Why they think of you to help them sleep (Furina)

(4.5 archon quest spoilers)

warnings: angsty, kind of comfort at the end?

a/n: short cause i dont actually know her very well. i wanna go through the story quests again of characters im most interested in writing about to figure how to write them. that’ll take a while tho so i am basing it off what i remember from archon quests, events, and story quests i did a while ago

She needs to, because it hurts too much otherwise.

Everyday was another scene number. The endless play that is her life. A show that can never end, or Fontaine and its people are doomed to the flood. As she remains to cry on her throne. As the prophecy reigns terror onto the land.

So instead, she endures the weight of this responsibility in her lonesome. To be able to cry because of keeping everyone alive is a gift. Instead of crying because she succumbed to her weaknesses and letting them die.

The only solace she has is when she is finally allowed to be alone.

When it is just her in her room. The eyes are finally off of her, and the curtains come to a close. She curls up in her bed.

She shuts her eyes tight. Her brows knitted in concentration. Just so that she can conjure an image of you in her head. The creator.

She imagines you are in bed with her. That she is in your warm embrace. She falls asleep to the thought of you shushing her gently. Telling her she will be okay. How good she is doing. And how it will be over soon.

Only then does the tension in her body relax. Snuggling deeper into her pillow as if it was actually you. She is blissful enough to momentarily forget she has another performance due the next day.

She does this for a couple hundred years. Even after she was able to live normally after the death of Focalors.

She cannot sleep without thinking about the creator anymore. It is a necessity.

You are the gentle light that glows in the suffocating darkness that has trapped her. Even after she is free, your light will always allow her eyes to gently fall into a peaceful sleep.
