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.

[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.

You do.

[It's something that'll have to be done sooner or later.]

I can be there with you if you want, or else I'll just be here. Whenever you need me. Whatever I can do for you.

I think... I have to do it on my own. Or well, as on my own as possible. I doubt Sigrun will trust me alone with him. I can't blame her.

[He doesn't, either.]

Alright. I believe in you, my dear - with a cooler head, you'll do alright.

[Finally, he pulls Yosuke toward him in a gentle hug.]

[God, he needs the hug, and he clings back]

Sorry for snotting on your bed.

[Gently petting his hair again.]

It's nothing to worry over. Just glad you let it all out.
garudynamic: (Glasses removing)

I'll probably need to again after tonight. Can I... crash in here for awhile?
cherryblooded: (smile / content)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-04-24 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
Take as long as you need. You're always welcome in my room.
garudynamic: (Flop)

[personal profile] garudynamic 2016-04-24 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
You... can go back out if you want. I mean, I could find a weapon in here if I looked I'm sure, but...

[He shrugs- he knows Cherry wouldn't think he needs to be on death watch. Either his own or someone else's. He's just too tired to fight anyone right now]
cherryblooded: (calm / forehead kiss)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-04-24 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
[The weapons are in the trunk and there's like eight of them even after giving all his butterfly knives to Yosuke. But no, he doesn't think that.]

Only because I need to ice my shoulder. I'll be back later, okay?

[He gives Yosuke a soft kiss on the forehead, before standing up.]

Got it. Thanks, Cherry.

[he tugs off his shoes finally, and curls up under the blanket]
