[It feels so uncomfortably hollow, how they're all expected to just go back to living normally after the death of a friend. It's fucked up how Varian has come to almost expect the routine- the death, the investigation, the trial- so to completely bypass that makes it feel like there's still more yet to come. The other shoe hasn't dropped despite the Balladeer no longer being with them. What he'd heard the Wizard say about him still echoes in the back of his mind.

Varian won't be very easily found on Thursday, mostly because- like many others- he's seeking to be alone. He will be in the Cafeteria briefly to find something to eat- a snack from concessions and a soda, definitely...nothing constituting a real meal, which might ring as a concern- before disappearing again.

Where he's actually going is the Scene Shop. He hasn't been there in a while due to his working on the car, but...he's here most of the early day, sitting among the parts and tools on an overturned box with a little chunk of wood he'd cut in his hand. He's not wearing gloves since what he's doing is more delicate work, the healing scar on his left hand visible when he turns it over to get the chisel he's scraping across the wood into the right place.

It looks like he's carving something, but it's in the early stages. Too difficult to make out what it might be just yet.]
