ღ don't need cars cause we've learned to fly on saturn

[The Galactic Building is certainly one of the odder places to spend some time at, but it seems to be what some have agreed to do. It'll be interesting, if nothing else; a place that originally served to remind them of how far they were from home, being a place they willingly stayed at? It was almost unthinkable, but here we are.

Once the ordeal is finished, Camilla and Ignis are once again off into the kitchen; a long day like this deserves some good meals to go along with it. The stuff they have to work with is certainly...interesting, if nothing else; hopefully nobody minds eating vegetarian tonight, because that seems to be what the menu is comprised of tonight. Hopefully nobody minds eating their vegetables!

Get some rest, everybody; it's been earned after all that's happened today.]

I would imagine not, especially at this point.

[ She answers that with a detached look of sorts and a shrug, rubbing out her green eyes while Saber walks behind her, Miphanus would be walking too but then tbh he's kind of big for the hallways at this point, mostly in terms of width and bulk. ]

...You doing okay? I know that whole thing took a lot out of everyone, what with Saturn and Dialga both. But y'know, I guess Cresselia was right. Feelings can't go away forever.

[ Mmm ] To be honest, I'm still furious at it. The red chain, applying it to people - it... it does give us some answers, but it seems even more inhumane, somehow, than we already knew. As if casting Stasis on the heart itself...

[ Right down to it being chains.

She exhales. ]

Yeah, Saturn was pretty desperate. Can't blame him, almost, even if I also really, really can.

How could you not? Did you see that vision too?

I know he screwed up bad and basically decided to fix everything by totally ruining it. I just think maybe something should've happened before he got to that point. I mean, it's sad, isn't it?

Of course it is sad. I had known it was before now, and I had been more forgiving of him before now, but... even so. [ Even so, to go back? To do experimentations on people? To do that to the Elite Four? She... ]

... Even so, evil does exist.

Yeah. And it's there and it's terrifying. And even if someone knows what they're doing isn't right, they get in too deep and decide to just go whole hog, huh? Least that's how I read it.

[ That might be too generous, or it might be true. Who's to say? ]

It's a conflicted feeling, yes.

I know there's evil. Lots of it. And most of those people just double down an' get worse. Not all of 'em. It just takes a change of circumstance. And maybe some stubbornness and good luck.

'Course, I'm also not just gonna walk up to Cyrus and dare him to do something good with his life. That's just not gonna work.

[ It won't, and... and it all feels so circular, so perhaps she's channeling the spirit of Kayneth to say, ] Maybe that David Bowie can save his soul.
