EPILOGUE

Epilogue

After all is said and done, in the wake of the void and sprinting through one final door.

You come out into light. Sunlight actually, a backyard in what appears to be a typical suburban town, if you're familiar with those. The sun shines cheerfully overheard, blissfully unaware of what everyone has went through. And this is everyone, as faces you haven't seen in weeks tumble out in one pile from a basement door.

Happy Saturday, everyone.

There's plenty of reunions and catching up to do, but you've utterly left Aira Niluc behind you after seven long weeks. And through the window of the house which looks like it has seen a better seen better days is one wall mural that reads "And they all lived Happily Ever After".

[[ Happy Golden End everyone, you've earned it! There's still the matter of sorting out where to next, but everyone is whole and alive and without button eyes. Using the knowledge from the object Phil had and the beldam's magic, they can also now world hop only one side effect...the portal that opens to everyone else's worlds here? Is made entirely of pixie dust. Everyone's powers will also restore fully over the course of the next few hours. ]]

[ tbh he probably kind of is because that's just how Anime Exhaustion works.

He blinks, still a little out of it, and it takes him a few seconds to realize that he really is seeing her here, and not some button-eyed imitation. ]


Oh... Yor.

[ ...It's only been a month since he last saw her, right? But it feels so much longer than that. ]
laytorest: ([Fret] There’s a present)

Are you okay? Do you need water or anything? Do we even have water?!

[Looking around frantically.]
biqe: (tomorrow he's older than today)

[ Honestly, water would probably be good, but he's not sure if they have any either, and he's not going to send her on a possibly hopeless errand as soon as she's come back from being dead. ]

Mm, no, I-I'm all right, thank you. I just wore myself out a little using all those artes is all. I... suppose I'm a little out of practice after going more than a month without using them.

[ That's a lie, but whatever. ]
laytorest: ([Embarrassed] “Sorry; sorry; I’ll let)

[personal profile] laytorest 2021-07-20 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
Artes... That's magic, right?

[Trying... to remember... gosh it's been so long.]
biqe: (the boy who could only give her less)

[personal profile] biqe 2021-07-20 11:12 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, right. It's a more general term for any sort of special named attack, magic or physical, but it's all magic in my case.
laytorest: ([Determined] Let me show you)

[personal profile] laytorest 2021-07-20 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
So now you're just tired from exerting yourself? Do you need more sleep? I can leave you alone to rest!
biqe: (you'll fake it if you have to)

[personal profile] biqe 2021-07-22 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
N-no, it's fine. I'm mostly recovered already, and I shouldn't need to use any more artes for a while.

[ So he can rebuild his CC gauge just fine!! ]

And anyway, it's... been a while since I've seen you.
laytorest: ([Smile] from TSUKAYA)

Oh- I guess that's true! We only saw the living side during trials, or from those strange windows just this past week.

I hope the cookies tasted alright! Nageki baked them so I could decorate them for you!
