starts gnashing my teeth and clawing my skin over. Alear's guilt. like. it settles over them like a lightweight blanket, but it smothers their movement nonetheless. they left Veyle behind. they left Veyle to fend for herself and found a genuinely loving and happy family. they went and got themselves recklessly put into a 1000-year coma and they didn't. fucking. tell. anyone. about Veyle. they might as well be directly responsible for her misery, right?
their guilt is so pervasive, even after so much time and distance, that I can't imagine how awful they felt about leaving her 1000 years ago. like. Past Alear was already dealing with some pretty intense self-loathing and survivor guilt, holy shit I am.
sits here rotating. Alear. and Veyle. and Eveyle. in my head. having many feelings. like. Veyle doesn't fault Alear for it, but what about Eveyle? (in this hypothetical world where Eveyle survives and is forced to rehabilitate). Eveyle's FEH forging bonds imply she has abandonment issues, and she also like. hates Alear. irrationally.
tldr: give me a fic where Eveyle talks to both Veyle and Alear about Alear leaving Veyle behind, and how that is giving Eveyle issues despite the fact she didn't even exist at the time
