SEE YOU

Welcome to...

Well, this ain't the islands anymore. You might see pieces of the island, a go-kart floating in the distance, the waterfall flowing upside down, a giant lollipop, all floating in what's similar to a nebula in space. Actually, it's closer to the void you've all grown to know so well over the weeks.

Fret not because the air here is breathable even if the landscape defies physics. Scattered throughout the "land" are shadowy portals, each leading to all of your homeworlds, at the exact time you had left off. Manipulating space-time is convenient like that.

Your u-pinions somehow, have survived, and they'll continue to function as an intranet between all of you. Oh, and everyone will gain the power to return to this space whenever they'd like and utilize the portals as they wish.

Your vacation is finally over, but this doesn't have to be goodbye.

(( OOC: Happy Good End Everyone! You all earned this. We hope you had a great time, and from the three of us, thanks for joining us on this wild ride! ))

We have finally found the difference between us, Wei Wuxian.

[She doesn't seem as mad as she did when he tried to calm her during the final battle, at least. She is smiling.]

My willingness to give up my power for others, right?

[ He's glad she's calmer now, but he tilts his head. ]

I know your greatest desire is for more power. Is that still the case?

Who can say?

[For what else is there? Still, Waltaquin pauses.] ... I think it will take me some time before I find something worthy of pursuing more research.

[It is perhaps not even that the difference is that he will sacrifice his powers for others, but what he is without them.]

So your mind has changed?

[ Because it clicks then, that his lack of power is what really distinguishes them now. ]

I’ll have powers back eventually, if Wang Lu’s Master lives up to his word. Though, they won’t be of the necromancy variety.

Quite literally. [She laughs, as if this is funny and not as if she has been gloriously and irreparably changed.

Perhaps it really is both.]

Regardless, I needs must find something capable of piquing my interest anew. You have quite the interesting quest ahead of you, yourself.

[ Yikes!!! ]

I do. It’s a shame something like that wouldn’t pique your interest.

[ He knows where they lie, after all. ]

I hope you take care of yourself, though.

[No, really, it's fine!]

Haha, remorseful that you can't invite me with you, are you?

[Unfortunately, he's right. She probably isn't made for that kind of adventure. She can't be what she isn't. But honestly it feels a little...unfortunate.]

And yourself. We'll meet again... I'm sure of it.

[ Honestly? He is a little bit. It’s a shame he has to part ways with someone so similar to him. ]

I have no doubt we will. I look forward to seeing what you can do, Waltaquin. I expect to see that you’ve become more powerful.

[ Even if she’s… noticeably off. ]

Which means that I hope you take time to recover.

[Chin up, WWX. Things may always change ~~and there are always PSLs~~. Time to recover? She mulls on this a bit. Some of the damage is surely permanently done.]

Hee hee, I am stronger than you credit me. ... In the absence of jade, I will need time to determine how to further my research... that should make do for convalescence.

[She taps her chin with her index finger. In the absence of being unable to say it will be a shame for them to separate, she'll have to say a few encouraging words.]

You seem glum for someone who has all he could ask for. I'm not the one for such encouragements, but do try to show a little excitement for your happy life.

[ THERE SURE ARE PSLS ]

I’m excited, believe me.

[ But right now he’s tired and he no longer has powers on top of all these partings, so it’s bittersweet. ]

Perhaps I’m selfish in that I want all those I care for to have everything they want too. Would you consider it such?

It's eminently selfish, [she answers without hesitation.] If those you care for are well, then it makes you feel better about yourself.

[Waltaquin can't say she thinks he has any room to feel bittersweet when he so easily stripped himself of something so important, like he was jumping at the ledge to tear out his own spine. As for those feelings regarding the rest...

The smallest of smiles splits her lips.] I've been accused of selfishness before. [Albeit never for these reasons.] I'll allow the accusations to hold water for this.

See you next time
