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 ))

Of course not.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... anyway.

[ 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.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

[ slight nod ] Yeah.

Kaito, I... I've told you a lot about my world, haven't I?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

[ nods as well ]

You have.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

There's a little bit I don't think I have. I've told you the situation and what I have to do, but... I never told you why some of those things are the way they are. Why Van is doing what he is.

Would you like to know?
