Opinions without 3.1415 are just Onions (Week1 post trial)

[ghostricked]

After everything, the house seems almost too still and too mundane. At least as long as the doors to that room remain closed. One by one those covered in what was once their teammate are lead to the showers or change in silence. There is no warm meal waiting for them. No words of encouragement.

Life goes on, regardless.

Oh, thank you! I... picked up most of the... pieces. [She's going to have nightmares about that for a while, she can tell.] So it should be mostly just scrubbing and cleaning.

Ah... um, w-well done...? [ What the hell do you say to that... ] Though you could have asked for volunteers, you know.

[ Also, under his breath-- ]

Thank Yulia we have a functioning incinerator.

[ But all right, he'll come get a rag and some bleach and wish he'd looked in here before he took his shower. ]

[deadanimemom]

If I'd asked, [She explains, as she hands him a bucket of bleach water.] there are people here who would have volunteered who really shouldn't. A lot of the others here need to take their time to recover from what happened yesterday, before next week starts.

I'm obviously not saying you should have asked Yachi, but the ones who seemed less bothered by it.

[ That sounds a little snappier than intended, especially given that he's essentially criticizing her for generously doing them all a huge favor, so he shuts up after that. ]

--well, whatever.

[ He takes his rag and bucket back to the other side of the room and gets down on his knees to scrub.

Ugh, he really does hate this smell. ]

[deadanimemom]

[You're acting pretty bothered there too, friend. But she isn't going to say anything about it.

Or anything at all, while she's working on cleaning.]

[reanimania]

[ Look, it's not the gore he's bothered by, he's just on edge and doesn't like that burned smell!

And okay, we can clean in uncomfortable silence, that's fine. ]

[deadanimemom]

[That is exactly what's going to happen right now.]

[reanimania]

[ FINE, WE CAN DO THIS ALL DAY!!! ]
