You were the reason I strove to be the utmost to the ladies here. In my early days, I simply wanted to be half the man you were. I'm still not.
Take care my friend.

Ldy_Tehari: Mistress of the darker desires... you showed me that submission is not always destructive... I cannot thank you enough.

Ysandre: For allowing me to have my way with you, as Jack... I thank you... such trust I never felt I deserved but you gave it freely and made me someone worth being. Thank you



And finally... to the one who has held my heart since I first arrived... my lady... the one with whom my first private started... though it never did finish...
Honey_B: Words fail me, my lady... you showed me the true heart of Lit when I arrived... nurturing whatever you saw I had in me, bringing out the man. Throughout my time here, you have been the guiding light, and my heart, and so much of what I have done was done in the thought of you... I still have those roses that were given after my accident. I shall never forget you


There are many that I have not known as well as I would like; Rashid, Cat, Jinny... and some that I never gave a chance... but perhaps we shall meet again, on a new stage.


And with that, comes my final bow.

I thank you all

Simon

Be well, Ex. *smile* I am sorry that I won't be able to write again with you, but you have to do what is right for you. *smile* You were a part of a golden time here for me. Even if those memories were deleted, they are still in my heart, the good ones more than the bad. Always know that you were part of the good, never the bad.

[Ldy Tehari]

*Applauds the show. That feeling of wanting more yet knowing that it was a perfect ending still haunting me a little as I look at a dark theatre.*
Yes I would offer my throat to the wolf with the red roses.
You will always have a place in my heart and warm memories in my head. *smiling*
I wish you all the happiness.
Merry We Part

 

[Swashbuckler]

As the footlights grow dim
And the aplause resonate
On deaf ears at center stage
Tassles flutter from the trim
The Dark Knight takes a bow
And from the audience
A solemn salute of pen and sword
Like the teardrops of a kitten's meow
And the curtain falls
And the last flight
Out of Sydney calls

Farewell wherever you fare, Exosus, my brother in arms. Your flattery will be truely missed. But how could I have competed with such dark knightly charm as you posses?

Take care mate, I'll keep a burbon around for you should you ever drop by for a taste.

*sniff*

Ex, reading your words tonight brings back so many memories. Believe me, dear heart, I've gotten so much more than I've given knowing you. Perhaps the lovers we have written are star-crossed, never to finish their dance. Some things are best left to the realm of imagination and dreams. But then again, something tells me you already knew that, my lord Morpheus. I know that if don't see you again, you will forever remain in my dreams.
