EPILOGUE

26 Villagers

The spirits you've heard so much about, the fruit you've heard so much about, finally make their grand appearance. With Adela promising her cooperation, and Makima enjoying some kind of moviethon, you're all free to go. The Wizard's Tower beckons, and the rune circle in the basement lights up as soon as the Junimo are called. You know exactly how to invite them now.

Even the winged number among you, who've spent the past few days relieving their burdens, or simply getting out whatever all that was in Mamma Mia. Once things have calmed down enough, some apple-like fairies approach you as well, somehow without too much fanfare, and start dancing around your duck-shaped selves. There are a surprising number of them, and when they're done with their tiny fruity boogie-woogie you find yourself back in your bodies as though you'd never left or broken them. Nice.

Now that you can finally leave, you probably don't want to linger too long in Puffin Town, do you? But all your fields are still ready to harvest, with only some of the Astera fruit plucked while you were away (mystery!). You can grab the real fruit of your labors, say your goodbyes at least; you'll always have your memories of this place, no matter where you go.

(( ooc: Congratulations on achieving golden ending! In this game, characters cannot travel to each other's worlds freely - but they do keep their phones and will stay connected across worlds! Everyone also gets a complimentary copy of Mamma Mio in any format that works in their world. Whatever that means.

Characters can also regain all their memories they lost upon arriving! However, if they would like to remain in the dark, Adela will happily hold onto them. Thanks for playing! ))

[ HE IS THROWING HIS COPY STRAIGHT TO THE FUCKING TRASH. ]

[enkiboo]

...That bad?

[ damb ]

[unenvying]

[ wei wuxian's version of this is a series of hyper realistic drawings accompanied by their script so he's just. flipping through the play and snickering the entire time.

what's that they say - terrible but entertaining?? ]

[shamen]

You did great, mom.

[Too great, really.]

[lovebombing]

Ooooh. Someone's cranky! Don't be so cranky! We're alive, y'know!

[pimpplan]

Aw, wife, I was going to get photos from that framed.

[ THE STREAMS ARE CROSSING!!! I REPEAT ]

[aurevoirx2]

[ Oh thank god, he doesn't have to use the letter. Which he crumples up, even though it's heavily redacted as it is.

..... Then he needs to think about what to do. Life's going to be hard on the run. ]

[driftedaway]

Well, we did it? Somehow?

[ Honestly, Keito's still a little confused at how all that went down. ]

[linearcrash]

Man, I was really hoping to get a fight, yo. [ Huffing out a breath. He'll have to take his fight out on something else then.

Come bug him one last time. Or if you're a certain someone, he will be heading straight for them. ]

someone

[enkiboo]

[ That must be Enkidu, right? Or Kingu....well, it doesn't matter.

Because this too is one 'path' Enkidu could have taken, isn't it? ]

Were you looking for me?

[hyperbloom]

...

[ She doesn't know what to say. It feels like there's a lot left, a lot that's gone unsaid, but she's sort of just. Standing and trying to take it all in. They're going home. ]

[mirrari]

You feeling alright?

[Because, you know. She did get shot.]

[sorathvau]

[Beelzebub stands there, as he is wont to do.

Without much incentive to leave, at this point, he's hesitant to do much. Maybe he just wants to spend some time with you all, one final time.]

[jarcrash]

[ Bibi is approaching him... with a knife in hand. ]

I'm going to hug you and if he tries anything, I will cut his hand off. Are we clear?

[mareum]

[The first thing Dongrang does is stretch. Boy does it feel good to be back in his regular body again. And not trapped on an island purgatory.]

That was certainly something!

[Seemingly unbothered as ever, even now...but some of you know how much of a facade that can be at times.]

Ah, but where to go from here...?

[mirrari]

[She has to look up at him again... tragique.]

A pretty important question, huh?

[...It's a bit more awkward when he's a human again.]

[jarcrash]

[ Bibi is more than pleased to be back in her own body. And she feels like she doesn't urgently need to jump into a portal back home or anything, so she's actually packing a suitcase before going! Gotta get some mementos from the farm in there - like polaroid photos of their painted walls!

She's overall in a pretty good mood now. They did it, she's a living girl, and she get to go home with Amy!!

If you're someone she's had a positive relation to, whenever you run into her she'll throw out an offer: ] If you don't know where to go, I do own a mansion and a vacation home - and I think getting you a fake ID shouldn't be so hard.

[ Come back with her to the regular old USA!

If you're not someone she was on good terms with, she's still around and ready to be talked to! Bibi's always a happy-looking girl, but she's humming and bouncing the whole time now. ]

[faildeus]

[ as a fed he thinks he should be dissuading this.....







but you know what, sure, make fake IDs for everyone who wants it, who gives a fuck. ]

Try to get the rest of the paperwork if you can afford it. Social Security and passports. It's good stuff to have.

[driftedaway]

[ Keito spins around, happy to finally be tall again. ]

Well, that's one problem solved!

[ Funnily enough, he's still not in a rush to leave, so he'll walk around to chat for a while. (Maybe it's because deep down, he realizes the true simple answer and has accepted it if everything went wrong today.) ]

[shamen]

[Wow, he almost forgot what he looked like.]

You're as chipper as I recalled.

[revengier]

[ Well, it's time to go back to his job... if his job is still even active anymore. He's busy gathering himself together well enough to hop back in the midst of all of that, giving himself just a moment before leaving.

And, well, he'd like to say some goodbyes as well. ]

Luck doesn't mean much, but good luck back home. [ ... ] Or wherever it is you're going.

[hyperbloom]

[ Shinobu locks eyes with him, and she seems hesitant to say anything.

After a quiet moment, though, she'll speak up. ]

...It's goodbye for real this time, huh?

[liberazoth]

This is... What's the word for it...

[ wwfs. 'what would flay say.' ]

Anticlimactic?

[ like on the one hand, no more murder (for now), on the other... what all just happened. truly they all need a moment to decompress and process because ??????

---

if you catch him by the portal, he seems in no rush to go. just... thinking it over, it seems? ]

[truthdefiler]

Isn't it????

[Erika is SO MAD.]

We didn't even kill them.

[unenvying]

[ no longer a duck!!! which is all well and good, because having wings and being grounded (kinda) means that it's a little hard for him to do this:

there's a wei wuxian sitting on the roof of the community centre, flute in hand, and it seems like he's just playing whatever tune suits his fancy, and he's just content to people watch at the moment, but if anyone calls him, he's perfectly willing to parkour down and have a conversation with whoever approaches. he doesn't seem to be too eager to leave any time soon though. ]

[mirrari]

[Absolutely nothing that happened the past three weeks prepared Azure for how it ended. Good god.]

At least I didn't have to play the mom.

[She's not running off immediately - the Wrench are probably trucking along without her, and she should at least grab something tangible from this place before she leaves.]

Not looking forward to going back to the desert... The weather here was nice.

[truthdefiler]

[Erika... stands. How did she even get here. She was literally just in the process of turning into a duck. She can sort of pick at the details, come to conclusions, and she just looks around at everything. Everyone just standing there alive and happy (or alive and miserable).]

What a garbage ending.

[CAN SHE GO BACK TO BEING DEAD PLEASE.

Otherwise she can be seen just wall flowering, contemplating what it is she wants to do. She's not feeling too social right now, just considering everyone else's happy endings juxtaposed with her still being stuck in the torment nexus.

She's a bit crabby about it!]

[moonblades]

[Mio watched Erika haul ass around town that first week and saw how winded she got; she's pretty sure she can't outrun her.]

Sucks to have your work undone like that, doesn't it? [And since she can't outrun her, Mio will be patting the crown of her head slightly. She won't insult her with the hug.]

I'm glad for this part of it.

[shearcut]

[ she's here to give back memories but she's also here to see how everyone is doing, even if she's awkwardly positioned in the corner on a wooden crate. if anyone approaches they'll get a small smile and a very adela type of question. ]

May I help you with anything? [ she knows what she wants to do, and she knows what she thinks she should do. she could go back to Discity, and that would be the brave thing to do but...

one step at a time. ]

[theotherww]

Where the hell is Makima?!

[pimpplan]

[ Huh. ........... huh. ]

Well, that sure was something.

[ It kind of felt like a fever dream, honestly? But things seems to have worked out so.......

Now he just has to figure out about What Comes Next. ]

[rightmove]

[Healy is here, and would you look at that, his hand is all better. Ten whole fingies again! How nice.

He'll need the full set to work this damn phone once he heads back...]

Neat that we get to stay in touch, but people are gonna think I'm a time traveler if they catch me with this.

[ah the 70s............]

[driftingknight]

And after I ruined my cape for that...

['That,' of course, being Healy's hand, but he ain't even mad. Good to see you can count to ten again without needing a second person!]

[moonblades]

[Mio takes a trip back to Corpse Flower Farm before she comes back ready to leave, folding up several sheets of paper and putting them in her pockets. Maybe she's also buried Mamma Mio in the field up there. Who knows. ...Just kidding. There's something precious about that, too. Also it's probably downloaded into her Iris.

As she feels the weight of those papers, so many days recorded folding in her hands, her smile is a little wistful.]

One more month... Lots can happen in that time.

[They have to hurry back because there's still so much to do and so much to see. Her friends need her. But... This is the first and last time Mio will ever be able to play for those who have died and those who are alive at the same time and have them all hear it.

So what's one last song for the road?]

[revengier]

[ Kurapika listens quietly, letting out a soft breath when she finishes. There's something about hearing a song like that after everything that's sobering.

Once she finishes, however, he claps. ]

That was lovely, Mio.

[shamen]

[He doesn't have a hoodie to hide behind now so he's just quietly standing away from the crowd now that he's said(?) what he needed to say(?). He's not going anywhere until everyone else starts leaving though.]

[lovebombing]

[Someone is zipping around like a hummingbird! It's nice to be back in this body! He's a full clown now, mom! (Does he even have a mom?)]

So! We're back to where we need to be, huh? Please tell me you'll miss me. I'll be heartbroken if you don't~~~

[shamen]

[He was one of the ones who found you ass up, man.]

You're going to be really hard to forget.

[theotherww]

[Walter is honestly a bit stunned once everything has cleared up.]

That's...that was it? You expect me to just walk out of here?!

[He looks around, then back at the lights in the rune tower.]

I can just walk out of here.

[Makima basically forfeited, so does this mean he won? --there's no explanation for anything still, and the past twelve hours felt like being in some bizarre fugue state.]

Well, I do have to get back to reality.

[rightmove]

Just appreciate a good thing for what it is. Don't ask too many questions.

[Hi, buddy.]
