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.]

Wow. That is tough.

[Yeah, he is not sure what to reply to that]

I would have never guessed you fought in a civil war.

I like to hope I won't have to fight like that again for a long time.

Don't be afraid to get some help, now.

[ Remember how she'd said she'd try not to worry? She's worrying even more now. ]

That's very kind of you. [ ... ] How are you holding up?

It is good to know he met somebody with the same attitude than him. Zagi-san was a good guy.

[In the one time Mouri talked with him, at least]

I think I talked to him only once? He was prepared to deal with anything, he told me that sitting around to complain would lead nowhere.

I hadn't expected that from him. I thought it was admirable.
cherryblooded: (calm / wait what)

Can't say I'm at my best, but I'm alright.

[Which is pretty good, considering he'd been right there suggesting the cutting thing along with her.]

Rose-hip tea, cinnammon, something else...?
sleepingkogoro: (think)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-03-05 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I am fine. It is just that this is too much to deal with in a few hours.

[Give him a day or two, Mouri will be back to normal. At least for now he will just be introspective for a while]

I was never prepared for sending people to executions. It's the type of thing that never happens in a normal life, at least where I'm from.

I guess...

But hey, are you holding up okay?

[personal profile] prismbloom 2016-03-05 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
If you need to talk... I'm here.

Cinnamon, please.

Just fine.

...Well, maybe not just fine, but well enough that I can spend my time worrying about the rest of you instead.

[It's not that Mettaton is deliberately intending to be in the kitchen so much as he just...ends up there; he can't really stay still for too long, it seems, and the sound of the running water is what draws him in here.

He isn't too sure what to do with Yosuke, admittedly, especially after the...that; he'll try for now, though, and if the guy wants to be alone he'll leave him alone.]


...How are you holding up, sweetheart?
cherryblooded: (calm / wait what)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's not really going to address that first part...]

One moment.

[He's off to the kitchen, and back with a cup of cinnamon tea as soon as is shrimply possible.]

Here you are. Good for nerves.

Better to not to fight in a war ever again. Once is enough, I'd think.

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I won't. Mister Tarrlok was a big help, really. I'm happy he helped put this whole thing together...and it was his idea to have it in here, too.
cherryblooded: (calm / say what)

When you're long-lived, 'forever' is a very, very long time.

[ She takes it, sipping at it. ]

Thank you. It's perfect.

About as okay as I can be, after something like that. ...I'm a little worried about you, though, to be honest.

I'm happy you showed up.
cherryblooded: (dark / unsure)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
For the best. Doubt anyone wants to return to the dining hall so soon.
sleepingkogoro: (think)

[personal profile] sleepingkogoro 2016-03-05 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Need to let off steam?

[Excuse Mouri for coming and being concerned for you, please]

Oh, I'm fine, sweetheart, you don't have to worry about me! Besides, it's like you said - Zagi went out the way he would have wanted to, and they both agreed to what they did. So it's not like I can see anything to be sad about.

[...They're kind of a pair of winners, aren't they.]
cherryblooded: (smile / talking)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Good to know. I pride myself on excellent tea.
happysweets: (pic#9226737)

[personal profile] happysweets 2016-03-05 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, for sure. ...Eating there tomorrow might be tough. We should probably stick to the kitchen.
cherryblooded: (smile / sigh)

[personal profile] cherryblooded 2016-03-05 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Hopefully it'll fit all of us, or else we don't decide to all eat breakfast at once.

[It is a bit smaller than a dining room...]
prismbloom: (big race)

[personal profile] prismbloom 2016-03-05 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Worried about me?

[ Someone has to, since Aqua doesn't do nearly enough of that. ]

I wouldn't want Tarrlok's and your hard work to go to waste.
