[Game 20] Epilogue

[arsgoetia]

Maon leads the way back towards civilization—somehow making his way easily back out through the woods, and you know, there's some things you just don't ask about.

It's a little longer walk back than it was getting there—you'd ended up popping out in a slightly different location. The sun isn't quite up enough to be causing any adverse side effects, and somehow as you walk, you find any fatigue or pain or chill drifting away, leaving you feeling rejuvinated rather than exhausted. The really happy archangel might be partially to blame for that.

The cottage soon comes into sight. Siùsaidh is sitting on the porch waiting, and Tristan's car is once again parked outside.

"Tis about time ye got back," she says firmly. "Tis been three days, and I can only mind an incubus in my home fer so long. Step inside for breakfast, now, won't ye?"

[we will continue to pick at threads in the Endgame but feel free to hit up anybody anywhere in the Epilogue! thanks for the game, see you again in three years soon ♥]

So I'd rather get told to go places the normal way instead of being summoned even if summoning might be faster. So everyone else needs to pick up the slack in the meantime!

[telepathetically]

Can you imagine? "We need to solve this cipher, but let's wait until Shuri gets here. His flight lands in 13 hours."

[playfair]

You would all die way before then!

[telepathetically]

Probably!

[playfair]

So that's why you need to at least learn Atbash or something!

[telepathetically]

It's hard to study for stuff at home and stuff here at the same time!

[playfair]

I could just teach you right now.

[telepathetically]

That would be really cool, actually??

[playfair]

Eh, really? Really really? ♥

[telepathetically]

If I'm going to learn, I should learn from a pro.

[playfair]

A professional...!! ♥

[HE'S SO PLEASED BY THIS DESCRIPTION]

[telepathetically]

I don't know anyone better at it than you. Not counting your wife, obviously.

[playfair]

Mmm, I mean, it's a big demonic magical thing apparently... That's why they keep showing up everywhere in the first place.

[telepathetically]

Do you ever get demons that are like... into jigsaw puzzles or puzzle boxes instead? Demonic Picross?

[playfair]

I'm pretty sure Lucia had a puzzle box before... Ah, demonic Picross sounds fun. That would be a good way to leave clues to things!

I guess most of the time you don't want to leave clues.

—If I have a puzzle room, I'm going to put Picross in it!

[telepathetically]

PLEASE do.
