Rem arrived in the hotel lobby with Eren in tow and bags in-hand. Just in time to overhear Kalen making suggestions. She joined them silently. She’d know where to go. But she remained distant. She couldn’t imagine having fun right now! Not when she couldn’t see a single street not damaged in the attack. She flashed a glare at the punk for the stubborn! remark.

And he answered with a grin.

Even in the face of destruction, even with the possible loss of his home, he grinned.

And suddenly, it was easier to smile. To see the colors. Her home needed them, yes. Things were changing, yes. But her siblings and friends needed care, too. They needed some…

Warmth

”I know a spot,” she said, her words crackling tinder. ”It’s not too far from here.”



En route, Rem brought her phone to her ear.

Brrrrrrr

Brrrrrrr

Br-

Yuki? Hey, I’m with the others. Wanna come with? Yeah, I wanna talk, too. We’ll be at-””



A couple of blocks down the road- a fair walk for the tired young folk, but not enough to exhaust, brought them to a disused manufactory. It had been intended to produce components necessary for Eden City’s transport system, which was no longer functional. It sits, unused. But there’s a ladder onto its roof. Kalen can make it up, with some help.

The factory has a second floor, but only for half of the building. The other half was horizontal and faced with a big, blank wall. Someone- probably an enterprising teenager- had set up a bunch of chairs and stashed a projector here. Hidden under the eaves of the roof were coolers of drinks! Or…

Had Rem…planned this?

”It’s time for a showing of the Unitan favorite!” she declared, popping open the second to reveal bundles of chips and sweets! The projector flickered on, bright enough to be seen thanks to the shadow of greater buildings beyond it.

"Loveless!’

Of course- Rem’s favorite.

She cracked open a soda and offered it to her brother alongside a rum-and-coke for herself.

”What we have to do right now is heal,” she said. ”And healing needs rest. No emergencies right now. You, me- the lot of us are here.” She nodded to Ny and Eren, whom she shot a smile. "You fought with us when you didn't have to."

Fun? Sitting down? Mission accomplished!!

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬



                                          Hearing Kalen's words made Ny's heart sink.

                                          "Hey wolfboy, you're far from useless so don't talk like that okay?"

                                          She said quietly, bopping him lightly on the shoulder and smiling down at him reassuringly. She hated seeing him dejected. "And I have a proposal I need to talk to you about, actually..." She added. "It's about your SeeD training...but we can talk about it later, I promise"

                                          Outside the hospital in the bright sun, Ny looked curiously to Rem as the girl mentioned that she knew somewhere they could go...

                                          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


                                          "Wooooow Rem! This place is so cool!" Ny exclaimed, turning in a circle on the spot and gazing around at the disused factory with wide eyes. She loved the mystery of abandoned places. "Great call" Then, just for fun, the girl cupped her hands around her mouth and shouted.

                                          "I LOVE IT!"

                                          The sound reverberated around the empty room, echoing as if many Nyale's were there shouting back. She giggled. "Sorry, had to..." She shrugged, evidently not sorry at all.

                                          She had never heard of the movie itself, but was excited to watch it on the projector. It was definitely a unique place for a movie showing. With that, Ny was quick to raid the coolers for a bag of chips and a small bottle of cheap wine, which she popped open and sipped straight from the bottle, immediately scrunching up her face at the sharp taste.

                                          "Hear, hear!" She raised the bottle at Rem's comments about healing and resting. They all deserved some chill time. No emergencies, no drama...just youthful fun. She smiled warmly back at Rem, appreciative of her final comment about their contribution to the defense of Eden. She's a good leader...just like her mom... Ny thought to herself.

                                          "What are friends for? You would do the same in Winhill, I'm sure" The Sorceress replied simply, contentedly flopping down onto a chair, eager to watch the movie and relax. She reached up to twist her cap around so she could see the movie better.

                                          "Just for the record wine does make me pass out pretty quickly so apologies in advance if that happens. Just give me a shake" She said, popping a few chips in her mouth. "I've never been good at staying awake during movies anyway, Kalen will confirm. I'll try my best though, since this is a UNITAN favourite" Ny winked at Rem.

Status: Reducing Stress. Failing.

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━═✥═━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓

Yukiko had been idly bandaging her hands when she got the call from Rem. Her eyes hovered over her phone, reaching out to hold it. Her thumb hesitated to answer, not knowing if she was in the mood to talk to anyone. Knowing things were hard on Rem, just as much as they were for herself though, she did eventually answer. "Hello? Oh, okay! I'll be there as soon as I can." She said with as cheerful of a tone she could muster, before hanging up and sighing.

Great. Socializing.

Even though it was a meetup spot to hangout and spend time with everyone, Yukiko could not find the ability to put herself at ease without her gear. Ever since she got drunk and was caught without her weaponry, it made her feel naked, and vulnerable. "Not anymore." She thought to herself as she got herself cleaned up, finishing her patch work on any bruises, cuts, and the bleeding on her knuckles. Afterwards, she put on a pair of her combat gloves, skinsuit, leg blades, a pair of jeans, a pocket switchblade, and a brown neck sweater. With everything on, she prepared to do a bit of makeup, masking up any bruises from the blows she got out of sparring with the bot. She didn't need anyone being concerned about her over something so little.

And quite frankly she could do without the questions about her health. That was all people were asking her these days, and it was getting annoying to say the same thing over and over to them. Fine, was all she was ever going to be at her best, and at her worse, well, those were times spent alone with herself.

---

By the time she arrived, everyone else had gathered and set things up, seated and drinking from the coolers, The movie had already begun to start, Yukiko able to see the projector light from the distance on the building as she approached the site, making her way up to the second floor.

"Sorry I am late everyone! I'm here now." She said cheerfully, smiling to everyone.

She listened well to his reasoning and understood his answer. She did not love him in a manner that would require a knight to have to stabilize him. Sacrifices shes was willing to make, but then, there were certain ones that just went too far. "I understand."

But her expression changed as she listened to him say he was a bad father, and just as quickly as he seemed to fall into that mindset, she placed her hand on his chest. "Now, you know as well as I how much you love your children. Whether or not you are afraid of Raeka, I believe you should put your faith a little more in him. I did, putting my trust in that boy to keep my daughter safe and loved by giving him my power."

She had fallen unconscious after that event, unaware of what he looked like, only getting the reports of what happened, and what Mai had told her upon awakening. Still, despite that, he proved to have control of himself, at least for now. She lowered her hand from Salem's chest, saying one last thing before letting him go. "Don't be so hard on yourself. You put the weight of the world on you because of the power you wield, but you're still human, so lean on others more instead of going at things alone. Even parents need someone else to shoulder some burdens."

"You misunderstand. I have faith in him, just as I do in Mai, Ny, Marem and Marianna. He is lucky to have Mai, she keeps him leveled, sort of. But my ability to mentor and guide him in his powe has come to an end. I do not know what he can do now, and that frightens me. At least when he was a sorcerer I knew most his potential..."

Thr man took a breath, retempering himself. "Thank you for the talk. It was good. Probably something I needed. If theres anything you need Zeigmus, let me know." It was time for him to leave. He may not carry the entire world on his shoulders, but he did carry a substantial amount.

FAMILY REUNION

”Over there, pinkie.”

After the man had assisted with Kalen climbing the stairs, Kalen’s arm was draped over Eren’s shoulder and the larger man helped hoist the blonde to a seat next to Nyale, nudging Kalen in the ribs with a wink. It only allowed Kalen to turn pink again in response, mouthing an insult towards that man as he settled into the seat of the couch that he found himself in. ”If we’re watching Loveless…again…I think it’s time I started having a drink. I’ve watched this enough with Rem to last a lifetime.”. He grabbed Rem’s rum and coke with a grin, drinking it with a face twisting at the unexpected flavor. It might have come to a surprise from everyone, as Kalen had never dabbled with alcohol or even the recreational drugs that Rem and Nyale found their ways into, only supervising as the sober one. He smacked his lips, thinking. ”Um…interesting.”. He looked at the others before rolling his eyes at Nyale. ”Youd better stay awake. I’m not going to answer your questions if you fall asleep this time, I swear.”. He was doing his best to move past what he had been feeling, understanding Nyale and he would speak later.

”Yuki!” Kalen called, tapping the seat next to him, already a little red in the face from the sips he had. ”Come, come, my darling sister! No stress! Grab a drink and RELAX!”


Eren only shot a grin at the smaller man, taking a seat on a beanbag in between Nyale and Rem, partaking in a vodka seltzer and a sandwich. ”Ah; love da movies. Only heard the music for dis tho, never seen the whole flick.”. His eyes flashed over to Rem, checking on her before focusing on the others, flashing a wave to Yukiko.

Status: Trying. So hard.

Rem blinked in surprise when Kalen grabbed her drink out of her hand and took a hearty swig. His face- and maybe the surprise of seeing her big brother touch alcohol- made her laugh. She grabbed the rum bottle and poured into the cup she’d intended for Kalen, turning the soda into another mix. ”Take it slow, hero,” she advised with a smile, before she heard the door below come open. Yukiko could see the projector image glowing on the far wall, a square of color slowly growing more vivid as the machine warmed up. The trail of light pointed to the second floor office, just in time for Rem to lean out the window.

”Up here!” she called.

She greeted the girl with a hug when she reached the top of the stairs.

”I’m sorry I’ve been out of touch. How are you holding up?” she asked in a quieter voice; just the two of them while she guided Yukiko to the coolers.

In a couple of minutes, everyone had seats and Rem was playing bartender, mixing and serving drinks. As the girls had found out the other night, she was well-acquainted with cocktails, and her mixes had a kick! The old office was intended for a manager to look out over the factory floor and monitor progress. Now, its desks were shoved to the side and the room taken up by a myriad of chairs, from scavenged office chairs to bar stools to bean bags. Rem took a seat in an old recliner like a throne- goodness knew how anyone got it up there! It felt like a kids’ clubhouse, in its way.

”To better days,” she offered a toast, a hint of sobriety working its way into the moment.

And then, there was nothing to do but enjoy. Rem heaved a long, quiet sigh as she leaned back in her seat. Felt like she was sitting for the first time in days. The stormclouds swirled at the edge of her mind, trying to work their way in. There was work to be done- more, more, more- every second counted!

Eren caught it. He saw the weariness showing itself. But at the same time, he didn’t get the feeling she was faking all this.

She caught him looking. Her exhaustion turned into a gentler smile.

”I got to see it live, once. In Deling City,” Rem told him as the opening score rolled over the credits. ”It’s my favorite.”

Soon, the movie was rolling. Rem, who for all the world looked like she ought to pass out in her seat at any moment, was glued. She watched the tale of the hero Alphreid and his beloved Rosa with every ounce of rapture as when she was a preteen girl watching for the first time. If anyone were to look her way, they’d see her mouthing lines.

”There is no hate, only joy
For you are beloved by the Goddess
Hero of the dawn, healer of worlds~”

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬



                                          Ny's eyebrows shot up in surprise at Kalen drinking alcohol, and she smirked wryly at him. "Well, well. Who knew that to get fun-time alcohol Kal all it takes is seriously maiming your whole body. I'll remember that in future" She teased, sipping on the wine.

                                          "Heeey! I said I'd do my best. But point taken" She whined at her friend's comment about staying awake. The girl contentedly settled down onto the sofa beside Kalen, making herself comfortable. A quick glance at him showed that he was already going red in the face. Oh boy, this could be messy... She contemplated, amused. Well, if he gets too bad it won't be my head on the chopping block... In other words, if Nona found out it would be Rem in trouble, no doubt.

                                          As Yuki entered the room Nyale gave an excited wave.

                                          "Yuki! My lovely, where have you been? I missed you" She called out, her tone affectionate.

                                          She had been worried about the girl too, having neither seen nor heard from her since the battle. Seeing what happened to Koyuki must have been so traumatising for her... Ny thought, a little sadly. She hoped Yuki was doing okay. Perhaps later we'll get chance to talk... She reasoned. It was with a jolt that she also suddenly realised that out of the group, she may have been the only one to actually speak to Kal and Yuki's parents since the fight, given how tightly Koyuki was kept locked up now.

                                          At Rem's toast the Sorceress dutifully raised her wine bottle.

                                          "Better days"

                                          She truly hoped better days would come for UNITA, after everything that had happened, and everything that was still happening in the world. A barb of discontent stirred in the girl as she recalled the news from earlier. A part of her was still keenly aware of the space-station boy sat beside Rem, subconsciously wary of him. But she took another drink and tried to put it all out of her mind for now.

                                          Finally Ny relaxed, laying back on the sofa and watching the movie roll with interest. She rarely watched full movies, not really having the patience to sit through the lengthy run times, as Kal would know. As the film progressed she quietly peppered her blonde-haired friend with questions about the plot and the characters, trying to keep track. Before long the wine bottle was mostly empty, and Ny's cheeks were flushed. Everything began to feel fuzzy and warm, and the moving pictures began to get increasingly blurry in her vision.

                                          She leaned over and let her head rest on Kalen's shoulder, eyelids fluttering sleepily.

                                          "Kal...don't scare me like that again, 'kay...?" Ny mumbled, seemingly out of nowhere referring to her friend's injuries.

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━═✥═━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓

Hearing everyone's replies and greets to her made her feel warm, though, Nyale's in particular set a slight warmth to her cheeks, giving a more genuine warm gaze in her direction as she returned the wave and replied. "At the Training Facility." That was all she would say in regards to that. When Rem came up to her, leading her over to the cooler to get something to drink, Yukiko ended up taking a soda to drink, preferring to avoid alcohol this time around.

Maybe as the night went on, she might have changed her mind, but for now drinking wasn't on her mind. When Rem leaned into her to talk quietly to her, she replied simply. "I'm fine. Don't worry!" She said, giving her a cheerful grin, but in reality she definitely was far from okay mentally. But at the very least she could enjoy company among friends and family. Before Rem moved back with her to the couch, Yukiko gently reached an arm out, pulling her in for a hug. "Love you." She muttered before she walked over to her brother, seeing his condition surprisingly in good health, all things considered. When he noticed Ny and him getting a little closer, she felt less inclined to sit by her brother, instead leaning into him to give him a kiss on the head. "Glad you aren't completely fried. Would be bad enough with what brain cells you have left." She teased him, giggling slightly before moving back from the couch.

She glanced over at Eren, a boy she wasn't quite familiar with, but Rem seemed rather chummy with. Glancing between the two, and then Nyale and Kalen, she felt the need to take a seat by the window, watching the movie from the side as she took in the cold night air. Then the movie played out, and Yukiko idly remained quiet, very little stir or noise was made from her, and what times someone might have caught a glimpse of her or her expression, she appeared to be calm, though it was difficult to tell if she was really enjoying any of the night.

FAMILY REUNION

Kalen could only roll his eyes at Nyale and REM’s comments, continuing to sample the drink that had been procured for himself by himself at the expense of his sister. ”Look, I think I’ve earned this.” His face looked over at the two of them and cackled a little, continuing to drink and slowly turning redder. The film continued and he answered all of Nyale’s questions despite his warning, a large and warm smile on his face. Of course he would answer questions. It was Nyale and who was he to not give in to her in a regular basis. It only forced him to stop as her head found its way on his shoulder, silently freezing at the contact. Slowly, he moved his arm around her to make his position more comfortable but mused silently at her statement, looking her over. Her silver hair, red face…she wasn’t kidding about that wine. ”wh…me? I uh…”. He paused to try and collect his drunken thoughts, ”I’ll try my best. But…I’d do that all over again if it keeps you safe. I love ya, Nyale, you know?”.

The drunken state didn’t even blush at the words that came out of his mouth, squeezing her gently. m sorry I worried ya though…”. He hiccuped.


Eren sat, observing Rem. At least she was having a good time, and was actually unwinding. She kept making him drinks, to which it only fueled his grins and teasing towards everyone in the room. Kalen and Nyale were chatting about whatever, and one of the famous songs from the film began to play. Eren’s own face was red, but his face focused as he stood up and offered a hand to Rem. ”I’m cashin in”. He grinned, pulling her up into his arms. One dance.

Rem Estellise La Faustina Nipal

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Status: Trying. So hard.

Rem shared one more, tighter hug with Yukiko. As complicated as their family was, they were sisters. The Trabian girl had been through just as much as Kalen.

"Love you, Yuki," she murmured, the two audible only to one other.

Rem continued to serve throughout the movie, refilling cups and mixing drinks. These inclided her own, ensuring she was soon red-cheeked and buzzed as a bite bug. She was lost to the movie soon. Enraptured, 'til Eren stood and offered a hand.

The young woman blinked at his hand, then up at him. Her long eyelashes fluttered, and Eren Kyng was treated to the sight of Remington Nipal caught off-guard. He saw the comprehension dawn across her face. Her cheeks turned red as her hair! But the music of Loveless washed over her. The image of Alfried offering his hand to Rosa stood tall on the distant wall.

She might die tomorrow.

Rem's hand touched his.

"Oh!" she gasped as Eren pulled her up into his arms! In an instant, she was looking up at the handsome Estharan SeeD, his arms around her. And she smiled~

Rem's grasped his other hand and placed it on her waist. That one went to his shpulder. The other hand held his.

Kalen Rae Vicaria knew his sister. Hell, he knew the movie's routine by heart! They'd practiced dancing together a thousand times. Rem was terrified to dance in front of others, meaning she had always been only a practice partner for him. However, he knew how deeply she longed for that chance.

"Someday, I'll dance with a handsome prince. He'll fall for me at first sight, and he'll sweep me onto the dance floor, and it won't matter how many people look. Even if the entire world turns against me, he'll stay by my side."

Remington Estellise La Faustina Nipal stumbled into Eren's chest. She stumbled because he stumbled, unsure which foot to lead with. She grunted, looked up at him...and smiled.

"One. Two. Three," she murmured, guiding him through the steps. "One. Two. Three."

In moments, Rem had them moving in a simple, swaying pattern. They circled and spun within the confines of the old factory office, out of the way of the projector. While at first she had to lead, Rem subtly guided her partner through the steps until he was able to follow them on his own. Before Eren knew it, he was leading Rem through the steps of a dance he'd never practiced. She leaned her head on his chest. Flushed, drunk, exhausted- none of it mattered.

For a little while, Rem smiled.

          Lost in skies of powdered gold
          xxxxxxxCaught in clouds of silver ropes
          xxxxxxxxxxxxShowered by the empty hopes
          xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxAs I tumble down, falling fast to the ground


          I know I'll wither, so peel away the bark
          xxxxxxxxx'cause nothing grows when it is dark
          xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxIn spite of all my fears, I can see it all so clear

                                          In her inebriated state Ny was beginning to drift off as Kalen was speaking, but she caught some of his words, which sounded distant and muffled even though he was right next to her.

                                          What did...he just say...? Couldn't be... She thought, confused. Her wine addled brain couldn't make sense of it. She felt his arm around her, squeezing comfortingly. She opened her eyes slightly, spotting Rem and Eren dancing. They twirled around the factory like a fairytale couple. It was a sweet sight to behold.

                                          He must be glad his sister found someone special... She thought. She peered up at him for a moment, a hint of uncertainty in her eyes. She wasn't an idiot. She'd seen how he looked at her at times.

                                          Kal deserves someone special too...but I'm not sure it should be me...

                                          Rather than address what she thought he'd said, or any of what had just run through her mind, the girl instead mumbled something incoherent and allowed herself to sink into sleep, the wine taking over, beginning to softly snore.

                                          Coward...

                                          It was preferable to facing any situation that involved real feelings, or any conversation that she wasn't ready for. Still, there was a knot of guilt in her stomach.

                                          Sorry, Kal...I'm always running away...

                                          Surrounded by her friends, Ny slept the rest of the movie away.
