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.]

[ It's something she feels she has no choice but to do. ...That sure is different than choosing the life of adventuring. Della is quiet for a moment. ]

I sure hope you aren't doing this type of thing alone.

[ whY DO YOU PEOPLE KEEP ASKING HER THAT

Rin looks away, and there's a tension in her jaw as she answers. ]

So long as there are people who feel the same way I do, there are people to fight beside me.

[nothingcanstop]

[ Because it's IMPORTANT, Rin!!

Della again takes a moment to think. ]

...It must at least get a little lonely. I'm sorry. I'm not...going to tell you to stop, if this is something you're so passionate about... And I'm sure you don't have to listen to me. But I'm sorry, if it's lonely.

[mouflon]

[ Oof. At that, Rin abruptly stands. ]

Whether it's lonely or not, that's none of your business.

[nothingcanstop]

[ ...Ha. She should've expected to get that reaction. ]

I know it's not.

[mouflon]

Then why waste your breath on it?

[nothingcanstop]

Because I know the need to talk about that kind of loneliness. If you don't want to, that's fine. But I'd rather offer and be rejected than not try.

[mouflon]

Consider the topic closed, then.

[nothingcanstop]

Alright, then.
