that's not what we usually mean by 'dance with death'

[cherryblooded]

[That certainly did happen. Cherryblod's not the type of person who will judge one person's value as being more than another's, so he can't say whether it was better or worse than the first week. It came as less of a shock, maybe, but even so...

It's not the kind of thing people usually want to go through alone.

So, after he spends some time in the kitchen preparing (with assistance from Bruce), he'll slip some personalized notes under everyone's doors.]

[Name],
If you'd prefer to spend this time alone, that's fine.
If you'd prefer not to, I've made some food and set it out in the dining hall.
Even if you're just hungry and would rather not talk, feel free to come take some.
But if you'd like the company, we're here for you.
-Cherryblod

[Those arriving in the dining hall will find an assortment of food - a fair number of sandwiches and other, actual meal-like options since most people missed a meal or two, but also a goodly number of desserts. There's tea, as well as coffee for those who favor it.]

That's not a concern, since they don't have opposable thumbs. [ ...that would be weird. ]

[ignorantly]

Maybe they'll grow thumbs. [ He's joking, of course. ]

[captainobnoxious]

Like for clothing?

[captainobnoxious]

Because you remind me of a sheep. Kitten still fits you more 'cause of your magic thing, but lamby's fine.

ten million years later i remember to press post comment

[capyper]

... Well, I am pretty multitalented! [ AT LEAST... he recovers fast... ] You're right, I'll let my ability speak for itself! I'm sure people will be impressed.

lmao same....

[penduli]

[ Phew. ]

You've already impressed me, and I'm a pretty tough customer. [ No he's not, but a little white lie isn't going to hurt anyone...! ] Everyone else'll be a cinch.

[penduli]

And a skeletal system. [ He's also joking, of course. ]

[penduli]

It's not magic, it's psychic ability, but what do cats have to do with it?

[goodforsomething]

Yeah, but for your hair. It's different stuff.

I think.

[cherryblooded]

I'll try not to get up and fuss over people until I'm done.

[captainobnoxious]

Cats can sense trolls and are the only mammals that're completely immune to the Illness. They're highly regarded across the known world. I've got several myself.

[If the Kingmaker doesn't clear out that shit before the next trial then that's his own darn fault.]

The robot? You mean the doll--Mettaton, then? Why would you ever want to toss some evidence at someone like that?

[captainobnoxious]

Weird. So what do you think his hair's like under that? Do you think he's a natural blond?

[captainobnoxious]

'Cause it was pretty and he likes pretty things.

[... Yes.]

[penduli]

[ oh no, poor puppies..... ] Why aren't any other animals immune?

[captainobnoxious]

Not a clue. They just aren't.

[isafraid]

[what...]

Don't tell me you were thinking of giving a lady's corpse to a bloke as a gift!

[captainobnoxious]

Alright then, I won't tell you.

Sorry for the delay!

[uro_cyon]

He's a great kid, his names Jackson. A bit too stubborn for his own good, but he gets that from our side of the family. [He may possibly be smiling a bit.]

[isafraid]

That's... [Kind of gross if you think about it too much.] I don't quit know what to say to that!

....In any case, at least it didn't actually happen.

[prismbloom]

I hope one day I can meet them. Mabel, especially, sounds absolutely darling.

[prismbloom]

I have to admit that I keep thinking about the what-ifs...

[ ... ]

You're right. No one here is to blame for what's happened.

[prismbloom]

He's asked you questions... even knowing what he does about us, and that information on our profiles?

[prismbloom]

I can ask him, if you're like me to--I'd like some other choices, myself.
