What I want to hear on nights I can't sleep is your voice

[ ... Well, that was an absolute shitshow, wasn't it? Instead of dwelling on how she feels about everything that just happened, Mira's channeling that energy into something else--and she has a little bit of help doing it. Zerinda and Ema are here in the bar to make drinks, and Mira's brought in a ton of food that's definitely not healthy for anyone, but screw it, who cares about health right now?

Della's here to pass out invitations, too--they let everyone know there's a gathering in the bar, if they'd rather not be alone.

If you choose not to come, well... Mira's got that taken care of, too. She'll place a little container of cookies and hot cocoa outside your door. Maybe it'll help someone feel a little less alone--at least, that's what she's hoping. ]

[kirei is wholeass 38 years old he does not care]

It's certainly a word to use, I think.

In any event, there's no unringing the bell, right? What's past is past. We just have to pick up the pieces from here.

[ Easier said than done, but... ]

What's that thing they say? The serenity to accept the things I cannot change...

'God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.'

[He sighed to himself, briefly closing his eyes.]

Far easier said than done.

Nothing about this is easy, I'm afraid.

[ They're good words, though. Even divorced from the religious element, there's comfort in the idea. ]

But we're all still here, at the end of the day. If you ask me, there's something to be said about that.

Better to survive than to die unfulfilled, yes.

The silver lining is, we have no shortage of time, right? Plenty of chances to do what fulfills us.

I think we've quite a shortage of time, should the current pattern hold. There's no telling what the next week will bring, or who is liable to turn up dead next.

[ S-she was trying to be positive..! ]

Well, I think we're a little overdue for a stroke of good luck, personally...
