"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 haven't even figured out how to stop blaming myself for it."
"I lost him...a long long time ago...and that's why I can't lie to you and tell you the pain will go away. It never does..."
She...was tormented by loss quite a bit...too much to ever really move on..
"It gets easier...and one day you'll feel better about it...but the pain never truly leaves you."

"It gets easier...and one day you'll feel better about it...but the pain never truly leaves you."
"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."

"And the news of my husband still flash in my mind every so often...I can't help but hurt over it still..."
That shadowy tentacle continued to stroke her back slowly...doing it's best to comfort her...
"These things never truly leave you...you just have to continue onward despite it all..."

"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."

"It's alright. We all need our time to talk...I've nothing better to do anyway.."
She yawns again...her eyes fluttering softly as she tried to get herself fully awake...
"We can stay and talk...for as long as you need to.."

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..."

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."

Palutena would feel a gentle stroke along her back...one of the goddess' shadowy tentacles has taken to comforting her fellow goddess
"Something certainly did..you could say that..."

"...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."

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'm sorry. For what happened. I uh...can try to leave, if you prefer. I know you must be uncomfortable..."

"But, if you're willing...what /did/ happen? Why did she...do that?"
Pit shivered, his wings slightly wrapping around him. They looked healthier than they used to, and yet somehow seemed to clearly have come at a cost.
"...hearing you say that is comforting and yet so confusing. I almost can't even believe it's happening."
He wiped his eyes frantically now.
"...hearing you say that is comforting and yet so confusing. I almost can't even believe it's happening."

"...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."

The pain in his back scar seared up. Emotional trauma response, he was sure. But ...
"I'm sorry to hear that. Last time I dealt with anyone with your face, I was stabbed. Literally."
He stepped back, lowering the staff slightly.
"Which, understand...is why I'm not inclined to trust you, either."

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.

His inheritance of her staff showed on a draw, "Who are you? The only person I know with your face isn't a deity anymore. If this is a joke, it isn't a funny one, and I'm really not in the mood for mind games today."
Though, a tremble rang through him. A shiver on his spine.
"Why are you here?"

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.

If there's anyone Pit doesn't expect to see today, it's Her. But that's exactly what he gets. Freezing in place upon the sight of her, his heart seized as though a ghost had reached in to grab it.
But, the confusion was unreal. So much so that he couldn't even speak.
