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. ]

[This is literally the perfect explanation for him to understand it, thank you.]

That's incredible! If that was possible then I've no doubt that every single Dark Mage and Sorcerer in Plegia would have the runes carved all over their bodies as well! Most of them already have tattoos anyway.

[fuckin' grimleal, man]

It's amazing that you have access to a power like that! I'm guessing it doesn't work here, though. Perhaps once we find our captor we can figure out how to get it working again!

...Yeah, it hasn't been working. I have no idea how or why, though; it shouldn't be something that I can just lose access to.

[plegia]

Sounds dreadful. I suppose the only answers we'll get are from the Wordsmith.

[alchemicals]

I guess so.

Not like I've talked to him yet; I don't want to give him the satisfaction.

[plegia]

Same here. I'm not missing any powers, but I am missing my sword. I'd like to know where it went and I do have some other questions for him, but as you said, I don't want to give him the satisfaction.

[alchemicals]

I don't have a lot of personal things, so I don't think I'm missing anything there. But I'm not about to go begging him for something like answers, either.

[plegia]

Precisely. I'm sure he's enjoying having power over us and there's no need to feed into that.
