Wafit #
After confusing Teran to take a much needed nap, Wafit made his way back to the main common, where he unsurprisingly found Reteh and Lina helping Chyla clean.
'''
Wafit: Is there anything left to clean?
Chyla: I hope not. I think once we get the last bit of polishing done, everything will be finished, finally. I've been cleaning non-stop for hours. I don't think I've ever been so sore in my life.
Wafit: You learn your lesson?
Chyla: I learned that the moment I rolled Ki-su over and realized I knew absolutely nothing. All I did by rushing to him was cause real help to have to stop and calm me down before she could help him... That and the whole not abandoning the person you're supposed to be protecting thing... I still have mixed feelings about that, though. I know I'm supposed to not prioritize fellow rammu, but calmly watching your family die is not something I was prepared for...
Wafit: *somber* Me either... It's not something I thought about when signing up to be a rammu either, since I wasn't expecting to be accepted there was a lot of things I didn't consider, and to be honest I'm glad I didn't, because they would have scared me away. I'm not going to lie and say I'm anything less than terrified about losing those I care about, but I'm grateful to have a chance to know, protect, and cherish those I have gained from becoming a rammu. Speaking of where's Yi-su, isn't she supposed to be helping?
Lina: Jsha, especially since helping was her idea! *stunned* Nee-nee-neet that I mind helping at all. *awkward laughter*

Turning at the sound of the door opening, Wafit watched as a ragged Yineh walked in and collapsed on the couch.
'''
Lina: Wh-what happened to you?
Wafit: Take note of the scent.
Lina: *sniffing* *blushing heavily* Oh~ *epiphanic* H-hey! You were supposed to be checking on Ki—then helping!
Yineh: I went to check in on Ki-su, but Viv didn't want me coming in, so I went looking for answers elsewhere. After getting my answers, I got a little distracted. Anyway, give me a couple minutes to rest, then I'll do the rest of the cleaning myself to make it up to you guys.
Chyla: In a couple minutes, we'll be done, and hopefully asleep.
Yineh: Alright, I'll make it up to y'all tomorrow in spades. *perverted smile*
Lina: *pouting* Nee thank you.
Yineh: Awe~ come on, Li-li don't be mad... Okay-okay I'll make it extra up to y'all.
Lina: *coy* If you want to make it up to—me, then you'll have to agree to not interrupt me and Vi-su for the next phase.
Yineh: *disgruntled* Fine~ I deserve that. I should have at least came back to let y'all know I wasn't going to be back for a while. And how about the rest of you?
Reteh: Next ti-

Turning his head back towards the door Wafit stared in disbelief as a large black, cinnamon and rust-colored shelabara, a type of medium-sized bear named for their shellier multicolored fur patterns, wearing a rather large green satchel made its way into the common, bowed to them, then proceeded to sit down on a pair of the largest cushions in the room and gesture wantingly at an empty teapot.
'''
Yineh: *unamused* Okay~ maybe I had a little too much fun tonight, because I'd swear to the watcher a shelabara just waltzed in and is now trying to get tea... and there are several important reasons why that's impossible.
