yes, yes, we know that heartkindle event is no longer relevant, but we needed to give the story a proper finish
(this isn't the end yet btw)

ooh boy here we go, rp threads with below

Ridiculous.
Bonbon raced through the snow in an unknown rush, with a small bag dangling in his mouth. From time to time he would stop, look around him in search for one particular gro, then continue running. The Heartkindle event was getting close to its end, but the gro still hasn't figured who sent him that very letter. Thanks to that tan wyngro gal, he was able to sorta understand what it said, but he didn't feel like asking her to read the name of the sender again.
'Why couldn't I just ask Lionel, he's the best reader from what i know' Bonbon scolded himself in his thoughts as he kept looking for his pal. He felt guilty that in attempt to find the author of his own letter, he forgot to write one for his friend. He hoped that Lionel isn't too bitter at him for that.
Is that why he's nowhere to be found?
'Even if I had one, he probably wouldn't even read it.' tan wyngro suddenly assumed. 'After all.. I'm not Princess Moonglow.'
Bonbon finally stopped to catch his breath and sat on his bum, looking around.
Lionel's got to me here somewhere, right?
--
Filled with determination, Lionel slid down the slippery rock, barely stopping himself from falling headfirst into the thick layer of snow. That would’ve been extremely embarrassing. Under no circumstances would he approach Bonbon looking like that.
Speaking of Bonbon, he was pretty sure he just saw the beige kid’s silhouette over there – there were a lot of Wynglings who resembled him, but he had learned to tell him apart from the others by now. How long has he been sitting here? It’s rather cold…
Lionel rapidly shook his entire body, trying to get rid of every little snowflake. On steady but slightly stiff legs, he approached his friend with a slight smile, getting closer and closer until he noticed.
Bonbon was holding a bag.
Oh no oh no oh no. He had probably received a gift already. It would be weird to ask him that question now. Maybe he was returning from a date with someone else, and wouldn’t even care what Lionel said or asked because he was so happy. On the one side, seeing Bonbon happy was always nice, but when it ruined all his plans that he’d spent so long thinking over? Not so much.
Nevertheless, it was too late to stop now.
“Hey, Bonbon!” His smile grew even wider, although it was mostly a failed attempt to seem natural. “Is that a Heartkindle? Lucky you!” He chuckled. “I haven’t got one myself. Maybe someday, when I’m popular.”
--
Was that...
Lionel!
Bonbon cawed happily as soon as he saw his close friend and quickly sprung on his legs, watching Lionel approaching him fast. Gosh, he was so happy to see him. Guess he wasn't too mad after all?

Haven't got one? That doesn't sound right.. A cool guy like Lionel would have gotten attention, Bonbon thought.
At Lionel's question Bonbon perked up a bit and nodded in affirmation. He took out a blue letter and handed out to Lionel to take a closer look. He sat down and glanced at the other gro a bit embarrassed for not having anything for him. And becase of another thing..

"..I wish I knew who sent it." he spoke softly as he looked down, chuckling awkwardly.
"I.... can't read, currrr.."
After a short pause, he rummaged in his little bag and took out another letter, which he gave to Lionel too. "I also wanted to give to them this." It was beige and cut in a heart shape rather raggedly, with nothing in it but a single word:
"O.K."
and a smiling poorly drawn wyngro in the corner.
Supposedly, it was a reply to the sender's invitation to go out. And see a cool rock too, of course.
--
Actually, it was great that Lionel had the chance to see the letter. It was beyond great. At least he’d know whom he would have to… avoid? Dislike for ruining his cool Heartkindle ideas? At this point, he didn’t even know. He signed and closed his eyes for a second to prepare himself for the moment…
Wait.
It was his own letter. Right before him, written just like he would, with the exact same words and the exact same doodles.
So, it had found its recipient. Mixed feelings were stirring in Lionel’s head. Of course, it was great that there wasn’t some mysterious Wyngling out to steal Bonbon’s heart and possibly his free time, and Lionel still had a chance with his plan. But if Wyngrew could die of embarrassment, that was definitely happening to him right now.
“You… can’t? I thought you were reading my book yesterday,” he mumbled, somewhat confused. The pictures in it were probably what attracted Bonbon, so it wasn’t all that surprising. Lionel thought that perhaps he should’ve made more drawings in his letter to make it clearer. “Oh, that’s not a problem, though,” he reassured awkwardly, in case Bonbon thought he didn’t want anything to do with illiterate Wynglings.
“The thing with this thing…” No. Where did all the good phrases go when he needed them the most? “The thing with this letter…” He looked away. “If you’re asking who wrote it…
It was me. Actually me.”
--
Oh goodness..
Bonbon stared at Lionel in slight disbelief, then proceeded to hide his face which was slowly turning pink. It was hard to hide the joy and the grin the gro had on his face. It was Lionel, it was Lionel all along! Dreams do come true! Bonbon had no idea what to say to his friend, so all he could do is cover his blushing face with claws and softly screeching in delight, before suddenly leaping towards the orange gro to hug him tightly.
Does that mean that the response Bonbon made was for Lionel? Could it count as a Heartkindle letter for him? To be fair, it wasn't originally addressed to him, but it still counts, right? So, he did have a letter for Lionel! Oh joy!
...Bonbon realized he was squeezing his friend in the embrace for a little too long and finally let go of him, backing off and chuckling awkwardly. Eyes sparkling with joy, he glanced at his friend and nodded to the back with a joyful chirp.
Was he perhaps asking if Lionel wants to go hang out?
--
Wow. Lionel was thinking of some clever thing to say, but as always, he was interrupted – this time by Bonbon’s hug. He was warm and soft, dangerously so. Like being wrapped in a warm blanket, except the blanket was really friendly and affectionate. So Lionel made no effort to pull back. He even considered rubbing his head against Bonbon’s, then decided it would result in an incredibly awkward moment later, and so just stood in place, his eyes closed, a wide grin on his muzzle, as visibly happy as he could be. Having a normal tail to wag with would be great.
“Ah, thanks,” he muttered when the other Wyngling finally stepped back. Being hugged was nice, but being able to breathe was even cooler. Either way, Bonbon seemed to be happy about the whole ordeal, so he must’ve felt the same way about Lionel. The reassurance gave the orange Wyngling confidence, so he decided to go through with the whole “hanging out” thing.
“So… yeah?” He paused, drawing a small circle in the snow with his claws. “I was asking if you wanted to see a cool rock. It’s not a long way from here, so maybe we could head there? And then… wherever else you want to go, I guess?”
--
Bonbon grinned and nodded hastily before merrily hopping over and standing right next to Lionel.
"Lead the way." he tweeted softly.
