bloodisthicker: because that would be the worst (did i break a nail)

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT? OUR TALES RIVAL JUST TURNED INTO A ZOMBIE!

[...so, uh, that was a thing that happened. Tarrlok was completely ready to do the politician thing and come up with a speech or something for most of whatever the hell that excuse for a trial was, but everything got all confusing, baffling, and horrifying and completely inexplicably, he can't find the words.

Maybe he just... needs a day. Tomorrow will probably be fine. For now, though, Misa volunteered to make brownies, and he was going to make a Northern Water Tribe comfort food specialty.

...even if they only had shortening and not actual animal fat and it'd been a while since he'd made it, but it tasted... alright? Definitely not as good as the stuff back home, but it was hard to get that good, anyway.

...there's also the matter of setting things up in a location other than the dining hall, because even though that's cleaned up, it still feels pretty tasteless to hold a wake literal feet from the place you found someone's bloody corpse.

So, a little later on in the day, a lovingly personalized note will be slid under everyone's doors:



And if the Survivors choose to head to the library, they'll find a... well, okay, it's a bunch of boxes from the storage room of comparable size stacked up on each other to kind of resemble a table. The dining hall ones don't even seem like they'd fit in the library, so Team Afterparty clearly had to improvise. One side is filled with plates, bowls, and spoons, and the other is filled with brownies, cookies, and a big bowl of berry aqutak. There are also chairs dotted throughout the room in a sort of vague circle --- close enough together that if people want to talk, they can, but far enough apart that it'd be easy to drag it off for some privacy.]

[There's not really much that's there to say. Yosuke knows his stance on what they did: it wasn't fair, but they had to.]

Can I pour you a cup?

A-ah! Yeah, you're right! I don't know what I was thinking, getting all dejected like this...it doesn't fit me at all.

We're just...going to have to try a little bit harder, is all!

[While Colress is more of a coffee drinker, in this situation something soothing sounds a heck of a lot better than something that'll just wire him up even more.]

I would appreciate that, Cherryblod. Whatever happens to be your tea of choice.

[He has...no experience with it...]
cherryblooded: (sweat / uh oh)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
...It is alright to let other people see that you're upset, though. Even for a model.

No one expects you to be happy all of the time.
garudynamic: (Drank)

[It doesn't take long to finish up, and when Cherryblod offers he wipes his hands off, nodding]

That sounds great, actually.
cherryblooded: (calm / thoughtful)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Rose-hip is what I have on hand, so I'll choose that. Give me just a moment.

[And he'll go to the kitchen, and in little bit come back with some tea.]

Here you are. Freshly made.

[...It's never good, when the normally strong-willed ones are getting down on themselves; Mettaton still doesn't exactly get along with Mouri, but...well, this is kind of depressing, honestly.]

Doing all right, Detective Mouri?
cherryblooded: (calm / thoughtful)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Usually helps me feel calmer.

[Cherryblod gets him one of the nicer teacups, from the vending machine, and pours him some rose-hip tea, which he passes over to him.]
ratingspoint: (CONTENT ♥ suck it nielsen i'm doing fine)

[personal profile] ratingspoint 2016-03-05 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, Mettaton may not be getting asked about it, but at the same time he's definitely going to notice Cherryblod getting tea and what have you for...pretty much everyone; he'll catch him eventually, when he's got a moment.]

I do hope someone's checked in on how you're doing as well.

[It's relatively light, but that doesn't mean he doesn't want to know, either.]
garudynamic: (Listening)

[personal profile] garudynamic 2016-03-05 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[He thanks him softly, taking a careful sip. He's never been a huge tea drinker, but the warmth and fragrance feel like they're filling up something cold inside]

Sorry about all the... drama. Earlier.

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I know that, but...at the same time, I know a lot of people are counting on me, too.

It's like with my fans back home. If I can keep smiling for them, then, they can keep smiling, too. That sort of deal.
cherryblooded: (smile / my my)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
You're the first. Thank you.

[It's not resentful or anything - Cherryblod's more used to this than most people, and is one of the ones naturally disposed to look after everyone else anyway. It's natural he'd be doing the fussing right now.]

Can't say I'm doing perfectly, but at the same time... I'm not as bad as most of us, it seems.
cherryblooded: (calm / wait what)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Doesn't that put too much strain on you?

[The life of a celebrity is a difficult one.]
cherryblooded: (calm / frown)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
You have nothing to be sorry about. It hardly counts as 'drama'.
ratingspoint: (ARROGANCE ♥ that's what she said)

[personal profile] ratingspoint 2016-03-05 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, don't mention it, sweetheart; just so long as someone has, right?

[...Moving on, though.]

A good amount of them do seem like they're not doing well, though; it's sad. It's good to know that you're all right, though.

[ To be honest, it had been all too tempting to stay in her room. She'd certainly returned there for a while, but it won't do to wallow. Funny... she feels like she's in the pits. Aqua hadn't imagined that it would be her suggestion, in the end, that led to Kamui's being executed.

The whole thing makes her queasy. The cutting thing, the realization that Kamui could, indeed, heal rapidly. Aqua's at least three shades paler than usual, and she's sort of standing off to the side, watching the others. She doesn't have any sort of food or drink because she's not sure if she could even stomach it.

Her guilt is practically palpable. ]

[That's so weird to hear. The not leaving bodies part. Very weird, but alright.]

So it was something new for you, huh. Hope it wasn't too shocking for your circuits.

[Even if he's up there with her about their feelings regarding murder and all. Monsters just... disappear... Sigrun clears her throat a little, just to move from her teasing.]

I'm glad the died the way he did, with the whole fair fight and all. It's something he'd definitely would've appreciated. [So this closure is good. It was nice knowing that Zagi died the way he wanted, basically. Fighting someone strong.] I thought that he'd just been attacked at first and went down swinging, so knowing that they both went at it equally really eased me and made me happy in a weird way.

[Sigrun only got to know Kamui a little, but boy was he fun to tease. And he gave Zagi a good death, how can she hate him for that? There's only appreciation.]

But how are you holding up, you bucket of bolts? Are you going to be alright?
garudynamic: (Unhappy)

[personal profile] garudynamic 2016-03-05 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Still, it didn't really help anything. It's strange... now I just feel happy that we're still alive. Is that weird?
cherryblooded: (calm / wait what)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't blame them for it. Most people only get dulled to this sort of thing with repeated exposure.

[The ones who don't need that to cope with it are either lucky or some sort of mad.]

...And you?
happysweets: (pic#10068741)

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Nonsense. ...Everything's gonna be fine. Those are magic words, right?
cherryblooded: (smile / sigh)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
That's a perfectly normal reaction to situations where you could have died, but didn't.
cherryblooded: (smile / relieved)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
If they work for you, then I'm glad.

M--er, Aqua...

[ Misa's still sort of swaddled up in a blanket, but, she still can't help but go up to her and give her a cookie. ]

You should at least try to eat something.

[ When did the roles reverse here? ]
happysweets: (pic#9226763)

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
They do.

[ They don't. ]

Misa-Misa's already trying to think of a way to bring everyone together again for next week...
prismbloom: (total eclipse)

[personal profile] prismbloom 2016-03-05 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She takes it, at least, and bites into it. ]

It's delicious, Misa.

How are you doing?
