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. ]

That's the spirit. Now it's just, you know...making sure everyone else feels that way.

[There are some she's sure don't, without naming names.]

[ravagers]

Well, I'm "Encouraging" for a reason, right? I'll try my best.

[officerhops]

If anyone could do it, Vanille, it would be you.

[ravagers]

You think so? I hope I don't disappoint you, 'cause then you might have to arrest me.

[ ... haha it's a funny joke and not at all how she feels ]

[officerhops]

[Vanille she's not sure she could arrest you even if you did something terrible, because she doesn't believe you're capable of that.]

I don't think that will be necessary. I only arrest people who actually deserve it.

Where would you even put someone you arrested, here, anyway? The storage room?
