The Dining Room

The dining room is fancy and blue, that's for sure. Plants and small props litter the room, as well as an odd painting on the right wall.

MX-Z0: As MX-Z0 and Rue came back to the Dining Room, they found it was now empty and messy. The head just...lays there, surrounded by the food Tarnish and Rue worked so hard on...

...And in the disgusting wooden floor, partially covered in vomit, MX-Z0 saw small drops of blood leading into the kitchen.

"...Huh. The blood is still wet...this must have all happened very recently-"

Sob. Sob.

...Was that the sound of someone quietly sobbing in this room?

Rue: "It's coming from under the table." Rue commented, quickly bending over to check under the tablecloth...

Seven Stones: ...And there was Seven Stones. Caught in his own little world, sniffling and softly sobbing. The guilt seeming to have consumed him whole.

Rue: "...Oh."

Well. This was awkward. Rue has zero idea how anyone deals with things like this...they just walk off, letting MX-Z0 handle it.

MX-Z0: Oh boy. Two in one day...Not that she minds.

Scooching down under the table, MX-Z0 sits next to Seven Stones.

"...Greetings, Seven, Are you doing alright?"

Seven Stones: "Sniff, sniff...I-I was the last one to see her...before she..."

He sobs a little more and MX-Z0 wraps an arm around him, patting him on the back.

"It's...It's all my fault..."

MX-Z0: "...Seven, I believe that there was no way you could've known. It's not your fault she died...you had no idea."

MX-Z0: ...But at the same time, she's nothing his words. The last one to see Gust alive...

"...Did you see her last right before you came to the party?"

Seven Stones: "I-I did...didn't see anything weird then...augh..."

Rue: Meanwhile, Rue couldn't help but notice that dumb radio was still playing...blasting music. He shut it off.

(...Hm. If Gust happened to shout anything, we wouldn't have heard. This music was incredibly loud.)
