Renji and Daemon are both dead. If you made it inside last night, then you saw them.

I don't know what happened, but I thought everyone should know.

[thecamellia]

I'm sorry.

Are you okay?

- Tsubaki

[lighthearted]

Guess so. It's not your fault, though.

[thecamellia]

No, but I'm still sorry. And you must know it's not yours either.

If you want to talk about it, I can come find you. Or just if you want company.

- Tsubaki

[lighthearted]

I know it's not, but I still wish I could have done something, you know?

Sure, we can talk.

[thecamellia]

Yes, that's the hope you always carry with you. But we'll get stronger. One day this won't happen anymore.

All right, I'll see you sometime soon.

- Tsubaki

[lighthearted]

Thanks, Tsubaki.

[thecamellia]

No thanks needed.

[she_is_ruin]

Don't cry about it. You know he can bring people back from the dead, right?

[lighthearted]

That doesn't mean he will.

[she_is_ruin]

Better for your pals if he doesn't.

[lighthearted]

Why would you say that?

[she_is_ruin]

What, you'd rather your friends live on here, under Landel's thumb? That's pretty twisted, isn't it?

[lighthearted]

That's better than being dead, isn't it?

[she_is_ruin]

You really believe that?

[lighthearted]

I do.

[she_is_ruin]

Well then, I suppose you'd better hope he's feeling merciful and brings them back here.

[lighthearted]

Scott? Did you know them?

[vstheworld]

No. But I made it to the Institute last night.

Who were they?

[lighthearted]

Me too.

Friends of mine. Renji was. I didn't know Daemon as well, but he was still a good person.

[vstheworld]

I see.

This doesn't happen to bad people nearly often enough here.

Though, I dunno if I'd even want it for them even.

[lighthearted]

Yeah, I don't think I would have wanted to see that no matter who it was.
