It was a simple game of wits, a moment where she would abuse the knowledge she has over the so-called country of freedom. It was a lie, a lie so disgusting it made her want to laugh out loud before the very Grand Master Varka who had been gone for so long, dumping all of his work on Jean, the leader of the Knights. This land was preposterous, laced in internal hatred and demise of others. Freedom here meant you are one of theirs, one who doesn't cause troubles, one who belongs. It makes her want to laugh, laugh so hard that her stomach would hurt but it's not the time. For now, she knows Eula’s feelings on the matter, it can be easily seen through how hard she works and how she acts with those within Mondstadt. They judge her, they hate her, they spit on her shadow because she is one of Lawrence family. This land is laced with greed and malice just like any other, this so-called land of freedom was not a joyous one. Zarina remembered how others would treat her upon her first step here years ago, it took so long to build up trust and reputation, but now the folks loved her and her theater. Those punks would open the doors to you once you’ve shown you have no claws to scratch them with, take away their ‘peaceful freedom.’
That’s why---
“ I can’t! Don’t you understand?! ” Zarina slaps the other’s hand hand away, showing concern and showing pain within her golden eyes. Her voice rang through the place, the people who were injured were both Fatui and those of Mondstadt. It was a mistake, a moment where two sides had acted out in a way that not befitting of either fractions. All because the sight of Snezhnayans would make others immediately act upon their best judgement. “ Let me help! They might be Fatui, but they are humans, too! It wasn’t their fault that they were asked to be here! They didn’t attack, they didn’t conspire, they wanted to have some space outside of the damn city! ”
The one who was still awake on the floor, bandaged after an attack, would dryly whisper a word of help in Snezhnaya’s native tongue. The warrior of ice and snow would stare into Lawrence’s eyes as she would not budge away. The Knights of Favonius have to take care of this, but Zarina will not hesitate to make the one before her doubt their judgement. She will not hesitate to slowly bring poison inside her mind to remind: they never treated you right, are you sure you want to become just like them who deserve none of your loyalty? Sokolova wasn’t a hero, but in the eyes of those who listened who was hurt - she was, a trick of wits and influence, acting in its best deception. She fooled Varka, she fooled others, she isn’t one to be caught so easily. This sounds all too real because it’s based on truth and reality, it’s a callout to the very base of this situation.
“ When I first arrived to Mondstadt... No one helped me, no one helped the kids and the families I took in with Mistress Serebro, all because of where they’re from or how they looked, it took so long to get any support, ” the pain in her voice shakes the very tone as she then goes to grab Eula’s shoulders, her arms shaking as if she was remembering the great deal of pain and suffering. All because it must resonate with Eula, her heart of kindness and her heart of true nobility. Will she not respond to that ever so lightly? A seed must first be planted, it was the time. “ It’s unfair... They’re just... They’re barely leaving their teen years. It’s not their fault their leader asked them to be here. They didn’t ask to be placed here. You know that the people throw stones at them, you know that they hate them deeply, don’t you? So please, don’t make me leave. ” Desperation screams, the fear lingers, the plea continues. Zarina’s fingers dig deeper into the knight’s shoulders, begging and almost falling to her knees. “ Let me, let me bandage them up. They are scared, they thought the Knights were here to hurt them. I beg you, Eula, don’t make me leave. The explosion wasn’t supposed to happen, they just wanted to watch fireworks outside the city. ”
This is the power of acting. This is the power of charisma and this is the power of information. This is the power of observation and knowledge of human psyche.
“ I swear, they’ll answer the questions, but they’re scared. They’re hurt and scared. They’re people too... Give them... one chance, they’re just kids. I’ll take the responsibility, ” There’s trembling in her voice, tears start to appear in the corners of her eyes. “ I’ll answer before Acting Grand Master, I swear on the name of Aurora Borealis and on the name of my mistress, I beg you, Eula, don’t make me leave. ”
Eula scoops Hakuno up and over her shoulder like a sack of potatos. Back to Monds you go young lady.
—h-hoisted up so easily?!
the ease of which taking her by surprise, lips parting with a small sound; almost like a gasp, somewhat filled with both shock and awe. perhaps such a thing shouldn't have been so unexpected, though, given the difference in frame between the two women. doe eyes close in a slow blink, before in a sudden change: her previously still body would now trash about ( more like a petulant child rather than anything violent however, just a show of protest, for she would never want to harm eula ) .
❝ w-wait! i still— i still can... upyuu! ❞ a wavering voice ultimately building to— a kitten-like sneeze. the kishinami was indeed not unlike the image of the adorable fluffy animal she so loved ( cue another sneeze from her flushed face ) , the sniffle that follows is almost dejected, she almost curls up in attempt to gather up warmth. though she is incredibly defiant in her request to stay, hands closed into little fists, and lips pursing into a pout.
❝ uu... you can put me down! ❞
unprompted, always accepting! @eisschwertin
tonight it’s hard for me to care .
this gives me big ''kaeya takes care of big sis eula'' vibes -- @eisschwertin
' then don't, ' he encourages her, filling up her glass once more with thick, sweet rum of the priced quality. as if he was a shadow, he closes eula off from the rest of the tavern, casting his protective form over the end of the table: whoever wants to bother her will have to gaze into the abyss.
' you care so much about everything, it must be exhausting: take a break from it, won't you? '

She is going to commit a murder against Albert. Maybe aid the knight over there that is attempting to drown himself. :I
❝ End my suffering Captain...please...I committed the most vile act in existence. ❞
Huffman knows he’s being dramatic. Completely and unapologetically so, but he feels disgusting all over. No amount of water could wash away this feeling of disgust. But maybe freezing himself for a few minutes could. He deserves such agonizing pain.

There was only so much that could be done. Arrows are unleashed from his bow, the invading soldiers ( who were they ? why were they so stubborn in trying to get him to come with them ? ) refusing to back out, even as members feel around them. Eyes narrow, and he steps backward, wind surrounding him and letting out arrows in quick pace, and he grits his teeth.
❝ … What do you even want ? ❞ He hisses, only to note another quickly approaching. Oh, great. Venti isn’t sure how much energy he has left. Though, that worry was completely evaporated once she had swung at one of the invading figures. Thank the gods. Venti grins, immediately unleashing another arrow until the remaining figures retreated, seeing as he was no longer alone.
❝ Thank you for that … I’m not sure who they are, or why they have something out for me … But I appreciate the help. ❞ He smiles, head tilting a bit. / @eisschwertin
