[Another week, another set of disasters. Hibiki’s head is still reeling from the lengthy ordeal that was Solf J. Kimblee. But it’s because of that exasperation that she’s able to turn her restlessness into something useful. It’s too late to set about making curry for everyone, so it’s time to make some easier dishes. A replication of Fern’s mac-and-cheese, somehow she’s whipped up some kind of donut to go with her animal-shaped rice balls. There’s coffee, tea...hopefully it’s enough? And if it’s not, Rin has provided some delicious Chinese food. And that always tastes better late at night, doesn’t it?

And for the adults (or the exasperated teenagers), Susan is carting down booze from the bar. Joy. Hibiki’s never written to the group en masse before, but she delivers a piece of paper to everyone while Rin and Susan finish up the preparations. Each paper has a drawing of an animal on it, too.]

Too much has happened today. Whether you want to get angry, cry, smile, laugh, or just be out of your room, you don’t have to do it alone. Rin and I have prepared food for everyone, and Susan’s brought the drinks downstairs so none of us have to go into the bar tonight.

Even if it’s just for a little while, won’t you think about joining us in the dining room tonight? Being together is just as important as working hard. And remember, nankurunaisa!

[Three more candles are lit today. Tabitha Smith. Sigrun Eide. Solf Kimblee. They’re all Cabanela’s doing. There aren't any decorations, but the food is spaced out so everyone should be able to grab something and munch if they need it. It’s not clear how many people will come, but a serious attempt was made this time.]

[Yeah, she won't break down again if he chooses to leave. A lot of her emotional turmoil is now under control since she was able to get most of it out. Instead she'll try drinking a little to hopefully calm her all the way down and sleep tonight.]

I'm just saying the truth...

[paralogical]

[ Is it the truth? Is it? ... actually, yeah. In his own way, he can be pretty kind. Not always, not if you annoy him, but if you wait around he might do something nice for you. Y'know, if he feels like it and if you're around him long enough.

He waves his hand dismissively. ]

Go get some sleep.

[firstaid]

I will.

[Well, she knows her Mikoto time is up so she won't force him to stay. He's done a lot for her just by listening and she's grateful for it.]

Thank you once again.

[As a reward(?) she attempts to give him a smile. It's forced, but not nearly as forced as before.]

[paralogical]

[ She just can't stop, can she? He'll let her have this one at least. He's leaving anyway and she might need a win. Some kind of win.

So. ]

... You're welcome.

[ And then he heads out of the room. ]
