Dear you,
We’ve been meaning to write. Truly, we’ve been meaning to answer all of it, the texts, the voice notes, the “we should catch up soon” that neither of us followed through on. But it was summer, and you know how summer in Berlin gets.
We were all a little scattered, a little in love, a little heartbroken, a little too far gone to reply. Now the light is changing, colder season is on the horizon, and we find ourselves missing everyone. So consider this our reply, months late and worth the wait: Let’s unpack.
On the 4th of September, Cuddles comes back to ÆDEN. Two floors, gates at midnight, the garden holding onto its last warm night before the season turns. Let’s meet. Let’s spiral about all of it together.
The romances, the heartbreaks, the festivals, the afters and the after the afters, the polycules, the drama, the matches, the drinks.
The ones spinning while we spiral:
⇾ Aaron Blau
⇾ Chico Blanco
⇾ Katy de Jesus
⇾ puppy
⇾ Sterling Juan Diaz
⇾ MCMLXXXV
⇾ Vani Vachi
⇾ Verushka
It’s Virgo season, and it’s got us all sentimental. She’s the keeper of the little charms, the numbers written on napkins, the memories of every connection made on the dancefloor. She remembers the faces, she overthinks the long eye contact, she was so, so close to booking flights. She’s carrying the baggage, and so are we, all of us.
So come exactly as you are. Bring whatever the summer left you with.
There’s nothing to fix and nothing to explain. Cuddles isn’t the cure for the summer you just had. It’s just the softest place to land after it, a room full of people who made it through too.
Yours,
Cuddles
