*Troll sits in the middle of the rubble that was a couch*
RT: Humanses sitty box weak!

*Kara is still unconscious*

*Santiago quietly sets a tray down on the stand next to Joalia and sits back down next to her*

*Maiev wakes up, groans, then looks over at Kara*
*Weakly gets up, wets a towel, and applies it to Kara's head*

~

*Joalia tries to smile at Santiago, but can't bring herself to do it*

*Kara mumbles and slowly lifts open her eyes*
K: Where are we?

*Santiago kisses Joalia and puts a hand on the side of her face*
S: Hungry, Joal?

*Maria waves to marrilania after waking up and goes to check on the med bays after a quick chat*

*quietly reviews which med bay is occupied on a quick round and checks notes*
*sighs slightly as never good the place is busy and heads back to office to update several records with notes and who is in*

...

*marinalia wanders over to the main pool, changes and dives in swimming a few dozen laps for exercise*

*Verdai looks at Trolly with mild concern*
...It's a couch. Not a sittybox. Technically, it's an oval. Also, who are you?

*Maiev looks around*
M: Our room, it seems. How you holding up Kara?
*Sits beside Kara and strokes her face*

~

*Joalia shakes her head*

*Troll shakes his head*
RT: Was sitty box! Now sitty floor!
*bangs a fist against his chest*
RT: Rock Troll! Best Troll!

*Kara nods and props herself up with an elbow*
K: Tired. That took a lot out of me.

*Santiago nods*
S: Alright.
*leans forwards and kisses Joalia's forehead*

*Maiev nods, but holds down Kara*
M: Rest. Please. You did a lot.
*Lies down beside Kara with a grunt*
M: My everything hurts. You?

~

*Joalia tries hugging Santiago, but can't move her arms*
*Eyes start watering at her inability to do anything*

*Leo shifts and wakes up*

*Sees the floof and smiles*

*She tries to uncurl and not wake Blue*

*Blue uncovers her head with her wings, and yawn-chirps*
*Snuggles Leo for warmth, cause the morning is cold af*

Cylinder. Not box. And you're a... troll, yes? What is your name?

*Vitani stretches from the couch and awakens*
Vitani: God.. I fell asleep.
*She begins walking to her bedroom to catch more zzz*

*Leo pets the floofy ears*

Leo: Morning you.

*Leo stands up hunched over*

*Goes to stretch but her room is to small for that*

*She frowns and walks into the main room rolling her shoulders*

*Troll bangs his fist against a part of the couch*
RT: Was box! Now not!
*bangs a fist against his chest again*
RT: Gort! What is humanses?

*Kara frowns and looks Maiev over*
K: You were hurt? What happened?

*Santiago sees Joalia's eyes start to water and kisses her*
S: I love you.
*goes back to kissing her*

I am Verdai. And it was a cylinder. You see the round edges, yes?

*Troll looks around at the scattered pieces of couch*
RT: Uhh... no more edges! Boxy gone!

...Hold on a moment.
*Summons a round observation drone, and it hovers over the wreckage of the couch*
What shape is that? Do you still think it's a box?

*Gort stares at the drone*
RT: Floaty circle! Looks like rock!
*stomps towards the drone*

See? It's - almost the same shape as the couch was, so the couch was more of a cylinder. So calling it a box makes no sense. You have to have more in your life than just boxes and circles. Much more interesting that way.

*Vitani calls to V from her room*
Vitani: It can be whatever the hell he wants it to be. Shh.
*Vitani slams her bedroom door*

*Ciri still sleeps happily next to Taeria.*

---

*Rita still sits next to Izriel looking worried.*
Rita: Any news on Gharn?
*Her eyes are still red, but flecks of blue still stain her Irises.*

*Nods, eyes are quite red from stress*
...A nurse came and talked to me...Said he was sorry...Didn't elaborate...

~

*Blue chirps, and tiredly follows Leo*
*Slower than usual, cause tired*

~

*Maiev shrugs*
M: Got hit by a few arrows. Nothing bad.

~

*Joalia mouths "I love you" back, and starts crying*

*Gort catches the drone and bites down onto it*
G: Like rock. But not good rock.

*Kara nods and puts an arm around Maiev*
K: As long as you're alright.
*shivers and pulls Maiev closer*
It's cold.

*Santiago hugs Joalia and kisses her cheek*
S: It's alright.

*Winces as the drone is destroyed*
That's... atypical... it's ceramic and metal. Not sure if you want to digest that.

*When Leo gets into the main room she stretches*

Leo: Much better.

*Wipes a bit of drool from the side of her mouth*

Leo: Time to eat...

*She heads for the kitchen*

*Gort looks at Verdai and swallows the piece of drone in his mouth*
RT: Crunchy floaty rock.

...Oh dear gods why?
*Sits down and tries to block out the sounds of a drone being crunched*

*Maiev grabs a blanket, and pulls it to cover Kara*
M: It is very cold.

~

*Joalia shakes her head and continues crying*
*Sad Joal is sad*

~

*Blue follows along, still tired*

*After awhile Ciri wakes up, kisses Taeria, then showers and gets dressed.*
*She then walks into the main room.*
Ciri: Morning everyone!

----

*Rita hangs her head with sadness, but nods.*
Rita: Oh...
*She hugs Izriel, and leans her heavily.*

*marilania walks out after a swim in a skirt and short sleeved casual shirt. *

*notices troll too*
