I'm ticked off, yeah. Everyone saw two of them were 'traitors' and the other didn't care. Also, it's weird one of them died but they're sure it was one of us that killed them.

We all slept through everything that night. There were people both in the theater and in the church when Aventurine and Death were found. [...] We can't blame ourselves for things out of our control. But I think it's okay to be upset about it as long as that anger doesn't drive you. You know?

All of their stuff is gone. I was going to bring it back with me.

Do you think if you ask the overseers they'd be able to reclaim it? They have to have an idea where they're disappearing to.
no subject
They sat there and had us do all the work.
[ remember yesterday and that 75-25 trust split? sounds like it's the opposite for caelus and the overseers right now ]
