This and Diary of Secrets… I won't dwell on how it was found and how people reacted, but I will try to write the contents of the diary itself (a small challenge to my weak writing skills). This won't be all the entries. But a certain part:
Entry 1. So I need to calm down… My situation is certainly not standard, but if I don't calm down now, my nerves and emotions will drive me to something drastic… I can't allow myself to do that. So first, I need to describe who I am. Hi, I'm an ordinary person, a woman. I'm 2 (between 20 and 30), I'm a resident of planet Earth, well, I was before I came here… Now I'm Furina! MC, a fake hydro archon… I won't lie that I'm the human part of a real archon, because that's not true… Before THIS… I was human, a normal person, the youngest child in my family, they love me, and I love them. I have many hobbies, and first and foremost… I'm a mother. I became a mother. Lord… how unusual it is to think about this… But my newborn child is my purpose in life. But, Lord… I didn't even know the sex of my baby, I was literally left alone right after giving birth… I'm a terrible mother. teardrops visible on the yellowed paper
Entry 5. Now I've been a hydro archon for a couple of weeks now, or rather, acting hydro archon. I decided not to lie… I won't tell people all the information, because I have many years to rule, and every time I lie, I start to worry… Why have I become so emotional? Yes, I wasn't particularly strong-willed in the past, and I was used to the fact that my family would be there if anything happened. But… I panic at the slightest attempt to lie. And tears flow at the slightest sad story (although if it's a lie, nothing will happen; I've become very good at recognizing when someone is lying to me). Maybe it's hormones? But my body hasn't given birth yet, unless… a dot is visible on the paper, as if the person pressed very hard on the pen I really hope this goes away. Otherwise, I face many years in a postpartum state.
Entry 10. About a year has passed since I was admitted to Fontaine. Recently, I met a boy in the city, fussy, too loud… but so lively. He often walks with me around the city, sometimes begging for something from the bakery. And he's such a sly one, he knows how to flirt with me, I just can't refuse him. It's like my son asking me to buy him treats before dinner. I asked him if his parents would scold him for eating sweets before dinner, and he said he doesn't have parents. I'm so ashamed.
Entry 11. I know I'm acting on my emotions right now, but I've decided to adopt Eugene. I'm just getting his room and paperwork ready. I haven't told him yet… I'm afraid of how he'll react, but I'll accept his refusal. And I'll just offer him a roof over his head.
Entry 110. Eugene died… it's been four days since his funeral. Yana wasn't prepared for this… HE WAS ONLY 16! HE LIVED WITH ME FOR ONLY 10 YEARS. HE JUST GOT TO THE AGE WHERE HE SHOULD HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE! FIND YOUR ONE, DO STUPID THINGS, MAKE ME WORRY ABOUT HIS WELL-BEING (all teenagers do that, I was ready with my hair really gray). But… He died… He died only because the security guards weren't doing their job! Their job is to keep the city safe! And they were just drinking!!! AT THEIR WORKPLACE!!! I'LL FIRE YOU! AND PUT YOU ON TRIAL! And it's not just Eugene's death… Ten teenagers died. I should have insisted on that jerk's execution.
Entry 250. My first friend from Sumeru recently died. She died of a fever. And she asked me to look after her daughter. At first, I wanted to give the baby up for adoption, because I'm not fit to be a mother. But… Her frail little body clung so tightly to me. I couldn't resist it. This little girl has no one. Her mother didn't know her father, and she moved from Sumeru to escape her abusive parents. Hope, my dear hope, I know I'm a lousy parent, but I promise you, I'll do everything for my happiness.
Entry 267. My little girl got married! My son-in-law is a good guy, and even though we often fight over trivial things, we still love each other. A typical mother-in-law and son-in-law relationship. Hope joked that she didn't know how she would explain to her children in the future why Dad and Grandma constantly fight over how to properly make pizza, but are willing to go against everything in Fontaine for each other. Well, that's a problem for the future.
Entry 280. My little girl recently lost her first love; the guy contracted some kind of mysterious disease, and I'm sad he died. And the marriage only lasted 10 years… I want to cry; he became like a son to me… But I'll hold on, Hope needs all my support.
Entry 340. Hope is 74. She never had children and never found another lover; maybe it was just my high standards. But Hope said she had no regrets. Hah, maybe I'm not a complete disappointment as a parent. She's asleep now, but the doctors say… she doesn't have much longer…
Entry 345. HOW THIS DAMN DRAGON PITCHES ME!!! HE JUST ARRIVED AND IS ALREADY MAKING A REMARK THAT I'M THE MOST PATHETIC USURPER HE'S EVER MET. I'M SORRY! IT'S NOT YOUR DAUGHTER WHO JUST DIED A WEEK AGO!
Entry 404. Nevillette and I entered into a political marriage. There was no love, but I don't need it. Not in my life before Teyvat, and not now.
Entry 420. Nevillette brought the Melusines. I expected it, but… it's giving me a headache again. The Melusines aren't to blame, but I keep wondering how to accept them in Fontaine… I had the idea of adopting them, I don't know if it will work out or not… but we'll see.
Entry 423. Adoption is on! Yes, it's essentially a formal adoption, but this way they'll be under my protection! I know I told them it was just a formality… But… I want to be a mother again. And the Melusines live longer than mortals, I won't have to watch them pass away… I understand it's just the postpartum hormones that never went away. But… what's so bad about that? Maybe this way I'll have a reason to live, and I'll have a reason not to look at the rope…
Entry 438. KERON DIED!!!! MY ONLY DAUGHTER, MILYUSINA, WHO ACCEPTED ME, DIED!!!
Entry 440. A new newspaper has come out in Fontaine… It's called: Archon's Another Tantrum. They talk as if Keron's death is meaningless… I'm getting worse. I'm thinking more and more about bad things. I can just end this… just open the window and jump… Or… I know where the Primordial Sea is! I can just go there! And it will end… but it's true…
Entry 526. sheet of paper stained with dried blood Cutting your throat doesn't work either. How can that be! Not starvation, not broken bones, not air purging, not poison, nothing helps!!! I'm already thinking about going to the abyss and trying there… but I feel like nothing will work…
Entry 945. Today I met little Risley. He's so cute. You know what, screw canon. I'll lock up those monsters today.
Entry 950. The arrest of those monsters was lifted! They simply said there was no reason! And are the children afraid of any adult, and what about the bruises on their bodies? THAT'S NOT PROOF?! AND I LEARNED THAT THEY WERE ONLY RELEASED BECAUSE RIZLEY IS ON TRIAL! WHAT THE HELL NEUVILLETTE!? DO YOU HAVE WATER INSTEAD OF BRAIN?
Entry 978. I know there are two years left until canon. But screw it all, slipping Nevillette a divorce paper turned out to be easier than I thought. Lie about buying a rare tea variety in Liyue that hadn't been brought to us before, and he signed the divorce papers. Voila! The Miluzins are still adults and don't need guardianship. And after the prophecy, I'll just run away, I don't know where, but far away! And I'll become human… Maybe my hormones will finally calm down…
999 Tomorrow is my home trial. I decided to try something. I forced some water from the primordial sea into myself, in a dissolvable capsule. Right during the trial or immediately after, the water should dissolve me from the inside. And voila! No Furina role! MC.
I'll leave the characters' reactions and how they find the diaries to you. I'll be off. I have my first job interview ever. Bye-bye!!!
This... this was sad, really sad... oh gosh, the angst- 😢
The diaries were probably found once people were starting to look in Furina!MC 'disappearance', finding them in a secret compartment in their room.
And you know what can make it worse? If Wriothesley actually hated her once Neuvillette put him back with his parentd AND then trial. He thought SHE push for him to be returned, for all his sibling to be returned to his 'parents'... because Neuvillette told him so.
Because he was a 'troublesome' child.
This is what probably really broke Furina!MC, and what pushed her closer to just... ending it all...
And as for reactions, if we add in my Wriothesley idea, I can only just imagine the Duke SLOWLY turning to the Sovereign, and saying, "You... you were the one-", before lunging to punch him-
But everyone else's reactions vary, even Neuvillette's... probably. He didn't know any of this, really! That woman never said anything-
She shouldn't have to say anything! You were her husband! You should've noticed something was wrong! But NO! You didn't! ...No one didn't...
