More or less. Down to chance if it'd work though.

I gambled on Russian roulette and lost. [He shrugs]

[deicider]

[EYEBROWS]

You lost your soul?

[fiberoptic]

Turns out I'm a bad gambler.

[That's all he's gonna say on the subject.]

[deicider]

[eyes a little wide, but they can hear the undertone there and don't press.]

... How is Heart Soldier doing, in general, after that?

[Avante's kids seem.... fine? But Cardigan's not stupid enough to put stock in that.]

[fiberoptic]

Some are worse than others. Sparkles is fine. Spidey and Mori weren't in the game as long, but I'm pretty sure there's something they're not saying.

Abi, he's so quiet it's hard to get a read on how badly this affected him. Hurricane and Hiryuu seem t'have gone through the worst of it.

[He believed in Hiryuu's ability to recover from this. Hurricane... was going to need help.]

[deicider]

[hmmm.]

What do you know about dealing with trauma?

[fiberoptic]

I don't think whatever I do is textbook, exactly.

Christ, I'm just dealing with the symptoms at hand. Keep'em comfortable, keep'em busy...

[deicider]

[Snorts.]

You have more ideas than me.

[fiberoptic]

We should get a book. Teach'em to meditate or some crap.

[He's only half kidding]

[deicider]

[Cardigan also seems to take that suggestion seriously.]

That's not a bad idea. I wish everyone had had the sense to vote for the library.

[fiberoptic]

A few more rounds of soul-sucking trauma and maybe we'll earn one.

Or more likely we'll end up with that cafe some moron keeps pushing for.

[Let's see how the soup is doing]

[deicider]

[rolls their eyes because a cafe would be STUPID.

How's it doing; leaning in to peer.]

[fiberoptic]

[Gosh it's simmering beautifully. Wire is honestly surprised.]

...Huh. It didn't fuck up.

[deicider]

[Lightly,]

You're welcome.

[fiberoptic]

[Small smile]

All right. I'll defer all credit to you for saving this meal. My children thank you.

[deicider]

[Smiles back.]

Thanks for the talk. I'll see you later, Wire.

[fiberoptic]

[Nod,]

Take care, Card.
