Valentione's Day Love Letter Contest Entry Thread

[Elysia]

To my Valentione, Totonawa:

Today shall not be simply another day! Nay, for on this day, love has run aground in the Quicksand.
You, my beloved robed purveyor of adventure, shall be my true Valentione, and oh, it shall be grand.

Don’t be coy, I’ve seen the way you leer. No matter the hordes of gathered adventurers each day,
The moment I approach: a clear of the throat, a seductive turn, and your attention comes my way.

The streets of Ul’dah fill with the clamor of your adoring fans; sometimes the hubbub so thunderous,
My whole world crashes down. With token in hand, I valiantly return, my devotion to you so wondrous.

No, Totonawa, today, you might be the one I want. And I need no journal to confirm the details:
Though the merchant strip may be bustling today, you’ve been waiting for me on pins and nails.

I’ll not mince words: your stature may be minimal, but your steely resolve is a glorious sight to see.
I’ve returned countless times to your counter, and no matter the hour or day, you linger just for me.

As an aside, I must question your work conditions. What’s the point of work for money in the first place,
If you have to stand every hour of every day? Has the Eorzean mob threatened to break your tiny face?

Alas, today your evaluations shall be personal. Shall I extol my gallant virtues to you in fanciful fashion?
I’ve dodged plumes of firey beasts (despite my geographical handicap,) and started my own love faction!

I’ve braved every mission you’ve personally chosen for me, toiling ‘till I can nary draw a breath.
I’ve slashed at a gaggle of mischievous moogles; they insisted on caroling, while fighting to the death!?

I’ve stored multitudes of anima, made fortunes in fine felt, and I’ll ply every trade under the sun!
I’ll conjure, I’ll thaum, I’ll cleave, I’ll stab, I’ll defend, and I’ll sling arrows (as Cupid has already done.)

We’ll ride Goobbues higher than any camera! We’ll whisk away to Ishgard’s resort, once we’re finally able.
I’ll weave, I’ll cook, I’ll carpent, I’ll fish, I’ll mine, I’ll botanize, and smith. Though pugilism is off the table.

No Hold shall be too Dark, no Prince shall be too Pestilent. We’ll cross millions of Maws in Toto-Rak!
No Oaks shall ever hear our steps. We’ll make doublets out of Dodore, and no Cactuar shall be too Jack.

I do this all for you, my miniature angel garbed in purest white, for the day we can finally be together.
I’ll overclock our courtship so powerfully, my strides of love won’t tarry even in the harshest of weather.

And so I write this Valentione for you, my bite-sized seraph, to hurry you away from where evil may lurk.
Set your attunement to “love”; we’ll leave the Twelve behind! … as soon as Eustace lets you off work.

Greetings All!

Llyssa Snowplover here, (Have to use my brother's account >.< )

This is the poem/song/whatever I wrote for Thancred.
Hope he likes it.^.^


"North Star"

Sometimes I think about the future, it's true I, ♪
Look for ways to be reflected, in your eyes. ♪
And then you save me, with your "maybe's" and your "allright's" ♪
It's not a day without your sunlight. ♪

We can say, that we always knew, ♫
This life was only meant for me, and you, to do. ♫

Sometimes I'm lost, can't find my way back, out too far, ♪
You'll guide me back into your strong arms, my North Star. ♪
And then you save me, with your bravery and your sharp knives, ♪
I'll run away with you to blue skies. ♪

We can say, that we always knew,♫
This life was only meant for me, and you, to do.♫

xoxo,

Llyssa

To my beloved Admiral,

I hope this letter finds you well, and should it not, may it improve it in some way. As you may know, Valentione’s Day is upon us. It is the day to declare one’s love to the world and let hidden feelings be known. Rarely do I care for the holiday, but this year I have a declaration worth making. I have found a treasure no sea dog worth his stones could price. I speak of a treasure I would protect with every fiber of my body and soul.

What treasure could drive a woman to bother her Admiral, you ask? The answer is simple:

You.

I confess that I have a girl crush on you. I know it is foolish to love one such as yourself – someone so far beyond my reach. I do not seek to possess you like most do a treasure, but instead I seek only to be honest with you. It is my greatest wish to be there for you in whatever capacity you desire. To simply speak your name to you as a friend would honor my heart. To embrace you when you need a moment’s reprieve from your duties would be a treasure no coffer could bestow me. Anything more would rival the sea’s passion.

I could write page after page about how your beauty rivals Menphina, or how you exude a strength that may even inspire The Navigator herself. But I would rather gaze into your eyes and say them to you in-person, even with one of your muskets aimed at my heart. You are my guiding star, Merlwyb. What you do with this confession is your own decision, but knowing I may have brought even the faintest of smiles to your lips…. It is worth it.

But I will not waste more of your time, as I know you are a busy lady. Happy Valentione’s Day, Admiral Merlwyb. Please know that you have me as a Valentione until the sea swallows all. I only hope that one day, I may say that I have you as mine.

Forever yours,

Nyzira Frostblood

How many days has it been?
How many months since I last saw you?
The reason to see you is gone,
No more offers are coming,
The facade is fading,
my vulnerable body wishes for its protector,
Its hard to breathe,
Your presence holds me together,
The others have cast us aside,
They only see missions and quests,
No time for love,
No time for happiness,
Only the cold stain of crimson on my body,
Though,
There will come a day,
When the fighting ends,
The peoples are free,
When they all have the time,
To be together,
The warmth,
The joy,
The love,
I look forward to those days,
Oh my beloved,
Aubrey,
Your hands hold my heart and my life,
Till the end of time,
Wish for those days of piece,
So that there will be love.

[SIZE="5"]A Real Love Letter...

I am not big and strong,
not the bane of beasts.
I am not stalwart guard,
not a keeper of peace.
But before before you dismiss me,
think upon me unkind.
Let me plant one thought,
that it bloom in your mind...

I love you Ethelinda. Not an opo-opo.

Of you are my thoughts
both naughty and pure.
I am only lovesick
yet no alchemy cure.

These lillies for you
This letter's for you.
Find me unworthy,
I'll better for you.

I have strong lance arm.
The other's to caress,
,and comfort that heart of gold
just beneath your chest

For you I'd trade
my Life of Adventure.
Be your retainer
if your love I could indenture.

To Menphina I pray
may she hear me above
Let there be such a task.
That reward be your love

Guildleve or quest,
to Mor Dhona I'd ride
For your goodness and beauty
no mask hopes to hide...

My love always Ethelinda. May we be together soon...

Isleen,
You: The beady-eyes, pig-nosed stable girl in Limsa Lominsa.
Me: The villainous looking elezen in gilded swimwear.
As you begrudgingly handed over the reigns of my new chocobo, our hands briefly met and sparks flew. I as if Menphina herself blessed that moment for us.

A poem for you:
I'm so ugly
And so are you
We would fit so snugly
Don't you think so too?

My Dearest F'lhaminn,

My heart burns for our love with the intensity of a volcanoe's floes.
I feel an indescribable pull to you, down to my very toes.

I would love to share your spotlight,
And for one day, your love to burn as bright.

Tonight, I ask, will you be mine?
For I wish to be your Valentine.

Yes or no, my love stays true,
For there will be no other in my heart, only you.

Yours Forever,
Ahmya Lozarren
