[Game 21] Epilogue

[arsgoetia]

So, you get your Philly cheesesteak, and you head back on another train, returning to New York at fuck o'clock in the morning. Maybe you get a nap on the train, or maybe you're full of yawns and misery as you head back to Sariel's house at the crack of dawn. Paz went on her merry way with wonderful promises for the future, but Hale is with you, seeming remarkably energetic.

Madison is just barely held back by Kieran, it seems, from just sprinting out the door as soon as you get anywhere near the yard. As it stands, as soon as you all make your way past the gate, there's a redhead barreling down to greet you.

[aethericbody]

They certainly made sure you'd make it to safety.

[turnonmycharm]

[holds his arms out immediately]

Felt you.

[liarliarliar]

That is true. Have me there.

[beleaving]

Ah, well, I hope the boring is good? In its own way.

[turnonmycharm]

Hell hardly deserves someone as pretty as you. And Philadephia definitely doesn't.

[onelastknight]

[ im very excited for food ] Yes, I think so.

[monere]

[lmfao]

Aw, that's okay, I figured as much anyway.

[aethericbody]

I'm sorry for worrying you.

[i'd do it again tho]

[turnonmycharm]

[he laughs]

That happens sometimes. Do you need me to fill you in?

What do you want to eat?

[beginningofwisdom]

[looking mildly amused at that]

Good morning.

[turnonmycharm]

[blinks at him]

. . . huh.

[turnonmycharm]

I'm Tristan. I don't know if I've been mentioned.

[aethericbody]

[brightens and leans in

Oh, so it's not dissimilar to carbuncles. Though a humanoid shape...

[starts scribbling down... numbers?? and formulas??]

[turnonmycharm]

[holy shit]

Well, I'd hate to bore you.

[beleaving]

[I have no idea what any of that means. MAGIC STUFF I GUESS. ??? Okay mages. Sword mages are also a thing.] If that was you rusty, my friend, I'd love to see you in your peak condition. [Hitting on? Knight hitting on? Admiring knightly strength? All of the above.]

[turnonmycharm]

That's the usual way of things, isn't it?

[beckoning him closer]

[turnonmycharm]

Anything special in mind?

[turnonmycharm]

Zeno, is it? I'm Tristan.

[monere]

But if you don't like that one, I've got plenty of other pet names on hand.

[beleaving]

A splendid idea! Fon was telling me the beaches here are marvelous!

[/haurchefant]

[onelastknight]

Perhaps you'll have the opportunity, if we fight together again.

[beginningofwisdom]

The form is mutable; the parameters change at my will and dependent on the prana I feed into it.

[that seems pretty legit, tbh]

[turnonmycharm]

You killed Gadreel. Great. Cool.

[looks incredulously at Maddy]

[beleaving]

Do, I would hate to see Zeno fall over.

[liarliarliar]

Naw, I think we're good there.
