It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world

[hesperos]

[ So, Yuri's going to be going around, putting up slips of paper for everyone to see, because even with everything that was that trial, he is sure it could help. He doesn't know--it's worked from time to time before anyway and someone should do it. ]



[ Yuri, for once, is going to be making some food for the afterparty that isn't desserts. On his side of things, his food is generally going to be geared towards something more western-style and hearty. In essence, there is some things of curry with beef, chicken, and vegetables in them, take your pick. Sayaka and Kyrie also will be assisting with food, providing stuff that is likely to be geared towards something asian.

This whole set up, of course, is going to be done in the dining hall, since that's where it usually is. ]

Ah, no, it isn't that. Normally, being around people helps me recover, actually. It's more...

[She looks down, thinking of how to phrase this.]

I'm having difficulties clearing my head tonight, I suppose. But if you needed something, I would be glad to assist.

[...she can guess a few reasons why. Adelina's memory from earlier in the week, or just her role in today's events. She's the one who examined Susan, after all.

Rin folds her arms across her middle, rocking on her feet somewhat.]

It's not "need", so much as a thought. I was thinking about those candles, you see. [She turns her head, to look over at them. There's so many now.] Cabanela puts them out every week, and Susan... I'm not sure when she started doing it, but she'd draw portraits on them.

[All but Kirei's, anyways. Rin wasn't there last week to know a candle was set out for him, but Hibiki broke it. She ended up replacing it herself this past Monday, though near as she can tell no one saw that. The difference in art style is obvious, but she's hoping no one noticed.]

It was a really lovely tradition. I was thinking to myself just now... Maybe you'd like to carry it on? You draw so well.

[bloodbiter]

[She gives a glance towards the candles, taking in a small breath, then she pauses in thought.]

...I'm not sure I would do well with drawing them on the candles themselves. But - I could definitely draw them on paper, and display them close by.

[She gives a nod.]

I would love to, if that would be acceptable.

[heritrix]

The gesture on its own is fine, I think. [Rin nods with a smile, then seems to think of something else.] Though I plan to ask Elda to draw Susan's. Maybe that'll get her out of her room.

[Maybe she'd draw Aligula's too. It's... weird. She hasn't talked to Elda yet, so she has no idea how it'll go. She's just trying to think of something to shake her back to her normal self.]

[bloodbiter]

...I think she would appreciate having something to do.

[A small nod.]

Her title is Indomitable, after all. She is incredibly skilled at picking herself back up, but - I think she must want to feel as though she's doing something useful.

[heritrix]

[Rin tips her head.]

I think she's less concerned about that than I am, generally. Because it's been so terrible, today might be different, but Elda is an emotionally honest person. Good or bad, she feels everything with full force and without reservation... Which means there's probably times when she needs to recharge.
