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.

[preowned]

I'd hope not. That may make things difficult for our relationship.

[ tsuru will be the first to admit that he's bad. ]

[unsaid]

Ha ha ha - we cannot have that.

If anything, I treasure what we have for how easy it is.

[how simple it was for him to be fond of tsuru, even if he's the goddamn worst]

[preowned]

Is that the only reason you treasure it?

[ it's simple

but it's also not, but they've been blatantly ignoring all of the reasons why it's not, so it's fine. ]

[unsaid]

[he seems like he's thinking about it

but there's just a smile at that]

Perhaps I will simply always treasure it, as long as it is something to share with you.

[preowned]

... well, I'm pretty sure that this is flirting.

[ very bad [

[unsaid]

I'm always flirting with you.

[he really didn't need to say it again

but he will tilt his head]

Is that not what should be done with the one you love?

[preowned]

[ that... makes him pause

he still doesn't quite get why it gives him such a warm feeling. is it an actual bodily reaction or is he imagining it? the heart's strange. ]

I believe that person in particular is who you should definitely be flirting with.

[unsaid]

Ha ha ha, then naturally it is a duty that I am happy to fulfill.

[the pause was cute.

he's endeared - it's nice to be able to throw tsuru off, in the little ways that he can.]

Is there something from the kitchen you desire?

[preowned]

You said you wanted tea earlier, didn't you? I'm going to make you some.

[ he could probably summon his own, if the signs also got to keep their powers but

tsuru would prefer to make it. ]

[unsaid]

[oh... that's also cute.]

Thank you for your consideration.

[he sure as hell isn't going to say no to tea?]

[preowned]

What did I say about taking care of you, Lune-chan?

[ his smile turns more amused as he says the old nickname. ]

[unsaid]

Ha ha ha. Ah, I had nearly forgotten.

[about the taking care of him or the nickname]

You are very good at it, Tsurumaru-chan.

[preowned]

[ hmmm ]

It sounds like you're making fun of me again.

[unsaid]

Perhaps I am always making fun of you as well?

[preowned]

[ with his free hand, he reaches over to poke jiji on the cheek ]

That's less romantic.

[unsaid]

[ah, poked.

but he just laughs at that]

Ha ha ha, what a spoiled crane.

[but he will at least try to get him to stop pouting by leaning over to give him a brief kiss]

[preowned]

[ what's terrible is that the kiss works to make him stop pouting

tsuru can be so embarrassingly easy over certain things. ]

You've done a lot of the spoiling, you know.

[ but here they are, the kitchen. ]

[unsaid]

[the kitchen!!

but also:]

I cannot help but pay attention to you.

[this will come back to bite tsuru in the ass later when jiji meets him at his portal before he careens into bad end]

[preowned]

[ yeah it will he'll be mad

but once they're no longer walking, tsuru will pull him a little closer to give him another kiss.

(kara voice) in front of my kitchen? ]

What a good guide.

[unsaid]

[please don't let them kiss in kara's kitchen, he will break them both all over again]

... well, I have had enough of all that.

[he says as if he's not going to pull a bunch of the same shit when he goes home but

at least he won't be limited]

[preowned]

I'm sure.

[ he gives him another brief kiss before stepping away so he can actually make tea. ]

You must miss getting into mischief properly.

[unsaid]

[please spare the kitchen - but mikazuki will simply watch, even though he will literally never make his own damn tea]

Mischief?

No, you must be mistaken - I simply miss the view of my own garden.

[preowned]

What are you going to do about the one here?

[ he knows mikazuki was fond of it ]

[unsaid]

I do not believe it will disappear...

Perhaps I will return to it, from time to time, when I desire a stroll.

[they opened up the worlds? there's nothing stopping jiji from just wandering off when he doesn't have a mission]

[preowned]

Maybe they will still continue to send you flowers?

[ tsuru realizes the irony that none of those flowers were from him but

oh well ]
