It's time for an after party!

[About an hour after the trial and subsequent execution, Cabanela makes a decision.

They need to do something, keep the morale up, however little it may be.

Under each occupied room door people will find the following note written:


In difficult times such as this, it is important to carry on.
Don't give into despair; we must preservere.
If you don't want to be alone this evening, meet me in the dining hall.
-Cabanela


[Upon entering the dinning hall, you will find Cabanela sitting at one of the tables; he has lit two candles that are placed at the center of the table, but there's nothing else to note.

You'll have to supply your own food, since he doesn't have much of an appetite.]

I know I am. I know him better than most people in Albion.

[...Knew...]

I wish I could tell you that it won't. But unfortunately we have no way to know right now. I do not wish to lie to you, Rakka. We may have to go through something like that again.

[He hopes we won't.]

...I guess I knew you were going to say that.

[Or, rather something to that effect. Bluuuuh.]

It's so hard. I don't know a lot of you very well, but I can't remember anything else. And, I think a bunch of you are my friends.

[Ahh... that's very sweet...]

Your situation is very different than ours. We have memories of where we're from, who we were, and of the people we knew. Some among us might find that enough of a motivation to attempt to play this game so they can return home.

It is horrible that anyone would consider such a thing, but unfortunately it cannot be dismissed. I sincerely hope we do not need to go through anything like this again, but it is not a possibility we can ignore.

[...]

Try to keep your head up. The only thing we can do now is... move forward.

[No matter how painful that is.]

[...It's a sad thought that occurs to her in that moment. If she ever choose to murder someone, would that mean all of her memories would return to her? Would she ever have the willpower to attempt such a thing?

No. No, no, no, no. Definitely not.

She frowns, shaking a thought out of her mind, though it might look like something else to Logan.

I, uh, I will. I'll try. I promise.

...Is something wrong?

[You seem a little distracted...]
charcoalfeather: (I don't understand)

[personal profile] charcoalfeather 2015-11-13 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Umm, I'm okay. Please, don't worry about it.

[Rakka's not the best at covering up her thoughts, but to heck with it. Maybe her exhaustion at the day's events would cover for that.]

I just... want this day to be over.
decrees: (CONCERN ♛ was that another evil decision)

[personal profile] decrees 2015-11-13 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, he doesn't really blame her...]

As do I. I want nothing more than to forget this ever happened.

[...Maybe that was sort of insensitive, saying that to the amnesiac...]

My apologies. I... am not myself today.
charcoalfeather: (Is that heaven)

[personal profile] charcoalfeather 2015-11-13 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[IT'S A LITTLE RUDE, KING DUDE.]

...I don't know if I want to remember this or not. I mean, if I don't, then that else do I have?

[Remembering nothing, or remembering the death of a nice person? Neither sounded very appealing at the moment.]

It's... it's okay. I'm not mad or anything...

[SORRY, HIS EMPATHY IS KIND OF SHOT TO HELL TODAY...]

Ah, that's... I can understand why you would want to remember it. That was out of line, I should not have said that.

[He shakes his head.]
charcoalfeather: (I don't understand)

[personal profile] charcoalfeather 2015-11-14 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
[She sighs. Sure has been A Day.]

No, it's alright. [Kind of isn't, but.]

..... [Rakka lets out a yawn.]

...You should return to your room and get some sleep, Rakka.

[No one wants to know what "taking responsibility" for sleeping outside the dorms will involve.]
charcoalfeather: (Is that heaven)

[personal profile] charcoalfeather 2015-11-14 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
H-huh? But, I... [yaaaawn.] I don't really feel like sleeping.
decrees: (EXPLAIN ♛ the ends justify the means)

[personal profile] decrees 2015-11-14 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
If you fall asleep out here, that will be breaking a rule.

[Because the Conductor is dumb.]

Keep that in mind.
charcoalfeather: (I don't understand)

[personal profile] charcoalfeather 2015-11-14 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[The conductor is such a dumb. The Dumbductor. That's what Rakka should call him. Hmmph!]

I will. I promise. [Still, something bugs her, but she won't let on to that.]

I think I'll head to my room then.
decrees: (HEADTILT ♛ likes: executions??)

[personal profile] decrees 2015-11-15 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
Of course. Hopefully you will be able to get some sleep.

[Without horrifying nightmares...]
charcoalfeather: (My wings?)

[personal profile] charcoalfeather 2015-11-15 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Mhmm. [she tries to give him a smile that isn't emotionally drained, and she moves away towards the hall.]

....Goodnight.

[Probably not.]
