it is a funeral.

[Well. That was certainly something.

Emotions are clearly high, so for once, Data steps out of his helper role and takes on the brunt of organizing the after-trial gathering. He's seen enough of them by now to know what's what. He's also seen more than enough in this particular trial to decide that the bar, while possibly being the most logical location, may be distressing to some! So instead, we're gonna do something different. Data will deliver invitations, that sort of look like a computer printed them, to each of the rooms:]



Please come to the ice cream parlor if you would like company at this time.

- Data


[Everybody likes ice cream!

There are no decorations, but there are some snack selections from the buffet and the cafe, depending on what you want, and a tray or two of mixed drinks courtesy of Jimmy Buffett. Data and Parker are both here. If you're sad, you may pet Parker (probably). If you're too depressed to make your own fancy sundae, Data will do it for you (definitely).]

[Jasper finds himself just kind of wandering aimlessly around the ship with the big thing of vodka slowly dwindling as he tries desperately to find somewhere to be alone and melt the fuck down. It does not make him feel better. Instead, it makes him feel sick as hell, and he eventually wanders into the first aid room where he proceeds to just kind of barf into. a garbage can in there.

...if he passed out he'd probably be happier but no he's left to stumble up to the men's shower where he'll just kind of turn on the shower and lean against the wall and slide... down... fully clothed...

...

Right. He forgot. He figured it'd happen eventually, but he forgot. So once he's sobered up enough to be able to... function, he guesses... kind of... he heads to his room, still kind of dripping wet, gets the party popper from the first day, heads up to the lower deck, and pops it off the side of the ship, after which he stares kind of vacantly out into the distance.]

[Oh hey, Jasper's out here aaaaand he seems to be having a great time. Yeager approaches and leans on the railing nearby, looking out at sea.]

I'm sorry for your loss. Is that the right thing to say in a situation like this?

[It's not a joke, it's a genuine question. He knows enough to know that Sylvando and Jasper weren't exactly friends, after all.]
guffawsungraciously: jasper looking off to the right (i could be on vacation right now.)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2021-02-21 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
I have no idea.

[It's said after a long enough time that Yeager might think he's being ignored, and his voice is kind of hoarse. From. You know. Unpleasantness.]

...

We were enemies before. I have no idea why he has been so decent to me here, aside from him simply being that sort of person.

[personal profile] scythegun 2021-02-21 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
[It's okay, he waits. He's not particularly interested in going back to his room right now anyway, so if Jasper wants to just remain here in silence, he's not opposed. You know, assuming Yeager will actually keep quiet, but he's managing for the time being!!

And then Jasper does speak up, and he inclines his head a bit as he considers it.]


I can't imagine what I'd do if I was here with any of those plucky orphans. I doubt it would have gone the same way, but I think I can sort of understand.

[Yuri Lowell likely wouldn't have played nice with him at all, and the rest? Well, he pissed off their dog, clearly they weren't going to be fond of him either. Maybe he could get along with Raven for five minutes, but that's deeply uncomfortable so he doesn't want to think about it.]

He was certainly a unique individual... I don't think anyone else could quite come close.

I doubt it would be the same with most of the people I was dealing with. He really was just that sort of person, I think. But perhaps...

[...

Sigh. He leans a little harder on the rail.]


Well. I suppose it would not be surprising if they treated me better than the people I expected to be on my side. That is how it always ends up being.

[what's the point in hiding it anymore. it's not like it's going to protect him either way, he imagines.]

I am certain that you recall my description of the monsters in my world.

[Filbo was looking for Decus. Finding Jasper in the shower room wasn't part of his plan. He had no idea Jasper would be...taking things like this? Oh, right, Sylvando and him were...from the same place? Maybe? Losing the one person who knew about things just like you did must be awful.

......

...he can't turn his back on Jasper]


...you're gonna get a cold if you stay there like that, roomie.

[And getting sick is one of the last things anyone needs around here]
guffawsungraciously: a bit of a downcast look (and you said you always had my back)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2021-02-21 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
The water is warm, so I will be fine.

[he doesn't look fine. he looks kind of like a drowned rat.

don't point that out to him he'll be mad.]
ahelpingpaw: (It was!)

[personal profile] ahelpingpaw 2021-02-21 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
That doesn't convince me of anything.

[If you get a cold Filbo isn't going to watch over you until you get better--okay, no, he'll check on you once in a while, that's for certain]

You should get up. I know these are tough times, but staying there isn't gonna make you feel better. It just's gonna make you feel empty until you decide you're soaked enough.

...

...

I suppose that makes sense. I will feel the same regardless, but at least I will not be wet.

[He stands up a little shakily and goes to turn the water off.]
ahelpingpaw: (Cuz -- you know --)

[personal profile] ahelpingpaw 2021-02-22 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Well that's a step forward. Now if only I knew what's the next step...

[It sucks emotions are so difficult to deal with, good grief]

...you...wanna...vent a little?

[Filbo's considering offering going to the bar to have a drink, pffft]
