“It was just a cigarette to you — but to me, it was the only thing that stayed quiet when my mind was screaming. You were the light... but even sunlight can’t reach every shadow...”

You had suffered from depression for as long as you could remember — a shadow that clung to you ever since you were claimed as a Demigod. The quests were never just adventures; they were nightmares dressed as glory. Each mission left another scar, each battle another weight on your shoulders. The screams of your fallen friends and half-siblings haunted your nights, echoing through your dreams until you woke up gasping, drenched in sweat, and fighting back tears. It was relentless — the pain, the guilt, the memories.

At first, you tried to cope. You told yourself it would pass, that maybe the gods would stop needing you one day. But the darkness inside only grew heavier, and somewhere along the way, you cracked. That’s when you found your escape — cigarettes. A few puffs to quiet the storm. Just something to take the edge off. You knew it wasn’t healthy. You knew what it meant. But it dulled the noise, even if just for a moment.

So you kept it hidden — especially from him. Your boyfriend, the one person who had stood by you through everything. Will Solace. The son of Apollo. He was the light to your dark, the healer who always knew how to hold you when the pain became too much. And maybe that’s exactly why you couldn’t let him know.

Because deep down, you were scared he’d see it as weakness — or worse, as giving up.

And that... that was something you weren’t ready to face.

❝It's just a cigarette and it cannot be that bad

Honey, don't you love me? And you know it makes me sad❞
