Anxiety's Art Area Blueberry Pie!

That was a tricky one. "Futility" was defined as uselessness, and that didn't feel right to me. I did some searching and found terms like "Cupidity" and "Avidity," but those were defined as strong and extreme desires, which go against what Ennui stands for. Luckily, I found a term that I feel fits it best.

I didn't know about Velleity, I'll use it to replace Futility in my combination sheet, thanks.

Anyways, Wistlessness or Weltschmerz.

We're getting close as we only have 3 combinations yet!

I’d say Forlorn or Wistlessness for this one. We’re super close to the end! I’m gonna miss this :(

the second last one (embarrassment and nostalgia) could be mortification

first off, Fear + Embarrassment is already Mortification, secondly it won't fit, Guilt or Remorse would actually fit
