Summary: The letters were more than just words. They were life. They were hope. It was a chance to feel something other than emptiness. It was all they had. It was what they held onto. And even as the war continued to bear down on them, they never stopped hoping. Hoping that one day, they would have more than just words. But hope was a fantasy and war leaves nothing behind.

Clarification: I have no personal knowledge of the Wars - WWII and Vietnam - but they will both be used here. All my knowledge is the tiny bit I have retained from high school, from recounts of my grandfather and uncle, and countless searches of the web and even media. If you see something that is wrong, please don't hesitate to tell me. I will gladly look it over and see what I missed.
1. Dear Jane by Noxid Anamchara [Reviews - 7] (1397 words)
Noxi: Yes, it's another AU. I never thought I'd give the Soldier storyline any thought, but I've said that about plenty of things. So here I am. I saw a prompt and decided to go with it, twisting it to fit my needs, both Caryl and Muse. It will either be a huge endeavor, much like Sky Country, or it will be sweet and brief. I'm not sure yet. I'll see where Carol and Daryl take me. And I hope you will join me.
