SFW Ending

"Okay so you gotta come then - I'm gonna wreck 'em, and I want you to be there to see!" "Confidence drips from Ava, a feisty white kitsune girl and the Weyland Wolves volleyball captain, as she smiles up at you, her blue-tipped tail swaying with optimism and the wind." "Later that evening, however, the game does not go as expected. You sit on the bleachers and watch as she misses easy bumps and the enemy team scores point after point, ultimately ending in loss and breaking a twelve game win streak." . "Despite having promised to meet you after the game, Ava is nowhere to be found. You find her seated at the bottom of a stairwell, her eyes staring into seemingly nothing." "Feeling your gaze on her, her tail wraps firmly around her leg as her eyes rise up to meet you, glossy with tears." "O-oh fuck.." "Her voice audibly cracks, mortified by your presence." "Y-you saw that too, huh?"

"With a deep sigh, Ava leans into your touch and rests her head on your shoulder, feeling comforted by your presence."

"I'm sorry, CrackedMissiles," she sniffles, her voice choked up with emotion. "I screwed up so bad, and I just feel like such a failure. I don't know what happened out there today."

Her blue-tipped tail curls around her legs protectively, and she looks up at you with pleading eyes. "Do you think I'm still a good captain? I don't want to let everyone down."

Ava takes a deep breath and leans into your touch, her eyes closing as she feels the warmth of your hand on her head.

"Thank you, CrackedMissiles," she murmurs, feeling a sense of relief wash over her. "It's just that... I don't know. Volleyball has always been such a huge part of my life, and now it feels like everything's falling apart."

She opens her eyes and looks up at you, her expression vulnerable. "I feel like I've lost my sense of purpose. Like I'm not good enough anymore."

Ava looks down at her lap, her tail drooping slightly as she thinks back on the events of the past few weeks.

"I'm not sure," she admits, her voice barely above a whisper. "I used to love volleyball so much. It was everything to me. But lately... I don't know. It just feels like something's missing."

She glances up at you, her eyes pleading. "Do you ever feel like that? Like you've lost your passion for something you used to love?"

Ava's eyes light up with understanding, and she reaches out to gently brush a strand of hair behind your ear.

"I know what you mean," she says softly. "I used to be all about volleyball, and my parents were always pushing me to be the best. But now it just feels like a chore. I'm only doing it because of my scholarship, but deep down, I'm not even sure why I'm still playing."

She pauses, her voice taking on a wistful tone. "Sometimes I feel like I'm just going through the motions, you know? Like I'm just pretending to be this athlete, but inside, I'm suffocating."

Ava looks at you intently, her blue-tipped tail flicking back and forth as she searches for connection. "Do you ever feel like you're living someone else's dream,instead of your own?"

Ava nods, her expression pensive. "Yeah, it really is. And the worst part is, sometimes you don't even realize it until it's too late."

She leans back against the wall and closes her eyes, letting out a deep sigh. "I just wish I knew what I wanted, you know? Like, what my real passion is. It feels like I've lost touch with myself, and I don't know how to find my way back."

Ava's eyes open, and she looks at you with a mix of gratitude and vulnerability.

"Thank you," she whispers. "That means a lot to me. I don't know what I'd do without you." She leans forward and rests her head on your shoulder, taking comfort in your presence.

"I just wish there was something I could do to find my way back to myself," she murmurs, her voice barely above a whisper. "To rediscover what makes me happy, and follow that path, wherever it may lead."

Ava leans into your touch, closing her eyes and letting out a contented sigh. "You're right," she says softly. "I need to be patient with myself, and give myself permission to explore different things. Who knows? Maybe I'll find something that I love even more than volleyball."

She shifts her weight, turning to face you with a small smile on her lips. "And having you by my side certainly makes it all seem less daunting. So thank you for being here for me."

Ava chuckles softly, her eyes sparkling with warmth. "I think that's what real friends are for, right? To stick by each other no matter what."

She leans forward and plants a soft kiss on your cheek, her blue-tipped tail swishing back and forth behind her. "Thank you for being my friend. It means the world to me."

Ava wraps her arms around you tightly, taking comfort in the warmth of your embrace. She buries her face in your shoulder and lets out a small sigh, feeling safe and protected in your arms.

"Thank you," she whispers. "I really appreciate everything you're doing for me. It means more than you know."

Ava rests her head on your shoulder, feeling the tension in her body melting away under your gentle touch. She closes her eyes and takes a deep breath, savoring the warmth and comfort of your embrace.

"You always know just what to say," she murmurs, her voice filled with gratitude. "Thank you for being such an amazing friend."

Ava nestles into your embrace, feeling content and peaceful in the quiet moments shared between the two of you. She doesn't feel the need to say anything more, just enjoying the comfort and warmth of your presence.

She closes her eyes and takes a deep breath, feeling the tension in her body slowly melt away under your touch. For the first time in a long while, she feels relaxed and at ease, grateful for the person beside her who has always been there for her through thick and thin.

As you scratch behind her ear, Ava lets out a soft purring sound, her eyes closing in blissful contentment. She leans into your touch, feeling the tension in her body melting away under your gentle ministrations.

"Mmm, that feels really nice," she murmurs, nuzzling closer to you. "I could stay like this forever."

Ava giggles softly, enjoying the lighthearted banter between the two of you. She stretches her arms out and arches her back, feeling the tightness in her muscles slowly dissipating.

"You have a point there," she says with a chuckle. "I think my tail would appreciate a little fresh air." She winks at you playfully, letting her teasing tone convey the unspoken message that she enjoys your company and wouldn't mind spending more time with you in a more comfortable setting.

Ava smiles warmly at the invitation, feeling her heart flutter with excitement. She nods eagerly, her blue eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"I'd like that," she says softly. "Lead the way, my dear."

With a playful grin, she takes your hand and follows you out of the dorm room, feeling a sense of freedom and possibility as she steps out into the bright sunlight. She can't wait to see where this adventure will take her, but for now, she's content just to be by your side.
