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.

Like anyone would mind doing that. Look, you should get someone to watch over you. [If not Demyx then who could do it...] How about Wander? I bet he'll do it even if you don't ask.

[It's free protection, he doesn't understand why Naminé wouldn't want it]

[chainbroke]

But if it results in their getting hurt, I wouldn't want that.

[ There's not really a lot of fight in her voice. She's just... so tired, of people getting hurt. Of people getting hurt for her. ]

... If... anyone wants to, I can't stop them. I just... don't want to be the cause of anyone's pain anymore.

[arpeggiositar]

...you really worry too much sometimes.

[Welp, he gives up. Demyx shrugs]

You and Lea are pretty much crumbling under the pressure. I talked with him just a moment ago, that kid's scared. He's really afraid of causing someone's death.

[chainbroke]

[ Demyx... consider the way she's been-- well, no, he wouldn't know that.

It's fine. ]

He is...? But, I don't believe he'd kill anyone.

[arpeggiositar]

I know, I don't think he'd kill anyone, but we were just talking and he just... [Demyx gestures with uncertainty] ...he thinks doing anything's going to end in someone being killed.

And then he ate an orange and got better. Maybe he just was hungry.

[chainbroke]

He changed, that quickly?

[ She looks so unsure. ]

Maybe someone should check on him often...

[arpeggiositar]

You gonna do it? I mean, if we're talking about kind approaches and all you're better at that than me, you see what I mean?

['You do it so I don't have to']

[chainbroke]

I can try. [ ... ] I hope he won't mind.

[arpeggiositar]

Oh, he won't mind. When you do, bring him more oranges, just in case.

[He dares to say that with a smirk]

[chainbroke]

I'll... make sure to do that.

[ Demyx, you're so confusing?? First you try to play nice, then this. What the heck, man! ]
