【OPEN FALLEN STARS MEETING】

[aupologizes]

It had been less than twenty-four hours since the cherry blossom's tree became even more unstable, spewing out dangerous goo that frightened many of those who lived in the lower level.

...However, if now wasn't the time to hold a gathering, then when?🗈

Hence why Hanyuu puts up the big sign at the bakery - it may be devoid of the owner, but that doesn't mean that she won't take care of things there as well as using her powers as a kami to have her voice reverberate throughout the upper levels.

There is no sign of the childish tones that those may be familiar with as she speaks.

Instead, it is replaced with clear power, and a serious edge to them, booming like a broadcast through a megaphone:

"Fellow Fallen Stars, citizens of Starsand, if you can hear my voice, then I implore you to help. I wish to find a solution to our current issue, so I would like to work together with all of you.

We shall meet at the bakery to discuss the more intricate details of the current situation; there will be food provided to everyone. I will also offer my personal protection here as well.

There is no need for those of you to get involved if you do not wish for it. However, I would like for you all to listen, at the very least."

That is all she can ask for, really.

And of course, her words ring true: the bakery is open for this purpose as Hanyuu stands tall in her miko garb with serious, but determined eyes, feet several inches off the ground.

But as promised, there is a variety of food as well, stemming from actual meals that could be found for a picnic to cute desserts such as creampuffs.

OOC: This is an open mingle meeting log to discuss the current rumor and is open to all characters involved. As this is a mingle log, please do not hesitate to threadjack or tag around as needed.

If everyone believes in it, a miracle will happen. That is something that I learned.

[ Her words are softer now, but no less serious. ]

But clearly you were not paying attention when I spoke about that child's wish. I saw their memories. Of how people used to celebrate flower viewing underneath that tree.

If you want to fix the mistake you made, then you should think first about not making more, or that it would even clear things up in the first place.

[ She takes a heavy sigh out. ]

I don't know if it will. I cannot guarantee that. I will be honest about that much.

However. I would like to believe. Of course, there is no certainty that things would end up well. But that is why I have opted to ask for countermeasures, for other plans in case it doesn't work. But that doesn't mean that child deserves to become a monster for wanting something like that... or that we should resort to such measures to save others.

Now now, you too.

[Leo can't believe he's getting up from his chair to deescalate this situation. If he's having to leave Elliot's side, then Leo is doubly shocked by himself. But this wouldn't be the first argument that he's had to break up. Or been a part of, and then needed to be broken up.

He steps between the girls, motioning distance with his one hand and limp sleeve.]

This spirit has been suffering for some time now. Who's to say that even they can understand their own wish amidst all of their pain? Perhaps the solution is peaceful, yes, [He looks at Hanyuu. Then to Fauna;] But they may also need to throw a tantrum in order to shed their suffering.

[Leo has been there.

He brings his 'hands' together in what would have been a clapping motion.]

Let's prepare for both options.

[Fauna grimaces. Whatever words she had to say are bitten back. There's no point in getting worked up.]

... Fine.

Do your little show picnic. But if it doesn't work, I'll handle things my way.

[She turns away.]

[aupologizes]

Ah-

[ She pauses, the red color in her eyes fading back into its normal violet hues. There's a pitiful look in her eyes as she finds herself shrinking back to the point where her form almost begins to flicker between tangibility and not. ]

...I'm sorry.

[ Her lips quiver as she almost opens her mouth to say it again, the repetitive "I'm sorry" as if on instinct before she just flies off into the kitchen instead. ]

[goldspecktacles]

[Leo watches the two of them going them going their separate ways, with his smile not reaching his eyes. Quite the opposite, actually. The gold specks in his eyes seem to burn with anger. But the conflict is over, so he too goes his own way and returns to his seat.]
