EY. YO. WE GOT EFFIGIES IN THE DINING ROOM AND WE'RE GONNA BURN EM.
FOOD TOO. THE USUAL AND HOT COCOA. GOOD FOR THE SOUL. GET SOME. MAYBE TAKE IT BACK TO YOUR ROOM IF YOU HAVE TO. JUST GET SOME.
[Anyway, in the dining room, there's plenty of mugs set out, with a janky looking arrow sign pointing into the kitchen to where you can get your hot cocoa. On the table, there's Vichyssoise, a pot of green tea, and some booze. There's also a cookie tray on the floor away from the table on which to burn the Wordsmith and Kimbley effigies, which are handily placed near the food on the table.
...also if you go in the kitchen without shoes on just. Watch the northern corner. There's no kidneys, but there's a lot of broken plates there for some reason...]

He's not very inclined to answer the door at the moment, but he has left paper and a pen outside of his room, in case someone wants to talk. That's the most he's willing to deal with right now.]

[The paper and pen in front of Mischievous' room was obvious enough. He knelt before it and scribbled something down, then pushed it beneath the doorway.]
This how we're doing things? It's Varric. Can we talk?

He knocked at the door at first, almost, until he saw the paper and pen. At the very least, even though Mikazuki can be slow to the uptake, he can pick up cues...eventually.
He'll begin to write to the man. ]
Good evening, Silver. Would you like to have some tea?
If you would like for me to sneak you any snacks through the door too, let me know.

Dearest Silver,
Any apology I would make for assisting in the execution of your beloved would be insincere, and I refuse to allow either of us that recourse, though it might well be kinder to do so. Just as you would never do anything to endanger the life of your boy, I will never allow my family to live on without me, unknowing of my fate. I had promised to myself on the first week, and I will continue to uphold that promise: I will never hesitate to ensure that salvation.
And furthermore, though I dared not admit it until today, it would pain me to allow Hanyuu to pass a well. This perhaps also holds true for Lusamine, and yes- I wished to spare you as well. I confess, at this time, I have not examined by feelings very strongly. I doubt you now have the wherewithal to do so yourself either.
Know this, however: though you might be Lusamine's more and though Tethras and Hanyuu may well be kinder; that I, Elda Marker, forgive your humanity. And I thank you for allowing me to live another day in the face of a man I had so spited's mad revenge. Should you wish to speak with me, I am, until such time that this game ends, next door.
Sincerely,
Elda Marker.

I promised Gold that I'd look after you and share your burdens. I know you told me to be selfish. But it's what I want to do. This is me being selfish right now. I won't leave you alone. I'll be waiting, as long as it takes.
I will try my best to protect you. I swear it.

Silver-kun,
You listened to me when I shared my secret with you. Now, I'm going to return the favor: I'll be at the dining room tonight, but feel free to write back if you want to and leave it under my door in Room #3.
I know what you and Gold-kun did may have been seen as selfish by some, but you still saved all of us, regardless. I'm grateful for you both allowing us to live another day. I feel terrible for everything I did to the both of you in that trial. I hope you'll forgive me, but if not, I understand.
I hope to hear from you soon.

[He’s also had the time to get to his post-trial ritual, which he posts up on Gold’s profile in the foyer, as usual. Knowing as little as he did about the kid, it had been a struggle but… He hoped it might suffice.]
The kid sat at the bar, grinning and acting all together like his shit didn’t stink. A drink was in his hand and a bottle nearby, while three women nearby offered him matronly glowers. At his feet, his Pokemon sat, chewing idly at marshmallow food while he drank and smirked and enjoyed his time.
And then the door to the bar swung open. The kid turned, gaze expectant, and leapt from his chair. He’d been waiting, they’d all been waiting. Things were safe, their world had been saved thanks to their efforts, and now all that was left for him to find his friend.]
And here he was.
Gold threw himself at the man, knocking him to the floor. He reached out, snatching a hat from a tousled bunch of red hair and shoving it back onto his own head.
“Took you long enough.”
[With the story written, Varric headed to the gathering. He’d recite what he’d written at some point, and set up the effigies for Guzma or whoever to have a grand old time with, but for the most part he was quiet, off in the corner. So far he’d condemned billions to die and sentenced a child to death. He was terrified of what the next week would bring.]
[At one point though, he would rise, approaching Elda with a fresh new piece of paper. He’d sit down across from her, and hold it out.]
I couldn’t think of anything for Kimbley. You knew him better so… I figured you might be able to help. [He offered her a weak smile.] Your stories were… they were something.

...It takes a while for her to come out at all--probably closer to night, but she doesn't really want to go near anyone even still. She goes to the Dojo and sits off to the side with some paper. She doesn't really look like she's doing anything other than staring into space, though. For...better, or for worse.
Today has been a hideous day.]

You'll find him in the kitchen for a good amount of the evening. He received one of those large tea bags from the vending machine that's probably Alani's, so he's in here trying to make Tea of Mourning. It's uh... not going too well. But an attempt is being made and he'll keep at it until he can manage a single cup of this stupid tea. It's super bitter and he hates it.
He'll only stop in to the dining room for a moment and that's only to get some food before he heads back to his room. You're welcome to catch him as he's getting food or knock on his door; he'll probably answer.
But really, he's not feeling very talkative tonight. There are a few people he'll seek out, but otherwise he just seems... listless as opposed to his usual obnoxiousness.]

He's mostly isolated, however, not entirely willing to intermingle with the party. But he'll gladly speak if approached. Eventually, he slips off to the gym, mostly intent on gaining some form of catharsis. Feel free to join him.]

But it’s clear she’s not making this out of kindness – partially yes, but mostly it’s her escape right now. She’s not the time to sit alone and cry, she’s the kind that would try to do anything to forget. It just happens that her gesture may come off as kindness. This week, that is definitely not the case.
She’ll be in the dining hall for a bit just to be around people, and eat her own food, and drink the tea and hot chocolate as she finishes her cups.
After a bit, she resigns back to the kitchen and this time seems to have ingredients out for a dessert. Probably a cake. She just wants to do something and keep active and a book won’t help right now. A book means she has a chance of being lost in her thoughts – and no happy book could help. So she needs to stay busy… It’s a shame she’s not the type to go to the gym or the dojo and let out angry energy, but she’s not.
She just wants her escape.]

However, while she does stay in here to watch the effigies burn, she's so... Tired. In fact, he's tired enough that she starts looking somewhat longingly at everyone's necks even if none of them smell particularly appetizing. This holding pattern continues until they've burned several effigies, at which point she goes to seek out a choice person or two. She's making no effort to be unsociable even despite the circumstances.
She won't be in her room by the end of the night. ]

Okay. So. He's gonna hang out with the hot cocoa when he's around, though he's making an attempt to... track people down and shove hot cocoa at them if they haven't been around, with his Masquerain and Ariados behind him. ...they're not. the best support animals. but.]

...This week is not an exception. However, she...emerges, a bit sooner than usual.
I promise.
She held that boy's burned hands before he died. She will not desecrate his memory.
So, she goes to the dining room, for sweets, and will sit quietly for awhile. Other than that, she's seeking people out. Looking for those who look alone or isolated, offering hot cocoa. She...doesn't look great. That hasn't changed. Hell, she hasn't smiled all week. But though her face is red and streaked with tears and her eyes water, she is firm and determined. For right now, she will try to be strong.
...In the kitchen she's a bit less so, as she...starts to make some cream puffs and just starts to sob as she does so. They're going to taste far too salty, sorry Gold.]

Elda's own actions are sort of a perverse mirror of Hanyuu's. The vampire's sentimentality is far, far lesser, but she ends her night, what she can handle of it, finding the other woman and accosting her by way of putting a hand on her shoulder. ]

After that, he can be found in his room, writing something. The booze is actually for Mugetsu, who has had half of the bottle and is currently sleeping on Watanuki's bed. His door is open, by the way, so anyone can stop in if they're looking for him. He's not opposed to talking, he just doesn't want to go out at the moment.]
