C'est la mort. (Open)
Date & Time:Tonight, around 7.
Location:The viewing windows.
Characters:Anyone who knew Peace or who might stop to pay respects at a memorial even if they didn't know her.
Summary:A memorial gathering for an Exsile who ceased to exist with the most recent world change.
Warnings:Tears, cursing, bitterness? Not sure yet. People can label threads as they come up. Everyone is free to make their own and jump around. Prose and action are both fine.
It's a waste of emergency torches, but there are a few set up around anyway, lit that soft unearthly blue of emergency lighting. The flowers are paper, clumsily folded from discharge sheets, some from the prison, some from the clinic. There are no photos. All of the ones she was in before are empty spaces, or pictures of Stanley or others who'd been holding her at the time. The music is strings, playing softly from a haphazardly tossed tablet. There are no chairs. Instead, every pillow from 144 is on the ground as seating.
Stanley isn't sitting on one, though. He's standing at the window, staring down at the planet so far below. Today, he's combed his hair. It's still in his eyes because it's too long, but he's made the effort to tame it at any rate.
He's not sure how to start things off, but if someone shows up he'll greet them. That's what you do, right? So that's what he does.
"Thanks for coming."

[ Kates gestures around them, to the memorial he's set up for Peace. ]
It's important to remember.

It's hard.

It is. [ Especially at the start. ] But don't forget you're not alone here.
[ Nill, Peter... the ones who came. It's not just about Peace, it's about Stanley, too. ]
no subject
It's never a good idea to admit that you're the guy who doesn't have friends. We'll. no friends in this millennium anyway.]
Thanks.

You're welcome.

Take care, Stanley.
[ This isn't the place for any other conversation, so she'll take her leave for now. ]
