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.]

[Well, Hibiki did say she'd talk to Rakka about Hamuzou, but now she kind of doesn't want to interrupt her...

Ah, well, it's just a letter.]

How are ya holding up, Rakka?

[She'll take a seat right next to her. She's a bit curious about the letter, but that can wait until after she's said hi properly.]

[charcoalfeather]

[She did say that! Which is part of the reason Rakka had come down to the after party. The latter was a last minute thought, something to focus on rather then... everything else.

Which was a lot to focus on.]

Huh? Oh, Hibiki... [hey there.]

...I-I'm okay. I guess. Maybe.

[nankurunaisa]

I don't think any of us are okay, but at least we can say we're tryin' to be. That's good enough, right?

[Undyne and Byakuren. Two girls. On some level, she'd thought the girls were all tight, that there wasn't anything to worry about there, but...

...turns out they chose to fight. That is some intense shit right there.]

Are you writin' a letter, too? It's...not to the Conductor, is it?

[charcoalfeather]

Right... [Of everyone, she never expected anything like this to happen to Byakuren. She was always so... quiet, and non-threatening. Who knew that she had it in her to fight like that...]

Umm, yeah. Actually, I'm writing it to a person I saw in my memories. It's a girl who has wings like me.

[nankurunaisa]

A girl from your memories...wait, I don't get it. The way you say it, it sounds like you don't really know her.

[Is she getting that wrong?]

[charcoalfeather]

Well, umm.... I can't remember anything about myself - not even my real name. But, I don't think I've ever met this girl before from anywhere I've been. I can almost feel it.

[So Hibiki is... not wrong??]

... But I do know her name, it's Reki! And she helped me at one point.

[nankurunaisa]

No way...you remember that little?! I had no idea!

[It's impossible to mask her surprise. How is that...this is amnesia, right? Real amnesia.]

I'm so sorry! If I'd known, I'd...I'd have been more sensitive! I haven't even done anythin' to help ya, have I?!

[charcoalfeather]

Umm, no? [#honestRakka]

It's alright, Hibiki! I never told you about it anyways...

[...Truthfully, she figured it was common knowledge by now.]

And, I don't think you've done anything bad?

[nankurunaisa]

I still wish I could've helped you or somethin'! To make it up to ya, I'm...I'm gonna make you a really nice dessert next week, I promise!

[That's the best she can offer, she really does feel guilty for not knowing sooner.]

[charcoalfeather]

A... a desert? You mean it?

[This... this wasn't expected. Not that she doesn't love the fudge out of desert.]

You don't really have to do something so nice.
