The sky shines differently today than it did yesterday

[Perhaps to the surprise of no one, there is no after party after that trial. Two children were dead. Two children were dead over a simple accident and the Wizard cared more about himself than anyone else. But they won't give up, they can't give up. They had to keep fighting until everything's been set right.

At the Lobby ofrenda later that night, there are six origami pieces accoupling the other memorials. A penguin, a rose, an octopus man, computer, a music note, and the last one are of a boy and girl holding hands. Along with that there is a plate of strawberry cupcakes with blueberry icing and a note that reads:]

There is still hope and love in the world

Never let The Wizard make you think otherwise 💗

[Anyone trying to track down Hester to get into her office immediately post-trail isn't going to have much luck. Her office is locked and she's nowhere to be found. But that doesn't meant she didn't keep her word.

The cart Rina had been laid out on is parked right by the front doors, exactly how they'd left it a few hours earlier with one exception: Rina is not alone. Laid out next to her with a bright yellow sunflower laid across his chest and wrapped in a grey-blue shroud of fabric just like his girlfriend is Varian. There's no signs of blood or physical trauma, just two kids ready to be put to rest in that lovely garden outside.]

the cart :)

[Benjamin finds the cart waiting by the front doors, but when he sees the second body laid out on the cart, he drops down to one knee, then both, reaching out and running his hand over Varian's shrouded head, and letting out a soft gasp when the touch confirms that the body is solid. Real.

His other hand reaches over to touch Rina's body, fingers tightening in her carefully-swaddled shroud, and he bows his head over the two children and just.

Sobs.]
