//I just went back and read the whole thing with Orion and now I’m sad
I don’t even know these characters and I’ve gotten attached oops

//lmao hi, it’s me, the bored rper

(Ok here we go) Sam was stunned by Orion. He could feel himself burning the shorter man, but Orion seemed to not care. He seemed more concerned with Sam than anything else. The sentiment made him want to cry a little. In fact, it made him want to cry a lot. Sam leaned down a little and hugged Orion back, an ugly sob wrenching itself from his throat

Orion didn't flinch back at the sob, and simply continued to cling to his friend. Starting to hum softly, he held him, refusing to let go. In the woods, in a burnt clearing, a creature created by darkness, and a god accidentally summoned, supported each other, lived with each other. The two, however different, had found a common ground. One of protectiveness and strength. One of acceptance.

(omg I'm gonna make Lata hug the sad melty dad)
Lata snapped out of her thoughts hearing a wail from the front of the house. Sam…?
She stood up out of Lucy's embrace thanking her for helping her out. She dragged the older mage along with her to find Orion and Sam hugging. And Sam was… crying? That was new.

Sam felt himself crying before he could stop it, the tears near boiling. He felt his body begin to slowly cool, and he leaned a little on Orion. "I…I'm so sorry," he sniffled

(Screaming, I can’t handle it)

Lucy allowed Lata to tug her toward the sound of sobbing. Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw that it was Sam. She didn’t know whether to feel more sympathetic or shocked in the moment.

(Welcome to me torturing my characters lmao) Sam noticed the others in the distance, and he told himself to stop crying, that they didn't need to see him like this. It backfired spectacularly, the weight of the past millennia suddenly crashing down on him. He started to cry more, hugging Orion tighter

Lata didn't care how rude Sam was at times. She didn't even care about the rips in her sweater from Orion's panic attack. She had a feeling that everyone needed this hug desperately. She ran forward and joined the others and nearly cried. This was her family now.
