weekend mingle featuring 5 pm brunch because time is meaningless now

[pr159]

[ 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's the 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. ]

[ He's nodding along with that as she speaks, chewing on a bite of pancake. All of these things have been said before, but he does not get tired of hearing them and agreeing with them. The fuck-Ango circlejerk is soothing. ]

Related to this, I think we should be keeping a close eye on Dazai. He had always appeared to be the less trustworthy of the two to start with and this is only becoming acutely more worrisome.

I've never been fond of him in the first place, so you won't hear any complaints there.

[ she already had a very ill opinion of him since he pushed her into the pool. and now, knowing that he lied to everyone about his power...yeah no dazai can eat it. ]

I don't see him working against us to defeat The Lady necessarily, but regardless, whatever faith I had in him is essentially gone.
