[Alessandro can be seen off in the corner of the room. He is curled up, his arms around his legs and his head tucked into his knees. He's softly crying.]

(OOC: This is backdated to the morning after the ghost was defeated and everyone went back to normal.)

I-it happened to a lot of people in Discedo-san though! It's not your fault... So, so you don't have to cry over it. Really, I'm sure everyone understands!

I-It was still s-scary.... I-it's hard not to c-cry.

[hatshatshats]

B-but but... It's over now! It's going to be okay, really...

video

[sancta_sedes]

I h-hope so....

[hatshatshats]

It will! Just be positive... it'll be okay. And nobody will hold it against you...

Wh-what if it h-h-happens again?

[hatshatshats]

I think people would understand... I-if that's not how you normally act, and you're sorry about it... I don't see why anyone would be mad!

[sancta_sedes]

I-it would be r-really mean if p-p-people were mad....

video

[hatshatshats]

I don't think they would be...

[sancta_sedes]

But, i-isn't it harder to f-forgive yourself than f-for others to do it towards you? Though, th-that's not really what's s-scary in this s-situation....

[hatshatshats]

B-but shouldn't you be able to forgive yourself for things you can't control?

[sancta_sedes]

I-it's not that I c-can't... it's that... i-it's scary to th-think about. I-it's scary to th-think something like that c-can happen to you.

O-oh... Ah. A lot of things about Discedo-san are scary, but we all just have to try our best to make things better! Maybe then it'll stop happening!
