So his letters went to Vin.

I suppose you’ve probably heard through the phone tree or whatever it is the senshi have that the missing civilians wound up out in the “Surrounding,” which is sort of like the Zodiac’s secret base at the edge of the solar system. I mean, go figure, who knew this existed, but if I had to guess I’d say I’m somewhere in the Kuiper belt right now. Maybe the Oort cloud? Seems kind of fuzzy and unimportant when we’re all superheroes, anyways.
For the moment, though, it seems like everything is under control. Supplies are showing up and it looks like the Zodiacs are just using us as a free source of labor to clean the place up. I’ll let you know if anything changes, but for now you should keep up patrol on the Destiny City end of things, I think. With so many of us out here on the front lines, it might only be a matter of time before someone takes advantage of the situation…
Anyways, ignore my conspiracy theories – I think it’s just Europa rubbing off on me.
I’ll write again soon and let you know how things are going.

I made a girl cry today without even trying, which I actually feel pretty lousy about because it was Sailor Virgo and we’re all imposing on her already and then I wasn’t my ancestor. First time I’ve ever wished I was more like ‘bitchy Dumbledore’! (Have I told you about my ancestor? No? Story’s better in person but apparently he was friends with Virgo, like, a thousand years ago.)
Anyways it was the first time in a while I felt bad for being, you know, me, instead of whoever people wanted me to be? Which was weird.
I know senshi don’t get rings like ours so if you can’t write back don’t worry about it, but I’m sure if you found another knight they’d be cool with sending off a letter for you, right?
(That’s not a hint if you don’t want it to be but seriously I’m starting to miss you.)

Another arrived the next day:

Valhalla’s not so bad. I guess I got off to a really rocky start with him, but he’s smarter than I took him for and has a lot more going on inside his head than I thought he did. He’s nicer, too, when he’s not making fun of my art.
(I guess that arranging mannequins on the Sovereign Heights quad is actually a really dumb use for superpowers after all, isn’t it?)
(But don’t tell Valhalla I’m agreeing with him.)

A few days passed without a letter, and then:

I met another Mercury Knight today! Her name’s Hesperis and she sings Ke$ha songs and glows so I guess she’s pretty cool. Her weapon’s way less wussy than my old glowstick, which I guess you could say makes me sort of jealous. Bo-staff envy! (Is that how you spell it? My iPhone doesn’t get reception out here at the surrounding so I can’t look these things up…)
The Zodiacs are still working on trying to get the civilians home but so far nothing is working. I’m more worried that there are monsters attacking people when they try to walk between outposts. I’ve been sticking close to Virgo’s temple so I haven’t seen any and I’m not sure if they’re youma or what but we’ve gotten word of a few different attacks – not to mention some crazy s**t that apparently went down before I even got here?
I’m torn, Vin. I want to go home and eat real food instead of camping rations and sleep in my own bed and go on patrol with you but I feel like I should stay here and see what happens, just in case they need all hands on deck-
I’m still not saying it’s a hint but if you want to go find a knight and get them to send a letter to me it would be amazing amazing amazing.
I miss you I miss you I miss you I miss you
