bianca's gone. in case those who knew her didn't already notice.

it was her idea to set up monthly dance nights at the speakeasy. thought it sounded like a good idea back then. still do.

obviously we have a lot of other shit to worry about, but think we all could use a regular breather, if anyone wants to help out or bitch about how stupid it is.

[And that's all she wrote. Despite how things ended between her and Bianca the last time they met, this wasn't the outcome that Rey had wanted. Still, it could be worse. Not like enough people don't think of this place as a prison.]

I'll help. She was a friend.

What do you need done?

[circumitus]

appreciate it.

special decor might be nice. maybe different themes every month.
don't know. just an idea.

[pellameno]

Could be fun. It might be easiest to base it around the music at first.

[circumitus]

been thinking of that too. we have some means for live music, but it'd be better if there's a way of arranging a disc jockey setup.

[Firo hadn't been too close with Bianca, but he immediately feels for Rey. They all know the pain of being wrenched away from their friends and family, and they don't need it to be repeated.]

Sucks. I know you two were really good friends. You going to be ok?

[pellameno]

I'll ask around, but I think most of things were destroyed with the bar.

[For a long, long stretch of time, he waffles. He's good at that. He dithers, dallies, and generally lollygags in indecision before, at long last, he finally manages a single world:]

condolences.

[The font probably doesn't help it sound real sincere.

It is.]

idk how good id be at setting it up but
if you need someone to make something or w/e i mean i can do my best

[She... sort of gets the feeling there was more to it than this. A connection Rey isn't talking about, because people don't usually make posts like this unless they were the first point of contact, someone they knew. But she's not the type to bring up that sort of thing.]

Are you all right?

I'll help. [ she's always been torn on Bianca since her relationship with Mello evolved but now that the songstress and killer was gone, she felt a twinge of something like loss. ]

[circumitus]

seems that way.
should be able to manage. if nothing else, might have to call in a favor.

text

[circumitus]

we were a little more than friends for a while firo.
but yes, will be ok.

[circumitus]

[A good "fuck off" comes to mind when Rey first sees this, but she manages to restrain herself for a good two seconds:]

don't.
it's probably better this way anyway.

text

[skelebro]

maybe, yeah.
still sucks.

[text]

[circumitus]

just helping set up and attending sounds good enough.
thanks.

Text

[circumitus]

will be.
it's complicated.

[Bianca has made some questionable decisions over her tenure here, which probably comes as no surprise to anyone. Rey is more than aware of it, herself.]

thanks.
she seemed to really like you.

[foundafamily]

Family then. Didn't mean to make it sound less important.

[He's actually kind of surprised Rey would quibble over the wording, but it's important to be respectful.]

When do you think youll get this dancing stuff started? Don't know anything about that so don't know if I'll be much help

Text

[mismanagement]

I know.

do you

need anything?

[circumitus]

wasn't really that either.
not that it matters anymore. it's gone.

[She isn't exactly quibbling, but that probably doesn't transfer very well through text. Oh well.]

don't know. in a month or two, maybe?
whenever we know our plans are least likely to get fucked up.

text

[circumitus]

depends on who you ask.
some assholes can't wait to leave.

Text

[circumitus]

other than a lifetime supply of bourbon and a 10 year nap?

it's good. everythings good.

text

[skelebro]

didn't mean the leaving.
meant more along the lines of not getting to say goodbye.

text

[circumitus]

we did.
just not in the way you're probably thinking.

text

[skelebro]

[...yeah. Okay.

What the hell's he doing, prying like this? Should'a learned his lesson by now.]

probably.
