text; can you let me out? can you set me free from this dark inner world?
[Why, what is this text message going out in the middle of the night?
It's someone who's hoping that not only will everyone be consumed with larger matters of what's happening in the world around them, but who will be fast asleep and not get this.
She knows she has to do this. She knows she needs to be honest with everyone, that she can't keep just hiding behind her assumed identity anymore.
It doesn't mean Naoto has to like it.]
"To thine own self be true." It's kind of a cliche saying at this point.
That doesn't make it inaccurate.
I can't think of any subtle or sensitive way to say this, so I might as well just be blunt: I've been keeping a secret from everyone as long as I've been living in this city. I haven't been honest.
While I've been outwardly presenting as male for quite some time now, I am-- and have always been-- a girl.
I apologize to anyone who feels that I've lied to them or deceived them. I'm sorry.
I hope this won't lead any of you to think differently of me, but that may be asking too much.
Good night.
[She hits send, and immediately regrets doing this at all. Oh god, this was a mistake.]

I'll admit a fondness for hot chocolate.
no subject
Is it ok if i send some
[Anyone else and he'd probably just take it in person, but he doesn't know Naoto well enough and he'd need to get her address as a result anyway.]
no subject
I wouldn't turn it down, if that's what you're saying.
no subject
Where do i send it?
[He's got some cash left over, a little hot chocolate delivery won't leave him hurting.]
no subject
I'll send my address.
You don't need to do this, you know.

Congratulations

Thank you, then.
I don't know what else I can say.

[And she will indeed receive a small package of peppermint hot chocolate in the mail not long after.]
