ENDGAME

[cascadingfailure]

Who: ALL FRIENDS
Where: Game Tower!
When: Day 133, Evening

[ And the game ends!

And you find yourself all in the tower, mangled or not. You'll find that you have a mixture of wounds from both rounds of the game, as well as all of your memories of both rounds. As for NafunAI...

Well, she seems to not be around anymore, but her voice (though a bit louder and more robotic) booms through the room, informing you of what's up: ]

THIS GAME'S WINNERS ARE:
BARiTONES, WILD CITY, avante en garde, Heart Soldier Senshi, and sensitIV!

THIS UNIT HAS ALSO TABULATED AUDIENCE VOTES. ULTIMATELY, LILIS WON FOR OUTSTANDING MORAL FIBER, AND A FLAWLESS GAME. TAISHO ALMOST SURPASSED THEM, BUT THE VOTES WERE NOT IN THEIR FAVOUR. THEY LOSE.

ALSO LILIS' EXAMPLE OF WORKERS BEING ABLE TO HAVE NICE LIVES HELPED FAN THE FLAMES OF THE WORKER'S REVOLT EVERYONE PARTLY DIED IN LATER. PEOPLE THOUGHT THAT WAS COOL! SUPER, SUPER, SUPER COOL!

THANK YOU FOR PLAYING! ⭐

[ Yaaay! ]

It's to the side... Cobalt got us... upgrades.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Y'know. Like, taken care of. First aid. Ride back home. That kinda thing.

[malignstar]

[ Takes a deep shivery breath, trying to force the words to register in his panic-stricken brain. His fingers twitch again with the need to hold something. ]

... r-right... right.... we, we will...

[furrytailprince]

... I can't see.

[justfuckingtryit]

[Takes a breath in, and lets it out in a sharp exhale, some of the anger going with it, but a whole lot of the rest remaining.]

[He glances aside, not looking Sunshine in the eye. Takes a beat, and then another.]



[Offers his hand.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Oh? What kind?

[crossmyheartandhope]

...yeah. We'll - we'll sort that, too. But you probly don't wanna be here anymore, yeah? So let's get you comfy, and you can figure out what you wanna do.

[malignstar]

[ Stares at that hand before lowering his gaze ]

... s-sorry, I didn't, I didn't mean...

I just keep... failing them...

[malignstar]

J-Just soundproofing, balcony and, and some h-holo scenery.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I see.

[And hopefully Sunshine will help him point out the exact door when he gets close]

[justfuckingtryit]

[A beat longer, and he takes it back.]

And I'm telling you, it wasn't your fault in the first place. Not to fail at.

[malignstar]

[ Yes, he is doing that. His door has a sunshine charm hanging over the front. ]

That one...

[furrytailprince]

I want to be... at Taisho...

[malignstar]

... it... feels that way. P-Protecting people is... what I'm supposed to... do... If I can't do that...

[crossmyheartandhope]

Kay. We'll get you home, dude.

[Is he going to have to be carried? How bad is it, here.]

[furrytailprince]

[ He can at least still use his Makes Perfect power ]

All right...

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Please hold while he. Figures this out.]



[...okay. Okay, yeah, he is just going to Henshin it up. He is in rough shape; he has about zero perfect chance of lifting Okami right now.]

Kay. I'm gonna get you up now. You ready?

[justfuckingtryit]

You're in the same boat as everyone else in this fucking place.

[malignstar]

[ Tips his head back and takes more deep breathes, closing his eyes ]

[furrytailprince]

I,I just need you to make sure I don't... fall over. I can... make it.

[crossmyheartandhope]

S'cool, I can do like a fireman's carry or whatever.

Don't push yourself, dude.

[justfuckingtryit]

[He's quiet for a beat or two. Then:]

...come on. Let's get you out of here.

[malignstar]

[ Swallows and then nods ]

... yeah, we should... go.

[ He nibbles at his lip ]

I'm, uh, I'm probably going to... my, my legs are still kinda shot, n-not literally, just.. . I, I can walk, maybe, but...

[ He cuts himself off and turns his head to the side ]e

[justfuckingtryit]

You need someone to lean on?

[furrytailprince]

... you sound hurt too...
