Afterparty

[After the execution finishes and Wendy is dragged down into the Earth by that absolute horrific monstrosity of a creature and Typhon gives his goodbye, Quark will stand there for a long moment in the silence, before announcing, in a voice that wavers while trying to go for neutral:]

The bar’ll be open. Sitting around alone isn’t going to help anyone. [he turns to look at Ferdinand] Ferdinand, you’re with me. I need someone to move the table.

[and, taking Cerejeira’s elbow, he’s going to head out of the Arena. So...post trial, the Eatery’s been moved into bar configuration by Ferdinand and Quark. There’s been several of the extra togas gathered and folded to be used as blankets. There are snacks from the pantry brought out and placed on plates and in bowls and left out to eat. The bar is open, but so is the kitchen, if anyone wants to make something.

Both Ferdinand and Quark can be found behind the bar, the latter attempting to teach the former how to use the replicator he’s now got back there in addition to the other drink components. At least it’s keeping them busy. They’re both there to serve drinks, however.

The door is open.]

Yes! I could think of no one more capable.

[He walks in, trying to be cheerful]

It is a lovely trinket, it would be a shame to not see it restored.

Mmhmm. ...it's her sister's.

[She says it quietly.]

Aoi wishes that Alex didn't die, but...I can't hate Wendy for what happened, either. She was never a bad person.

[he sighs, coming to sit]

Nor do I. She was trying to save family. I could never resent such an action.

She loved her sister a lot. Aoi knows...love makes people do a lot of things they shouldn't.

Love and desperation, the two great motivators of the world.

...has Ferdinand ever done something desperate for love?

... not for romance, if that is what you mean. But love? Yes. Love of country, my friends, my people. Family. I would not be here otherwise.

[As in, you know, dead and a god]
yourheroine: (◯ never have his love to keep)

You must care about all of those people a lot.

Aoi...is still new to feeling all of those things for real.
