WEEK 7 - FAREWELL

[probe]

POPULATION: 37

Sunday morning rolls around rather easily. The base is calm and quiet, no one's been kidnapped and everyone's managed to stay alive. Congratulations on that. Everything is in perfect order as far as you can tell.

As you begin to wander the base, you'll notice a couple of handwritten signs directing you toward the indoor beach on Wrath's floor. Should you go, you'll find...

...several tables set up under open tents, pizzas spread out for anyone to take. There are drinks of the non-alcoholic and alcoholic type, chips, cookies, and general snack foods for anyone to have. There's that same stereo from the party in the fields stuck somewhere in the sand, playing music from a variety of different worlds. There's also a volleyball net set up, along with a few other toys and items like soccer balls, beach balls and more.

Entering the beach, you are soon filled with the innate knowledge of three specific things.

1.) The UWU has upheld its end of the programming, providing enough power to fuel any wish you may desire.
2.) Your phones have been activated and upgraded to unlimited texts with an interdimensional texting plan included to stay in touch.
3.) A new button on the elevator has been installed to go down to a basement-level floor, which will let you exit the base and step through a portal to go where you wish to go.

Some of you are likely to leave right away. But others of you may wish to mingle, play one more round of party games, and exchange your farewells.

And as for the UWU? Don't worry. The moment the last of you leaves, it will simply cease to function at all.

Well done, little sinners. Enjoy your happy ending.

[ meg is sticking around for the party for a little bit! she's as cordial as ever, even if she spends a bit of time just. sitting in the sand, thoughtfully watching the waves.

it's not that long before she heads to the elevator, but she moves slowly, almost like she doesn't want to go home. ]

[maelstroms]

[



there are mixed feelings here, really.

he's here at the beach for one last tour, to make sure that he's not missing anything, and it's as meg is effectively dragging her feet - where he does, visibly, look a little melancholic. ]

[callmemeg]

[ there is a moment where megara really considers ignoring him entirely, and continuing on her way. she doesn't particularly want to go back to a world that has hades in it, and yet... when the only other place that's been brought to her attention is the one that belongs to the two people that have left her the most confused... well, what kind of choice is that, anyway?

thing is, her heart's always been too soft to move on so easily. that's what got her into the mess with hades in the first place, and now... whatever this is.

so she levels ming yi with a deliberately neutral look, silently hoping that she can keep it that way, and asks: ]

Any more last-minute revelations for the road?

[maelstroms]

[ he mulls that over, because - out of everyone, all of the people that he formed any kind of attachment to, no matter how minor or how lasting, meg deserves answers. there's no attempt to take responsibility or give excuses for qingxuan, because he was just as in the dark, but... ]

I'm a ghost, not a god. [ lightly, for starters. ] A god was responsible for the "root of my despair," though, and that resentment allowed me to continue on in the world after I died.

[callmemeg]

...Well, we have one thing in common. [ . . . ] And you really let me think you were one of them all this time.

[ there's no disguising the hurt in her voice. she doesn't even try. ]

[shiftingwinds]

[you ever think about the fact that this is the second game you've been in where love arrows have helped torpedo an ot3 you could have had, ray. i do.

anyway. shi qingxuan had looked for her the night before, but in a comedy of errors which involves the need for both of us to sleep wasn't able to find her, but she's finally able to find her today, at the beach.

mm. what can she say, really?]

...Meg?

[...a beat. wait. her friends call her meg; does meg even want her as one of her friends right now? aaaaa, shit.]

[callmemeg]

[ meg inclines her head slightly. ]

...Sunshine.

[ it's habit now. using her full name... wouldn't feel quite right, no matter where they stand. ]

[shiftingwinds]

[...mm.

the use of the nickname is promising, but - it feels a little awkward hearing it, probably similarly to how hearing "meg" must have sounded awkward to her.]

...I'm sorry I couldn't tell you.

[callmemeg]

[ there's a thoughtful hum as she turns back to watching the waves. ]

Couldn't, huh?

[shiftingwinds]

Couldn't.

[she means this literally!!]

Every time I tried to speak of it, the words wouldn't come out until I said something else.

[callmemeg]

Mineo didn't seem to have a problem with it.

[


she had to say it ]

[shiftingwinds]

Mineo wasn't asked to kill by an Avatar to prevent another situation like Nathan's.

[she says this calmly.]

[callmemeg]

[ hmmm. well. meg is silent for a time after that.

eventually, she asks softly: ] Why you?

[shiftingwinds]

I've been wondering that for weeks.

[shi qingxuan sighs.]

Probably because I was the only one on Envy's team, and Envy was the one asking. [...] And because I've said from the start my goal was to get as many of us out of this as possible. So when it comes to a situation like this, who better to ask than me?

...I just wish I'd been a little - better at it. I wanted to do it cleanly, so she wouldn't suffer, but... [it got out of hand because sipp and i are shitposters] Then again, I'm not sure I want to be especially skilled at murder.
