[look yuri's not here to give her non-garbage to eat!!]
Still? I think some of the dorms have painkillers stocked... We ended up using a ton of ours last night, though. [literally the majority of the dorm injured!! hate it!
that said, both her face and her emotions are radiating doubt.]
[she might be annoyed, but her annoyance is mostly directed at everyone involved. futaba and hope really tried to yeet themselves into danger just like that]
Ichiro said that he managed to calm down after all that. That he was back to normal, felt bad, that sort of thing. I'll probably try talking to him later.
Yeah... it sounded like he's been through some brutal stuff. He talks about it like it's nothing, but there's no way that doesn't leave a mark on somebody.
[she's just been dissecting her cheesecake into smaller pieces, but she'll finally eat one of them.]
Spirits and gods can use magic of a kind, but humans who can wield it are pretty rare. And even then, it's only things like being more spiritually sensitive, not summoning fire or lightning.
Where I'm from, humans can't use magic naturally, but we have technology that lets us borrow power from other sources. [she points to the choker on her neck.] At least, that's how I typically managed the whole "fire and lightning" thing.
"Typically" as in... that's how it worked for ages, and then something caused the entire nature of magic to change dramatically, so we can't do it that way anymore. I still wear this all the time, but the core's actually totally defunct.
The formula was something I'd been working on for years, with a few tweaks, but once I had that down, it was just a matter of applying it on a large scale. I'll admit I kind of got lucky on a few fronts, though.

Manwol blinks, and then she shifts to the side to let Rita pass.]
...If you're getting dessert, then can you tell me how it is? I can't decide.
[OBVIOUSLY!! because she's been looking at SALAD OPTIONS!!]

...Sorry. My ribs are killing me. The pain is terrible.
[she looks at the cheesecake on Rita's tray, she's intrigued despite being depressed... she'll get one of those too. it's like half a cake.]

Most of the people in my dorm are still injured -- and the ones who weren't went ahead and got injured last night too.
[she's just gonna get a cheesecake, she no longer has the right to criticize rita for her food choices]
Better to save those painkillers for the next time they try and tackle Denji to the ground.
no subject
annnd there are a bunch of feelings that surface when she mentions denji, there. concern, alarm, guilt?]
That idiot... I still can't believe that happened.

[Rita ur discomfort]
...Has he ever acted like that here before?
no subject
He's usually just an oblivious doofus, and while I've seen him get serious now and then, it still wasn't anything like that.

[taking a bite of her cheesecake,]
He fights devils and zombies, right? So he's probably used to having to fight for his life.
