[ January 25th, after Mark's role call message ]

Circling the Wagons time, folks. Who's got what on hand, what colors are you connected to- Kamala, Bruce, drop your knowledge for any newcomers caught up in this mess. Whatever emotional trigger or whatever used to be needed for them? Doesn't seem to be a thing.

If anyone's found a source of water, let it be known.

For me I've got- a hammer and a chisel. That's it.

What's black even do? Never used it before.

Heh heh, you've got a deal. I'll see you there.

[There will be pancakes, and Seifer holding it together until he's in private where he can break down in peace. Right now he just has to focus on moving forward until there's no more forward to move.

The tone concerns him. Now isn't the time to press.]

[skyward_eyes]

Things on here mention an adrenaline boost. Or motivation? Maybe both? Ask others. You have another black, right? Ask them.

[firacrux]

I'll ask.

And Nida? Hold it together.

Private

[skyward_eyes]

[Hold it together? Hold it together?]

Shey and Nidera Nomura were publicly executed by the orders of General Fury Caraway.

[Somehow he doesn't care that Vanille hears that. At all.]

Private

[firacrux]

[Oh. That's.]

Shit. [Eloquent. He can guess who those two were by the names, Nida's parents, he remembers. The worst moment to remember, of course.]

Nida, I... I'm sorry. We'll...

Let's get home. Okay? Just focus on one thing right now, alright?

[He doesn't have any empty words of encouragement or platitudes. Honestly he doesn't know how to handle the situation at all. Caraway... Hyne, he can already see the tension against Rinoa coming. They have to focus.]

Re: Private

[skyward_eyes]

[Focus? His focus is on breaking things.]

I have a pair of people to see safely home. The mission comes first.

Private

[firacrux]

Exactly. Do that. I'll take care of the pancakes.

[It's just a matter of keeping their heads together until then.]

Re: Private

[skyward_eyes]

[Yeah, whatever.]

Take care of yourself, Almasy. Because if you don't, you have to answer to me.

Private

[firacrux]

[Don't you whatever him. Only Squall gets to whatever him.]

Yeah, yeah. Move out. If you need me you know who to reach out to.
