Who: Students of Idris (OPEN - tag yourself in)
What: Impromptu gathering of friends who need to mourn the loss of a friend.
When: Sunset, Wednesday night
Where: Blitzball stadium
Rating: PG-13 (for language most likely)

Rocky only knew one way to deal with death. To respect it and honor those who had fallen from tragedy. But death had never been this close to him before. He had zero experience with knowing a living person and having them murdered close by. And the fact that another student may have been the murderer had his brain spinning. He didn't believe it was Jason. At least he didn't want to. But he knew how anger felt and the loss of control could slip pretty easily.

Rocky had to shut his brain off though and focus on something else. He had tried to help Hunter but realised she needed some space. Of course, her not letting him into her room didn't really help matters. So now he was busy, placing candles on the benches that surrounded the pool. It was busy work, which is exactly what he needed. Hopefully the gathering would help alot of kids deal with their feelings without putting their powers into a meltdown.

	"You know it" as Bella enveloped Pen in one of her fierce hugs. "This place is off the charts raw" her eyes beyond bloodshot by this point, her hand never leaving Pen's. "How are you holding up Pen?" not caring that her Welsh accent had kicked into overdrive by this point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ro had opted to go to the memorial to be a support to her friends. She hadn't known Julian at all, and the one interaction she did have with him went badly. Ro hadn't liked him from that moment and didn't care to get to know him beyond that. His remarks had rubbed her the wrong way. The Irish Faie wore a simple and modest black dress, the hem coming to just below her knees. She had pinned her Irish mourning brooch on her dress. It had been given to her before her mother's funeral.

Upon entering the stadium, Rose noticed Bella and Penelope talking together. Bella looked a mess, and Pen didn't look much better. Ro had only met the latter the other day, and she seemed like a nice enough girl. Fiddle case in hand, the redhead made her way to them. She placed a gentle hand on Bella's shoulder in greeting. "Hi," she said, her voice low and comforting.

	Bella gripped the papers with the translated lyrics since she had not decided on a song. "Hey Ro" her smaller hand squeezing Ro's in return. Bella's eyes spoke more than words could: this having been a very long and emotionally draning day for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Pen hugged Bella back firmly, rubbing her on the back before stepping back and looking over her friend. Bella looked a mess, this couldn't be healthy for her. Seeing how badly off her friend was allowed Pen to hold herself together, she had broken down once already today, she really didn't want to go through that again but goodness knew she probably would. But not now. "Are you sure that being here is a good idea for you? It'll only get worse." She said worriedly.

She looked over and smiled weakly at Ro, she had only met her the day before. Pen was struck by how fast things changed, yesterday Julian had been alive and slightly annoying, today he was dead and would be made out to be a saint. "Hey." She said to Ro, nodding in greeting.

	"Its a risk I have to take" Bella was honest. "Mum through it would be good for me to be around other people and since most of the house knows my powers have basically gone mega haywire I know people are looking out for me at the same time" she tried to explained. "That and I spent all afternoon in front of the common room tv till Z came to check on me". (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ro nodded, restating what she had written before. "I think it's a good idea, staying here. It's healthy to mourn with others, and it'll be a trial for your powers that you won't soon forget and will probably learn something from." She shifted feet, feeling a little uncomfortable. She wondered what it was like to be so perceptive to everyone's emotions. Ro believed she was empathetic, but not in the sense of a power. Bella must be going through hell.

"It's times like these that you discover your real friends," Roisin responded, giving Pen a small, appreciative smile. "When people decide to unite together for once instead of fight. Though, unfortunately, I fear there's going to be some big problems ahead." As a Faie, Rose knew that this was only the beginning. If the Therian boy had done anything... well. She didn't know what to think.

Pen nodded to what Bella said, if she thought that being here was a good idea, then it must be alright. When she mentioned Z, Pen cast a quick look around for the tall boy, almost without even noticing that she did. Z was bad off, Julian wa- had been his best friend. He wasn't taking the loss of Julian well at all, not that anyone was. "How did Z seem, when you talked to him, was he okay?" She asked quietly.

She looked over at Ro, seeing her with new eyes. The Faie girl knew much more of life and it's trials than Pen ever would, you could just tell by looking in her eyes. "I don't see how this won't start new fights. If a Therian did this, I have a bad feeling that the Faie will strike back." She said worriedly. She had read about the fighting that had happened before, it hadn't been pretty. If it restarted... who knew what would happen?

	"He was more worried about me, not a surpise knowing him like I do" Bella explained. "But that scares me too, Jess was telling me how shaky things are within magical theater. If things get worse it won't be pretty or easy" she mused. "Been using Doctor Who and music to stay sane today, even Rose knew something was amiss. She mewed this worried little mew" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Music is a good escape," Ro replied lamely. She had used it many times to express both happiness and sorrow. She didn't know Z, so she couldn't participate in that part of the conversation. She just listened quietly.

"The unfortunate part is that you're right, Penelope," Ro sighed, glancing around at the other students entering the stadium. "Some won't," she continued. "Lendie, for example. She's done so much work to create a unity between Therian and Faie. But others... there's no knowing, now, even if they said they were for peace and co-existence. An attack on one is an attack on all. They'll see it in the sense that a Therian broke the peace, and they have the right to retaliate." Ro, for one, wasn't going to fight. She would stand firmly by Lendie -- at least, she hoped the other girl would still keep her peaceful stance.

Pen let out a relieved sigh at that. "That's good then. I hope he's doing better than he was earlier." She had been worrying about him, Z was bad off. It was bad enough for her and she hadn't even known Julian all that long. Z was his best friend. "Oh, poor little Rose." She said sadly.

"What do you think people are going to do? Do you think that Lendie will stick with TFU?" She asked Ro curiously. "Or do you think she'll step back now that things are getting iffy?"

	"That is the scary part" Bella softly observed. "The rage levels are off the charts which is scary enough but its like there is so much darkness around Idris right now" as Bella played with strands of hair. She mused,"All the emotion is swirling around me, so much of it raw and rage filled". (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Yes, I can imagine that sadness isn't the only thing you're dealing with," Ro replied, her eyes continuously scanning the crowd. She had been doing that ever since the news hit. Watching for any Therian/Faie activity was keeping her on edge.

"I hope Lendie stays with it," Ro continued, turning to Pen. "She doesn't seem like the type to back down. And I'm glad because we really need this right now." A feeling of foreboding had been growing as they stood here talking. She would have to write her father.

"I guess the only way to combat the rage is by doing the best that we can to be happy, that's what Julian would have wanted." Pen said, trying her best to cheer up Bella. "And if things get too bad, I could always make myself happy and you can come hang out with me." She smiled sightly.

Pen didn't really know or understand what the problem was between the Faie and Therians, but she didn't want people to fight. "Yeah, Lendie is sweet. If anyone can fix things, it'll be her." She shrugged. "I think I'm going to go find a seat, will you be okay Bella?" She asked, before looking back over at Ro. "And it was good to see you again, Ro."
