WEEK SIX

16 Vacationers

Throughout your time on the island, there's been a steady rhythm; the murders, the trials, the executions, the clean-up afterwards that leave just up remnants for you to remember what was lost. This Monday morning though, things are different. The debris and any biohazards are cleared, but no effort has been made to repair the games at the arcade, or to restock the chemicals and damaged equipment at the laboratory.

Odd.

If you cast your eyes to the sky, you'll also notice that the distortion is also lingering—there's certainly less of it at least, a haze still lingering over the go-karts, one whirlpool lingering out in the sea. It could be worse, surely.

Though there's no new locations for you to take your mind off of all these oddities either. In fact, looking at your device to access the resort map area and scrolling past Kakapo's Nest triggers an error.

There’s one more, slightly more eclectic change: the kittybots, instead of having cute kitty ears and faces, are now without exception round-headed. This would make them look like ordinary robots, but their heads actually now look like a bowl of fish swimming, which occasionally form up into expressions. A change of pace for everything, it seems.

5/5!

[mysticpowerbroker]

[ And followed by this one's voice to join along this chorus of joy and happiness! ]

Hello, hello!

It looks like it is working. It's only natural with myself here that we made progress!

[ Oh, right. Other people are hearing them, so... ]

Guess who made something incredible happen again~?

[ ...Some things don't change.

Though, it seems for now the voices of those who have departed are now with you. Now, is a time for a reunion.

Of sorts. But, better than nothing for now, right? ]

[finalmix]

[ claps, because it is kind of impressive, especially with like ehhhhh half their powers on lockdown. ]

Bravo, bravo. Well done, Mage of Flowers.

I hope you all didn't miss us too much?

[conchy]

Heheh! Not particularly!

[WOW]

[mysticpowerbroker]

Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all day!

[ Merlin says excitedly. Thanks for appreciating his mighty prowess. ]

Hmmmm...I'd say some of us did. But I know I did for sure!

[immortalpoet]

You couldn't even get our bodies over?

[Says the very tired, exhausted voice.]

Whatever. At least we're not stuck in that forest like last time.

[mysticpowerbroker]

Great works can't be rushed~

[ Said cheerfully as always... ]

Well, I'll take that as an expression of gratitude anyway.

[dancing_flames]

Still complaining?

[Oh, he's amused.]

Good. That's how I know it's you.

[butcherspice]

Can’t catch a break, can ya? Thought limbo would sound more peaceful.

[It’s nice to actually hear from Verg again with fewer barriers like technology or bizarre memory sharing.]

[gluttoning]

It really is like a telephone.

[munch munch munch what the hell is he eating its a mystery when all you have is ASMR]

Can they hear us?

[chosenwang]

[ Spirit Subs? ]

We can hear you, Beel. Did you decide to haunt us?

[dupiety]

Loud and clear, my dear Beel.

[Temenos is measured with his response, but the relief is absolutely present in his tone.]

I trust you're all doing well over there?

[mysticpowerbroker]

[ Judging by the responses...it is no surprise that he chirps cheerfully right after: ]

It looks like they can!

[plunges]

Beel.

[ Yes!! He's calling him by his nickname... ]

I did what I could. Thank you.

[diabolizes]

[ Good thing he followed the little group towards the garden! ]

Hahaha! Good work, Merlin. I suppose a full revival is next on the list?

[mysticpowerbroker]

[ Good thing indeedy!

Fou is probably pawing at WWX's feet or something too. ]

It's always nice to be appreciated~

But yes, it is, naturally. I can't just leave you all hanging, with only our voices, you know?

[plunges]

[ He perks up at the sound of Beel's voice, but he will address whoever's around from the other side at large, including Lobelia... ]

It's good to hear from you.

[mysticpowerbroker]

[ He will naturally get at least one comment from the afterlife wizard. ]

Sounds like you're extremely excited to hear from us again! I don't blame you, though.

[microtransactions]

[ also slow clapping, but also. ]

... do you all need, like, something to possess, or are you just kind of astral projecting your voices for now?

[dupiety]

Well, this is certainly an improvement over text.

[It must mean Merlin's power is getting stronger...at least that's what Temenos hopes.]

[chrysaline]

[ Of course she's here. And give her credit, she's not crying yet. ]

I knew you could do it. You really are amazing, Merlin! And majestic, and magnanimous, and magnificent.

[chosenwang]

[ He is going to be looking around to see if he can find the origin of the sound. ]

Looks like you did something amazing, my dear flower. How long are you able to chat for?

[dakicover]

It looks like you did~. Not bad, not bad, maybe the power of friendship is as good as they say.

[ crea’s pretty happy to hear folks again, but he’s trying his best to play cool. ]

[stilllovesyou]

[Nona's voice, without any of it's usual cheer, comes through, though it doesn't seem like she was talking to the people on the other side.]

They can hear us? All of them?

[idologue]

[ When the big joyful reunions have quieted down a little, Lacus feels like they might need to get down to business. ]

Merlin. Is there anything else you can tell us that might be of use? You indicated knowing quite a bit about our administrators and their hidden schemes.

[butcherspice]

…well, how about that? Thought you were full of hot air at first, but you got some fuckin’ tricks up those flouncy sleeves.

[Billy has a pleased, slightly baffled smile on his face. He didn’t know if this would actually work, so it’s a pleasant surprise.]
