Cabal Arrives At The Cafeteria Uneventfully
While Cabal found that not being able to hear very well was uncomfortable, he figured his current ability was good enough for everyday life. It would be troublesome if he were to get into a fight in this state, however. The damage to his ear drums did a number on his sense of balance.
He spotted Mira waving at him as soon as he entered, and nodded in greeting. She was by herself, it seemed.
"Hello again, Mira," he said, taking a seat across her,
"I hope I didn't keep you waiting."@ViannaNightSuba Tries To Stop Crying Since It's Obvious She's Just Making Things Worse
Suba choked back another sob. Crying wasn't going to do anything but annoy her, and she was supposed to be apologizing!
"I-I'm sorry," she said, subdued and rubbing at her eyes.
"I-it's just me. My sisters always said I was too much of a cry fingerling." The mermaid took another second to gather what composure and (imagined) dignity she had left, and took a deep breath.
"A-anyway, I just wanted you to know I'm sorry, for however much that counts." A quick bow, and Suba turned about and quickly walked out of the classroom, knowing that she probably couldn't do anything to make things better, and hoping that she'd be able to make it up to Katherine someday, but not before mouthing to Charles a quick "Thank you" as she brushed by him.
She'd apologize to Cabal and Einar next, when she found them. They were probably in the cafeteria, anyhow, which was perfect since she was starving; not to mention good food always helped her cheer up. She followed the directions she was provided with and got to the cafeteria without incident. The place wasn't as lavish as her home's kitchens, but the smell of food was warm and attractive, and urged her to take a deep, savory breath before entering.
She spotted Leo almost immediately, and gave a timid little wave towards him. He was counted among the people she had hurt by accident as well; with him being one of her first friends here, she was a little anxious -- like Katherine, an apology might not be enough to make up for what she'd done, and she wouldn't be able to bare it if he were to walk away from her as well.
