everybody's fine 'cause it's party time ( W5 AFTERPARTY )

[cheerfuldays]

After a positively thrilling game of the prisoner's dilemma, it's all over. Everyone needs to get patched up, recover and... hopefully not kill each other after everything. At some point in the cafeteria, Shizuku and Madara have taken over the kitchen- though help won't be denied completely- and leaving a large meal of noodles and whatever else they can still use from Fai and Shizuku's little shopping trip... not a lot of fresh food, but it works out. There's also plenty of coffee, a tea kettle and even hot chocolate ready. (Shizuku herself is using her ill-gotten tapioca balls for some homemade boba, hell yeah.) Team Idol may not stick around for long, but there's plenty to go around for now... and Shizuku will happily bring over some snacks from the convenience store too. And did you know that place has a milkshake machine? Because it does. Get you a milkshake, people.

But tensions are high after everything. Hopefully this doesn't become a murdergame.

( shizuku blinks because, dad what- but you know what? she'll take that cushion. one does not look a gift pillow in the fluff. )

I hope that whatever it is you're doing is nice and comfortable, then.

[selfconcept]

It will be. Got all these cushions, after all.

[ It'll be a bed covered with pillows and cushions. The perfect scenario.

He takes more sips of the tea. ]

... Did Fai tell you about my tastes?

[cheerfuldays]

Mhm, I asked him. I wanted to do something nice for you after everything... And I thought it might help your throat.

[selfconcept]

[ Hien would normally say he hasn't done anything, but this good tea is free. He won't complain. ]

...Thanks.

[ He drinks the rest of the tea. ]

Thoughtful as always, aren't you? I hope your legs will heal.

[ Girl idol outfits tend to show off legs, so Hien thinks that's mildly concerning if it leaves a scar. ]

[cheerfuldays]

( just! beams! yep, she sure is! )

You're welcome!

( her legs though... she sighs a little, and offers an unsure smile. )

Even if it doesn't, there's always ways to cover it up, at least. I'm just glad it... ah, didn't damage bone.

[selfconcept]

That's good, but your muscles are important too.

[ Just imagine no more dancing... couldn't be him. ]

I hope you'll take it easy. It'd be nice if I could see you inside one of those weird portals so that I could try to heal you.

[cheerfuldays]

That is true...

( but as someone written by someone who has crunched knees, she does not want crunched knees. crunched up knees... bad. )

I'll be taking it very easy though. I don't think I'll be doing much for a few days, actually.
