"Return to Shenkuu" by alphachicky
"Hey, Princess, letter for you.” The Ruki said, leafing through a stack of business mail. He held out a little green envelope, sealed with a heart sticker. Alexi took the letter from him without any griping about the nickname because, well, fair enough, in an ironic kind of way. Only so many royal draiks came to work at the secondhand shop. Moreover, she was too surprised by the letter to think up a snappy retort. Who would send her mail?In particular, who would send her mail in a green stationery envelope? A scented green stationary envelope, if she wasn’t mistaken. She tucked the letter into her backpack and got back to work, but it stuck in her mind.As she held a mirror for a patron trying on hats from a big cardboard box, it occurred to her that she did know someone who would bring that level of ridiculous extravagance to a neomail.
