TEAM MEETING Who: Everyone Where: Butterfly House/common room When: Night of arrival What: Team Meeting Why: There's stuff to say.
Kiriko stood at the head of the room, in front of the unlit fireplace, arms folded across her chest as she waited for the last few people to settle in.
"Before we start," she began, eyes following the last of the kitchen stragglers as they entered the room. "I just wanted to say... I was wrong, that time. Running away wouldn't have gotten us anywhere. But, I don't think that fighting would have helped, either. It was a mess, and I'm sorry for my part in it."
The apology was sincere, but her posture vaguely defensive as she scanned the room, waiting either for someone else to speak up or for enough silence to pass that she could move on.
