Week 6 Post-Trial

[So that was yet another depressing culmination of multiple people's emotional development arcs for good or for bad. People who had at least somewhat originally believed in the unification of the group. Maybe it wouldn't be appropriate to demand a gathering immediately.

And besides that... [Or... hm. Perhaps rethinking his words, he trails off, shakes his head, and starts again.] No, never mind. We should just focus on escaping if we can.

[battlestations]

We will, but speak your mind. We have enough regrets already.

[He wonders if he's thinking about bringing back the dead. It'd explain the hesitation. That might be tough without getting caught in the time loop...]
