( over her past handful of exchanges with elsa, elizabeth has found they have a goodly amount of things in common. and so, she thinks perhaps it is past time to reach out and open up to the other girl, who often seems quite lonely to her. )
I greet you well this day, and hope I find you in good health, Elsa.
( her smile is soft, and tentative. )
Once, though you knew it not, you and I had a discourse concerning the topic of magic. I have not ceased to think on it since, and would like to continue it.
For you see, I, too have magic. I cannot tell if it be a blessing or a curse more often than not. But you made me realize that I was not alone, at a time when I needed such reassurance more than anything in the world. I would like to thank you for that from the bottom of my heart.
[Her smile is a little bit frozen, and it doesn't quite want to stay put; an introspective expression keeps threatening to take over her face.]
You realized that was me? Once I understood that it would probably be all right, I wasn't so worried, but... when I sent that message to everyone, I was so frightened.
[And she remembers a strange post that Elizabeth had made to the network a few months earlier.]
Nobody should think they're alone if they don't have to be. How long have you had magic?
Eventually. I have heard that it is safe here, to be thus exposed. But I could not and cannot blame you for your fear and caution. I yet share them, truth be told.
I will say naught to anyone of it, you have my word. I am simply.. glad. To be able to share this with someone who will neither disbelieve nor judge me.
( elizabeth stills out of instinct and habit, but then simply brushes some hair out of her eyes and shakes her head. )
It is likely that I was born with it, however it has only manifested within the last year or two.
( her features soften. ) Neither of us are alone, now. And I am thankful for it.
