[ 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. ]

Maybe it started as that, sure! And maybe stories alone wouldn't have been enough to do anything. But when I told everyone not to get the candles involved, because it was part of a thing that actually summons spirits, nobody listened to me! In fact, a bunch of you started doing it! Probably because you wanted to piss me off, I bet!

So don't go blaming me for this! In fact, you were one of the ones messing with the candles, so this is YOUR fault!

...homeslice, Lusamine started it and you probably don't even register on her radar.

Anyway, why did you even tell it, then? Literally nobody knew about the candles thing until you started on about it.

Don't turn this back on me! And she's just as responsible as you are!

Yeah, but she didn't do it because she wanted to piss you off, right? I think I'm gonna blow your mind right now.

You're not the center of the universe. Not as many people care about what you think as you want them to.
