WEEK 5 AFTERPARTY(?)

[fullbodied]

After all of that, maybe their spirits were on the edge of breaking down. Or maybe they just needed time to process what had just happened.

But either way, in the wake of the trial, it was quiet.🗈

There wasn't an after-party this time. Though there probably should be, some time to connect between the remaining pieces, the people who would have arranged it... all needed some time alone. But there is a chance to connect, even if it isn't via a party.

You can hold on, if you feel like you need to.

[And with that, Vinea floats up into the air.]

[incrediblystressedout]

[She's shocked again, and takes the invitation to lock her arms around Vinea's shoulders, but honestly, she's rapidly growing more okay with the stomach-dropping feeling of flight when it's someone else holding her in the air.]

[oceanicbutterfly]

Are you all right?

[She probably is, judging by the lack of terrified screaming, but it never hurts to make sure.

Either way, Vinea moves over the roof once they're high enough to do so, so it's not like she'll have a long way to fall if she does.]

[incrediblystressedout]

This is new. There's a lot of new things happening.

[She thinks on it.]

But for once...new is nice.

[oceanicbutterfly]

It can be. A lot of this is new to me, too.

[All of it, technically.]

[incrediblystressedout]

So did you have a destination in mind, or are we just going to float around while I imagine some John Williams music playing?

I'm good with either, for the record.

Honestly, I hadn't really thought about it past "up." Which is the second one, I suppose.
