9) God, but you’re cool? Your job and your hobbies and your style. You make me want to be braver, and also, stronger.
10) I strongly feel that if geography and my shyness weren’t so strong, we’d be pals. Also, you have the most engaging face.

16) every encounter with you convinced me not only of your generosity, but of your attendant magic.
17) oh look! Long time crush! I think the way you navigate the world is honest,and the work you do is amazing. I wish you knew how hot you are.
18) oh, fellow fish. How utterly glad I am to know you. You are not only staggering in talent and kindness, you’re also a person whose entire being is heart. Thank Christ you’re in my corner: you feel like one of the best things in my life.
19) you write as if you have cracked the world into scintillating colour. Your elegance astonished. Your prose is as good as your verse and I’m just so impressed and intimidated by your skill, application, and the way you navigate through life.

26) I don't really know you, but your research always seems really whizzy and impressive.
27) Oh I miss you? I want to come and visit but its definitely weird to suggest it. I miss flirting with you awkwardly.
28) You have done so bloody well, you have fought the hard things, and you're stylish in a way I barely comprehend. All that, and you're still kind. Its... you are a good egg, and I hope you know how valued you are.

34) I know nobody who works as hard as you to make a good life, and to hold yourself to it. I pinch myself, and yet you persist. You make me want to do better. You make me believe a thousand impossible things before breakfast, everyday.
35) I want to eat the things you make!
36) You, who I miss so much and who are so important to me, are one of the good ones. I want to swim and eat and talk about poetry until dawn rears its head with you, please.
