One day we'll reach to emotions: unexplored, unprecedented
[ Sometime shortly after the trial small notes will be folded underneath the doors of everyone still alive, and also posted to the staircase leading up to the upper floors. Not many of you have probably seen Elda's penmanship yet unless you checked that Penmanship check a while back, but it's impossibly impeccable fancy cursive script, to match with her old timey appearance. ... She also writes a lot more proper than she talks. ]
[ she's being somewhat facetious about half the group, but the fact does remain that she got more offers than she expected, when she set out to do this. She had expected that Sayaka would help, and indeed both her and Alex provide cookies and curry for the tables. Elda herself sets up the tables, dotting one longer central one made of smaller ones in the ballroom for things to sit on. The bulk of the food's provided by Tarrlok of all people, Chinese food by any other name. Susan, bless her, provides alcohol. Hibki, once she was clean, decided to run backup on preparing the food.
And then perhaps fittingly, Aligula provided the decorations. Steamers line the room, and little cut outs hang around. At Elda's instruction, it's a mix of cats, snakes, and bats. The majority of them have little faces on them. And finally, as and afterthought more than anything else, Elda makes some tea.
... Said tea is black tea and is impossibly dark and bitter because she can't taste it, but maybe that's what you want on a night like this. Who knows. ]
To My Fellows,
The half of you who didn't assist me in this are cordially invited to a celebration of our continued living, and to the memories of those who aren't. We are a mismatched group,
but it has become increasingly clear that we are together in this. Do not allow yourself to be alone.
We will be congregating in the ballroom for the rest of the night.
Better chefs than I will be providing food.
Sincerely,
Elda Marker

But she's smiling as a result, even if it a little grim.
That's acceptable too, right? After that, well, she'll be carrying a goblet with blood in it (fuck her worries, no one seems to mind) and floating around the tables. She's mostly here to play at being proper host, but she might sometimes ask: ]
So what's that stuff even taste like?
[ But if you want her alone?
... She doesn't want to go back to her room, perhaps as usual. She'll be in the Foyer well, well past the night bell as people start to float out of the ballroom to sleep. She's there idly spinning a pen in her hand, watching the clock. She has a notepad open before her, but she doesn't seem to have settled on doing any one thing. ]

Sayaka will be hanging around the ballroom, wandering around and kind of just keeping an eye on people. Unlike most of the afterparties, she...doesn't seem to have anything to eat with her this time, and seems content to simply wander around and be available, to anyone who wants to chat. She's a little distant looking, but she's here for anyone.
Of course, she'll be going to the kitchen as well, seeming to just...be making something sweet, if the smell in the air is any indication. It's...nice, honestly. It takes a little time, but she seems to have made herself some dango--she'll gladly share them with anyone who asks, but these...these are primarily for her sake.
Though, she does seem fit to populate the bar once she's done, her treat beside her and what looks like a margarita. So much for that not becoming a habit, huh? There's little that seems to be able to drive her away from the bar, it seems, but it's...nice and quiet, really.
After that, she'll retire to Room 2, mostly to just...kind of stare out, again.]

If you got a request, I can try and cut something out for you~! Come on, come on, don't be shyyy!
[ For those attentive enough, her cheer's not quite the same as it normally is. Today's been sort of rough! But she's persevering, she's not gonna get made fun of tonight.
When she's done doing that in the ballroom, she's going to be disappearing for a little bit; she'll be back out later, in the billiards room. It might be a strange place to see her in, but the reason definitely becomes clear as soon as she starts taping up a cruddy drawing on one of the dart boards to practice her throwing skills on. Depending on when you catch her, it'll be one of several choices: Chitoge, Blue, Sigrun, Kimblee, Archer, or Terumi. "Aren't those people she kind of liked," you might ask. Yeah, they kind of are.
...Um, she's not super great at darts given her depth perception is sort of limited to one eye and she doesn't really do the throwing thing, so. Sorry. Please don't get hit by one. ]

...later in the night, he eventually heads back to the kitchen puts a plate together. it's not for him, because fuck it, he ate a fair amount taste testing, he doesn't need to sit down.]

Afterwards, he can be found in the ballroom, nibbling on some of the food that was made. He's eating very slowly, though, and he clearly has something on his mind.
Much later, when people trickle off to bed to sleep, Luca can be found in the library browsing for books. Well, a certain kind of book, at least. The title of the book he is currently holding, "108 romantic poems", might be a giveaway for what he is looking for.]

After that, she finally makes her way to the kitchen to help and later the dining room to eat. It looks like she's getting over the bad vibes the secrets on the wall give her because she doesn't look uncomfortable to be there anymore. She's happy and willing to chat anyone up and may seek out friends if they're looking a little lost and happen to come by the tables.
When everything starts to calm down, she'll take her plate of food and something to drink up to the sewing room. It's there she remains for the rest of the night, an occasionally thoughtful expression popping up on her face.]

Once she arrives in the ballroom, she samples some of the food and... well, as much of the tea as she can stomach. She seems amenable to conversation; in fact, she might strike up one with anyone who happens to be near her at any point during the night.]
...I do hope this week will be calmer than the last one.

Yo. How's everything?
[ Later on he can be found in the bar, just simply out of habit, and then further in the evening in room 18 to retire for the night, though he's staring up at the ceiling instead of sleeping. ]
