We can bid a fond farewell
To the things we saved
Shad0,
You solved both of my ciphers lickety-split, but did you get the keywords for them? The first cipher was easy, but the second might not be as easy. Except for you, perhaps, because you're some sort of super-genius or something.

Nope. Except for that nice little "ILOVEBZ" in the first one, I got nothin'. Maybe the second one is backwards?
I stare at the scrawls
On my wretched paper scrap
"Super-genius"? HA!
