a small site, for a big person

for fishiiii

my favorite person in the whole ocean (and world duhh)

I made you a website because I ran out of ways to tell you how much you mean to me, and figured I'd try a new one. Consider this permanent proof, hosted on the actual internet, that you are it for me.

You're the love of my life. Not "a good thing that's happening right now" — the whole thing. The person I want next to me on good days and bad ones, the one I think about mid-sentence in conversations with other people, the one who makes ordinary Tuesdays feel like something.

So — hi. This is for you. All of it.

keep going 🫧
a few, of many

open when you're sad

Hey fishi,

If you're reading this, something's weighing on you, and I wish I could just swim over and be there right now.

Whatever it is, it doesn't make you any less wonderful. You're allowed to feel sad — you don't have to perform happiness for anyone, not even for me.

Take a breath. Drink some water. Text me if you want, or don't, and just sit with this letter for a minute instead.

I'm proud of you for getting through hard days before, and you'll get through this one too. I believe in you more than you believe in yourself sometimes.

Love you endlessly,
chicken 🐥

open when you miss me

Hi fishi,

So you miss me, huh? Good. That means the feeling's mutual, because I think about you more than I'll ever admit out loud.

Here's a little secret: distance doesn't actually change anything between us. You're still the first person I want to tell things to. You're still the person who makes ordinary days feel like something.

Close your eyes for a second and imagine I'm right next to you, being annoying, making you laugh at something dumb. That's basically what's happening right now, just with extra steps.

I'll see you soon. I always do.

Missing you just as much,
chicken 🐥

open when you had a bad day

Fishi,

Bad day, huh? Those are the worst — everything piles up and even small things feel heavy.

So here's your permission slip: you're allowed to be annoyed, tired, and done with today. You don't need a good reason.

But also — tomorrow is a brand new one, and it doesn't know anything about today. It gets a clean slate. So do you.

Go do something that makes you feel like yourself again. Bath, snack, nap, whatever. I'll be here when you're ready.

Rooting for you always,
chicken 🐥

open when you need to smile

Fishi!!

Okay, mandatory smile time. Here are some facts to help:

1. You have the cutest laugh and you don't even know it.
2. Somewhere out there, a fish is doing something ridiculous right now and doesn't know you'd find it funny.
3. I am, at this very moment, thinking of something dumb to say to you later just to see your face light up.
4. You are, scientifically, the best thing that's happened to me.

There. Smiling yet? If not, reread number 4 until it works.

Always trying to make you laugh,
chicken 🐥

open when you can't sleep

Hey you,

Still awake? Me too, probably, thinking about you.

Let's do this together — put the phone down after this, get comfy, and just breathe slow for a bit. In for four counts, hold, out for four.

Imagine we're lying somewhere quiet, just talking about nothing until our eyes get heavy. That's what I want for you right now: quiet, nothing, heavy eyes.

Sleep well, fishi. I'll be here in the morning, same as always.

Goodnight, my favorite fish,
chicken 🐥

open when you need a reminder I'm proud of you

Fishi,

I don't say this enough, so I'm putting it in writing: I am so, so proud of you.

Not just for the big wins — though those count too — but for the everyday stuff. Getting up when you didn't want to. Trying again after something went wrong. Being kind even when you were tired.

You handle so much with so much grace, and half the time you don't even give yourself credit for it. So let me do it for you: you're doing an amazing job. You're becoming exactly who you're meant to be, and I get a front-row seat to watch it happen.

Endlessly proud of you,
chicken 🐥

open for no reason at all

Fishi,

No occasion, no emergency — I just wanted you to have a letter for absolutely no reason other than I like you a whole lot.

That's it. That's the letter. Go about your day knowing someone out there is thinking about you for zero particular reason, all the time.
