Well that sure happened

[Ango truthfully isn't much of a cook, relying mostly on takeout food to keep himself fed. But takeout isn't an option here, and after that...colorful trial, he doesn't have it in him to trust food that he isn't preparing himself.

It's not bad, really. Just rather plain. There is also a noticeable lack of meat among everything he's prepared too. And it all goes well with the liquid diet he's supplying, courtesy of the jazz bar. Plenty of booze bottles and glasses can be found for your drinking needs. He's sure he's not the only one who wants to forget that whole cursed trial.]

Food and drinks are in the opera house. Be sure to drink responsibly.

-Ango

[There are also no decorations, beyond the mess left behind from earlier.]

[He glances up from the chess pieces at that, carefully considering.]

...I don't particularly care what happens to it, but how does it look?

[#priorities]

...Shin was rather talented. I kept mine, at any rate.

I hadn't really paid much attention to his work.

[Partially because he's not really the artsy type, partially because prior to a certain someone, he hasn't cared about anyone who has died.]

I suppose I'll go examine them at some point.

I would prefer they not be destroyed, but I can't really know what the others will do to them.

I believe it's fair for everyone to decide what to do with their own, but I don't really have a preference either way. I suppose I can hold onto mine, if you'd prefer to keep as many around as possible.

I'm likely going to keep his. You know someone's going to want to deface that.

Oh, of course. Might as well take it before anyone else can consider it.

[...]

Were you particularly close with him before this?

No. It just seems a shame to waste such a blatant display of talent.

[...]

I'm also not precisely bothered by what he does, granted. Not in the same way many seemed to be.

Mostly I just find it disgusting, but to each their own. It isn't as though I haven't seen worse.

[prrrrrobably. he might change his tune if he were to actually see any of shin's work.]

You found him entertaining, then?

Yes, very much so.

[...well, okay then.]

I can't say I'm surprised.

[cumore's a terrible person, news at ten........]

You aren't too annoyed, are you?

Not particularly. We had to lose some of the interesting ones eventually. Generally, he meant nothing to me.

That's what I thought.

[No judgement, he gets it.]

...Why don't we go look at those paintings now?

[C'mon, let's leave the stuffy people behind and go elsewhere, just give him a moment to put this chess set away because it's his now.]

[...Oh. Sure, yes, that's- ]

Yes, of course. I was able to find them with little difficulty.

Very well, lead the way.

[Chess set packed up, let's go!!]

[...THAT WAS FAST.

Okay, well, assuming that no one came and set fire to the whole lot of them, they should be where he left them in storage, so...]

That would be the set.

[DON'T QUESTION IT.]

Ah, I see. These are quite good, aren't they...

[Casually sorting through them all...]

Perhaps we'll have to stop by later, after the others have had a chance to take theirs. If theirs is still here at the end of the week, they won't miss it.

[looting is always a valid option!!]

[...Something occurs to him then, and he shoots Iago a bit of a weird look, but he doesn't say anything; he just nods eventually.]

I'm certain they won't. At the end of the week, then.

[...what the hell is that look for...]

Of course.

[.............okay no, he's gotta know—]

Is something the matter?

No.

[He doesn't seem bothered or anything by it, at least.]

It's nothing to concern yourself with.

...Very well.

[Hmm. Anyway, here's his! Oh, huh. This isn't bad at all...]

Well, he did do a good job with it.

[...this is kinda weird...]

I told you he was talented.

[...]

It seems a bit strange to keep a portrait of myself in my room.

[is he the only one who thinks that's a little weird???]

...Why?

[...you know what, he doesn't imagine anyone here will know what to do with that question so- ]

Do you want me to hold on to it, or is that somehow even worse.

[Hmm...]

No, that's fine. As I said, I don't particularly care what happens to it. So you're welcome to keep it if you'd like.

[It's still Kind Of Weird, but it's an acceptable amount of Weird, okay.]
