The Ultimate Anti-Climax of Ultimate History?

[insertshortrant.livejournal.com]

[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 ))

... It might be.

[ judging the distance of the surroundings ]

If not, then it's pretty damn close.

Found you with a giant diamond, and then you took me to sing karaoke.

...




We're pretty strange.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

I like the word adventurous more!

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Strange and adventurous, from day one.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

I really messed up-- I wasn't that careful when talking to you about the jewel.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

It would have been suspicious no matter what.

I did figure it out rather quickly though, didn't I?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

I could have said I was rich.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

And you just carry around a fist-sized diamond for kicks?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Different worlds, different cultures.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

I'm sure I would have eventually figured out people from Japan don't carry around large diamonds, no matter how rich.

[ still doesn't know british people mostly do not wear monocles... ]

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

[ that is exactly what he thought of, and is trying not to lol ]

You'd be surprised.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

[ oh what is so funny ]

I'm not that gullible.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Of course not.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... anyway.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

[ lols ]

Anyway.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

How soon do you think I would have figured it out? If I hadn't been given any major hints in the beginning, I mean.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Who knows? Zuha never did...

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

That's very true...

Oh well, there's not much point to thinking on it.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

The past is the past!

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Right. The fact is I know.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

You know?

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Well... about you. Both parts of you.

[ suddenly sounding embarrassed ] I- I'm sorry, I'm not sure where I was going with that...

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

No, go on!

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Well... I'm just... I'm happy you found me so trustworthy back then.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Things would be really different otherwise.
