(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.]

Press X to Doubt.]
Thank you.
[And she'll watch quietly for a little bit, head tilted.]
...How exactly is this made? I understand if that is a silly question, but it looks nothing like the music and dancing this box usually displays. That has pictures of real people, but this does not look real.

Oh, you know a picture book? It's basically like hundreds of pictures one right after another. Every picture is a little bit different and when you put them together it looks like the characters are moving.

[That actually sounds pretty amazing!]

[Scott draws a really simple flipbook of a bouncing dot in the corner of the notebook he has open then turns to Flayn.]
See, like this. The pages go by so fast you can't see the individual things I drew.
[He flips through the notebook, and the dot bounces up and down.]

So wide-eyed and amazed by this very simple trick.]
And those pictures in the box are more complicated than the dot! It must take someone very skilled to create such a thing!
