FAREWELL

[retellers]

FAREWELL ( ☆ ) Rise and shine, gremlins. As the new day begins, everyone will open their eyes and find themselves in transparent pods, just like the ones they had previously found the missing Leaders in. When they step out of them, they'll see the now probably familiar sight of a large, white room. Exiting the room will take them back to the castle, although it's a little different? Everything that made it personal to the Leaders is now gone, so that it no longer looks like anyone lived there. The passage leading to the basement is now locked as well, while the upper floors aren't glitching anymore. The rankings are finalized; rather, it seems that they have been since last week. Everyone on the Rabbit team will receive a message on their PHS: You did it! Think about your wish. Cute little stars zoom through the air, each one reaching a member of the Rabbit team. Looks like they'll be making their wish on these. As for everyone as a whole: Their memories are still intact, and they'll find that all of their powers have now returned to them. If they make their way to castle entrance, instead of a front door, they'll now see that it's full of many different portals. They can go through whichever portal they want, even if it's not their original home, but it's a one-way path. Unless someone on Rabbit team wants to use their wish for this, they have no way of traversing through the different worlds. They aren't completely cut off from one another, though. They're still allowed to keep their PHS, and it looks like the messaging function still works, with every participant and Leader available on the contact list. Have fun with your new texting buddies once you leave! Until then, it looks like it's time to say goodbye. Furthermore, it seems someone has something to say to everyone...

[ clementine is just staring into the portal back to her world.

she wants to go home to aj - but everything is paused... so at least she knows he's safe for the time being. but GIVEN HER WISH, she has no fucking idea what things will be like when she goes back?

she just. stares at the portal. ]

Not even sure what it's going to be like, through there.

[sacredchants]

[ hahaha... another thing they're gonna vibe about except izumo doesn't get a wish. ]

Different, I'm sure.

[stillnot]

[ if it weren't for aj, clementine honestly probably would have just offered her wish up to someone else - like izumo. wishes still sound crazy and she doesn't understand it. but aj takes priority over everything and everyone. ]

... In some ways. Big ways, but...

It's not like things will just be back to how they used to be. Can't go back, you know?

[ clem you are being so vague and you did not even tell izumo your wish, god ]

[sacredchants]

[ izumo wouldn't have taken her wish so you know, that's fair. also yeah. that's....even vague for izumo to try to make logical jumps and read into. clearly it sounds like she used her wish but??? ]

What do you mean?

[stillnot]

[ that's valid. one time sora offered clementine his wish and she wanted to murder him on the spot. ]

I used my wish to get rid of walkers, so... We'll... See how that goes.

[ this is a lot. ]

[evocationary]

Well, you don't have to know for very long because I'm coming with you to retrieve your child and then you're coming with me!

[ she says this very confidently. ]

[stillnot]

[ she laughs because she thinks lup is joking? ]

What, right away?

[evocationary]

Well - you have to give me a second because I have to like, stop being spooky, but then I'm gonna steal you away, for sure.

[stillnot]

My world should be safer now.

[ so she doesn't want to just leave it forever. ....... but she looks extremely worried, like she doesn't quite believe that her wish will come true? ]

From one thing, anyway.

[horologia]

[ what a mood. i have no fucking clue how badly i broke rebellion by pulling her here at all.

anyway hi, clem, don't mind the flowers or the bones. ]

Because of your wish, correct?

[stillnot]

[ she is minding the flowers and bones, actually! ]

... Yeah.

[horologia]

[ this is the correct fucking reaction to have, which makes clem the only valid binch in this game especially when reality seems two degrees to the right. to the left? to the left to the left. around her.

she smiles a little, but, hm, ]

Well. Would you feel better if I said that regardless of how much changes, a lot of everything else will likely stay the same?

[stillnot]

I don't know.

[ a very sincere answer. ]

Unknowns are hard to deal with. But I do want things to get better. Even if my wish worked... [ which she still doesn't really? believe? it's fine. ] It's still going to take a long time before things change.

[ so. it's a mixed bag of emotions here. ]

[exercisms]

Are you going to be okay?

[He knows about her wish, but also that her world is. Bad.]

[stillnot]

[ she gives him what she hopes is a reassuring smile. ]

I'll be fine. Things will still be hard, but - I'm not alone.

[ which she actually remembers now! wow! ]

[exercisms]

Good. Things are much easier when you have good people around you, right?

[He's reassured! He trusts Clem!]

[stillnot]

[ well... groups dangerous... but... ]

Sometimes. They can be.

[reconnective]

[he...just sort of smiles a little.]

Safer. A better place for you and AJ, no matter what. That's what it'll be like.

[stillnot]

[ ... yeah. yep. yeah. ]

Mm.

[ ... ]

... I wonder how long before people start to change. [ resource scarcity is still real and she doesn't think raiders are going away any time soon. ]

[reconnective]

Dunno. Could be a couple week, or a couple of months, or a couple of years. But at least there's the chance for that to happen now.

[stillnot]

It's going to be really weird.

[papasha]

[If Ochako wasn't here, this would be a much sadder thread probably. He peers at the portal, and then glances at her.]

The offer is still on the table.

[stillnot]

[ thank god for ochako, honestly. clementine smiles! ]

Good. I don't need to think about it anymore.

It would be... Nice. To visit sometime.

[papasha]

[He smiles, too, at first, and then it turns into a bit of a smirk.]

I wouldn't mind. I could take you both to the New York Public Library.

[He wouldn't forget AJ, most importantly. But also, he's teasing because yes, let's be big nerds at the library on a special visit.]

[stillnot]

[ she doesn't dislike reading! but she'll tease him a little, back. ]

No way, I can read books back home. Your world have movies?
