Stormrage was happy to know that Metalsnap had indeed changed and was willing to talk with him, just knowing that this former bully had turned friendly was good enough for him, even if that change of cost came at such a high personal cost to Snappy. When he was done writing his letter back, he felt the sudden need to doodle something. He spent a good ten minutes Sketching, refining, inking, and detailing a simple Tweedle sketch and wrote something along the lines of "oh! And I made this doodle for you, I hope you like it!". He then hopped up, folded and wax-sealed the letter, and merrily gave it to a messenger. "Send this to my new friend Snappy,.. mkay?" Stormy said politely to the messenger tweedle, who saluted and flew off to the nearest post office. "Oh,.. uh,.. the salute wasn't really needed- but uh,.. okay!.." Stormrage said in a rather stunned, but calm tone, before going back to his room.

As the years went by exchanging letters, years to decades, then decades to centuries, Metalsnap started to feel... something... about his new pen pal. At first, it felt like nothing, just a brief thought, but nothing more, but as time slowly marched on, the feeling grew more, and more. He started to hide it, why was he feeling that way, how would the public feel?!? Was he,.. falling in love,.. with Stormrage?!? But why? He used to hate him when they were both kids, and he was lucky that he'd gotten that letter from Stormrage a long time time ago in the first place! He stuffed his feelings to the back of his mind, no-one needed to know, at least, not yet... but when will they find out?..

Author's note: sorry about this chapter, I had no motivation to write it ☹️ and I rly wanted to get to the juicy parts ASAP. But when I get to the next chapter, expect things to get traumatic for Stormy (the timeline of this novel thing goes through things pre-established events of the characters' lore in FoC, so ogs who are already familiar with the events of FoC know what's coming up next (: )
