Week 0 - Epilogue

The day is bright, last night’s events seem like a bad dream. If it wasn’t for Lovepon and Mira’s absence, it’d seem like none of that ever happened.

But it did. The police agents milling around in the park and processing the crime scene are proof none of that was a dream or a hallucination. Twenty-two people were brought to Cartesio, and now there are twenty alive.

You’re alive right now and that’s what matters.

Looks like there won’t be any answers about why you’re here, or about how you got here. It’s not satisfying, but the Sergeant wasn’t forthcoming about anything. All there’s left to hope is that there won’t be any last minute surprises to be sprung up on you, and that in any moment the Sergeant comes out of the police station to tell you how you’ll be taken back home.

What’s taking him so long? Who knows. Why not to talk with your fellow participants one last time? It seems all the places you could go into are open right now and willing to give you service. Cartesio is your oyster right now. Go ahead!

ice cream parlor

[alfin]

[ Alfin was at the scene of the murder, just standing there as tears streamed down her face. This was where somebody died. She had been trying to kill someone else, but that didn't make it any less of a tragedy. ]

But also... She didn't deserve to be executed for defending herself.

[ She whispered softly to herself. ]

[doublelammy]

[Let's be real, Millium was probably here for more ice cream. Just to spite Mira, really. But then Alfin is here, and while Millium definitely isn't the source of comfort someone else might be right now, she still feels like she ought to try.

So over she goes, resting a hand gingerly on Alfin's shoulder. She wants to say something, but try as she might, nothing good is really coming to mind, so she has to hope this is enough for right this instant.]

[ Alfin leans into the touch for a moment before bringing her hands up to wrap Millium into a hug. ]

[doublelammy]

[Millium is briefly surprised, but not being one to turn down hugs, she quickly returns it.]

...It's gonna get better from here, Your Highness. We're gonna do better back home. Okay?
