[ Della's face pops up looking... well, like everyone else - exhausted physically, mentally, and emotionally. She smacks her beak a bit, before speaking. ]
... So. That sucked.
[ Fully aware that's the understatement of the century, Della draws a breath, and tries again. ]
I think we could all use a nice, long breather after everything... and, gosh darn it, as Train Mom, that is my sacred duty. Hugs? Head on the lap? Head-pats telling you that you did a good job? A shoulder to cry on? Venting out all your feelings without judgement? I'm right here.
[ She slaps her chest, then slaps a small sign on on the sports/gym car. It reads
EXHAUST PILE WITHIN
But as she does this, Tidus enters the scene - Della jumps, surprised, almost forgetting his presence.
He just smiles, holding up two cups with steam coming off them, then addresses the video feed as well. ]
We're also making big batches of cocoa too. Any of you that're gonna stress bake? There's room for that room - s'long as you don't need a nap first.
[ It's a small chide though, his smile small but sympathetic. ]
I've gotten out some incense pots from the supplies - you guys who got your head thrown into a blender by that aash-- uh, that jerk, [ he takes a swift glance at Della, then back ] --it'll help you relax. Just some, but better than nothin'. I'll set some off in Momma Duck's air nest, but if you're not doing great and you think you need a pot? Tell me. Raven made a lot of good stuff for good nights sleep if you need any in the medcar, too.
... So, yes. Cocoa. Incense. Hugging. And if you want to sleep with friends for a couple nights, we got air beds and extra pillows in here. Nobody has to get up and go until they feel ready.
And if that's not enough, that's fine too. Maybe next month we do something a little more organized, if you have any suggestions - movie night, sleepover night, big eat night, whatever, I'm listening. And I'm here for you.
[ Action ]
And inside the sports gym, the pair can be found. They have a few airbeds blown up, but there's more that still need airing up if you pop in straight after their message. There's also a tremendous amount of pillows. If you want to help, get blowing, and make these airbeds look nice and comfy!
The transgate from the standard coach has mysteriously been moved to the sports gym's outer hallway. Who did that? But it makes it easier to bring in the cups of hot chocolate from the kitchens, and for anyone who wants to bring snacks to do so. Take a seat, remember to bring your sleeping bag and whatever else you want. Plushes, your own musical instrument to offer some de-stress medication of your own with a melody.
And there's an area where small incense pots burn away, a gentle mist rising up. It won't heal the mind completely, but it will offer it some peace. And if you're worried about nightmares, a few of Raven's sachets and teas are available.
So come get a mom hug. Come and offer hugs. Just come and get something out of the company, whatever it is. Tidus and Della - and others - will be here to give a hand.
The life you had might've been fake, but the people around you aren't.
((OOC: consider this a mingling post, where everyone is free to tag everyone else! be the comforter, the one offering comfort, both, whatever!))

Cerbie lets out a few joyous squeaky barks, bouncing in a circle for a few moments with his entire plushie butt just wiggling while his three tails going crazy. Then he bounces toward Ryo's lap, struggling a few times to climb up with his small poofy legs. Just don't mind his damp paws!
Once Cerbie's up into Ryo's lap, he goes to investigate the interesting thing in Ryo's pocket that was yelling at him earlier! Hello, new friend! Please allow him to curiously sniff you, as is customary among his plushie species. And maybe a few friendly licks to the top of your head!
no subject
Which is when Ryo simply picks up the puppy and puts it back down on next to him, on his other side. "That's Lagos. He..." How to describe him to a puppy? "...likes his personal space." It isn't necessarily true, but it's the best way to make peace (and keep Lagos from yelling in a quiet space) for now.
no subject
It's getting easier to figure out who the owner of this cute plushie might be, if only because the plush paws mimic a passenger's flaming feet almost perfectly... and hey, here he is now, coming in with a fresh batch of hot chocolate and tea in piping hot mugs!
"Hey, Ryo, and... Cerbie?" Zagreus asks, blinking a few times. "I'm pretty sure I closed the door when I left. So how did you get out?"
Cerbie perks up immediately, his tails bumping rapidly against Ryo's legs as he pants out his excitement. But he's going to stay put! He promised Lagos he would!
no subject
Ryo's protests die down, and he goes for his (spilled, cooled) tea instead. If Lagos and the puppy are going to talk, then they'll likely be okay, as Lagos doesn't get upset and start yelling about something. He looks up at the greeting and blinks. "Wait, is he yours?"
Lagos pauses for a moment, considers Cerbie's excitement, and sighs. It's fine. Go say hi.
