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).]

That's just what I mean--if they're still around, perhaps all hope isn't lost yet.

[Zero paused what he was doing in favor of thinking over this line of logic carefully.]

...Of course, there's the matter of bodies to address, but perhaps some world has the magic or technology to see to that.

[Lalli seems a bit concerned by that thought.]

The dead are dead. Trying to bring them back will only bring misfortune. But we can say goodbye to their souls before they pass on.
jibunwo: (feels like it might change the world)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-02-21 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
...Perhaps you're right.

[said lelouch 'no good coping mechanisms' lamperouge, like a liar.]

...but at the same time, there might be different rules in other worlds. Maybe there is something that can be done, as long as their souls are safe.

[He wants to Believe.]

I've come to realize that if nothing else, other worlds don't operate on anything resembling what I know as 'logic'.

[shard was a robot hedgehog and we're just rolling with that]

I believe it stands to reason that the impossible in one realm is simple in another.

Maybe. It would be nice if they could come back.

[He just only has half-a-plan currently.]

...the Captain is a man. We can beat him.
jibunwo: (i'm taking what's mine)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-02-21 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
Indeed we can; we need only survive long enough to reach him.

[personal profile] silentscout 2021-02-21 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
Mhmm.

...if I come to you later with a plan, can I trust you to help me?

[It's half-baked, but he's going to work on it.]
jibunwo: (look out to the future)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-02-21 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
You can. I have no intention to act on anything Jack comes up with, and my priority is on our real enemy.
silentscout: (03)

[personal profile] silentscout 2021-02-21 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods.]

Nothing he can offer will really help anyway. We have to take what we actually need.
jibunwo: (of who you want to be)

[personal profile] jibunwo 2021-02-21 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly. Plumeria was right; he won't act in our best interests, and anything he can offer is either bluffing or outright bait founded on half-truths.

[personal profile] silentscout 2021-02-21 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
Mhmm. We just need time to find a way to him.
