weekend mingle featuring 5 pm brunch because time is meaningless now
[ There probably isn't a single person among them who isn't exhausted after that trial, so it's no surprise that, like last week, there's no party when it's over. Maybe some stay out and mill about the city, while others finally take the chance to get some well-deserved sleep.
Personally, Rideaux is absolutely going to bed now, because it's fucking 10 am or something, and that was a lot.
But when he wakes up again in what is nominally the afternoon, once he's taken a shower and no longer looks like a haggard mess, he's actually going to hole up in the kitchen at the clergy housing and make some pancakes. Just pancakes and nothing else, because this mix is "just add water!" and that'sthe extent of his cooking skills the most effort he's going to put into anything. Some of them may be slightly burned and oddly shaped, but they're free, so shut it.
There's also some coffee and some (cheap, not his good stuff) whiskey, so if you want to make a half-assed Irish coffee, he's not stopping you.
Is this supposed to be a distraction? Is this actually all just to celebrate the fact that Cumore briefly thought he was going to die and that was delicious to watch? Maybe, but no one has to know that. ]

[ And that's neither here nor there. Mikami and Dazai had certainly bonded over their mutual fatigue with generally existing, but that bond is now severely tainted. (This may not be a bad thing.) ]
I do not intend to give up, but if we make it out of this, it will be in the full knowledge that Sakaguchi has tripled the effort.

Certainly. However...
[He hesitates for a moment, his gaze dropping to the ground as he moves to press a hand to his mouth as he considers.]
...Dist and I discussed our current situation here shortly before he died. [A soft exhale, then he shakes his head.] Give me some time. I want to see if I can get anything more out of them before I share what we found.
[And when he smiles next, it's sharp.]
I think we still have a shot at winning this.
no subject
Let me know if there is anything you need in terms of assistance. Currently I am more inclined to trust your and Dist's judgement than that of most others.
[ BECAUSE SOME OF THEM ARE PEOPLE WHO SEMI-FORGAVE ANGO.... ]

Thank you for your support. What I need most right now is any more information we can possibly get. Whether that's from the Lady and Rembrandt or from the areas here doesn't matter - anything else we can learn will be essential.
Everything we can learn will be to our benefit. Right now, we need to put aside our differences and how much we can't stand one another and work to reach a common goal. I think we can all agree that we're done dealing with the Lady and Rembrandt at the very least.

However deceptive or irrational or violent they may be. Unfortunately, these are the cards we've been given.
no subject
As long as you'll continue to work with us, that's all I can ask of you. You do have an excellent eye for detail, and that will only serve us well in the end. Once we've put an end to the Lady and Rembrandt, I imagine most of us will go our separate ways.
[Unless you like. want to murder all the terrible people here, which is fair, but also he's one of them so maybe don't??? Does being Cumore's friend give him a get out of the death note free card???]
no subject
[ Though huh, Dist and Iago weren't from the same world. If they manage to save Dist, then that is going to be a question for them, isn't it? ]
no subject
[That answers that question, doesn't it.]
Perhaps you can go to Cumore's.
[Is this a serious suggestion or is he just throwing it out there to see what you'll do with your face.........]
no subject
I'd be out of a job there.
[ Joke's on Iago, he's literally scouted out this possibility like two hours ago. ]
no subject
I would say you'd have fun in Nohr, but everyone would hate Nohr.
[On the one hand, full of criminals! On the other, it sucks so much, don't go to Nohr. He hates Nohr.]
I do hope you're able to find something to do with yourself when all this is over. We have bigger things to worry about right now, but it's something to keep in mind.
no subject
It seems that I will have to. Hopefully the options will present themselves more clearly once we've gotten rid of that horrid woman.
no subject
I'm sure they will. We'll have her castle to explore, after all, and I'm sure we'll find quite a few interesting things there.
