#not soft

Also I derailed so hard in the tags💀

[slipped into Evelyn’s hand as Miriam heads out to her workshop. There’s a  note that has been folded and refolded several times]

Evelyn,

Before you even gave me my gift, I was just thinking about the fact that we’ve known each other for a year, now, and what a strange and wonderful year it has been because of that. Because of you. You have changed my life in ways I did not think it could be changed. Is it cliched to say that you make it feel like a life? This necklace was mine. It was a graduation gift (I always loved the way that rubies and diamonds looked together). It belonged to a  woman with a heart that had not yet shattered and stopped beating, a  woman with hope and happiness. I’d like it to belong to you. Being near you, knowing you, has made me feel like that woman again, and I’ve felt like, for so long, that she’d been lost to me. So thank you. I find it hard to put such things into words like this, honestly, sincerely, but here I am.

With utmost sincerity,

But also, it would certainly be fucked up and I feel like if copyJackie sees original Jackie he'd get one of those existential crisis thing.

Skye, I actually laughed at this crack idea. I don't know why, but the image of Anti fucking up so bad that even a being that was made to love him leaves him to pursue the original version of himself is really funny to me. But, having already put thoughts into this fucked up "what if" of an au, I can say confidently that copy Jackie wouldn't want and maybe not even able to get angry at Anti. He's like a lovey dovey version of the hero, it also helps that Anti probably is a big sappy pushover with him. (Unfortunately the other copies aren't that fortunate ">_>)
