Avalon wasn't sure what surprised her more, the lack of Preston's name being called or the sight of her other brothers in the crowd. When had they arrived? She would have to wait until the ceremony was over to greet them, however, or she'd risk being rude and interrupting.

Miya would nudge Ali and lean close.
"Must've been hell for those students. Mad respect for what they did."

Rhona acknowledged and received her award with the modesty and formality her mother instilled in her. Victory was not quite won that day but she did her duty. That was all she would do at this time.

Dime clapped at each brave and dutiful soldier tat went on stage. Fought for their lives and became something she wished she could one day achieve. In the crowd she noted a familiar helm on a woman and to her own shock... Maya was here.
Dime had last seen the woman on the day she kidnapped Dime's brother. She took. Step towards her but stopped seeing a calm and content expression. Dime was unsure of suddenly making a scene about her presence but more so she was wondering if Maya was here to cause more trouble. She stood back and would keep. Watchful eye in order not to ruin the gathering.

In the beginning she had seen Preston being carried away from the festivities. Without reason she followed only until it was obviously going to be near not worth the risk. Heavily guarded and stern faces made certain to allow unwelcomed attention like hers a quick trip out of here. She itched to know where they might have been going but she wasn't a Runner without worry now. She had better things to do than poke her nose in where it could be chopped off.

Soni very shyly walks up, then very quickly returns to being another face in the crowd, as fast as possible. Along her route she spotted that girl that didn't like her.
Oh, great...

Pride without bound, Triton marches where commanded! In the crowd before him, he sees the hair of the golden sun, and it brings a smile to him! With a great joy, he waves at her!

Gene applauded everyone that was announced, admiring their bravery.
Surrounded by people, Gene could not yet spot anyone she knew. Of course, she only knew about 6 people outside of Aedria.

Triton waved catching her attention. She would wave back giving and to congratulate her friend.

Preston would be able to note his energy was calm and maintained at a very high level. He himself smiled when he saw Preston knowing full well who he was at this point.
"Well, you are the one from the communications device, yes?"
Ali would note there were several people in black suits standing around like guards, but only near her. They were spread out, but definitely not through the whole stadium.
President Asiv would lead the applause to it's end with the final person standing for their rewards. He would sigh and shake his head.
"Moving on from that... We wish to give recognition and time to those who didn't survive the battle... And those who will never be the same."
Asiv would begin going down the longer list of deceased and permanently crippled Cabal soldiers and Zekunft Blackwater civilians. A projector showing their faces happy, smiling, and doing what they loved to do.

Ali scowled at the woman ribbing her, wondering who she was and how she got hired at a guard who couldn't even keep still during a formal event. She'd have been thoroughly embarrassed and reprimand if she'd done that growing up.
"I'm sure all who were there went through a great deal." She grit her teeth but forced her voice to be even. Hopefully this wasn't going to be a long ceremony.
Her focus went to those around her in black, looking for familiar faces among those who stood near her. No one else seemed to be dressed as they were, and she wondered if going home would start as soon as the honors were over.
She bobbed her head ina solemn show of respect as the projector played, the sounds of laughter and smiles that it showed them a far different cry than what she remembered at the FOB.

Valerian watches, recognizing a great deal of those faces.
Tears brim at his eyes, but he refuses to look away. He'll make sure he sees them all, as it was the least he could do.

Joy's jaw tightened at the sudden display of sound and smiling faces. Some of them, she recognized, though barely. The faces of a people that had been left down. The horror on their faces as their ghostly after image continued to live through their last moments stuck with her.
She clamped a fist over her heart with a small, silent bow at the waist, holding it for a few seconds before sitting again.

Donovan's jaw clinched and his fist squeezed so tight around his chair he broke pieces off. How many died because they couldn't complete their mission.
