Coral + Tiger's Eye

Through the doors, you find yourselves in a small circular room that seems to be decorated much in the same way as the ring is decorated today. The curtains are in alternating colors of your teams, and in the center stand are three surprisingly lifelike, but faceless sculptures. They stand with their backs to one another, facing out to the chairs. About each of their necks is a cord that holds a sign written in a fine, looping cursive.

[I AM JUST GOING TO CRY ON YOU and be glad that Ferris isn't here to see me be unladylike]

[will let her, while running his hand up and down her back soothingly :(a]

[there is probably some very quiet blubbering of Allen's name]

Oi oi. . . it'll be okay, y'know?

I don't like it, I don't want to be here, I want to go home ...

[firmly, but he keeps his voice low]

You will. We all will, one day. In the meantime, keep your chin up, okay? You have us.

[snuffling, but still leaning into the hug]

And we're not gonna let anyone hurt you or anyone else, got it?

But they've already hurt Dragonfly ...

[pauses]

I know.

That's not right and that's not fair at all ... !

I know.

[stated firmly]

And we'll do whatever we can to make it right.

"We" ... ?

We're a team, right? We work together.

[silent, contemplating that]

S'not always easy. But we do it, anyway.

[curling her hands a little in his shirt a little :x but not moving]

[rubs at her shoulders and doesn't say anything else]
