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. ]]

[ Makoto tries to blink his tears away when she pulls back, keeping his hold on her as long as she lets him. ]

That's right. There's... not really much left for me back home.

[ What would he go back to --he has no family, no friends. The Director... he's sure she'll be fine even if he might still miss her sometimes. After everything, he can't go back to doing that kind of work.

What he has now with Tenn means more to him. And Morgan doesn't deserve to be alone.

[ She makes a small noise in acknowledgement. She hadn't forgotten what he had told her, about his friends dying and his mother passing, but she wasn't sure if things had changed at all in the last few weeks. But it seems that it hasn't, as he's pretty sure of what he's leaving behind.

She had thought about it, when he first offered it – if she had succeeded in killing and getting away with it to the end, she would've went back to see things through, before taking Makoto up on his offer and going with him. But obviously it didn't come to pass, and with it still on the table... there isn't really much left for her, either. But...

She pauses for a moment, before nodding. ]
I suppose I still owe you some time on the ice rink.

[ Makoto smiles at that response, still content to pretend it's just the two of them here discussing their futures. ]

I'll say. I never got the chance to show you my skills either. [ A laugh before his gaze is sliding away again. ]

... So, does that mean you'll really come with me? [ Oops, he means-- ] Us?

[ She nods again, laughing quietly at his correction. ]

There most likely isn't anything left for me where I'm from, either.

[ They probably have contained most of the virus in Yggdrasil and Belldandy by now, so the plan she was supposed to be acting on is most likely dead at this point. So she'd just be going back to what she had, which wasn't a whole lot. ]

So... if you'll have me, then I'd be happy to go with you.
