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 ))

There is. Things that could be seen as her figuring it out are, in truth, her almost getting found out.

And Rudolf's own prediction. As well as other instances.

Perhaps now you understand Battler's ultimate conclusion that he must face.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

[Nods.] It'll be difficult for him.

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

...

I suppose this is another reason I am no longer the Beatrice of Rokkenjima.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

...because that is known?

Or you feel a bit bad for Battler?

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

Neither.

I didn't open this game for you to solve it, after all.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

...that is true.

But when it comes to giving you what you really want...it really does rely on him, doesn't it?

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

Of course.

Regardless, we will see where this decision takes me.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

...well, it's not like it's the first time we might have done something to the sea of kakera.

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

Hmmm.

Right, I have a painfully blunt and embarrassing question for you.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

...what is it?

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

Was the Sorcerer in love with me?

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

[feajhroiwqjeoiwjeiwjeiowqewqijewq h-he wasn't expecting that.]

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

[ She did say painfully blunt and embarrassing! ]

For what it's worth, I don't consider the two of you one in the same. Probably about as much as you view me the same as the detective Beatrice.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

... [H-how does he answer. He doesn't want to reveal how much he actually REMEMBERS, but he doesn't really want to lie and aaaaaah, what did that guy even feel anyway?!]

It's....hard to...

[Actually, what DID he feel? He got a lot of...blurry stuff from there, with that whole two world thing.]

It's...kind of muddled. I mean, he loved you, but what kind of love... [He wasn't one hundred percent sure. But there WAS that whole multiple personality thing PLUS the memories...]

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

... aha. I get it. You don't have to say anything else.

[ she gives you a bit of a YOU MADE A KAKERA WHERE WE'RE SOULMATES, WAY TO GO look, but otherwise is shrugging it off ] The love that opponents must share is always needed, is it not? I won't fluster you anymore.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

.... [Turning red.]

I-it's not like I get everything that happened! [Okay, yes he did. It was just the whole identity issue that made things all weird.]

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't either. Even though we flipped roles in my story, there was a lot that was different...

Either way, I was curious.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

...kind of required, just when you consider the gender roles, let alone everything else.

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

...

Regardless of how they felt for one another, I hope things turn out for the best.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

...

I am sure if that kakera does come to exist, it will.

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

Even with the idiot detective?

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

[Chuckles.] Even with the idiot detective.

[bitchcrafts.livejournal.com]

One can always hope.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

That's right. That's part of gambling, after all.
