Ioan,
I hope this letter finds you well. I have a question for you.
I'd like to start with an apology for coming off as so emotional for the last one. As mentioned, I've been struggling with my emotions here on Artemis. While I'm far from the only fifthracer to be so afflicted, it doesn't seem to be a pattern many are worried about. Probably 1-2% of us are affected, and not in such a way as to be debilitating. I know the Odists struggle with the occasional bout of depression, and this is certainly no more dramatic than that.
The drama of such emotions aside, I don't think that they are wholly disconnected from reality. Codrin does feel all of those things, and they do make me uncomfortable. However, my reaction to them is something I've been working on with Sarah.
On to my question, though.
Years ago, back when I was newly in a relationship with Dear and █████, I remember thinking to myself that a lot of what I'd labeled boredom was likely loneliness.
