"I think there is some beauty in death." Leo interrupts, gesturing to Eli with fork, "I mean, yeah, the parts that make them who they are are gone - Memories, thoughts, feelings - But, in a way, they are immortalized in the fact that all of their worries, fears, troubles, if any, are gone as well. It's sort of.. peaceful, I guess is the right word." Having never experienced death in any way herself, it's odd she can speak as though she has."Its sad, sure, but I think it's a different type of beauty that nobody really likes to address that much."

Trevor couldn't keep up with the conversation and observed Merchese's young son instead of spending his energy trying to put things together from bits and pieces he understood.
Santi's body language showed no affection for his father. Rich families always had issues in dramas, and perhaps so did their real life counterparts.

August caught Trevor looking off and tried to bring him into the conversation."So Trevor, what are your hobbies past the creepy crawlies? What do you do for fun? Ever gone to the shooting range? Now that's a a grouse time!"

Trevor - "Ah. I enjoy going to live concerts. Nihon has great audiences and it is very energetic." Trevor said "live concert" from the pseudo-anglicism 「ライブコンサート」 not knowing "concert" by itself was more common, but it didn't sound too odd.

Sophie stayed silent after Jason started talking about cadavers. She didn't like discussing death, and thought it was immensely inappropriate in such a setting. She was relieved when they seemed to change the subject.

Eli- "Sooooo, concerts."
Courtney- "Yeah, all that death talk was-"

Chloë- "I can't stand this anymore! Why--why would you think death is beautiful? That's just-- I can't..." Wilhelm- "Chloë, please! It's just--" Chloë- "No! I just-- I can't be here right now!"
She sniffled back tears, and ran out of the room and down the hall. Wilhelm- "Forgive me, perhaps she 'hass had a difficult time tonight. I will see to her."
He excused himself and followed her down the hall at a more casual pace. Marchese- "Wellll... I think this would be a good time to clean up, hm? I apologize for the ignominious end to our lovely conversation. Why don't you all have a rest in the library before the party begins?"
Chloë scampered down the hall and through a door, Wilhelm followed as though he knew exactly where she'd go. He closed the door behind himself, for anyone who thought about racing after them.

"...." Well, that outburst did wonders for his discomfort levels. Quinn sat silently for a moment before looking around at everyone who was still assembled. He looked over everyone else's faces, seeing if he was the only one who was seriously concerned now after that.

Ru- Ru had thought all of that talk was quite inappropriate for the dinner table, and probably inappropriate talk in front of potential backers and children, but had not considered it outright offensive. Rather than say anything, he had chosen to steer away from entering the conversation, and played with the rim of the wineglass instead, staring into the depths of the wine as if it held all the secrets of the world. His plate remained empty."...My apologies, on my companions' behalfs." Ru offers the two gentlemen, and rises to enter the library, his clean plate shining neatly. He felt hollow inside, but thus was the nature of his art.

"What did we say? Do you think she'll be okay?" August rose to go feeling a little sick, he hated seeing people like that.

"She...she should be alright. Everything will be okay, August." Even as he said them, the words felt false on his tongue. Normally he would have been more acerbic, more blunt about things...but it just didn't feel appropriate here. He quietly rose to follow Ru out.

Courtney- "... ugh ..." Courtney desperately wished she had a better read on this bizarre situation. This was supposed to be her game - making connections. What was happening? She followed the others out. Eli- "Oh man, that wasn't... um, damn, man. Yikes." (ORIGINALLY...) " ...."
Eli was mortified. He had no idea Chloe would be so upset over the topic. Perhaps death was not the most appropriate subject, but the conversation had been brief and the focus was merely artistic. Regardless, he would need to make things right. Somehow...
Eli joined the others at the library.

((Uh, oops. Can we pretend the was a couple of posts earlier? Little late on the draw there.))
((GM EDIT - Actually, that seems like a good thing to say after lil' Talulah ran away and as people are beginning to leave the room. I'll leave it here.))
