[ The drone does a little spin before going right on back through the portal as it closes behind it. Maybe it's because Charles is asking but either way Europa gestures with a hand. Lead the way. ]
[ Maybe there's pens at omegamart??? Okay I've been enlightened yes there are Omegamart branded pens. Charles's pen specifically has one with hearts circling omega.
Europa looks at the offered pieces, then reaches out to take them. He will write. Looks back at him. Okay now what. ]
anyway, he takes the feather from europa, before placing it in the jar with his feathers, one for each of the dead. then, he strikes a match and drops it in the jar so that the feathers can burn safely, as shouxue once demonstrated.
he closes his eyes, as though praying.]

[ I was gonna say, Sidon and Ashe also died but I would be understanding if only our small women got the ritual. You all were doing so well and only killing men.
Anyways, he takes a moment to watch this for a while but he'll eventually cross his arms again and close his eyes. Is he praying? Who knows. ]

it's hard to say if charles is, since his mouth doesn't move. and truthfully, he's not praying in any conventional sense—he's not a particularly religious person. in the end, all he can do is send his ambiguous wishes into the great void, hoping that the dead find peace.]

he writes down something on one feather, before handing the pen and another feather to europa.]
I wrote down Shouxue's name on mine, so you can write Sheba's on yours.
