[There used to be a whole bunch, but Luke's since crossed it out and has one final page for Adam.]
"According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs and a head with two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two separate parts, condemning them to spend their lives in search of their other halves....and when one of them meets the other half, the actual half of himself, whether he be a lover of youth or a lover of another sort, the pair are lost in an amazement of love and friendship and intimacy and one will not be out of the other's sight, as I may say, even for a moment... Love is simply the name for the desire and pursuit of the whole. Love is born into every human being; it calls back the halves of our original nature together; it tries to make one out of two and heal the wound of human nature. And so, when a person meets the half that is his very own, whatever his orientation, whether it's to young men or not, then something wonderful happens: the two are struck from their senses by love, by a sense of belonging to one another, and by desire, and they don't want to be separated from one another, not even for a moment. Love is the name for our pursuit of wholeness, for our desire to be complete."
-Plato, The Symposium.
Thank you, I think, doesn't summarize everything I have to say. But that does.
So you're the one who gave him room to choose to save himself. Nice to meet you. We'll never actually meet and what a pity that is. Been borrowing Adam for a couple of weeks, but I'll return him in one piece, don't worry about that.
When we leave this game and get separated, Adam's going home to you and I'll probably never get to see him again. Things aren't easy for guys like me and Adam, and I'm sure you know that. But you better stick with him until the end, Lynch, or I will reincarnate myself and hunt your ass down.
But he seems to be happy with you so maybe I shouldn't worry about that either. By the time he returns to you, Adam's going to be a different person. Not a better one, because that implies there was something wrong with him. Is your boyfriend a jackass sometimes? Yeah, sometimes he drives me insane and sometimes I want to shove him in a closet and leave him there for a while. ...but he's also brave and smart and someone I've decided to protect, and someone I hope to remember for a long time. He's someone who's reminded me of who I'm supposed to be and I'm grateful for that more than I'd ever tell him, and Adam, I know you're probably going to read this at some point so...there you go.
This isn't a letter about "I hope you know how lucky you are" or anything like that. This is a letter to say I hope you continue to take care of him but also let him keep growing. A lot's happened here for us. I'll just have to imagine what kind of person he'll be when I leave.
PS please consider getting better taste in music, I don't know how he sleeps through this shit.

Guess this means we have to play nice now, huh? Game on, Lynch.
