The Ultimate Anti-Climax of Ultimate History?

[So, all of you islanders have been recovering from the horrors of the Zombie Island Mish-Mash of Nuclear AWESOME, doing your island-y things. That's cool, so has Ed, off being his usual slightly-reclusive self and blowing things up in his Gilligan-lab to pass the time. Life returns to what passes for normal here, right?

...and then there's the note. Of course your first thought is 'Oh God, another event?' as would be the logical train of thought--

Wait a minute. Wedding invitation? Of the island and--WHAT?! And on top of that you're free to leave for home or wherever you like?]

...there's no way. This has to be a trick.



(( MINGLE POST HO!!! Are you skeptical of this ~*gift from the heavens*~ as Edward is? Are you one of the insanely hopeful that shall plan for where you'll go? Need to start making tearful goodbyes to your long-time buddies? Shanghai some fellow islanders to your homeworld for nefarious purposes? Get pissed at being brought here recently just to leave? Flip out and go find some Black Materia to call down Mete--wait.

So yeah. Post, mingle, have fun! And assume this is the day of the note-arrival, obvs. Mods, if this is out of line, feel free to stake me out for the vultures. *A*b ))

I'll see to it that one way or another it does. Even he's got somewhere else he belongs.

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-10 10:37 am (UTC)(link)
... Right. Maybe even another mother penguin is looking for him.
skirtingdanger: (Idiots go on that side of the internet.)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-10 10:39 am (UTC)(link)
Right! We found him on his own, so his mother's gotta be out there somewhere, too.

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-10 10:41 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure the island wouldn't leave him all on his own here, anyway. He basically arrived the same way we did.

... Well, similar.
skirtingdanger: (You just want to watch me fall.)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-10 10:45 am (UTC)(link)
Then it's settled! We won't have anything to worry about after all.

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-10 10:47 am (UTC)(link)
Mmhm...

How is everything over at the blimp?
skirtingdanger: (Did I leave /y/ on at home?)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-10 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
Hm-- kind of quiet, actually. Not much has been going on over there.
skirtingdanger: (We'll float above the ocean.)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-10 10:56 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, Alice is gone.

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-10 11:00 am (UTC)(link)
Mm... like I said, it seems like quite a few people are missing.
skirtingdanger: (We're not related at all.)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-10 11:03 am (UTC)(link)
So it was as easy as waiting it out, huh? Sheesh, no wonder everything else never seemed to work...

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-10 11:06 am (UTC)(link)
... I feel ridiculous. I spent a lot of time searching for a way off.
skirtingdanger: (As the cool kids say: FML.)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-10 11:08 am (UTC)(link)
I kind of do, too, but if any of us had really known...

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-10 11:11 am (UTC)(link)
... At least it was the right thing to do. Even if we hadn't known whether it'd work or not, it wouldn't feel right leaving things as they are.
skirtingdanger: (Default)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-10 11:14 am (UTC)(link)
The important part is that we tried, right? And, well... It was definitely better than sitting around doing nothing!

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-10 11:32 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly. So I don't regret it.
skirtingdanger: (It's not all that bad... right?)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-11 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
[a nod] Neither do I.

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 08:20 am (UTC)(link)
... Good luck, Maka. With what you need to do back home.
skirtingdanger: (Default)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-11 08:25 am (UTC)(link)
Haha... Thanks. Same to you, though! Whatever it is, it sounds just as important.

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you. I think everyone here is fighting an important battle back home.
skirtingdanger: (Checkmate.)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-11 08:30 am (UTC)(link)
Let's see to it that we can finally finish them all, too.

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
And then--

Maybe, this won't be the end.
skirtingdanger: (Default)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-11 11:32 am (UTC)(link)
.. Do you think so?

[identity profile] mystearious.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 11:38 am (UTC)(link)
Stranger things have happened.

I speak from experience.
skirtingdanger: (Default)

[personal profile] skirtingdanger 2010-11-11 11:42 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, they have... But if this is really it, I wouldn't even know where to begin trying to find everyone again.
