Didn't we just do this last week?

[perpend]

[It's starting to look like this is going to be a weekly occurrence.

Just like last week, Cabanela waits a while before he makes his rounds, writing everyone quick notes and sliding them under each occupied door.]

Stay strong.
If you don't want to be alone tonight, meet in the dining hall.
-Cabanela

[Like last week, Cabanela hasn't bothered to provide anyone with food-- that would just be... rude right now, he thinks. Upon first entering, you'll notice that there are now four lit candles in the center of one of the tables.

Feel free to leave mementos for the dead; it's probably appreciated.]

Comments

[perpend]

[Cabanela isn't writing anything himself, but he eventually makes his way over to Rakka just the same.]

Hey, there, Rakka. You writing to someone?

[charcoalfeather]

[She's... already gotten a few words down, though it seems like she's hit a roadblock in terms of what exactly to say. What can one do when they want to thank someone they barely know, that helped them through a difficult time in their life?

One that they can't even remember?]

Hmm... Oh, inspector! [Rakka perks up, just a little, giving a tired smile.]

Mm hmm. I actually remembered something a few days ago, so I'm trying to write a letter for someone in those memories.

[perpend]

Did you? That's good to hear!

[Especially for someone like Rakka, who started out not remembering anything.]

I hope that person gets it-- it's hard to tell, with the Conductor.

[charcoalfeather]

[For someone like Rakka, it's probably the best thing to happen to her here.]

The Conductor has to send it! I... [Hmm. aha!] I'll make them promise to do it. If they could get us here, it's probably easy to get something out.

[perpend]

It's worth a shot, isn't it? I'm sure if you ask nicely enough, he'll do what he can.

[Maybe, anyway. Being polite seems to get pretty far with the Conductor.]

[charcoalfeather]

It is worth a shot! [She can concur!]

...Oh, that's right! Inspector, did you ever ask the Conductor about the building?

[perpend]

I did, yes!

[Oh boy, information!]

He told me the building is as ooold as it looks!

[charcoalfeather]

[Her eyes widen a bit.] Really? well, it does look really old! I guess if it was, then he didn't have any reason to lie about it then.

[She casts a glance at the fall and its fading colors.]

I wonder... why it's so old.

[perpend]

[Why no one bothered to update it, who knows.]

Maybe it reeeally was a school a long time ago. The building must have been chosen for this.... whatever this is tying to be, because of its age.

[charcoalfeather]

[At least go for more of a floral print you hipsters.]

A school...? Huh. Now that you mention it, I think I remember something like that.

[perpend]

It woould explain the uniforms we've all been given.

But other than that, I don't actually have much of an idea!
