[ What do you do after all that?
Well, you mourn. After...an hour or so, a note goes out, under everyone's doors- everyone's. ]
If you also don't want to be alone after the day we've had, come to the second floor of the dormitories. Food and drink will be provided. Alcohol will be confiscated immediately.
[ You'll find Rebecca's set up the common area with food, that she seems to keep supplying, every so often. It's kind of strange, though, she seems like the sort of person to harp on eating well? She definitely has, for some of you. Yet, the food seems a strange split. On one side, there's all kinds of fruits and vegetables and breads. Legumes, made maybe not the best, but it's still an effort. Vegetable soups, no meat in sight. Simple seafood. If you're familiar with Greek culture? Yeah. It looks a lot like something they'd describe in...a history book.
On the other side? God, it's all burgers and pizzas and...pineapples? Pineapple juice? What the heck, Rebecca? In any case, there's enough food to keep everyone fed, and it seems...Tess, oddly enough, keeps bringing batches of burgers from the kitchen?! What a team-up.
The Starbucks is open too, where it's a bit...quieter? Some tea and coffee set up, there.
For those who just want to cry, in peace. ]

...I d'nno. [ He mumbles his words, not exactly in a very talkative mood. Which, given everything that's happened, isn't really surprising. ]
no subject
It's still warm, so be careful.

[ When the cup of hot chocolate is placed in front of him, Osomatsu just stares at it. ]
[ It's an empty stare. ]

Have you ever been to Detroit?
no subject
...No. Why.

[ he's not telling him any of this for any reason, just to get him out of his head. just to talk about anything at all. ]
It's on a river and on the other side of the river is Canada. There's a park where you can sit and look over at it. It's a nice view, especially at night.

[ He hugs his crow plushie. The crow plushie he got from Hank. ]
...Sounds nice.
no subject
It is. It's a strange mix these days, of progress and past. Like Hank -- working with androids, but listening to records.
no subject
...Hm.
[ Osomatsu looks down at the table. ]

[ Osomatsu continues staring at the table. ]
...I'm sorry.
no subject
no subject
Mm.
...
I-I just... I can't believe...
[ God, everything's been extra horrible lately, huh? ]
no subject
I can't either.

To be honest, Oji-san was like a second father to me. He... He's helped me out in more ways than I can remember. And now he's...
...He's...
[ Osomatsu's hold on the crow plush grows stronger. ]
no subject
He really cared about you.
no subject
[ ...Osomatsu looks down at the crow plush in his arms. ]
...Yeah. He really did. [ It's brief, but you can hear his voice cracking. ]
no subject
no subject
I...
...No, I haven't. Not yet. [ His hope can only last for so long, though. But he'll do his best to keep clinging to what little of it remains. ]
[
But someday, all of that hope might be fully destroyed. And that scares him.]no subject
[ connor nods towards the hot chocolate. ]
It is cool enough to drink now.
no subject
...
[ He wordlessly picks up the cup and takes a sip. ]
[ ...Hey, this is actually pretty good hot cocoa. ]
...Thanks.
no subject
You're welcome.
