pick a god and pray

[garudynamic]

[Like the weeks before, once everyone has wandered off their separate ways, notes are posted to each room that still has a warm body in it. Only this time the writing is much messier then any other notice]

None of us feel like celebrating, but I think Yato would approve if we don't spend the night hiding out because of him
There's warmed up food in the Game Room if you're hungry. Might be best to not be alone tonight.

-Yosuke

[And as promised there's leftovers in the Game Room; and eventually fresh stuff as Tarrlok gets to work in the kitchen. Yosuke is there, trying to set something up on one of the shelves, but otherwise you are left to your own devices]

I do what I can to respect 'em.

[It's a good thing the Kingmaker is just a bratty kid.]

[cherryblooded]

[Barely out of the egg.]

It's a good trait to have. Speaks highly of you.

[notjustawriter]

Thank you, Cherryblod. Means a lot.

It makes me wish I had gotten to know my great uncle better, but he died while doing his duty as a Schattenjäger.

[cherryblooded]

I'm sorry. It's always a shame to lose relatives when you're young, before you can really bond with them.

[It's pretty much always a shame to lose them anyway.]

[notjustawriter]

....Yeah. I didn't even know I had a great uncle until last year, shortly before I met him.

It's a real shame.

[cherryblooded]

Going out doing your duty isn't a bad way to die. There are worse, anyway.

[Like dying here.]

[notjustawriter]

[Gabriel nods carefully.]

He'd want me to save as many people here as possible.

[cherryblooded]

You will. I know you'll do your best, just like the rest of us.

...'As many as possible' just is getting less and less.

[notjustawriter]

...Yeah.

It's rather tragic.

[cherryblooded]

Nothing to be done. All we can do is move forward.
