[Final Day] Endgame

And just as suddenly as everything had began, the demons are gone—all of them. Not a single crow feather remains. As if being sucked backwards out of a vacuum, sound and light flood into the room and the hallway, crashing down on you. You are back in the real world, with noise and physics and sunlight streaming in through the window.

You are also left with two bereft Bellcourt children, the older of which is suddenly doubling over in his wheelchair and shouting in anguish.

She nods slowly, shaky. "Yeah... I dunno. I never thought about this. Sidney never said anything... maybe he was protecting me from this sort of thing, maybe...?"

*the floor sure is interesting*

...politics suck.

"I don't understand any of this," Lucia says into the middle distance. "I just... there was a quake and I found a thing and then Sidney came to me and it all seemed so..."

It was kind of...you were safe from everything but him when you had him, I guess...

"...he said that to me before," she says, slowly. "Something like, I didn't need to be afraid of anything because he was the scariest thing. Which... he was, I guess..."

...which means you can beat all the other scary things.

"Yeah," she says. "But... he was hurting David, wasn't he?"

H-he's not anymore.

"David woke up when he was gone," she says, after a long moment. "...He'd said he'd loved me. He said he wanted to marry me."

You told me.

Right before we...left, last time.

"Sorry," she says. "My memory's a bit screwed up. I just... I don't know what to think, that's all..."

what do you even

h-hoooooolds Tokunaga out towards Lucia*

She stares uncertainly at Tokunaga.

*talking very fast*

I kind of want to hug you or something that isn't sitting on you or yelling at you, b-but. Um. You can hug him instead if you want I guess!

...She takes Tokunaga from you and looks at it. "...It's kind of ugly," she mumbles, and hugs it.

Y-yeah, well...!

"...Soft, though."

He's my favorite.

She just. SQUEEZES HIM.

*it's what he's for!

mildly awkwardturtle silence*

[the awkwardturtlest]

We'll be around to help you out one way or another, I think, so...

"Thanks," Lucia says, and offers you Tokunaga back, awkwardly. "It... means a lot??"

*sets him down on the floor and sniffs hard*

You'd better take care of yourself!!

Lucia glances at her face abruptly, surprised, at the sniff.
