it only hurts for a moment - you get used to it quickly

[swordsinternally]

[ After everything's said and done, Shirou's going to go ahead and set things up for today. It's the same as always; nothing has changed-- but he still wants to believe that there's something worth in doing this, so he'll at least go ahead and do that once he's given out notes (or told a person verbally, one on one) under their door, a small neat note stating: ]

For those who don't want to be alone today:

I know it's been a hard month. And I know it's probably going to get even more difficult from here. But I don't want anyone to give up just yet. If you'd like, there'll be food and drinks in the simulation room.

- E.

[ And for those who decide to make the trip to the simulation room, they'll find themselves walking into what seems to be a karaoke bar! Shirou's made it pretty spacious and there is, in fact, a table set up with some food for everyone to take - primarily burgers and ramen (hell, there's a bit of ramen burgers, too, the Biggest Cancer) - that he's made the decision to make, so feel free to take it, and he's willing to even get drinks for everyone, too.

This includes virtual drinks, as he actually has some experience working at a bar, even if it was more menial tasks and less bartending. But hey, there's a first time for everything, yeah?

And there's also the option to sing your heart out-- although that might not be the most appropriate, given the last execution, but he's. He's trying, anyway. ]

Haven't you been through a lot this week?

[preconstruction]

That's true.

[ connor nods. ]

I don't think about it as much when I'm doing police work.

[whatsmytalentagain]

Mmn.

Any updates on that robot bird you revived? I wasn't paying much attention but still.

[preconstruction]

She was just doing her job. She didn't deserve to be killed.

[whatsmytalentagain]

[Nod, nod. That's true.]

But what happened after you revived her?

[preconstruction]

She talked to me about Vivienne.

[whatsmytalentagain]

...

What did she say about Vivienne-san?

[preconstruction]

That she trusted me.

[ he sound sad again; he's definitely out of the police work zone now. ]

[whatsmytalentagain]

... Oh.

[That... That sure sounded like that guy's regretting something here.]

Connor-san, you sure you lost your feelings? You don't sound too happy there.

[preconstruction]

You misunderstood. I lost physical feeling, not emotion.

[whatsmytalentagain]

Ooooh. Whoops.

[Slowly writing this out...]

Sorry, you shoulda clarified. Glad it isn't worse than that.

[preconstruction]

Mm. That's one way to look at it.

[ thats sure not what his boyfriend thinks tho ]
