Chapter Text
Liara,
I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. Trying to compose this message, always starting with your name, I can’t help but say, I love you.

I meant it when I said, “Marriage, old age and a lot of little blue children.” I really wish that I could be there for that.
I love you, Liara-
