EPILOGUE ;
EPILOGUE - WEEK 7 Wake up, Narrators. You've done well this past weekend. As you awaken on this beautiful morning, the doors to the castle are wide open and a festive mood fills the air. Music can be heard from the garden and the ballroom, the dining room's overflowing with tasty treats and beverages, and everything is awash in a soft glow of purples, reds, and golds. Yet as you exit from your dormitories for the last time, several things will be noticeable to you... Lining the hallways, several new ornate mirrors flank either wall. Each mirror is engraved with the name of a Narrator and allows each participant of this war to view their world back home. They will be able to see who they wish to see and the current state of affairs in their world. They will also, thanks to their adventures in the Other Space, be able to view the future of their home worlds and what's at stake for them. No matter where they are in the castle, each Narrator will also find themselves presented with a leatherbound book, a jar of ink and a fresh quill. As they open the book they will see a write-up of their story up until now with several blank pages at the end of the book. As promised, the ink won by the Dragon's ending is enough to allow Narrators to write their own happy endings... even those that directly clash with what they've been able to witness for themselves in the mirrors. Go ahead, write yourself into the universe of another Narrator. The story is yours to tell. Alternatively - if you seek to write a new story for yourself entirely, additional pages will be provided for you to draft up that fresh start. Meanwhile, the longer you linger around the castle it will become clear that it's much noisier than it should be for only forty people. Venturing further downstairs you will find several guests waiting for you. Some of these may be people you know from your own worlds, brought here to take you home thanks to the extra magic obtained from the Other Space. Others are past participants from previous rounds of this war, battle stories and triumphs to share. Apparently they'd received an invitation to a celebration to mark the end of it all. Even those who had died from previous rounds and not revived are present. While it had been thought that they'd been lost in the Other Side when there was not enough ink to revive them - it appears that they'd been given new life via your efforts. The clock in the foyer seems to have stopped. Take all the time you need to say your goodbyes... you are in charge of your own destiny from here on out.  Welcome to your farewell log, everyone! A couple of fun notes for your perusal. Due to the efforts of characters yesterday in the mini-adventures, characters have unlocked the ability to preview their futures and decide their own destinies. Additionally, they have unlocked the ability for castmates to visit them in the castle, along with characters who have participated in previous rounds of the war! Please feel free to tag in with your gamemates' castmates or other characters from previous rounds that you can make your own Grimm AU for. If you want to share where your character is going, comment here. Your final CR chart is here, your TL;CR meme is here and your friending/love meme is here. Thank you guys so much for a wonderful eight weeks! We hope you had a magical experience here with us. ♥

We just did what we could, you know? Leaving you there - or anyone, for that matter... That's something a lot of us couldn't accept.
[Except fuckin Shirasu apparently.]
no subject
I know. But it was a pretty big sacrifice. [He feels bad about starting this game because he couldn't keep his own dokis in check.] Not many people would rise up to the challenge when they were thrown into something that seemed impossible. We've been cheering you on since day one. Our game might not have done what you did.
no subject
Maybe... Our game might not have done this either, though. It's really impossible to tell what will happen when so many people with such different perspectives are thrown into dangerous situations.
[His shoulders rise a little in a gentle, sloping shrug. Hiro, like everyone, is not on Souji's nonexistent shitlist even if this lil nerd is technically responsible. Things turned out alright and he got to meet amazing people along the way - that's good enough for him.]
I know these things will be burdens you'll carry with you, but I hope you can at least take pride in what you and Yona were able to do to help us through, too.
no subject
[A beat.] There's cookies in the kitchen, too. As an extra thank you.
no subject
You really did everything we could have hoped for. [INCLUDING COOKIES. His expression lights up at that!]
Oh! Thank you. --You were able to eat, weren't you? If not over on the Other Side, then here, at least?
no subject
[And Cass, but he doesn't need to elaborate on that.]
no subject
I'm sure your cat will be happy to see you again. [And everyone else, but likewise, he just leaves that unsaid.]
You should eat something you really enjoy once you get back and actually have a little bit of time to relax. Have your own celebration.
[Since no one else will remember he was mcbanished for AGES.]

no subject
[Though there's something in his expression that's mildly sympathetic. WHEN WILL HIRO GET TO SLEEP.]
no subject
That's what I figure. I don't mind waiting? I have a lot of things to catch up on...but hopefully everybody else gets to go back to something a little less drastic than this.
no subject
I'd like to think no one is going back into something quite this strenuous, certainly... Even if some people sound like they have their work cut out for them.
no subject
We can only hope but the only way we'll know is if we stay in touch. Maybe set up some kind of system for worldhopping so we can help each other if things get that bad.
no subject
Yes! I've heard of others thinking about doing something like that - granting themselves the ability to visit other participants, or write letters... I think it's a wonderful idea.
