Neil Gaiman

The one who wrote Coraline, and co-wrote the book of Good Omens and made the TV show, also the Sandman comics writer and co-creator who made the Sandman TV show. Quite nice really.

Hi, Neil. This is not the first ask I've sent you and I know you're very busy so I apologize. I just wanted to let you know, because I know how much you enjoy our pain, that my partner finished GO season 2 late last night and I woke up this morning to nine voice messages and forty six texts from him. Most of the voice messages were unintelligible because of how hard he was crying but here's a little piece from one of them: "... Like, he's such a great author and such a great person...[unintelligible sobbing]... why would he do this to us?!" I was hoping that maybe you could respond with something to assure him that our Ineffable Husbands will be okay. I really need help cheering him up, he's very upset. His name is Kai and he really is a sweetheart - very tenderhearted so he took it pretty hard. We're both big fans of yours so it would mean a lot, but I completely understand if you're too busy.

Much love,

Blu

Tell him it’s okay to feel things and to care about fictional people and about stories. And reassure him that this story is not yet finished. This was the quiet and romantic jam in the apocalypse sandwich, and we have a way to go before it’s done.
