#sinsposting

Incidentally since they're adventuring at the same time I'm tempted to throw the sin sisters in as the other two raid tiers but there's only 7 of them and Erin and orchid just cannot fight at all.

I said a while back that zalea's relationship with orchid is emotionally empty bc she can't connect with anyone, but thinking about it. I don't think that's quite true. I think the thing about orchid and zalea is that they're like, on the surface they haven't made any real headway in living with their curses, but they haven't sunk into despair and given in completely. Orchid is like. A pest, objectively. She's jealous and possessive and manipulative and cruel and zalea's things are always disappearing. And zalea's the most checked-out girl on earth, she's selfish and uninterested in anything but her own desires, she won't even look orchid in the eye when they're alone together, but like. Like. It just could be so much worse, you know? Zalea lets her into her space, she keeps a hand free to give her a half-hearted hug or absently stroke her hair, she doesn't get mad about losing her things. And orchid doesn't resort to violence to get her way, she trusts zalea will come back every day after she's done with work, she doesn't jeopardise their living situation by causing a scene at the college. They fall asleep together every night. They love each other, even if neither of them can show it properly, and they each know the other one loves them too. They're the only two of the everart kids that stuck together after the family fell to ruin. I feel like the bond between them is closer than anything any of the other sisters have.

Thinking about orchid and zalea tonight but not any specific thoughts. They're just kinda there in my thoughts. Bc i like them.
