Suffering usually takes place when the people least expect it.

“About the suffering they were never wrong, the old masters: how well they understood its human position; how it takes place while someone else is eating or opening a window or just walking dully along.”

In the excerpt of the poem Musee des Beaux Arts, W.H. Auden expresses that suffering happens while others are just going about their usual, normal day—apathetic and not expecting it to happen. The poem painted the people indifferent to the suffering of others and just continued on with their daily routine.

"It’s called ‘Tropical Storm Debbie"; specifically, I consider that a sign of good luck, don’t you?" Which conjunctive adverb BE

miss Akunina [59]

Answer: Nevertheless

Explanation: Well otherwise would be the opposite of specifically, so it's not that one. Similarly isn't similar to specific at all so using that instead also wouldn't work. Incidentally just isn't the correct word you would use in a sentence like that so I would say the answer is nevertheless.
