i'll wait, so show me why you're strong

[ Generally, people need time to cope and gather themselves after a... thing... like that. Unfortunately, that's not how Vanille sees it. Her thing is avoid, and once she gets out of that hellhole that's the courtroom, she makes her way to the supplies closet, then to the library. She spends some time setting up things, pushing things aside to make room. Once she's finished, and she's met up with the Party Brigade, she makes enough invitations for everyone. She slips them under everyone's doors, or hands them out if she sees someone walking around.



Inside the library, there are candles set up to provide some soft, comforting lighting. There are pots of tea, courtesy of Mercy, pancakes made by Viktor, and books (picked out by Estelle, of course) laid out on the surrounding tables. The others have provided their own touches, and Vanille's even managed to make something: sugar cookies, which are actually very good. They're flavored lightly with all sorts of flavors--not all in the same cookie, okay--and each plate is marked with whatever flavor she's put in them.

After a successful trial, it's healthy to indulge, right? Let's mingle. ]

I'm... alright. I meditated a little, that helped.

[ She, too, seems tired but trying to be happy. ]

I am a monk, it's kind of our thing.

[ A tired smile. ]

It is. Maybe I should see if anyone else wants to meditate too.

Not at all! Anytime. I get the feeling I'm going to be doing a lot of it here.

Sure! Would you be more comfortable using my room or yours? The soundproofing makes the rooms ideal for that kind of thing.

Hey now, you getting sleep is important too. [ keep the small vanilla safe and healthy 2k17!!! ] But if you want to use my room, that's fine with me. My door is... well, not always open, I do keep it locked a lot, but just knock and I'll let you in.

Sure! You got it. [ She smiles, but like big this time. ] This will be fun!
iamthatsea: (cute)

[personal profile] iamthatsea 2017-01-29 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. A friend.

[ She made a friend!!!! ]

Have you ever meditated before?
iamthatsea: (neritic)

[personal profile] iamthatsea 2017-01-29 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Can do! It's easier than you might think, once you get the hang of it.

Since I started training. So... a really long time, since I was raised in the monastery.

Yeah. I miss it a lot, but... water changes and adapts, and so can I. It'll be there when we find a way out.

[ This is the kind of line ripe for looking back on in two memory regains and laughcrying. ]

The Emulan order holds water in regard above all other things, and... well I can't here, but usually I can control it and heal things with it.

[ HAHA SURPRISE SHE'S A HEALER THIS IS ALL A LITTLE. ROUGHER. THAN SHE LETS ON. ]

But that's not working here! Which is sort of like being without a limb, but uh. Change and adapt. Surely the Bluemother is testing me.

Yeah. I've been managing, but... this place is really, really different from Akopos.

Yup. Lost and confused but figuring things out.
