What I specifically want for my birthday? Why? You better not be trying to get me anything because I will hurt you. Do not buy me anything.
Actually, I do know what I want for my birthday, and it won't cost you a dime.
I want to know your name.On another note, how dare you say your lyrics are bad. Do I need to call Patton to beat you or do I need to come do it myself? You're insane.
And this song is amazing! The lyrics are heartfelt and simultaneously heartbreaking. There's a story behind it that rings so clear and your word choice is impeccable. Don't you dare think your writing is bad again because what I just read was pure art and I would be honored to use it in my musical if you would let me. I have just the right character to use it for.I know that it's technically my birthday month, but ever since you've shown it to me, I could not stop thinking about you- it. About it.
Please don't kill me.With Love,
Roman Prince
Roman,
okay okay okay, so many things are running through my mind right now.Firstly, you did not! Pince, I can't decide if I should hug you or kill you. Do you know how expensive those watches are? What am I talking about you looked them up, of course you know! And you bought one! For me!? I'm losing my mind. I'll be back in an hour to finish this letter when I can think a little clearer.
(Holy shit my handwriting doesn't look like chicken scratch anymore.)
Okay, I'm better. Still over the moon though. Thank you, seriously. I think that's one of the kindest things anyone has done for me. And since you've said please, I've decided not to kill you. Yet.
Seems like we're going to respond backwards in this letter then. I'm glad that you enjoyed my song. It's one of my personal favorites. Maybe when we meet in person, I'll show you the music I have for it. And you are welcome to use it in your musical, Princey. By all means.
Also no, neither you nor Patton need to fight me.As for my name, we'll see about that, Princey. I'm not sure.

Jack Skellington,
I'm glad you like the watch and have decided to not kill me. I couldn't help myself. When you told me about it, you sounded excited and you mentioned that you would get it eventually but not yet, and then the whole thing with that woman at the cafe happened and I decided I wanted to try to help in the little bit that I could, so this was how.When we do meet, I would love for you to show me the music to your song. I love the lyrics, they fit so well, and if this were to become true and my musical gets produced, then I would like that song to be everything you've envisioned it.
When it comes to your name, that's all I want for my birthday. Of course, it remains up to you because I understand you are nervous about it, so take your time.
Sincerely,
Roman Prince
Princey,
When exactly is your birthday? I only know that it's this month but you never told me the day.I'll think about my name, but just realize that if I tell you my name, then you have to tell me what you look like. That was our deal.
Honestly, I like our little mystery. I'm sure you have a bunch of theories on what my name is, just like I have a few ideas as to what I think you look like, and.. honestly, I'm really nervous.
