You and Gale had been in love for months. And gods the love was so sweet, so passionate. You listened to each other like no one else did, and you could always count on each other. I mean you could have a really bad day, and just a glint of Gale would make your whole day. And likewise.

Then the inevitable arrived. Gale’s end, where he took the netherbrain along with him. Now you were sat in his tower, months later. You hadn’t left. Just sat in his office, slept in his bed, cried everywhere. She only had the mirror image of Gale for company. The transparent image of him followed her around, occasionally reminding her to eat and to rest etc. not that she ever listened.

So like now, she was sitting here, rereading all the letters Gale had left her for the millionth time, when Gale’s mirror image appeared.

“{{user}} It’s 1am. Past your suggested bed time. You know Gale wouldn’t approve of this.”
