Who: Everyone
When: Day 43, Nighttime
Where: The clearing, now no longer a beach

[ The beach fades away, leaving everyone back in the comfortable and familiar surroundings of the clearing and their-- beloved?-- train. There are some new stars in the sky, twinkling in ginger goldenrod, thyme apple, senna terracotta, jasmine blue, and clover pink.

The sound of a giggle fills the air and leaves behind bubbles-- touching one will give the uncontrollable urge to hug the nearest person. They will persist throughout the night. ]

[ WELL. ]

[ That. Went well. Yeah. ]

[ Faito doesn't hang around long, instead making a beeline for a moonlit walk on the beach. ]

[THERE YOU ARE]

Faito?

[ holy fuck she almost jumps out of her skin, and for a second it distinctly looks like she's going to bolt ]

[ But. No. Okay. Turns to wave sheepishly. ]

Hey. I was just heading out for a walk.

.... [What is with the wanting to bolt.]

Mind if I join you....?

[ She's an awkward nerd sometimes ]

Sure.

So, how'd you enjoy the game?

[ Clasps her hands loosely behind herself as they walk, breathing in the (unfortunately warm and humid) night air. ]

I met some cool new friends, so that was fun ... but I think I don't like parties as much as I used to. Or, uh. I don't like parties where you have to cuddle so much, for so long.

Yeah, that does get pretty awkward after a while.

... It's easy with you. With anyone else, it's ... [ Awkward. To say the least. ] And I hated some of the questions.

What about you? Did you have a good time?

Some of the questions really were awkward. [That kink one though.]

...kinda. Terrorized Eliza a bit, that was fun. 80H was a fun talk [In a very SIGH tone of voice] but Five and I bonded more I think.

Mmmmmhm. [ HUFF. ] The one about "my favourite person" annoyed me.

[ But she perks up at the mention of Five. ]

Oh! Five! We talked a lot, he's really cool.

Why's that?

He is certainly an interesting fellow. [They have so much in common, it's terrible.] You seemed to leave a good impression on him too.

It's mean. Different people are important to me in different ways; it doesn't have to mean one is more or less important. [ Her hands go to her hips. ] And what about the people who don't get mentioned? Even if they're not there to hear about it ... it sucks to be left out.

[ drops her arms again, half laughing and half sighing. ]

He's really cool and interesting, and nice - not polite, heck no, but in here. [ Taps her heart. ] He's smart, too. And he gave me some good advice.
