No party like an pope party??

[That... that was a thing for everyone. There should be no celebration for Lif but, well, even if Rhea has a very cynical view of such things it's probably for the best that everyone stays together. Her first stop is the cafeteria, after all nothing better to keep people in one spot than free food. There she bumps into Mira, leaving the snacks to her Rhea ends up writing notes to everyone to come to the cafeteria in a few hours.

Some she hands personally and if she can't find someone she slid it under their door. Rin's she slides into her room regardless.

Fortunately, you won't hear a sermon.]

[Literally a month away from retirement.]

We must come to at least an agreement to keep civil in front of others.

[mouflon]

Oh, we must, huh. Why's that?

[ It's half-genuine-question, half-challenge. ]

[archboxer]

The Professor.

[ Rin's challenging posture deflates a bit at that, but there's still something cautious in her words when she answers. ]

...No, you're right that we need to work together still. But that isn't so much an issue of staying civil as keeping our priorities in order. [ ... ] Well, as long as you don't decide to obstruct the investigation again, I guess I can ignore you.

[ Since getting along is out of the question. ]

[archboxer]

Call it what you wish. [They likely will fight again and probably often but at least they tried to make a ceasefire. Rhea sighs but...at least she's trying?] Very well, then.

[mouflon]

[ A little giggle escapes Rin at the resignation in Rhea's response. ]

Great, then we're in agreement. [ She gestures in what is ostensibly a wave, except the gesture is closer to a shooing motion. ] Well, then, I'll see you later!

[archboxer]

[Without a driving need to protecc, she's going to concede this victory. You don't have such a long reign without knowing to somewhat pick your battles.

She leaves peacefully.]
