(too late) you're at the party
[Well, it's safe to say that trial fucking sucked. Therefore, some sort of afterparty is in order. Constantine is admittedly not good at throwing parties without some sort of liquor or other drug involved, but that's where Data and Sylvando guide him.
First order of business--invites. Upon returning to your rooms, crumpled pieces of paper have been taped to the doors. Written in poor handwriting is the following:]
meet at the lounge
bring whatever you want
[Simple, but effective. The lounge itself has been livened up a bit with Sylvando's help. Some nicely patterned fabric has been draped around on the tables to liven up the place a little, and snacks from the café and vending machines have been placed out for people to peruse.
A few supplies from the first aid room have been gathered, as well, for those who may need it. But perhaps the help is unnecessary, as tomorrow will likely bring another New Years Eve. And with it, another week of despair and frustration.
But for now, they can forget about that and pretend that all that matters is the present.]

[It's rare for Filbo to show a face of such profound bemusement, but there it is]
...Jasper?
[Well at least Jasper isn't freaking out, he thinks. Laughter was not a reaction he expected, but it certainly is better than despairing or freaking out. He'll take it as...he doesn't even know how to take it]
no subject
[DEEP BREATHS.]
no subject
[It was a not a great time]
...it also is a long story. Nevermind. The point is that I don't wanna take any chances. It may seem like a bit too much since it's, you know, just a strawberry no matter how big it is? But I don't wanna put either you or me or anyone else in danger. Especially you since you're in this room too.
[Filbo can accept himself being in some danger, but Jasper is a different story. If anything happened to Jasper and Filbo could have done something about it he'd feel incredibly guilty about it]
no subject
[Which are also horrifying but he's buried everything deeply enough to be able to make jokes about it.]
But in any case, I will be certain to keep an eye on every strawberry I eat from here on out to make sure it has no... eyes of any sort. You have my word on that.
