Don't know when and I don't know why
One day you wake up and you're living a lie
One day you wake up and you're living a lie
Soh let Flora pull her closer, her head falling onto her friend’s shoulder as she shuddered with the memory of the battle. Gods, how stupid had she been to think she had any prayer of reclaiming her throne, of holding out against the Family if they decided they wanted to take an area for themselves? Tears eked out from closed eyes. She was never going to be able to save Stormbreak. It was better she recognize it now, before her idiocy got herself - and her friends - killed.
But the reality of her situation still rankled, and she opened her eyes to find Flora watching her intently. She wasn’t sure what she’d done to deserve this kind of friendship, to be privy to a relationship that had lasted through thick and thin, but if nothing else, it was a relief to simply be herself for a moment.
And herself was a hot fucking mess.
Soh had known what she risked when she went to Halo, but she hadn’t known. And now, having stared death in the face and come away alive… she very much didn’t want to die. ”It’s infuriating,” she admitted, her voice small. ”They’re always one step ahead. We won back the tundra, but the Void is just going to crop up somewhere else. We’re fighting a losing battle, and there’s nothing I can do to help my people.” And even less she could do to help herself.

Goodbye love, and goodbye pain
