Ya, that might be better. Or I just need to read books by different authors. lol

Oh, lol. Just realized how quickly I got a villain this time.

PLEASE NOTE:
Letter:
1. Anna's Rocking Love
Location: Paris, France
Playing For: Girl, Romance
I really enjoyed my time on the game the last time (or seven) I was here, and I discovered something I will forever be grateful for. I, am bisexual. So, boys (I'm talking to you Daemon with your Obsidian eyes), thank you for all of your time. I might be back, but I'm ready for a girl to rock my world. :)
2. Anna, Looking for Someone to Lean On
Location: A Small Apartment in Portland, Oregon
Playing For: Guy, Friendship
I met Linh at a small bookstore, and we instantly connected. I guess that you could say that our romance was like a hurricane. We were together for a couple of months, but she got called away on a mission to the moon. She could only tell me that the name of the mission was code name Cinder. We were both sad to part, but we knew that it was for the best. I'm not ready for another love, I need time to get over the heart break. I'm looking for a friend who will be there for me when I need him the most.
3. Anna's Badass Heart of Glass
Location: A Boat, on an ocean, somewhere in the Milky Way
Playing For: Female, Romance
I guess that you could say that I fell into a bad crowd after Cinder left me. But in all honesty, I thought that the King of Adarlan was pretty cool at first. We would play chess together, talk about different war tactics, he even let me sit on his Throne of Glass. But, then I learned that he was dealing with demons and some bad creatures, and I decided that it was best if I left. I would hate to be killed and all. So here I am, on a boat, just looking for a girl to guide me home.
4. Anna, Hungry for Love
Location: District 12
Looking for: Boy, Romance
Not many people know this about me, but I actually grew up in District 12. There, I grew up next to Katniss Everdeen. Our friendship seemed innocent, but I think that we both felt something more for each other. But everything changed when she volunteered for The Hunger Games to save her sister. After everything happened I was one of the lucky few who managed to get out, and relocate to a new country. I still think about her sometimes, "How's she doing? Is she happy?" But it's time for me to find a new companion. Hopefully I'll find a guy who will be able to keep me company.
