type: wholly sfw. fluff. not specified universe.
contains: detailed descriptions of how the arcane women (jinx, vi, cait, sevika, mel) would comfort/understand you, for causes such as anxiety and depression.
reminders: english isn’t my first language. men and minors dni.
𝓗 : behold! anxiety attacks! depressive episodes! come inside, shield yourself with the love of non existent women! it’s horrid out there.
Jinx.
،،̲. Jinx cannot by any means be considered an emotionally available individual, although being very emotional intelligent. Out of all the Arcane Women, Jinx is probably the one who comprehends emotions best than any other. She herself has panic attacks and depressive episodes.
،،̲. She will attempt, in her own way, to comfort you whenever she notices you being off; especially if your episodes are chronic, with time she’ll grow to be more and more gentle (as much as the menace she is can allow, that is).
،،̲. The chaos this girl is will sit on your lap, or seek for any physical contact, and shake your shoulders mildly. “Hey. You’re being weird again.”
،،̲. Then, more softly, “It’s just... Bad thoughts. I get those too sometimes.” She will lower her voice, as if absorbing your inner troubles, and get beside you. Going with her head on your shoulder.
،،̲. A silent, and a bit timid too, way of letting you know she’s there. And she won’t go away unless you tell her to. Jinx is the most empathetic of all.
Vi.
،،̲. When situations like these occurs, I feel like she’d have such a big sister vibe. A leftover of her past with Pow, that made her the “speech giver”.
،،̲. She’s the best at comforting through words, and would not hesitate to shake off your irrational fears with objectivity and a security you so much need in the moment.
،،̲. When she first sees you being clearly anxious, or depressed, she won't ask you what’s wrong or dart you with questions that could only utterly agitate you.
،،̲. She’ll sit beside you, wrapping an arm around you and pulling you closer, resting her cheek on your head and stay so for awhile, hoping it will be enough to calm you down.
،،̲. Only after you did calm down, she’ll slide a question or two. “Did something happen?” Or “What is going on inside your big brain, mh?” ruffling your hair, throwing a harmless joke in hope to gift you a smile, and then beginning her monologues on how your feelings are valid, but your brain has no reason for making you feel that way. She’ll just... Bring back reason to you. Patiently, kindly.
Caitlyn.
،،̲. Caitlyn is probably the most “awkward”, for lack of better words, at comforting someone. Even if she loves you with every fiber of her being, she’s the type of person who would be completely lost in front of your teary eyes.
،،̲. Having grown emotionally neglected, she isn’t experienced with confronting one’s emotion, indeed she’ll be almost scared of touching you even. She’ll keep physically distant, trying to have you open up instead.
،،̲. But, most of the times, it will result more like an interrogation than an actual comforting. It’s like she needs to find a culprit, the cause that made you feel that way so that she can take care of it as soon as possible. In her mind, it will solve your sorrow.
،،̲. She’s pragmatic, careful. She wants to give you a concrete solution to an abstract issue— even if you just need a hug, or a kiss.
،،̲. And do not get me wrong. She will kiss you and hug and pamper you all you want, after you voice your requests... But she still wants to comprehend if the issue can be physically resolved.
Sevika.
،،̲. I feel like there’s people who believe she would be the most “awkward” one at comforting, but I disagree.
،،̲. Sevika is a grown woman, the oldest of this list, and she’s shown multiple times in the show that she is an emotional aware person (ex: her “father-daughter” discourse to Silco in S1)... Though she’s also tremendously emotionally unavailable.
،،̲. This woman isn’t stranger to depression, nor anxiety. Nobody who grew up in the Lanes is, and she knows how you’re feeling. She isn’t much of a speech giver, or a hugger, or a “practical problem solver”. Sevika is... Calm. Collected. A paradox to the burst of rage she usually is.
،،̲. Unusually, undoubtedly, unbearably calm. She stares at you with void eyes, a neutral expression that hides a hint of sourness and sorry she doesn’t want to show. She’ll slide a glass of water toward your direction, waiting, hoping, for you to return to normal.
،،̲. Yet you rarely do. That’s when she sighs and goes to your side. Her hand goes to stroke your back. She struggles. “It’s... Okay. It is.” Being so serious results like an incredibly challenging task to her. But she’ll keep trying, if you need.
Mel.
،،̲. Mel is the only one of the list who knows what to do almost perfectly. She is comfortable with emotions, difficult conversations, anything that might seem like a challenge for many, she digs it.
،،̲. She views your need for help, and your request to be comforted by her, as a honor she makes dear to her heart; following your flow effortlessly.
،،̲. If you want physical contact, she’ll give it to you however you prefer. If you’d rather just vent, she’ll listen, and won’t interrupt until you’re done talking. Then, if you want an opinion from her – and you always do – she will share her takes with grace and politeness.
،،̲. Honestly, sometimes she could even sound like a professional therapist. Her talent with words is immaculate, she’ll tell you what you need to hear most as if reading you like an open book.
،،̲. It is scary almost. Is her perfection a natural talent, or a mastering of what she’s wished to have for her younger self?
