The fact that it's become too much has hit you all at once, and you've hidden yourself in the one place you know people won't come looking.
Contains: Confessions, Comfort, Emotions, Cuddling
Muriel comfort! I know he's not that good with words, but he tries, damnit. But yes, people wanted the big mountain man to cuddle and hold them, and I tried to deliver with some comfort and encouragement! I had fun with this script because Muriel is my favorite in Arcana lol. I hope you all enjoy!

Muriel:
*door opens*
I'm back Inanna.
*pause*
Inanna? Did you leave somehow?
*slightly louder*
Inanna?
*dog whine*
W-what?
Inanna....what--- what's going on?
Are they--? Are you......are you alright? What happened? Are you hurt, are you--?
*gasps softly*
I--I don't---where....where does it hurt?
*pause*
*swallows*
Y-you're.....you're not injured.....then why are you?
Oh.....please.....here....please....d-don't cry....I.......here......let me........will.....I mean.....do you....want to be.....touched......if you'd rather I not I can.....I can leave and.....
*dog bruff*
Yes....right....alright......here......let me.....
*huffs a breath*
Oh.....I......hey now.....uh.......shhhh....shh......it's......it's alright.....let it--let it out......take your time.....
*long pause*
So you're sure you're not injured anywhere.....?
*swallows*
Alright....yes....forgive me....I'll just......hold....you......
*long pause*
Do you.....wish to.....talk about....what's going on.....? If---if you don't you don't have to, I simply......
*pause*
I.....I see.......
*longer pause*
Well.....d-do you wish to know.....what I think?
I....I know that from the looks of everything that.....everything is all....resting on your shoudlers.......but you do know that.....you don't have to endure it all alone? You have Nadia.....you have Asra....when he is around and.....Faust and......well......
*swallows*
You have.....me......
*dog bruff?*
Yes, and Inanna.......she's been taking care of for.....who knows how long.....
That's just it though......I know it's hard to remember and it feels like you're alone, but you're not.....you have....a support system.......some who are ready....and willing.....to....die....for you.......
If need be......
*pause*
*breathes*
*softly* I.....I don't know what I would do if I lost you either.....
That's why....I'm willing.....to help keep you safe.....to help you keep this world safe......
I'm not going to give less of myself to you than I have to anything else in my life.....
*pause*
...Especially the gladiator games......
You......you've given me more purpose.......more..... than anything else......you.....*swallows* You make me nervous....and embarrassed....and sad....and worried.....but also....happy and....content....and---
For the longest time....before you.....I was content with living with everyone forgetting me.....with everyone leaving me alone......
*pause*
But that's the thing.....you......inserted yourself into my life.....you showed me.......kindness and softness that wasn't pity.....you've.....you've never feared me despite.....how I look....you.....also asserted yourself without fear.....you've talked back to me, you've talked me out of doing things that weren't smart.....you......treated me like I was.....someone who was....who was......worthwhile.....who was.....worthy....of your attention......even outside of.......
*pause*
Well.....to me....it seems....it felt.....it like you.....you want to spend time with me.....not because it's convenient for you or......you just using me because I'm useful it......
It feels like you come to me because you genuinely enjoy my company and that you like me and trust me and.......I..... to you......
And....and I haven't felt that way.....in a long time......
I've been used to feeling useful....and only that.....but......
No....what I......what you.....when I'm with you....I don't think I've ever felt.....what I feel when you're here.....when you're around.....
Seeing you hurt.....even....emotionally......perhaps......especially emotionally....fills me with sadness and worry and....some dread.....because.....if you're physically injured....I feel as though....there is at least that I can do to help you....
Emotionally.....I'm afraid I'm terrible at emotional things......and....I never know what to say......or how to say it.....and......I don't feel like I can......adequately.....provide help.......
*pause*
I.....I am? You think.......I do?
*pause*
I....I think Asra said that to me once.....that....for someone who seems as though I don't care.....I care immensely.....
I....I do....for those.....who are close to me.....for those who matter to me.....I....I care.....
......
I wish I could ease your mind.....and completely lift this....this weight off your shoulders.......but at the very least.....I can help make it.....at least a little more bearable.....for you....
*pause*
I....I am....helping?
*huffs a soft laugh* I....well....I'm glad....that......being here....for you.....helps......and know that........you....you matter....to me.....so....so very much and.......I would do........to help you.....
I mean it.......anything.......
Even if it's just for me to hold you.....even if it's for this place to be somewhere where you can escape and not worry for a while......I'll be here.....and......I'll do my best to help you........any way you need......
*pause*
You're going to do it......I know you are.....there's.....something about you....whenever I see you......when I see the amazing things that you do.....as well as.....well the no so incredible things......I think....."They're different.....there's something about them that.......that makes me believe that......everything is going to be alright in the end....."
You.....you may not believe in yourself......but......do you believe in me?
*pause*
Then....believe in me.....who believes in you.......you can do it.......I know it.......
