With your course of study officially completed, for better or worse, there isn't much left for you in the courtroom itself; the elevator will take you back down to the first floor, where you'll be left off – it won't take you any lower than that. But then again, perhaps it doesn't need to. Take some time to reorient yourself, to be grateful that you didn't die, to do whatever it is you need to do – however, if you return to the main part of the building, away from the dorms... Well. There's something waiting for you in the foyer.

[sjfsilfnsdl WHAT]

That's-- hey, wait a minute, can you all just slow down?! Tell me what the hell's goin' on and--

[... is that noir. that's noir, right? what's she doing here, why is she in pain--]

[matchbreaker]

The candies revive the dead! Now go feed them to someone!

[ She's going to shove one in...

Kira's mouth. ]

[uncouthhatcher]

[oh sweet jesus]

Trust me, they'd wanna stay dead if they tasted this!

[but fine fine let's see who isn't taken care of and deal with them, jeez]

[avoidcomplications]

[and that is how kira yoshikage came back to life possibly choking on a gummy worm thing.]

-?!

[matchbreaker]

[ And Elda...!

Slaps him across the face with all the force she can muster. Hope that doesn't break your jaw ] ]

That is for killing my dear friend! And I will leave it at that

[avoidcomplications]

[at least he is not choking]

[what he is is very confused and disoriented and still without his buff explosion cat]

What the hell just happened?!

[matchbreaker]

You're back from the dead!

Savor it, for now.

[avoidcomplications]

[i mean it beats the hell out of whatever dead man's questions' plot even is, tbh]

[sportadork]

[SKIDS TO A STOP he can't really... do more than one anyway...]

So she went all crazy and wanted us to trade our souls for yours...

[uncouthhatcher]

[... Oh. BLESS YOU, SPORTACUS, THE ONE HE CAN DEPEND ON.]

That... doesn't sound like her. I mean, she's kinda bad at bein' a people-person, but she's not like that.

[sportadork]

It could also be the incarnation of all the world's evil possessed her and was using her to trick us-- we are not sure yet. We are all just very glad you're all alive!

[uncouthhatcher]

I'm glad I'm alive too! But I'll figure it out, don't worry -- she's one of my dear friends.

[oyashiromama]

Then we will not leave her behind.

[sportadork]

I will trust your judgement on this one! [and then he's off bc you know who else needs rescuing judy]

[trustwellness]

[That is very much what appears to be Noir; she's still kneeling curled up on the ground, fingertips finding purchase in the fabric at her chest and trying very hard not to scream again.]

[uncouthhatcher]

[nnnmnnnnm WELL. NOIR IS HIS FRIEND, DAMMIT, and if she's in pain then he's going to crawl over to her for a moment and try taking one of her hands. she can squeeze the everloving shit out of it if she wants.]

Sorry, I can't stop 'em -- they're stubborn assholes, but I'm here for you, Hilda, so just hang on.

[trustwellness]

[She'll jerk away abruptly at that.]

Shut up, shut up, stay away from me -

[acherontiastyx]

Gold, I think she's possessed by all the evils in the world or something? Long story. Just.

...

Damn.

[...he just kind of looks at the shadowy bullshit on the walls.]

[uncouthhatcher]

[... Yeah.]

I'll deal with it! Even if she's possessed, I swore I wouldn't leave her alone!

[uncouthhatcher]

I'm not leaving you alone, I told you that!

[Just-- give him your hand, Noir-not!Noir!]

Or-- I told your body that? What the hell's going on?

[blackmass]

That didn't work out very well for you, did it? My condolences.

[trustwellness]

No better for you, and you know it.

[blackmass]

What do I care? I've nothing to lose anymore.

[oyashiromama]

[...]

You are technically both alive and dead, right?

[There's still...leftover gummy tails.]

What would happen if you ate this?

[modernmedicine]

[After she's gotten her legs under her...]

Kotomine-san, a patient of mine at home had an experience that left him very much in a mindset of needing to learn how to be alive again after very closely escaping death. He went to study with a monk who did him a world of good. The invitation is open, should you want it.
