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.

["Old buddies"? She pauses as she hears this. Wander had never told her about having other partners before, although she supposed she shouldn't be surprised. She imagined Wander didn't do well if he traveled alone for too long.

But that comment resonated with her. She never really thought herself as anyone really special, at least before she met Wander, and it really meant the galaxy to her that Wander thinks so highly of her.

Wander's only real indication that she picks up on any of this is how she stiffens very slightly as she thinks this over, but it soon relaxes.]

I'm sure a lot of them had a better temper than me, at least.

[Might as well defuse any potential awkwardness with humorous self deprecation at least.]

I dunno, I'm not sure i heard you the ten million times you told me.

[She ruffles his hair playfully.]

I love ya too, bud.
