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.]

[It comes so easily to him. It's almost like this is a thing he does on a regular basis.]

Then that would mean he's been to the crime scene himself. [And no one noticed? Bluh. There were the makings of a headache in the process here.

He sighs.] That's an unfortunate place to have something so fragile, if you ask me. Do you think we found all the pieces?

[captainobnoxious]

Couldn't say, I wasn't the one picking them up. I wanted to so I could toss it at our stupidly vain robot but, well, now it seems that would've been a total mistake anyway, so it's pretty good that I just took the hammer from the scene.

[... and then left it in her podium. is it still there, maybe?]

[isafraid]

[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]

'Cause it was pretty and he likes pretty things.

[... Yes.]

[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.

[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.
