graduation x3 + (...?) (cw blood, food, gore)

Who: Emet-Selch, Five & Klaus Hargreeves, BARiTONES, Taisho Roman Revolution, certain criminals
Where: Mitsukoshi Ginza
When: Day 512, afternoon

[ BARiTONES and Taisho Roman Revolution will find themselves receiving invitations via cell phone to visit the Mitsukoshi Ginza for a ~*~*special graduation*~*~! Once more the terrace of the 9th floor has been redecorated for the special lads, and the theme is red.

Red carpet, red ribbons, red tablecloth, red cushioned lounge chairs, red confetti, red flower hedges, red, red, red. Heck, there's even a fancy fountain river that runs through the whole terrace before pooling at a humble sized square pond and that's red, t—

Wait.

. . . Oh. That's. Blood.

That's blood.

. . .

T-the wine is red too, and there's plenty of it. The available mugs for fancy drip coffee are red. Red velvet cake. Red meat, cooked anddddd nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnoooooooooot hhhhhhhhey some of these tables and chairs seem to be made of things that are red but not things that are wood or metal or normal table material. Hey. Heyyyyy. . . ?

W . . . who is this graduation for!? Who wanted this. Like it is a Hell graduation but also!? Also!?!!? Isn't this a little too Hell-like already!?!?!

Well. Well!!!! At least there are normal sections of terrace to hang out in. They're even elegant. Fancy drip coffee and wine, again, but also fancy donuts and other breakfast options too. Fancy!!

. . .

Also . . . ? There are coin-operated horse rides, except some of them aren't horses, some of them are birds. Red birds! Phoenixes? Honestly they look kind of shitty and the music that plays from them sound horribly dissonant but on the other hand they seem to work perfectly fine without coins. So there's your entertainment!!!

At the far end of the terrace is the usual carpet to graduation doors, along with a clearing where three microphones stand for anyone who would like to make a speech or do a monologue or a performance or something. The blood fountain river crosses through here so be. Be careful. ]

My Sight and his powers have been useless before already. Don't be too quick to place so much trust in us.

[He squeezes his hands.]

Yet my trust you have. And if sight and power is not enough, our allies shall surely provide what aid they can.

We are not alone. Nor will we face the future problems alone. A hope I have not felt in eons.

Though I understand your misgivings. Emet-Selch's soul does not belong to this place, nor should it ever.

It really shouldn't.

[Squeezing his hands in return, a little too tight, for a little while]

... It's not that I want you to panic. Quite the opposite. I simply don't want us all to end up in a trap we could have avoided.

[He doesn't mind, it's sweet?]

That is a valid concern, certainly.

I suppose it's up to me to figure out what I can do about it. You two see things differently.

Your perspective is always valued. Nor should you feel the need to do things alone.

... Well, so long as you know of my concerns. I just think we should be very careful.

I will take your words to heart. And I do share your misgivings, on the shackles to our souls.
