How could this happen? (afterparty)

[folkscallmewander]

[Wander has reeled back from this execution faster than Mulan's. This murder wasn't an accident, but it was still terrible all around, and it wouldn't have happened under normal circumstances. Knowing that Tadashi planned this out made it...a bit better, but it still made something awful eat at his stomach.

Speaking of which, everyone needed to eat something light today. Right after the trial, he heads to the kitchen and prepares twenty bowls of fruit salad and mixes together ingredients for chocolate chip cookies. While they're cooling off, he slides a note under everyone's rooms.]



There's fruit in the lounge, cookies coming soon. We should stick together, especially after this.

[She'll take a sip, just to hopefully please Namine, but... again, she can't taste much. At least it doesn't just taste like hot water?]

The tea seems fine, so I don't think you needed to.

[chainbroke]

Okay.

[ She pushes a bit of hair behind her ear. ]

Elsa, if... if there's anything I can do for you... I can try. I can't do very much, but if you ever need someone to talk to, a fr-- someone to be there... I can try my best.

[defyingfrigidity]

I appreciate the offer, and I do want to thank you, but... I don't think anything can be done. I'm sorry.

[chainbroke]

No, it's... it's okay. [ She shakes her head. ] I just... want you to know that the offer is there. And that... I'm here, too.

[defyingfrigidity]

... Thank you, Namine. I'll be sure to keep that in mind.

[It's hard to feel anything now, really, but there is a light pang of gratitude as she says this. She really does appreciate it, it's just... she's sure the effort coild be better used on the others.]

[chainbroke]

You're welcome, Elsa. You've... been very kind to me. It's the least I could do.
