HELLO BAO!!! 🌸🌸🌸 I come bearing two short little mixes for

fullbloomfanletters, which really only have 5 songs each and in my mind are kind of like the A-side and B-side to each other (so it's one mix really!). The title of side A comes from a fic of the same name, Love Letter For You, which is what this mix is loosely inspired by. I remember there being crying about it on the Discord a fair while back (it's the one where Itaru's niece goes through his belongings after his death and finds his letters addressed to Tsuzuru, and it's literally in the description so not a spoiler but IT'S.....SO SAD.....looks into the sky)....I happened to be listening to Asu e no Tegami while reading it and promptly cried for half an hour, so naturally I decided to make an angsty TsuzuIta breakup mix? To counter the sadness, side B, Let's Start From Here, is for the timeline where Tsuzuru and Itaru do work out: the strand of TsuzuIta I love is one where they're really comfortable but childish at the same time, and I hope the songs convey that mundane everydayness and warmth.....I really couldn't not stick Torisetsu in there, but I went with a cover version so it felt more Itaru POV, heh.

Song lyrics are (loosely) translated by me (#itried), though there's so many other good lines in these songs!!! Sorry for the rambling, and I hope you enjoy listening to the mix ✨
