[Final Day] Endgame

[arsgoetia]

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.

Thank you for the exorcism.

[troublebrewing]

I'm just glad it worked.

It was clever of you to think of contacting Kieran.

[troublebrewing]

It was dangerous... but... I'm relieved. I wish I could apologize and thank him without having to burn things around him. I think he's a little afraid of me for that.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

It is frightening. That doesn't mean that you are.

[troublebrewing]

...

Thanks. Crow says we're a pirate crew.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

Why does he like pirates so much?

[troublebrewing]

I'm not sure, but it's nice.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

He's very young.

[troublebrewing]

Maybe not that young.

Do we even know where Disneyland is?

[troublebrewing]

... nearby?

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

If he really wants to go, we're going to have to find a way to get there.

[troublebrewing]

A bus?

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

A what?

[troublebrewing]

It's a vehicle. Like... a carriage. But for a lot of people.

[troublebrewing]

Does that make sense?

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

No.

[troublebrewing]

...

I'm bad at explaining things.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

Nothing here makes sense.

[troublebrewing]

There's plenty that doesn't make sense even if you're from a place like this.

But Disneyland is supposed to be fun, so.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

I suppose he needs a breather from this as well.

[troublebrewing]

We all do. Whenever we come here... we never really do anything except try to solve the case we've been given. Tristan says I owe him a coffee, but... I have a feeling neither of us will have time for that. We don't come here to hang out... so I'd like for everyone to have fun, for once.

How many times have they called you?
