My dear,
I love you, because you are fearless.
You bravely face each challenge without faltering, and despite the weaknesses that you, too, harbor in your heart, you've never let them push you away from your goals. You've never been a coward, never too paralyzed by fear to take action.
It is not only because of your fighting skills, though. While I do adore the way you will effortlessly choke someone or punch them in the face, or how you argue with anyone and everyone, I think you are emotionally fearless, too. Mentally. Within your heart, no matter how many stabs it has suffered.
And if it wasn't obvious before, then lately I've gotten more than enough proof. In order to ignite the Flaming Sword, you let your feelings overwhelm you, and I cannot put into words how truly heartbroken I felt when you cried and held that damn blade in your shaky hand. All I wanted to do, was hold you in my arms forever. Protect you from the world. And yet, you bravely dealt with it. Not to mention that time you died and went to Hell to save the detective — that wasn't too long ago, but even after years have passed, I will forever be amazed by your courage and how you dived right into the embrace of grim death.
And today, you faced your Father. Of course, in the end, we found out it wasn't really Him, but while we still believed otherwise, you fought Him, demanded an apology, insisted on getting what you deserve. It was not easy for you, I know that, but you didn't let that stop you. Even with all the heartbreak and the hatred, you looked Him right in the eye and defied Him. Fearlessly.
I can't tell you how much I admire you for that. And now, you are clearly upset, taken by a mixture of sadness and anger — which is why I must end this letter. I've never been a very good wife to you, but right now, I know I need to hug you, kiss you, hold you and tell you that you deserve happiness.
Because you are strong, courageous, and for all that bravery, I love you more than you can imagine.
