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...

What, unfortunately.

[ with no pause or break, but her voice is quiet. ]

I started suspecting, after a while. Certain memory losses- made me certain of it.

[reconnective]

Funny how memory losses are the thing that made you think so. [he doesn't seem perturbed by it, studying her over carefully.] ...how do you feel?

i fell asleep on this and woke up to a box full of qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqwwwwww after my last sentence,

[horologia]

... Regret, mostly. [ he'll get that much honesty from her, really, as opposed to deflection. ] But lucid... I think. For now, I don't think that will change. Not while we're here, in any case... it's just a matter of what happens next, now.

[ imagine if i broke the setting to go 'surprise, boss fight' on the endgame log. ]

A lot of my memories were fake. I've already told you about what happened when I forgot how I met- the other magical girls in Mitakihara. It just so happened that one of the memories I lost was of what I'd convinced myself I was, so there was no way for me to keep blinding myself to some of the things that should have been obvious, if I'd really thought about it.

[false memories, huh?]

Once you pull away the fake memories and the fake setting around you, you start to remember your true nature and there's no turning back. You could have kept lying to yourself, but the way things added up meant that was harder without knowing other answers.

[he wonders if that's what caused roxas to eventually leave, seek him out and officially accept everything.]

Lucid is a good thing, but...are you worried about what's next?

[horologia]

Honestly? Yes. Witches are not known for their rationality. If they were at all sane, or coherent, or could be reasoned with ... things might have been different.

But beyond that, they shouldn't even exist anymore. That I do... I don't know what that means, other than that something must be wrong.

[reconnective]

But the whole unpredictability thing makes it scarier to deal with. [he nods slowly.]

I think...even if something's wrong, that means there's a chance to make it right. And that's pretty incredible when you consider all of the things that have happened. Maybe you're a different kind of witch than you even know about.

[horologia]

I don't even remember how it happened. I was fighting, but I shouldn't have... it shouldn't have. That blank space - I know it must be important, somehow, but... I'm not afraid.

[ or rather, more precisely: ]

Her power was to erase all witches before they were born, with her own hands. The fact that I'm here despite it worries me deeply, because it feels like this can't possibly be a fluke.

But... we'll see, maybe.

[reconnective]

[...]

A different kind of witch then. Or, at least, one that's capable of controlling her mind and her power. [he hums to himself.] There're people like that where I'm from, too. The ones left behind after their Others have lost their hearts. They don't all become monsters.

But you'll find an answer someday.
