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.

Well, if you're willing to help. Don't force yourself.

[oxidegreen]

I'm not forcing myself. I want to help.

[It's one very, very small thing she can do, and that's better than nothing.]

What can I do?

[deadanimemom]

Do you know how to use a mop?

[oxidegreen]

Yes, I do. Do you already have one, or should I go get one from the supply closet?

[deadanimemom]

I don't have one yet, but I did see one in the supply closet.

[oxidegreen]

[She nods.]

I'll go get it.

[And so she will! She returns after a while, along with a bucket of water. Time to... clean blood. So much blood.]

[deadanimemom]

[Thankfully, Yuri's picked up the worst of the... bits of Sho. She's wiping down walls right now.]

Did you find everything all right? There's some bleach in that corner that you can add to the water.

[oxidegreen]

Yes. I've been looking around from time to time.

[Though she will go ahead and grab bleach to add to the mix.]

...How long have you been working on this?

[deadanimemom]

I kind of lost track of time. [She says, a little embarrassed.]

[oxidegreen]

...Have you eaten?
