week seven afterparty

[ so how is everyone doing today? pretty badly, I'd assume, but there's so little of them left, not to mention that Bolin is going to get executed because of an accident. on top of that, there's the confusion coming from the public.

so what's going on.

today's going to be a little different - as Sakura seeks everyone out. she knows it's tough, but given the circumstances, she wants to invite everyone to meet her in front of the police station.

yeah.

we're having a jail cell afterparty, apparently. oh, and she's brought pancakes because... you all probably need that after. All of This. of course people can always ignore her request and just go somewhere else, but where are you tonight? ]

[well, Osomatsu was going to go to the jail cell anyway to talk with Bolin. but it's fine if everyone else is there. it's better, even.

he's brought along the courtroom requests he obtained from the bailiff, and he'll wait until people are around to say what they are]

I guess these were requests that were made for using the courtroom. They... weren't made by the Sergeant, any of them. In fact, one of the papers said I made a request, an' I sure as hell didn't. Ever.

Do you think that the Sergeant-san might have forged them...? Or made them think that our group made the requests so they would have been put under our names?

[ like, actually. are these courtroom requests signed by the ones who requested them or what??? ]

If he can do all the other stuff he does, then it would've been easy for him to forge 'em. Right?

...I just wonder if these were the papers the other guys wanted us to find.

Probably.

[ on both accounts... ] You think we can find out?

[Keith wasn't exactly planning on being at the party, more than he wanted to talk to Bolin, but...

He pauses when Oso brings this up because he'd really stupidly gotten sidetracked by arguing with Natalie instead of paying attention to that stuff with Juno.]

...Can I see that?

Yeah, sure.

[he'll hand over several papers to Keith. the requests for the use of the courtroom were apparently taken out by Bolin, Dazai, Frasier, Hawks, Kino, and Osomatsu, himself]

[Kino had to be retrieved from the kitchen most likely, but she is here and alive, fancy that.]

...Changing perceptions again...?

[Like previous weeks, Natalie doesn't attend the party. Unlike previous weeks, though, she can't be found anywhere else in the town. She's missing from the pond, the library, and any other place she tends to frequent when she needs to think. Anyone with good timing might run into her on her way from the courtroom to the motel or, much later, from the motel on a brief trip to the jail, but other than that...

Well, her door is available to be knocked on, at least.]

[There is eventually a knock on Natalie's door, yes. It's a little later into the evening, after they've both had a little cool down time, but they clearly have a lot to talk about... so.]

It's me. You in there?

[There's a pause before there's any indication she's heard him, but... After a minute or two, the door swings open. She's looking at the ground, and she doesn't say anything to him just yet.]

[It's amazing what actual days of sleep will do for a sudden cold. Kino's exceptionally well rested now and fully intending to make a soup run when she sees Natalie walk into the motel.]

Ah... [Good. She survived.] How did it go?

[She looks towards her, and Kino will probably notice that she looks... discontent is an understatement.]

It could have gone worse.

[But it certainly could have gone better, too.]

You feeling okay? I didn't see you there.

[Keith is only ever incidentally at the party when he's there to try speaking to Bolin. After everything that happened at the trial and afterwards with the call for volunteering for executioner, he's just kinda drained and doesn't have a whole lot of spare energy for socializing.

He's more present at the park later with Cosmo. The two of them are hanging out in a secluded area, further away from the statue + fort monster combo. Hard to believe that was a big concern of his at the end of last week.]

It's all over next week, huh.

[He's giving the space wolf idle ear skritches.]

[It takes a while, but Kino does eventually locate him, staring at him with a rather flat look for a full moment before she actually speaks.]

I heard what happened from Natalie. I taught her how to hold a gun as well.

[If she'd just left it at that first part, he might have responded with something flippant, but....]

.. So that's how she plans on doing this.

I offered to teach her when I found out she was chosen. She took me up on it.

[ she's the one who invited people over so obviously she's here, but... everyone isn't here today so she'll leave the information that she's got for another day. while she does have pancakes, there's also something else in her arms that's new: it's a bright green teddy bear.

huh.

nevertheless, she's trying her best to stay determined in spite of everything, but it's because she's so steadfast that allows her to do this much. ]

[ Bolin has already accepted his fate. He looks resolute as the bailiffs escort him to his jail cell. He's fully prepared to make some sort of joke as he gets locked in, about how "Maybe this is the time he'll learn metalbending!". Everything is going as much as according to plan as he could have liked. The bars to the cell open and he walks inside. It's only once the door is locked does he notice an odd shape in the blanket on the bed.

It moves, and Bolin looks harder at it until a familiar chirp emerges from it.

Bolin's face slowly morphs into dawning horror as the shape continues to move until this creature emerges from it. It chirps once more and leaps at Bolin, who instinctively catches it. ]

Pabu...

[ Pabu chirps once more and then immediately, Bolin crumbles into the floor, pulling Pabu into his arms. ]

Oh, Pabu, Pabu... I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!

[ Pabu continues to chirp, not sure why Bolin is sad, but is doing his best to cheer him up.

Sorry to anyone who followed Bolin to his cell, because he's not going to pay attention to you for the moment........ ]

[Luckily (???), it's later on when she comes into the jail, stopping in front of his cell. There's no good way to start this conversation - or to have it, really.

Even so...]

Um... Hey.

[ By then, Bolin has fortunately (???) pulled himself together, so she'll see him sitting against the bed, with Pabu laying across his shoulders. His eyes look red, but that's the only remaining sign of his breakdown. He has a hand up, scritching Pabu behind the ears when he notices Natalie. ]

Oh, hey Natalie.

[It's a liitle while after Bolin's adjusted to his cell that Keith shows up, pointedly ignoring the pancakes and the attempt at festivities. The wolf is with him -- in retrospect maybe that was a mistake, but Cosmo's at least well behaved.]

Hey.

[ Sup Keith, that sure is a fire ferret that is curled around Bolin's shoulders. Who perks up when Cosmo arrives and chirps at him curiously ]

Oh, hey Keith.

[Osomatsu comes to the jail a little later, also, since he was talking to a few people about those papers he obtained. he sighs through his nose when he sees Bolin. he feels... so sad seeing him like this. he's just a kid. it's like this whole ordeal is one big failure]

Hey.

[ just like everyone else coming to the cell, osomatsu will see one (1) new fire ferret curled around Bolin's shoulders. ]

Hey, Osomatsu.
