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.

[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).]

Hey. Um, Kim always said chocolate was good for chasing away sad feelings. [Not that? Kim ever visibly gets sad?] Ramona says ice cream's better, but I thought it might melt so I went with chocolate.

It probably would have melted before you arrived, yes. If you went with ice cream, I mean.
[Plumeria shifts a little awkwardly at the door, seeming...well, more confused than anything.]
...Thanks. You really didn't have to go out of your way for me like that.

...Friend...
[Well that's. Hm. Today's kind of a bad day to think about that for too long.]
...Well, thank you. I'm just...not very used to it. People going out of their way for me, I mean. But I do appreciate it.
