mingle: farewell

Farewell
34 Revived

As the sun rises on Saturday morning, all will be quiet and still in the village. Not a single soul stirs as the sun and the moon linger in the sky, visible should anyone look.

A shimmer of stars spark through the air as a swirl of darkness lifts from the village. Everything has returned to as it once was, all 16 houses in-tact and all buildings precisely as they were before. Beams of light follow, soaring through the air and delivering every single participant back to this plane of existence.

As participants gather their wits and take in their surroundings, they'll find that a celebratory banquet has been prepared for them not unlike the one that originally greeted them. Decorations hang from the rafters and windows as lively music plays and can be heard in every part of the village. Some may even be able to trace the source to a gathering of musical instruments, and even...a turntable? Strange. All manner of fruits and vegetables appear to be perfect for harvest, and a variety of freshly cooked dishes from across many worlds can be found on display at the tables in the center. If you don't see your favorite dish? All of the ingredients can be found, along with amenities to make it yourself.

Surrounding the center of the village, several gateways open one by one, a soft gold glow emitting from them. No dangers linger in these parts, but adventure awaits those who wish to find it. Likewise, silver gateways open alongside these and serve as portals that allow participants to return to their homeworlds whenever they're ready.

Your Oracle Bells are in working condition, all messages saved from your time here and featuring a new network feature. Even as you leave this world, you're only 140 characters away from the friends you've come to cherish. Look around at those who join you today. Look hard enough, and you may even find some familiar faces you haven't seen for a very, very long time.

Though your time in this village draws to a close, the universe has settled and found a path to follow. You will always have a place here should you wish to return, and even when you depart for your next destination, your strength and power will follow you.

Your gratitude will be remembered, participants. Congratulations.

[ ugh. they don't have a heart, but they feel very full nonetheless, like they're lying in the sun on a clear day - they'd missed him, truly, and his kind words nourish them. They lift their face, although they can only hold his gaze for a second or two before glancing away bashfully again. ]

I want to. [ a beat, and they turn a little red again; their poison might be under control, but their nerves aren't, apparently. ] You brought me out of the night. I thought that was impossible, all of these years. For you... all of this was worth it, to meet you.

[ there's a pause of a few seconds as they get progressively more embarrassed over saying that out loud. ]

T-that's... just my own opinion... You can ignore it if it's weird...

[...

he's quiet for a bit, before he smiles softly.]


It was your own strength that brought you out as well. Be proud of yourself, Cinnabar.

...

[ easier said than done. They've hated themself for so long that they barely even feel worthy of this friendship and the gifts he's given them - but they can't bear to part with them, either. So they're simply quiet in response, not sure what to say. ]

... You've been through a lot. I wish that you could rest, too.
nonbelligerent: (lies for you. 12-3)

Ha... it's not quite in my nature, I suppose.
globs: (just to get some attention from you)

You'll make them worry like that. The people who care about you.

[ "me" isn't spoken, but implied. ]

Some things can't be helped, unfortunately.

It can't be helped, or you don't care to help it?

[ they're dubious that he couldn't change his life and take at least a little time for himself, but, then again, what do they know? They continue on; they're sure he wouldn't actually answer that, anyway. ]

... Don't burn yourself out. [ they look up at him. ] If you're tired, you can come see me. The sea is peaceful, and in the summer, there are a lot of flowers... I'll bring some to you.

... I'd like that.

[if it can happen, anyway.]
