"Sorry, I'll get back to hauling. do we still need what's on that list or did you grab most of it?"
He hands you the list, with several items remaining.
: C'mon, let's get this over with.

Walter views over the list and his mind begins to regain its focus

"Alright."

Walter heads off to retrieve more supplies


Elu shrugs.
: She told me to "forget about it". So I did.
Cualli gives him a look similar to one that you might give a friend who just made a terrible pun. "Right. Literal," she sighs in a sarcastic tone.

"So what do you think of her?"

Jaakko turns his back to the group and looks at the extremely faint outline of Svirask against the last light that is coming over the horizon. He rests his head in his palms and tries to justify his decision and Matsumoto's death.

His breathing is slow and deliberate.

He tries his best to reason his way out of his guilt, but he can't convince himself of anything.

Walter assists Virvel and Frisk in acquiring the rest of the items on the list. Upon completing their task, the three hop over to the armory to take a squiz at what's inside. Walter picks up a few guns and other trinkets, but on the way out is approached by one of the Aesthian personnel who asks what the three were doing in there.

Frisk pulls you aside and takes your place in the conversation, fabricating a lengthy story to explain while you're there. It does the trick for the time being, but you get the distinct impression from his tone that you shouldn't risk another visit.

Everybody present at the camp spends an almost-sleepless night assisting with what they can, before flying back to Valhalla the following morning. It is now around 9 AM, and everyone is back at base, but those who went to the camp are operating with less than 2 hours sleep.

Walter has seated himself in the messhall, along with a cup of coffee he looks at the far wall while he thinks to himself about the previous day.

Ellie finishes getting ready for the day and heads to the mess hall, she looks around to see if anyone else (besides Walt) is there.

Yui follows shortly behind Ellie.

Cualli is gathering up her food on a tray and glances around the mess hall, looking for someone she recognizes.

Walter has seated himself in the messhall, along with a cup of coffee he looks at the far wall while he thinks to himself about the previous day.
Virvel takes a seat next to you, and Frisk on the other side of her.
: What's up, man? You manage to get any sleep yet?

Cualli is gathering up her food on a tray and glances around the mess hall, looking for someone she recognizes.
Raiden are all eating together, as usual. Musashi and Yamashiro look utterly exhausted, and Nagato is resting her head on her arms, apparently asleep at the table. Xiaomei, however, looks no worse for wear. At a different table, Pansar and Kommandant are seated; and at a third, Eremit, by himself.


Tippy was also present at Raiden's table, sitting across from Nagato. She had spent most of the camp visit supporting them. Tippy had her sketchbook out and was falling asleep face-first into her doodle.

Graf walks into the mess hall to get some food, grabs the meal, and looks for where to sit down. He decides to sit down next to the one sitting alone, maybe figure out who these people are some more.

Jaakko follows Tippy to Raiden's table. He brings with him a tray with a single-person box of cereal and box milk, along with a circular cut of prefab scrambled egg and oily bacon. His eyes are tired, and his coordination and posture also show it.

Matsumoto's death and his role still bother him.

Yui heads over to sit down with Raiden, after grabbing some food. Noting their expressions, but somehow not noticing that Matsumoto's not there, she chooses to remain quiet for the moment.

Ellie gets a tray of slop and water and sits down at Eremit's table without saying anything.
