DAY

Day


The sensation is like being dragged through a cloud. A heavy, roiling nimbus which pervades your eyes, your ears, your skin, and what feels like your very soul. Or what's left of it.

Your eyes squeeze shut and when they open....well you know this place already, there was much ado about lampposts in this square not too long ago. But what you haven't known in how many weeks is the sun hanging high overhead, not stuck in a perpetual state of Twilight but properly shining in the sky.

The sun feels good and you feel more whole than you have in a while. Those are all inexplicably good things, and they should be celebrated. But the mark on your body, faded but still visible warns of something still more to come. And for those who have been missing a part of themselves for longer than that..it's just a whisper of a feeling, but it is very much real.

Welcome to Krakow, for real this time. For however long it lasts, at least.

It absolutely isn't. Not with the technology that she has at hand. The only thing killing her here did was set her back in her plans.

[It's not all that satisfying, to be completely honest...especially with Erik contracting Rembrandt.]
twoasone: (Talked about everything)

[personal profile] twoasone 2020-02-16 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
... Hmph.

Now we have to worry about Rembrandt being able to send us all home, since Erik's still thinking of everyone.

[ And Shin hopes he doesn't leave the dead behind if they all go to the Day. ]
ortion: (❀ my life is so tragic)

[It just really doesn't sit right with him. The fact that she wasn't totally beaten sits worse with him than an innocent being killed does, apparently. Lord.]

I suppose we do.

[He figures it won't go badly? Erik seems way too altruistic to just turn on them now after he almost died trying to stop Rideaux.]
tokihanate: (wow really)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-02-16 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
Well, when they arrive here(?)... we still have that stuff. [ Gestures to pile for demon banishing. ] The question is if anyone cares to use it. [ Erik's free to have his soul nommed if he wants. ]

[personal profile] p_q 2020-02-16 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
I'll wager they're more interested in making use of the devil than in banishing him.

[Please see: Rideaux, Erik, Mikami, and possibly sundry other parties. He's just shrugs.gif at this point, humans.]
tokihanate: (you've gotta be kidding me)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-02-16 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. How entirely stupid. [ Things are worth doing on your own thanks, he's not looking for shortcuts. He's waited decades for his goals. ]
p_q: (DEF: 001)

[personal profile] p_q 2020-02-16 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Humans are weak, and will always reach for shortcuts and leaning on whatever else they can rather than reaching for what they need themselves.

[An actual shrug. He's not at all surprised, and not even disappointed; he's just more or less washing his hands at this point.]
tokihanate: (im ready)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-02-16 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ Well, he knows that well. He'll give a resigned sigh. At least it's The End. ]
p_q: (007)

[personal profile] p_q 2020-02-16 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
[It is an Ending of some kind, at the very least. Now all that's left is for the living to show up on this side with their pet demon and whatever else happens after that. Seriously, all this waiting, but at least his tea hasn't run dry yet.]
tokihanate: (eat shit minamoto)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-02-16 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
[ Well, he got several of those big containers for this reason. ]
ortion: (❀ just no)

[personal profile] ortion 2020-02-16 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Dist glances at it...and shakes his head.]

I just want to see Iago. I don't care what you all decide to do with the demon.

[Since he doubts Erik is going to have Rembrandt kill them all or something.]
tokihanate: (um what)

[personal profile] tokihanate 2020-02-16 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
I don't care either if we're not fighting him. [ A shrug. ]
