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.

[well, kara had asked him what he believed, so he gave an answer now that he can speak uncorrupted - but he supposes that he can't blame ookurikara for his protectiveness. mikazuki is somewhat similar to tsurumaru in the sense that he doesn't feel an incredible attachment to any of his previous masters -

but he's also very different in the sense that he instead focuses on paying attention to each individual person in history, legacy or not. he meant his words as a compliment, as praise - for not everyone can leave their mark in history the same way that the date did. their legacy speaks volumes about what they were able to accomplish, and he cannot help but think that in the grander scope of history - to become a part of a national memory is one of the greatest hopes someone can have.

though he doesn't feel entirely surprised that ookurikara - regarded as one of the younger immortals here - sees his immediate loyalties first. it's endearing, and stubborn, and -

ah... mikazuki's expression softens. sometimes he truly does miss kogitsunemaru.]


They were your family and precious masters, were they not?

Even if I cannot fully comprehend your anger - [not when he lacks the same loyalty to one family line] - I know well enough that what I had said certainly deserved it.

They were.

[ the dates were good people, dedicated and noble - and they were the only ones who never abandoned him, until it became necessary to relinquish him. his love for all of them, especially masamune, will never fade.

it isn't fair of him to hold words borne of the corruption against mikazuki himself. kara knows that. even so, it's this annoying heart that he gained with human form that refuses to let it go, and clings to anger on the date clan's behalf.

does mikazuki still treasure these newfound human emotions so much, knowing this? ookurikara can't understand why he would.

- ah, but it doesn't matter so much now, does it? it's done, and they can go back to their own worlds. kara isn't going to waste time hoping that they'll never have to see each other again once they do. even his own mikazuki munechika would undoubtedly agree with this one. it's why he never fully trusted the old sword, despite wanting to. he was always too much of a mystery. ]


If your citadel has an Ookurikara - don't talk to him about them.

[ no kara would take such words kindly. it may be better not to hear them at all. ]

Hm... I cannot promise such a thing.

[if only because - ]

I think it would be rather wonderful to hear more about them from someone who loves them so.

[it's something that mikazuki barely knows. he loves his current saniwa very, very much - he feels gratitude toward him, and would do anything to ensure his happiness even if it means keeping him in the dark. but that's different from the love that a sword can feel for an entire family line, the devotion and loyalty that comes with having a master that you adore during the turbulent era itself rather than after it.]

But I will be sure to keep my thoughts to myself, whatever they may be.

[kara: i hate mikazuki he's so mysterious
jiji: i see, kara wants me to be more mysterious]

[ no, that’s… not really what he wanted. if ookurikara had his way, he would cut this mikazuki off from anything regarding the date clan, anything at all - at least temporarily. but he knows there’s no way to do that, between mikazuki’s connection to tsuru, being from a different citadel, and having access to history records even if he can’t go and see it unfold for himself. and then there’s mikazuki’s usual way of just… doing whatever he wants.

this is really the best that kara can ask for. ]


...That’s fine.

[ it’s clear that he isn’t necessarily happy with that conclusion, but. if it means saving another version of himself from hearing such harsh words about his family, then that’s what matters most, isn’t it?

perhaps if their positions were reversed, he’d want the option to choose this on his own, as he does in all things. but ookurikara knows himself best. the other will understand. ]
