As the members of Team Theta gathered at the appointed time, Ritsuka and Da Vinci could be seen at the head of a large dining table in the center of the room; it was set for three at either side, and one to the opposite of the Campus Director and Technical Advisor. Each place was assigned with the Class Container Identification Card, so the assembled six would take their proper places.

At the left side, Saber, Archer, and Lancer would be sat, while Rider, Caster, and Assassin would be sat on the right, and Berserker would be sat at the butt of the table; opposite of the Director and her Servant. Upon taking their assigned seats, they would be greeted by a capped silver platter, and a strangely delicious hodgepodge of scents from the hidden food stuff.

At the head of the empty assembly hall, sat at the podium, was an odd [url=https://i.imgur.com/JOUgjnl.png]young woman[/url] that looked like someone made an arctic wolf into an anime girl. Before her, a three-tier wedding cake was crumpling towards her, as she chomped on it - occasionally poking a bite at her little, snowman doll that had all the interest in eating that an inanimate object could possess.

“[color=FF7900][i][b]Ahem...[/b][/i][/color]” Ritsuka cleared her throat, as she stood, “[color=FF7900]Welcome, Team Theta, to your last supper. Before we begin, please, eat. Da Vinci-chan went through quite the lengths to have your favourite dishes discovered and prepared,[/color]” she smiled, warm and welcoming, despite the unwelcomingly melancholy look in her eyes.

“[color=5865f2]Hehehe~! I got all of your bellies down to a science![/color]” Da Vinci smirked, looking rather proud of herself. “[color=5865f2]It's expertly home-cooked and catered to a T, so you better enjoy it![/color]”

Ritsuka chuckled, though her eyes drifted to the empty seat of the Assassin.

She was still in the ICU, and it was growing increasingly uncertain if she was going to make it out... What was she going to tell them, when someone, inevitably, inquired about the empty seat?

If she could have afforded to wait, she would have, but that luxury was dead and done. She had to move, hope, and pray her Assassin Master would make it through before the mission started...
