-Jenna-
Jenna entered the the Council's meeting room, and took a quick glance around the room. Though normally a chipper little old woman, today Jenna shared the same heaviness as the rest of the town, the heaviness of fear, confusion and mourning. Jenna had not known Mary Aylmer extremely well, but she still felt the pain from the loss of a member of Arryn, as she would for any member of the supernatural town. There was a certain level of unity throughout the town that was brought on by the secret all of the town's inhabitants kept. With the murder of Mary, Jenna feared the sense of unity being questioned if the feelings of frustration and sadness gave way to feelings of distrust and anger. Jenna had always felt a sense of motherly love towards all the citizens of Arryn, and she worried about how the town would handle this horrendous murder of one of its own. Jenna glanced behind her to make sure Rose was still following her, and found the girl staring off into the distance, lost in her own little world. Jenna chuckled as she realized that at least that was one thing that would never change- Rose would always be ADD and off in her own little world. Jenna grabbed the girl's hand gently, snapping her from her daydreams, and nodded her head toward two empty seats close to the front, near the Council members' chairs. They took their seats just as the Chairman of the Council began to speak. 

-Rose-
Rose silently followed Jenna into the packed Council chambers. She vaguely remember being is this room a couple times before as a child, but she could not place the memory. Rose shrugged her shoulders to herself as she gave up on placing the memory, off in her own little world as always. Jenna had taken to calling it "Rosie-land" but had given up on trying to stop her constant daydreaming when a five year old Rose had replied, "Yeah, but it's ok, everyone knows me there." Jenna had laughed at her cute and clever response and decided that Rose would always be off in her own little world. 

Rose broke from her daydreams only long enough to taken in everything and everyone around her. She had not known Mary very well, but it was still nerve-wracking to know that someone could so easily murder a vampire as wise and strong as Mary. Rose took note of each of the Councilmen, and the people standing close to them. Rose wondered how the Councilmen planned to address the murder. Jenna grabbed her hand, breaking her from pondering the meeting just as Rose noticed the head of the Vida coven and head of the D'finn nest nodding at each other. Rose ignored it, following Jenna over to the seats she had found.
