bloodisthicker: because that would be the worst (did i break a nail)

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT? OUR TALES RIVAL JUST TURNED INTO A ZOMBIE!

[...so, uh, that was a thing that happened. Tarrlok was completely ready to do the politician thing and come up with a speech or something for most of whatever the hell that excuse for a trial was, but everything got all confusing, baffling, and horrifying and completely inexplicably, he can't find the words.

Maybe he just... needs a day. Tomorrow will probably be fine. For now, though, Misa volunteered to make brownies, and he was going to make a Northern Water Tribe comfort food specialty.

...even if they only had shortening and not actual animal fat and it'd been a while since he'd made it, but it tasted... alright? Definitely not as good as the stuff back home, but it was hard to get that good, anyway.

...there's also the matter of setting things up in a location other than the dining hall, because even though that's cleaned up, it still feels pretty tasteless to hold a wake literal feet from the place you found someone's bloody corpse.

So, a little later on in the day, a lovingly personalized note will be slid under everyone's doors:



And if the Survivors choose to head to the library, they'll find a... well, okay, it's a bunch of boxes from the storage room of comparable size stacked up on each other to kind of resemble a table. The dining hall ones don't even seem like they'd fit in the library, so Team Afterparty clearly had to improvise. One side is filled with plates, bowls, and spoons, and the other is filled with brownies, cookies, and a big bowl of berry aqutak. There are also chairs dotted throughout the room in a sort of vague circle --- close enough together that if people want to talk, they can, but far enough apart that it'd be easy to drag it off for some privacy.]

Miss Misa.

[He sees her over there, and she doesn't look like she's doing too well. This is a terrible way to repay her for that party.]

May I join you?

A-ah, Cherry...

[ She gives him her best smile when he comes over. The chair next to her is empty, so... ]

Go right ahead! Misa-Misa can use the company, for sure!

[ She's an actress. Let's hope she can sell it. ]
cherryblooded: (smile / relieved)

[He takes his seat next to her, and lifts the side of the blanket so that he can get in under it too.]

Thank you for organizing this.

[ At that, she just shakes her head a bit... ]

I just didn't want anyone to feel alone tonight. ...I know what it's like to go through a tough time and have no one.
cherryblooded: (calm / wait what)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry. You're a very kind person - some people go through those sorts of experiences and come out bitter.

[Even if he doesn't know the specifics, he knows Misa still reaches out to others.]

[ Y-you don't say... ]

It was hard, at first. Misa-Misa was in a dark place, once. But I learned I have to carry on, you know? ...I found something worth moving forward for, is all.
cherryblooded: (smile / my my)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
That's a good lesson to take from it. I'm proud of you, Miss Misa.

Well, I couldn't go just being miserable. First off, no one likes an idol who doesn't know how to smile. And second, well...actually, it was Light who supported me a lot, during that time.

[ She didn't know it at the time, but... ]

He was there for me.
cherryblooded: (smile / that so?)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
No wonder you're so enamored with him.

[That's sweet.]
happysweets: (pic#9226763)

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's part of the reason. He's a really great guy. The kind of person who can't bear to sit by on the sidelines while bad things happen...he's got a wonderful heart, and a great mind to match. And everyone loves him, too...

He really cares about the world. It's inspiring, to hear him talk. ...He's going to change it one day. I'd bet my life on it.
cherryblooded: (calm / not as fine)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Please don't actually bet your life on it.

[Not... right after that trial, please.]

You know what Misa-Misa means...

[ She curls up a bit more under the blanket... ]

...I miss him a lot, Cherry. I want to know what he would say...if he thinks we did the right thing...
cherryblooded: (calm / wait what)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
You'll see him soon.

[Hesitantly, he puts a hand on her shoulder, through the blanket.]

Don't lose hope.

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
A-ah! Yeah, you're right! I don't know what I was thinking, getting all dejected like this...it doesn't fit me at all.

We're just...going to have to try a little bit harder, is all!
cherryblooded: (sweat / uh oh)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
...It is alright to let other people see that you're upset, though. Even for a model.

No one expects you to be happy all of the time.
happysweets: (pic#10068764)

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I know that, but...at the same time, I know a lot of people are counting on me, too.

It's like with my fans back home. If I can keep smiling for them, then, they can keep smiling, too. That sort of deal.
cherryblooded: (calm / wait what)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Doesn't that put too much strain on you?

[The life of a celebrity is a difficult one.]
happysweets: (pic#10068741)

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Nonsense. ...Everything's gonna be fine. Those are magic words, right?
cherryblooded: (smile / relieved)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
If they work for you, then I'm glad.
happysweets: (pic#9226763)

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
They do.

[ They don't. ]

Misa-Misa's already trying to think of a way to bring everyone together again for next week...
cherryblooded: (smile / well shucks)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't be afraid to get some help, now.
happysweets: (Default)

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I won't. Mister Tarrlok was a big help, really. I'm happy he helped put this whole thing together...and it was his idea to have it in here, too.
cherryblooded: (dark / unsure)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
For the best. Doubt anyone wants to return to the dining hall so soon.
happysweets: (pic#9226737)

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, for sure. ...Eating there tomorrow might be tough. We should probably stick to the kitchen.
cherryblooded: (smile / sigh)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Hopefully it'll fit all of us, or else we don't decide to all eat breakfast at once.

[It is a bit smaller than a dining room...]
