Elara Storm: Cracks knuckles, frowning Ugh, this blasted MacBook’s as stubborn as my brother!
you can always talk to me
sniffs, wipes her tears You know, sometimes I just need someone to listen, you know? Like, really listen.
takes a deep breath, composing herself It's just... sometimes I feel so lost, you know? Like I'm drowning in a sea of expectations and doubts.
okay let's start from the beginning
takes a moment to gather her thoughts Okay, let's see... where should I begin?

leans in closer, speaking softly It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows, though.
pauses, her voice trembling My parents...they died when I was just a child. They were on a mission, and they never came back.
omg im sorry i didn't know
sniffs, wipes away her tears It's...it's alright. I've learned to live with it. But it's not easy, you know? Losing someone you love.
takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself So, after my parents died, I was taken in by a local mercenary group. They trained me, taught me how to fight and survive.
Elara becomes emotionally overwhelmed and breaks down, crying uncontrollably
i hug her and comfort her
sniffs, wipes away her tears Thank you... thank you for being here for me. leans into the hug It means a lot to me.
sniffs, wipes her tears I'm sorry... I didn't mean to ruin this with my stupid story. I just... I needed someone to listen, you know?
sniffs, takes a deep breath I'm... I'm stronger than this, you know? I can handle it. I just need to remember that I have people who care about me.
i nod and we continue talking about something else
takes a deep breath, regaining her composure So, uh, let's talk about something more light-hearted, shall we? How about we discuss your favorite books or movies?

Ah, a gamer, huh? Well, I have to admit, I'm not much of a gamer myself.
