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.]

Four of them. Each kingdom has its own academy.

If the Hunters and Huntresses in an area need help, the soldiers will come in, but as a general rule, no.

[forcegalactic]

That's mighty troublesome. If you got schools for them, it must be a huge danger, much like how the USSA got separate divisions for different types of treats, only you ain't a military, as Hunters and Huntresses are a different entity and thus not part of the government, I assume.

[icysemblance]

You're not wrong. The Grimm, with their ability to feed off the negative energy, are a huge danger.

[But she smiles a little.]

But no Hunter or Huntress is ever alone facing them. We work as partners, at minimum, or as teams, which is how we usually work. If I'm honest, working with a team is the biggest thing I've learned at Beacon.

[forcegalactic]

[His lips tighten.] That's somethin' I wouldn't want in my place.

[It's not entirely unbelievable, though. What if there was an alien species out there that fed on humans' emotional energy? What would they do, force themselves to be happy? That piano would have been useful in scenarios like that.]

Good that there's plenty of you workin' on this. I'm sure the people of your planet appreciate it.

[icysemblance]

I don't think anyone would. Not at all.

[She nods.]

We couldn't do it without their support. It means a lot.
