[Video]

[ 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!))

"We can do both," he spurs on, but only for the fun of it, to give Inigo something to laugh or be tickled by. Because he does hear the sniff, the grasping for affection, and he wants to push away the sadness. A grief neither of them - none of them - deserve, but they always have to push down, try to ignore.

If with jokes and laughter. If with the company of each other.

And without making Taiki sad, which he'll concede to, without any actual argument necessary. "Alright - no toilet smashing. But a reeeally big ball of candy floss?" Oh, oh. He's tugging Inigo away from the ICP console, turning them towards the aisle. "Let's see how big we can get it! One giant-- massive pile of it! On a stick!"

There's that pesky tray to think of, but he'll figure a smarter way of dealing with when it comes into view, just sitting there - by sticking it into his arms band, of course.

(Rumors say that tray is still stuck somewhere in Tidus's arms band, even to this day.)

But he's easily tugged along by their joint hands. Tidus could take him just about anywhere in this moment, and Inigo would move right along. He's just way too weak to the moments where Tidus is just being so sweet and affectionate with him, after all.

"I can't believe you usually make fun of me eating that stuff, and now you're trying to stuff me full of it." It's said with a smile though. It's a fun joke, one he likes - to a point where he can feel any and all heaviness lifting from his heart already. "I'll definitely need your help with this one though!"

"You bet you will - eating it!" Tidus chirps, and just for Inigo - for his mood, to keep it just as light as airy - he swings their clasped hands at a ridiculous height, letting them swing back as they will.

"We can always get help if we're not up to the task. Can you imagine? Walking back into the gym with a candy cloud half the size of a room? And that's got to be the minimum," he directs. "If it's not massive, it's not a real cloud! Everything's bigger the closer you are."

Expect this wonderful sound-filling commentary on their way to mayhem. Tidus knows how to blab to take out all silence from a room.

Thank the gods for Tidus's mouth that runs way too easily. It's definitely a godsend in this situation.

Especially since the scenario is kind of dumb to imagine - such a huge cloud of candy floss. To a point where it might just fill up an entire room. It wouldn't be past what Tidus is capable of, considering how he's caused chaos in carriages before with Gibbers..

"You think all those tired people in there will be up for a cloud of candy? I think they're too tired to even think about eating it."
