I'll wait, so show me why you're strong
[And so the day's trial for the attempted murder of Gabriel Knight draw to a close with... charitably better results then usual.
They were alive, at the least, but that didn't mean there wasn't several blows against the trust that had been built up here. One mole that attempted murder, another that quit, and another that was given the offer no doubt put strain on several relationships... most notably Sigrun's.
It was all, in a word... frankly shitty. But now it's all out there, no sense in trying to get it back.
An hour (or two) after the "trial" ends and everyone's gone off on their own business, Speedwagon heads back to the kitchen. It was the usual plan in mind, what they did after every trial. And everyone, regardless of what was said or done, would soon find a note being slipped under their door.]
[Name],
There's gonna be food in the dining hall, in case anyone's got an appetite for it.
I know some might want to be alone after that mess of an investigation, but if you don't then the offer's as open as it's always been.
I'd say sticking together might still be safer then not.
-R E.O. Speedwagon
[And yes, folks that arrive in the dining hall will find a nice spread of sandwiches, soup, and what leftovers Speedwagon could scrounge out of the fridge. Speedwagon isn't the best cook in the group, but there's definitely stuff here that's good enough to eat.
...Sigrun's 'masterpiece' was, thankfully, left out of this. Keeping folks alive is the goal, after all.]

Today was an awful mess, to put it gently.
....but I'm glad nobody had to die.

I'm not one to talk about justice, but I know that what we normally do on Fridays isn't it. This is better.

[His hand moves up to touch his throat gingerly.]
...if only we had been able to do something like this sooner.
no subject
[He'd be happy to still have Caren, or Yato, or most of the others still around.
Mettaton goes without saying.]

I wouldn't mind having a look at the library in my family's castle right about now. There's probably some sort of ritual in one of them about sending stuck spirits off to whatever the next stage of life is.
We just have to get to them before the Kingmaker does.

[He brightens, just slightly.]
There might be. He's a smart guy, from the sound of it. It's worth a shot.

[...since apparently leader duties are starting to fall to him.]

I should check out the library, just in case. I doubt the Kingmaker would leave anything around, but we can't let any possibility go.

Would you like to come with me? Two eyes are probably better than one, especially since we're probably runnin' out of time.

I suppose it could also wait a day; I'm just not sure what to expect around here. The Kingmaker is bound to be pissed.
