Kavi was a hopeless romantic. Everything had a reason, an overarching plotline that might be discovered later. The last text I have from Kavi reads, “It’s cliché to say everything works out in the end but it really does.” Rereading that made me incredibly angry, but I think it’s a fitting last communication with him. I think it would appeal to his sense of drama and, like he so often was, it is hopeful.

You know how in Harry Potter, Sirius Black is described as having a laugh like a bark? The only nonfictional person I’ve ever thought that about was Kavi.
