Unbeknownst to Cassian, he'd just dodged a particularly smelly bullet. Today he had a bit more spare time on his hands, which of course had him missing his sister-- he's been dreadful about visiting home, and knew she was quite antsy about the prospect of finding a suitor this summer. Merlin knows Cassian wouldn't be the first one to provide the family grandchildren, at this rate.

Bean,

It's been ages since you've written me. Have you forgotten all about your big brother? Am I chopped liver to you? You're not still mad that I haven't been to any of the balls lately with you, are you? I could use just one less person infuriated with me these days, if you'll do me the courtesy.

Miss you, don't do anything I wouldn't do which you will, obviously

Love,
Cass

Sent as a howler.

Traitor,

How dare you! Cassian bloody Valenduris, you don’t know what I’ve suffered trying to reach you!

I sent a strange woman (or man, I’m not sure) a rude poem about flatulence meant to make you laugh, and then my second attempt - an incredibly aggressive, impatient, not to mention needy note - landed in the hands of Endymion Dempsey! Merlin, I could just die Cassian. All of this just to get your attention!

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!

I have half a mind to return to Italy for good, abandoned here in England as I am! Mother has been on my case about dresses and smiling and fans, and the rest of them are driving me bananas in equal right. I miss you darling, please don’t leave me to the wolves!

Now, dramatics aside, I’m sure you are very busy with work and I appreciate how hard you push yourself to be something we can all respect. I am here to support you one-hundred percent. But can’t you do some of these things from home, Cass? I’m sure I’m not the only one feeling this way. Have you even spared Vincent a second thought? Or any of your other friends? You really oughtn’t work yourself so hard, it can’t be healthy!

Have you been eating enough? Is there anything you need that I can send, darling?

P.S. - I think it’s time we retired Vito the poor fellow. He’s much too old to be trusted with carrying anything of significance anymore!

your abandoned bean.
