THE TOWN SQUARE.
[Page silently watches the church burn for a little while, once she's emerged safely from it, before turning away and heading to the town square to meet up with everyone else. It makes sense to rest here, as they did last week, after another town with another tragic story to tell.
At least that time, however, they'd all survived it unscathed.
Once she's made it over to the group, she drops her pack onto the ground and collapses next to it, staring at her feet. It's going to take a bit to...process all of that, and while she'd love to get up in front of everyone and make some kind of rousing speech, she just doesn't have it in her at the moment.
Instead, she'll look up from the stone of the square, eventually, casting her eye over everyone and saying (almost to herself)-]
...I hope everyone is all right.
[That is likely far from true, but...well. They're all alive, Wesker is dead, and that's something. She's trying her best not to look at that little tree-sculpture with the key around its neck.
OOC: Second verse, same as the first! Here's our post-event mingle post, to talk about what the hell just happened in there, lick our wounds, and beg forgiveness from...from Flower Girl. Top-level away; Page will have her own up, if you'd like to talk to her.]

flower girl
She hesitates momentarily, before she silently reaches out and puts what she hopes is a comforting hand on Felicia's shoulder here.]
no subject
Ah. Felicia's smile is a little...tired, but it's still there.]
...Thanks, Emma. I really, really appreciate it.
no subject
[Emma actually manages a genuine smile of her own here before she turns her attention to the flower girl sculpture for a moment.]
Do you suppose it would be alright if we tried making a few flower accessories ourselves while we're still here? It might help pass the time a little until we have to set off again.
[They can leave a few as an offering to flower girl here. Maybe she would rest easier, that way?]
no subject
[Felicia honestly thinks that'd be a lovely idea; they didn't know much about her, but maybe, in a way, they could honor her memory a bit.]
Come on; let's go get some flowers, then. I'm sure we'll make something beautiful.
no subject
[And thus, Emma is going to lead the way to the spot she was talking about, and sure enough, there are plenty of nice flowers that look like they can be used for good flower accessory material. She finds a spot to sit on the ground here, looking for all the world to be in her natural habitat (and maybe it is, in a way) as she holds up a few flowers picked near her.]
What do you think of these ones, Felicia?
no subject
Felicia wants to believe it is. It'd be way too sad otherwise.
But either way, Felicia's looking around at the flowers herself--so many choices, so little time--and perks when Emma asks about the flowers, before nodding her head brightly.]
They look perfect. They're nice and colorful, too--they're gonna look so pretty once we get them woven together.
[Felicia's perusing through the flowers herself and picking a few--some of similar colors to the ones Emma picked, but ones she thinks will go well. She'll present them for Emma's appraisal, though!]
What about these ones? I think they'd go really, really well with the flowers you picked out--or should I grab some different colors? Oh, we could make it really colorful with enough flowers...
[Felicia trails off there, though. She does tend to ramble a bit...]
no subject
Oh, those are lovely choices! I think they'll blend together really well, using these colors with these breed of flowers...
[Time to try to use what they learned from flower girl to weave them together, huh? Emma's thinking a flower crown, and maybe new bracelets...]
no subject
[Felicia beams in kind, before getting to work. She's...well, still a little bad at this, honestly, but she's nothing if not determined to make them look right, dangit.
...Still, Felicia will look over to Emma while she works, a little more contemplative.]
...How are you feeling after today, though? It got kind of hectic towards the end there...
no subject
... I'm disappointed, I guess. We might have learned some things from this experience, but it somehow doesn't feel like it's enough.
[And well, the demise of flower girl of course.]
no subject
[Mmm. It still kind of sucks to think about, honestly.]
We really kind of are on our own with this now, and going in blind. It's definitely more than I think anyone was expecting...
no subject
[Despite... everything Wesker decided to be, they had a good bit of teamwork going making sure nobody died at least!]
no subject
I think so too. We have to, at this point--we need to put a stop to the Shimmer, once and for all. And as long as we all have each other here, and we stick together...I think we'll be fine.
