We're all in this together now, so let's not give in!

[hesperos]

[ What do y'all know! It's a party invitation that Yuri bothered to slip under everyone's doors or hand over to any passerbys. ]




[ He saw people liked glitter?? He probably threw some glitter over the sign with Angel's help, tbh and might have put in too much by accident. It's whatever.

There are a few decorations hanging around here. Before the whole murder went down he made some small crafted animals, so they're around on tables and everything (don't judge him).

He probably brought some smoothies and Cilan seems to have helped with cooking -- so Yuri's got a few of the usual snacks with sandwhiches or whatnot while the other brought some delicious onigiri!

Angel probably helped along with setting up some other decorations too -- it's half the reason things don't look like a mess?? Do not let Yuri set up things himself, okay. ]

["u tried to have a conversation, well done"]

...I'm okay.

[Which is sort of the problem, isn't it?]

What about you?

[passional]

I'm surprised I'm not in my room crying right now.

[ He expected a breakdown but it did not happen... He wonders if he's going numb to all this, or maybe the breakdown is just delayed or if the laughter at the end of the execution was a sign that he's starting to lose it. ]

[glaciates]

...I'm sorry. If you uh... if you want the room to yourself for awhile, I can tell Ferid to stay away.

[That's not very helpful and as usual, Isaac doesn't know what to say.]

[passional]

...I'd like my room for myself tonight. You guys are welcome back tomorrow.

[glaciates]

Yeah, that's fine. Though uh... if you need time after that, just let me know.

[passional]

I don't think that'll be necessary, but alright.

[ He stares at the ball sitting inside the shrine. ]

...I know I shouldn't blame myself for all this, but I really wish I hadn't gotten her treasure from the machine. Then she wouldn't have built this shrine for it.

[glaciates]

...And if she hadn't built the shrine, she wouldn't have been out here so late at night. I know.

[He folds his arms and for a moment he doesn't say anything. He's not sure there's anything he can say.]

But I don't think you can blame yourself for it. Maybe things would have played out in a similar way even if she didn't have the shrine. Maybe things would have gone differently but it would've been you instead of Mozu. There's no way to know for sure.

Blaming yourself for it is only going to weigh you down. In a place like this, regrets like that are just going to eat away at you.

[...Until you end up like AZ.]

I think the only thing that you can do now is try to move forward. Don't forget her, but keep trying to move. Don't let yourself get weighed down by everything happening here, just try to survive.

...She wouldn't want you to die, right?

[passional]

I know that, Isaac. But it's hard not to think about it-- I can't turn off my feelings.

[ Inigo's words are shaky and it honestly looks like he might start crying any second now. He keeps thinking back to that day when he went to the greenhouse and took out the sacred treasure thinking it would be a fine toy for Mightyena. ]

[glaciates]

...Yeah. I know. It'd be easier if you could, but...

[...]

Sorry. I wish I knew what to say. Do you uh... Do you want your space?

[PROBABLY SHOULD'VE ASKED THAT FIRST, OOPS]

[passional]

No, it's fine.

[ ... ]

Thank you, though. I appreciate your words, even if they don't do much for me right now.

[glaciates]

Yeah. Well, I uh... tried.

[orz]

But I'm here, if you want to talk or just... sit in silence.
