I’m here. I’m so sorry. I’m here, I ran as fast as I could. I’m so sorry. I’ll try harder. I’m coming. If I get faster, it’ll work. If I try harder I can save you. I haven’t left you, I’m here. I’m so sorry. I’ve failed you endlessly. I can fix it this time. I swear.

Your Sunlight, still here.

also sorry for the confusion ! um , freddy fivebear is a joke name for freddy fazbear ! hes a robot bear and one of my favorite characters ever :D

i really dont know how i got through but ill try to figure it out so more people can stop by . from what ive gathered it seems awfully lonely .

>[echo]:_ no you don't understand, im not supposed to be able to receive anything. i... i can't tell if this is exciting or terrifying? definitely confusing, i'll have to check the security.

>[echo]:_ my own confusion aside, do you at least have a name i can refer to you as? your messages don't show one oddly enough.

>[echo]:_ it's... it's not too bad here? not that i can really say much in my current position. im alive if that counts for anything.

>[echo]:_ robotic bear hu? sounds wildly impossible and mildly impressive, i'll give you that.

>[echo]:_ i think i might know who helped you get through and i will be talking to him about it later. just don't get caught wherever you are and be safe, yeah?

cannon trinkets: teagans yellow bandana. i have no idea where he even got it from, but we would pass it back and forth whenever one of us needed a little extra hope. even after what happened to him, it became a promise of sorts, a reminder to keep escaping and keep moving forward. it was always around my wrist. after the battle, i think torchbearer and i both kept small pieces of the ned antlers. his was tied to his torch i think, but i kept mine tied as a trinket hanging from my belt.

cannon habits: in dema i had a habit of walking to the necropolis and just walking amongst the gravestones. sometimes i'd even leave a flower on the graves of those i knew. neonkeeper never had a problem with it, she was very understanding about it. out in trench i had a habit of messing with the bandana around my wrist or picking at the tape on my jacket. i also had a habit of staying up late just to see the stars, something no one could see within dema.

Happy New Year. I wish it could’ve been with you. I hope the year was kind, same as the one to come. To my Banditos, I wish the same. Never stop being who you are. Never stop fighting for your joy. Your life is beautiful. Cherish it and share it with others. That’s all I could ask of you.

Missing you all. Come home soon.
