"I...I see..." She reached out lightly to pat Nyx's shoulder, even though Palutena herself was still...trying to ease up her own emotions. "I hope it gets easier on us both ..." A tired sigh left her. "I haven't even figured out how to stop blaming myself for it."

"I feel like I don't even know what to do anymore..." She trailed off, frowning as she rested beside the other, "Your husband too...? I'm...so sorry to hear that." She exhaled deeply, her eyes still watery from all the thoughts in her head. "I relive that day every single day, it feels."

"Just...still mourning my son. My own shortcomings cost him his life. And I can't ever change that..." She sighed, curling herself up more into a ball. "It's been so long but I still hear it like yesterday."

{hi I'm Jarod 19 and I don't know how to read. also man, I made a sad Palu

"Where do I even go now-?" She's looking rough, just sitting on a lonely bench by a bustling street. Humanity ever alive, at which she was thankful. But sitting here alone, not sporting any of her usual outfit. Simply a dark blue gown, barely even shoes. "... what's the point anyway."

{sup everyone I'm gonna die from feels and yelling, bye

{WHAT THE FUCK, THIS BADASS LORE IS BLESSED I'M SO --- /Flips chairs / Flips tables / SCREAMS -??????

Another shudder. A soft, pained sigh leaving her. "Delaying the inevitable... I wonder sometimes if that's all I did in the end..." Slowly, she drew a breath to try to steady herself. "...heh, I'm sorry. I shouldn't be complaining..."

{I promised myself I wouldn't write ships until I like. settled way in. But the crack thought is real.

"...did it help-? Did you feel better...?" Palutena...shivered a bit, actually. Rolling onto her side, she drew her legs to her chest, trying so hard to roll into a ball. "... surely something happened to make you sleep like that."

{hi excuse me, I want to adopt Pit but specifically the one I'm writing with

"Huh." Realizing she was teetering tiredly on her feet, she decided to flop down beside her. A bit hard, even. Carelessly. "...I wonder if I lay here long enough, I'll fall asleep long enough to go numb."

{this is starting to remind me of my crack ship thoughts

{MURDER DRONES-!? FUCKING HELL -- /good things dammit I need to actually watch it but my friends talk so much about it it sounds lit

Meanwhile, the sight of Pit's wings actually made her turn away. Squeezing her misty eyes shut. "I'm sorry. For what happened. I uh...can try to leave, if you prefer. I know you must be uncomfortable..." She hesitated. "But, if you're willing...what /did/ happen? Why did she...do that?"

{I think I'm scared now

{when you find out that the account you followed solely because of a Phosphora icon muses her AND Dyntos? ✔️

"You know, sleeping on the ground outside isn't the best idea. You good there?"

"...if it's any comfort, I would have rather been stabbed than lose you." So much she wanted to say. How to even process. Another her stabbed him? How could she? The cruelty hurt her soul. "...I understand. I do not know how I got here, honestly. But I also do not blame you for distrusting me."

"... Okay. Cool. We should take you /bowl/ing. Ha. Haha. Get it?" She's. Tired.

"I, uh..." She couldn't believe it. She was lost for words. The sight of him had already run her blood cold, but now he has her staff AND he's angry? "... I'd like to know too. Because last I remember, I lost you in battle. I held you and screamed. Am I hallucinating?" Her voice brokenly shook.

"...you gonna eat all those bowls or can I have one for actual food."

Unreal was an understatement. Feeling an energy akin to her own while walking the Earth, made her feel...damned and lost. But then to see him attached to it? Palutena thought, for a minute, that perhaps she was the one who perished. But no. "... impossible..." she whispered to herself.
