it hurt to see her hurting. she knew this was taking a toll on her. watching others die around her. its the same pain that eve had felt hundreds of years ago. but she understood to an extent. she wasnt filled with prophesies and omens. she would try to understand though, she would try her best to support her.

lilith averted her gaze, went to brush a couple of loose hairs out from her face. it wasn’t like she was just trying to make eve feel better, though that was part of the truth. she had to move on somehow, and healing was optional: if it took less time, she’d take it. mourning & weeping were not parts of the harpy dictionary, and it wasn’t hard to see why, or how it affected them.

and besides, she couldn’t just ignore what eve was saying. not with all the hope and love her wife held in her heart, just for her.

the gentle touches she bestowed upon her helped, though. made her feel like she was safe, like things would go on, as they always had. and for a moment, she knew they would. she leaned back in, closed her eyes as she quietly pressed her lips against eve’s again before she broke it, pressed into her and murmured, “alright, but… can you just hold me?”

she’d never understood the feeling of loss, but she’d at least be able to… understand others’ experience now. that was the only good thing to come of this mess.
