[ she takes a deep breath in as she reads the message, she could try to lie as she did the others but... gods, she is so tired of lying. ]
Yes, Neuvillette and Wriothesley are looking after me.
It is difficult to explain. The part I acted in before I arrived here... it was the part of a god, the Hydro Archon of Fontaine. It is complicated but I was created by the splitting of my divinity and my humanity, one gathered strength while the other ensured the people's faith never faltered. I played that part for five hundred years. I was supposed to be free of that role, I was supposed to live as a human.
A few nights ago that divinity was restored to me...
[He reads that, mulling it over. Luckily this isn't his first God Rodeo, he's got pretty sed to this at this point. But this... also strikes a different memory. The spectre of the Nowhere King looms in the back of his mind- a centaur who ripped himself apart- man and beast. That had ended horrifically, and he has no sympathy for either half of that particular whole.
But this isn't quite the same. This doesn't sound like a choice. It sounds, quite frankly, a nightmare. ]
Oh man. That sounds like a LOT to have come back all at once? Like, that's some WEIGHTY stuff to land on you. No wonder you're taking you some you time. I'm not gonna pretend I know anything about the whole god thing, but I've helped Zhongli and Venti out when I could- you know, by listening? Like if you need someone to open your heart to and let some of that weight off, I can do that in a heartbeat, Sweetie.
Or you know. Anything, really. CAN I help in any way?
[ it is a lot to simply dump on someone, but zulius... well though they haven't known each other for long she feels as though she can trust him. she feels as though he would not turn his nose up at her problems and would understand to some degree. ]
You don't know how much that means to me, Zulius. How much it means to me that you and Venti, Takame and Rose have all reached out to me. I was [ the words stop and furina takes a moment to just breathe before she continues. ] I was alone for so long and to have you all doing this.
Thank you. I'm doing better now than I was few nights ago, however if I ever need someone to talk too I will come to see you.
[Zulius is here for everyone's problems with an understanding ear, a glass of wine and a tub of Ben and Jerry's. That fixes everything!!
Okay he is so proud of his theatre kids right now! Look at them looking out for each other!!!]
Of course they would! You're part of the FAMily now, honey. There's NO escape. We WILL love and cherish you and there's NOTHING you can do about it.
Glad to hear it. If you ever need me, let me know and I will BE there. We can eat a ton of ice cream and watch a cheesy movie and it'll be a HEALING experience for you.
furina doesn't realize she is crying until the tears drop onto her hand and her phone screen. one tear, two, then a third, and furina inhales sharply rubbing her eyes in an attempt to wipe away the tears. family, she cannot remember if she ever had one of those... not in the traditional sense at least. she had neuvillette and the melusine, but she held them at arm's length like she did everyone else. she had to.
but now? now she doesn't have to, she is free of the stage even with divinity sitting heavily in her veins. now she has zulius and rose and takame. she has neuvillette and wriothesley. now she has a family. she has to take a moment to calm herself down wiping even more tears from her eyes. she has a family. ]
I would like that a lot, maybe we can have a movie night sometime soon.
[She absolutely doesn't have to. In fact, the staff at the Vogue will absolutely do everything in their power to make sure that she doesn't hold them at arms length. That's just not how they function as a unit. She will be loved, fiercely and without question, and that's just the life she's going to have now.
If he knew she was crying, he would go find her and give her the BIGGEST freaking hug. Bone crunching levels. ]
Oh, you BET! Have you ever seen The Birdcage? That is my GO-TO feel-good movie. It cannot FAIL to make you feel fabulous.
