I was a bit bored so I decided to write another one of Annabel's wonderful embellished letters to amuse myself. Is it Annabel canon? Weelll, yes, she is really kind of pissed realizing that being the WOL is changing her in ways she REALLY does not WANT to be changed. She LIKES being lazy and unproductive. Actually feeling bored while trying to do nothing does NOT thrill her, at ALL!
Dear expectant Siblings:
Why do I say 'expectant'? Ha Ha, for I KNOW you two are just WAITING for another one of my exciting letters to make your boring pampered lives a little LESS dull, am I right? Oh COME ON, I KNOW I am, you can't DENY it Alea!
Alea: "Ugh, that annoying sister of ours ALWAYS thinks she knows us Adora! I was not waiting THAT much for one of her STUPID letters, REALLY!"
Adora: "Um, Alea Dear, that MIGHT sound a little more convincing if you weren't prowling about the foyer last week trying to intercept the latest one before it got to Anders."
Alea: (looks shocked) "Um.....I was ONLY concerned for my DEAR sister's well-being!"
Adora: (sighs) "Alea, PLEASE don't make me use crude words I just KNOW I will regret saying later."
But, my foolish Sis's, jokes on YOU, for I am just writing this little note to say I am BORED out of my MIND, BORED!!!!!!
Now I KNOW what you are GOING to say! HOW, can she be possibly be bored with what happened to those poor Scions and the whole thing with WHK?
Well, FIRST of all, believe me, 'poor things' is the LAST word that I would use with those USELESS ex Minnie minion tagalongs. I am WAY better off without them! In fact, I am considering this a nice vacation from them, Ha!
And SECOND, I KNOW WHK is missing and all that, but WHS is sooooo much like him, it's like he's not really gone, so I'm good having him away for a bit longer, REALLY!
Minnie: (pops in, reads) "Annabel, are you KIDDING me? You are FINE with THIS? These are my former friends and companions!"
Anna: "Yes Minnie I know, and THAT is WHY I am 'fine' with it. Your minions are STILL a royal pain in the ass when they are around."
Minnie (flairs brightly) "Annabel, the ONLY thing saving you from MY bitchy retort is the fact Mother might be watching!"
Anna: (sighs) "You know, sometimes I am amazed that I ACTUALLY get any writing done with you silly spirits around."
Minnie: "Hmmmph, I'm just amazed that you actually CAN write."
Anna: (Sticks tongue out) "Go Away!"
I swear Sisters, ALL the time, IT NEVER....ugh, what was I writing? Oh yeah, BORED!
With me at peace with the current 'crisis', (PLEASE, it's ANYTHING but!) I kind of have NOTHING to DO now with all the current primals dead and Garleans kicked out of Eorzea. Yes, I know, I know, I SHOULD be glad, right? I mean with all those letters complaining about being forced with doing all the crap these lazy Eorzians and Otharians NEVER want to seem to do!
But......DAMN it! now that I am free of it all for now, I kind of DON'T know what to DO with my time! Aggggh!
Alea: "WOW, is she SERIOUS? ALL those letters about her WANTING to be free of this and now that she is she's STILL complaining?"
Adora: (puts hand on head) "I...I..(sighs again), I DO love my sister but even I have my limits...she is SUCH an idiot sometimes."
Alea: "Um,....SOMETIMES? Adora, I can count the times she wasn't on one hand, ONE! I...MIGHT have to rethink my enthusiasm at wanting to read her letters."
Adora: "FINALLY, thank the Twelve!"
Ok, there IS my pampering at House Fortemps, but I don't want to overtax the poor servants there with my constant visits. (See, I DO care about the common people Alea!)
There is my loving wife Aria, with who I can spend LOTS of extra alone time with now.
But, knowing her, I'll probably do something YET again to piss her off and get locked out of the house. (With her, a little Annabel goes a looong way, and too MUCH Annabel gets me homeless!)
I am SURE Alea is thinking, "then go practice your healing so you stop getting everyone killed Annie!" And MY answer to THAT is "PHHHTTT!" AM a good Healer ALEA! In fact, I am SO good, most couldn't even afford MY services! (Well, except those stupid people giving me those stupid quests!) So, NO, I don't need ANY practice on ANY of the jobs I know, I am PERFECT!
Minnie: "HA, if you mean by perfect; perfectly annoying, perfectly incompetent, and a perfect pain in the ass Bitch, then yes Annabel, you are most definitely 'Perfect.'
Anna: "........" "Minnie, if you weren't a ghost I would sooooo do things to you that I would NOT tell my sisters about in my letter!"
Minnie: "NOT a Ghost! And yes you would, you would just embellish it to make it look like you won as usual."
Anna: "TWELVE, does Hydaelyn know that you are bugging me again? Where IS that stupid Crystal; I KNEW that 'all seeing' thing was a load of crap! Now, shoo, I'm TRYING to alleviate my boredom, and if you DON'T go away, I WILL banish your pasty ass no matter WHAT Hydaelyn says."
Minnie: "If I can only BE so lucky Annabel." (pops out)
Anna: "FINALLY! I REALLY gotta work on making better friends. Maybe ones that AREN'T ghosts that haunt me!"
So what does that leave me with? Well, there IS resting up, but that gets REALLY boring after a while. You know sisters, I NEVER used to feel this way before, WHAT has happened to me??????
Hmmmm, you know what it is? I will TELL you! It's this damned 'Champion' crap I am stuck with. For the last year or so, people have thrown SO many STUPID useless time sucking quests on me that I think I just got used to being....gasp!....busy!
So now I can NO longer enjoy living the life of a lazy Aristocrat who is pampered all day....DAMN IT! My future life as a spoiled Trophy Wife is RUINED!!!! NOOOOOO!!!!
Adora: (smiles in spite of herself)
Alea: "Ok, WHAT'S going on; you look waaaay too pleased Adora."
Adora: "Oh silly girl, you know my thoughts about Annabel trying to become a trophy wife. I'm just glad she's changed too much now to be happy being one."
Alea: "So you're taking pleasure from her misery."
Adora: "Alea dear, shush."
So NOW what am I going to do? UGH, this REALLY does NOT make me happy. Does this mean any future leisure time is ruined? NO, I REFUSE to accept that! I WILL find a way to get my old life back, even if I have to go on strike and do NO quests for months to get used to being lazy again! Yep, let these stupid lands over here go to pot, I DON'T care, getting back my old languid, lazy, spoiled life is MORE important than saving this stupid Crystal's world! Priorities people, Priorities!
There! NOW I have something to focus on to alleviate my boredom, Yay! I will end this letter now so I can get RIGHT on it. Rest assured Sisters, this is one goal that I will do my damnedest to achieve! Wish me luck!
Your soon to be unproductive Sister again;
Annabel
Alea: "......um....so is this the last letter we will see from her? I mean, if she gets like she was before, she won't want to write."
Adora: "Alea, do you REALLY believe her? Annabel is many things, most which are NOT good, but our sister WON'T let people suffer if she can help them out, no matter WHAT she says otherwise. That silly Blonde ditz of a sister that we love has grown up more than she realizes."
Alea: "Yeah, I guess you're right, we should trust in her, right?"
Adora: (snorts) "only about as much as I trust you."
Alea: "ADORA!"
