Who: All the cute little heroes
When: Day 35, evening
Where: Back To Your Regularly Scheduled Great Outdoors, Just outside the train

[ The beach fades away all at once, taking the cheery sunshine with it as evening hits all at once-- it melts away in a shower of sparkles as the familiar setting re-emerges. There are new stars in the sky above in clover pink, senna red, jasmine blue, and licorice violet.

Just before the beach disappears entirely, the bubbly voice speaks once more: ]

Wasn't that so much fun! You all rrrrrreally got to know each other, didn't you? Keep up the good work~!

[ If you had any alcohol in hand you still have it, otherwise everything from the trial is gone. ]

[ honestly, starts laughing ]

What? You're upset over that?

[awakenerd]

[Makes a sulky noise but he's not like, upset, just pouty.]

Mnngh. What'd I ever do to you??

[fisherofmen]

Now.

[ with an amused patience, as he shifts to lean close - ]

I thought it would be inappropriate for a friend to hear words like these, especially when you've no malintent for that person, but fine. If you really want to hear it.

[awakenerd]

[Uh?]

Yeah?

[fisherofmen]

[ with a grip on his shoulder, gentle at the palm but with his nails dug in, not unlike a cat's warning paw; his voice is pitched low and pleasant to the ear, in the same tone one would use to speak to a lover: ]

Hurt him, and I will rip out your energy receptors and break down every fiber of your composition to their fundamental elements and reconfigure them to be inside out, so that your world is composed of nothing but yourself, so that you can see nothing, hear nothing, and touch nothing but your own particles, until you fizzle out of existence.

[Holy shit on a cracker]

[awakenerd]

[awakenerd]

[Okay but actually the uh, sudden alarming switch to kill bill sirens aside that's really... almost endearing? Alarming and unhinged but demon fumes aren't great for anyone's sanity. So also endearing.]

done

[awakenerd]

[He lifts the hand not being gently shoulder clawed and puts it on Cael's head? Can he do that? Gently just, head pat. And leaves his hand there warmly.]

Sometimes I'm an idiot, so I can't promise never to hurt him. But I'll do my best to make him happy.

Thanks for caring so much.

[fisherofmen]

[ on one hand, he has now let go of his shoulder

on the other hand, now there's just this face as he freezes up from headpats ]

[awakenerd]

[Leaves his hand on Cael's head then! Ruffles gently.]

That said, you're a pretty alarming guy, huh?

[Just mildly. Hair fluff!]

I'm glad you were open with me though. Did you ever get a name?

[fisherofmen]

[ staring at him like he's not really sure how to react

except crawl onto his lap, maybe ]

[?????????????????????]

[fisherofmen]

[ lap. cat.


stare. ]

[awakenerd]

[?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????]

Is... That a no?

[He's lost all track of what's going on because what's going on? This feels like reading the first chapter of the first book and then diving in at chapter 30 on the sixteenth book and he has no idea why we're now on mars and who are all these new characters.

Oh well he'll just headpat some more in confusion.]

[fisherofmen]

[ well




it turns out he lives here now. ]

[awakenerd]

[I guess this is how I die.

]

[awakenerd]

Um... What are you thinking...?

[fisherofmen]

. . .

This isn't right either.

[ getting off of him - or more like, disappearing into gold sparkles ]

[awakenerd]

[?!!??]

[awakenerd]

Oh come on.

[fisherofmen]

[ perish. ]
