into each breaking wave
[ Well, that was — no pun intended — unfortunate. ...But in light of what they already saw happen the first two weeks, maybe it's not really that surprising, either; and maybe it's at least a little easier to recognize when something is going to be a lost cause, if not necessarily to accept it.
In spite of everything, this is the first time Decus has been in a halfway decent mood after a trial, which he can gather is... probably not the case for most of the rest. So he figures he can take on the party host duties for this week rather than push it onto someone who needs a break. Anyway, he wants to keep up this feeling-okay thing for as long as he can, and if he has too much downtime and starts to think about what happened a week ago today... he might end up a little less okay.
So, he brings some food down to the buffet from the cafes for a little variety (even though most of them probably aren't going to be too picky at this point), along with some tea and cocoa from Starbucks and a few harder options from the bar, and gets that all set up in as welcoming an arrangement as he can manage. And...
Well. Despite how he may come off sometimes, he actually is self-aware enough to realize that some of the others might not appreciate being reminded that he's still alive when three people who'd never had any intention of killing are dead. It doesn't really bother him, but he doesn't want to create unnecessary drama, either; so he doesn't put his name anywhere on the invitations he puts up around the place, just a simple:
food and drinks at the buffet
...Which is almost always the case, technically, this past week excluded, but hey.
And while he might come by to offer a drink or something to someone who looks like they need it, he's mostly going to hang back and let everyone do their thing. ]

[Not that he has ever been out walking around after lights out. This is a murdercruise and he wants to live, thank you very much]
These sound like common sense, this shouldn't be hard at all to do! Got anything else?
no subject
[He nods all sagelike.]
If the ghosts still follow you, find a mage to help you.

[Lalli really is the resident ghost handler around here. Still, it sure makes Filbo ask:]
I'm...not saying anything's gonna happen to you but if something does and you're not available do we have anyone else who can help with the ghosts? I guess...Magica could, but, ah...she's...not a helpful person.
[For the most part]
no subject
[He sounds very sure of this point.]
no subject
You think...he'd be willing to help? I know he turned out to be a pretty decent guy, but, uh...
[Filbo is really concerned about abusing of his trust, admittedly. Last thing they need is to turn Davy Jones against anyone on the ship, and barging in with a ghost in tow seems to him like a good way to do that.
Priorities, Filbo, get them in order]
no subject
[And then, after some consideration.]
Constantine might be a mage too.
no subject
[...maaaaaybe that's it. Maybe having magic is what gives him an edge over demons. Wow, that's kind of impressive]
