Ritual of Destruction

[hearnoplague]

[ So, Kallamar was going to just burn the conques Lobelia left behind in the Seagull cabana, but apparently that's a bad idea.

So instead, he just brought them all in a drawstring backpack and invited people to do as they wished with them. Happy destroying! ]

(OOC Note: The shells will release whatever sound was stored in them upon destruction. Have fun with that. )

In a way.

[Having the question turned back on him, he supposes he does.]

There is something beautiful about completion, don’t you think?

[idologue]

[ She has to mull that one over for a second. ]

... yes, I suppose there is.

[ Meeting the person who completes you, fitting into each other like two halves of a whole. That can be beautiful. Coming to an end of your choosing, a grand finale you've set up for yourself? Lobelia would have considered it beautiful. Lacus can't. ]

But beautiful things can be tragic, and even painful.

[skyworp]

For who? Not him.

[Despite how gruesome his end was, Lobelia seemed to welcome it well enough. Though, perhaps there’s something he missed.]

Does it matter otherwise?

[idologue]

... to come to the conclusion that you can never achieve happiness except in death is certainly an answer to find, but...

[ Yeah, she's not convinced this isn't tragic for Lobelia as well, even if he hasn't fully realized it. ]

You're right that he did not want differently for himself, but as his friend I wanted better.
