Meeting adjourned. Feel free to finish the refreshments in the break room. One of the downsides of being so short was that Raivis was oftentimes the last to leave the conference hall, opting to sit back and wait rather than risk being crushed by those larger nations. By the time he left the room, the last bottles of water and mini sandwiches would be gone, not that he was missing out on much. Minutes passed - a longer wait than needed, admittedly - and the only people left were those who liked taking time to discuss their notes or iron out details for future meetings. Raivis slipped passed and out the door, stretching as he walked, craning himself to try and spot either of his fellow Baltics among the nations loitering in the lobby, maybe even take his chances with talking to Berwald or Francois. Someone friendly- His eyes fell on a door to a smaller meeting room, one that he knew was being used by the micronations. Every meeting, they booked a room. Every meeting, someone made a joke that Raivis should be at the "kid's table." Every meeting, Raivis forced a wobbly smile and a laugh that left him ever so slightly more deflated. He walked towards the bathrooms, veering off course, checking over his shoulder to make sure no one was watching. God, if someone saw him actually go in, what would they say? He shouldn't even care what they would say, but words had power, and if he lost what minuscule crumbs of respect people begrudgingly offered him now... Leaning against a wall as casually as he could, he waited until only a few individuals were left, and they were much too busy chatting among themselves and parsing out dinner plans to spare Raivis any thought. Coast clear enough, he cracked open the door and slipped inside.
