Private Letter to Yuffie Kisaragi (Shows up about a week after their conversation re: Hammers)
[Ever since the awkward conversation when he'd gone to investigate the noise, and found Yuffie starting a construction project, Vincent has...outwardly remained the same. Mostly trying to read his housemate's moods, lest he upset her more. Especially since he's confused in some ways over why she IS upset, and what she is upset about.
She would probably rather they 'talk' in person about things--but he'd tried that, and it had only upset her. Which meant a letter it was, and if she got upset at him over that? Oh well. Honestly--it was with almost sardonic amusement at himself--that Yuffie doubted that he considered her a friend, cared about her, and yet she claimed she 'knew'.
In any case, this'd be left where she'd find it.]
Yuffie,
You've scolded me before for not speaking to you and leaving letters. But talking with you, when I am not usually one for conversation, did not seem to be the answer either considering the last in-depth discussion. So a letter it is for now.
Starting with blunt truth, and while I know you 'know' what I'm about to write, I feel a need to remind you. EVERYTHING changes; existence itself is change. But change does not have to be 'bad'.
I am not used to having 'friends'. I have allies, and coworkers; in my past I often kept to myself, as I do now. I listen, and I observe, but I do not feel a need to reach out or engage others often. You are my friend, however. To whit, this means that I care about your feelings and moods, I worry about how you are doing and what you are up to, and would like you to generally be healthy and well. To a degree beyond the basic level of empathy and care most humans show one another.
I do not have friends easily, nor casually. Even as I have...found myself finding that distinction and state between coworker/ally and 'friend' blurring at times with others here, it is still not a bond I view lightly. So do NOT doubt that you ARE my friend.
As for your specific concern about my leaving, and matters concerning Dr. Crescent. I have no intention of NOT remaining in house A02 at this time or the foreseeable future. If you were not acceptable as a housemate, even without our friendship, then I would've left to find other lodgings well before now. Simply because someone whom I did at one point love shows up, does not mean I will automatically leave and rush to their side. (I doubt Dr. Crescent would want that either--we both have our scars. The colloquial is 'once bitten, twice shy' I believe?)
That I loved her deeply once, does not however mean that I do still. I care that she is well, and healthy, and happy--but that is because she is in that grey area of ally/coworker/friend. Much as Cloud is, or Tifa, or anyone from Avalanche, among a few others. To be honest, I do not see myself entering into ANY kind of romantic entanglement with anyone casually or easily.
I hope this addresses the concerns I am aware of.

Yuffie--I don't know what's going on, with you or Vincent, but I worry about you both kupo. He's not one for long conversations usually, and while he can be a bit more wordy in writing kupo, Vincent took several days writing and re-writing this letter. I don't know what's in it, I just observed him kupo. ~~Ophelia
