Who Does Your Character Go to When Hurt?
At first, Atbash would have told you she went to her brothers or her mother. Her brothers were always the closest to her and tried to sympathize with her the most, whereas her mother would try to offer comforting words, but always end up reminding her that she would have to get used to being treated much more harshly by other people. Even as they got older, Atbash always went to her brothers, though whenever Vigenere was Chosen to be apart of the King's Guard, she just started talking to Caesar. Caesar had started to grow distant from her and only really talked to her when he was upset, but she didn't care, because usually talking to him distracted her from whatever was bothering her. After Caesar destroyed their Home Dimension, Atbash got closer to Vigenere, but then he chased her off.
Now in Snowbound, Atbash would have said Cry. The raven had been there for her since she joined and was the first person to know about her past. It was a good way to actually get the stress off of her chest, and Atbash was thankful that Cry was willing to talk to her, even if Cry herself didn't offer a whole lot about her own past. Atbash understood that; after all, they still had been strangers. Then Cry disappeared, and Atbash had to talk to Jacob about things, mostly due to the whole human situation. But Cry came back and Atbash was able to talk to her closest friend again, and things had been easy for a while. Cry actually started opening up to her, too.
Then Cry disappeared again and Atbash was almost stuck with nobody to talk to. But that wasn't true; she had Dimitri and Izuku. Atbash couldn't recall if she told Izuku what was up with her family but by now, it probably wasn't hard to piece things together. Izuku was always understanding and quiet, though that may be in part due to in being a Frosthealer. He was expected to be the tribe's therapist of sorts, but even if he wasn't, Atbash was sure she would talk to him if she had to. Dimitri was somebody who knew her past now, though that was only because Atbash felt obligated to tell him due to him talking to her about his mental disorder. She trusted him, though; trusted all of his alters.
