WEEK SIX: ENDGAME

[cluedin]

FAREWELL

As Sunday morning comes, you'll find that nothing in the mansion has changed at all. The evils within have been expelled, a piping hot breakfast is served at seven, and the house is cleaned up in tip-top shape. In fact, everything appears to be as calm as ever as everyone is given freedom over the mansion.

All is quiet for a majority of the morning before there's a sudden rumble from the backyard. As guests rush to look, they will see hundreds and hundreds of ghostly figures rise up from the grave, immediately solidifying. Those whom have unattended business (such as reclaiming their items) will linger, but the rest will promptly leave the property. This was the final hold the house had over Master Blue and the guests. You have successfully severed the chains and freed everyone.

It's a little after noon that guests will hear a victory sort of fanfare being played on that familiar piano. As they're drawn to the ballroom, they will once again find Peach, Plum, and Pumpkin though perhaps dressed in different attire today. Plum plays the piano as Peach lounges on top to occasionally help with her tail as Pumpkin sits on the bench with her game. When the song has finished, they speak in unison.

"Congratulations everyone. The Master has a message for you."

The soft glowing orb from yesterday floats up from behind the piano, lingering next to the girls. Soon, everyone will hear a faint, echo-y tone that sends shivers up their spines once more inside their heads.

"Thanks for doing your part. You sure are smart. Please accept this gift."

The same unseen orchestra from your arrival begins to play as the lights brighten, a lavish feast spread before you and the mansion decorated instantly with balloons, streamers, and confetti. All guests will find themselves in party attire, though perhaps a little more relaxed. Your communication necklaces remain in tact, and seem to be yours for the keeping. They will continue to function even as you leave. On the table there lays a box of small green orbs, a sign reading "PORTALS" before it. It seems as though these are your way home when you're ready...and look at that. You aren't forced to return to where you came. Take your time and think of how you wish for your journey to proceed. And who knows? Maybe starting a new journey isn't so hard after all.

But goodbyes are never easy either. Time is yours, little monsters. Take all the time you need for your farewells.

[ ken will have stopped avoiding the table by this point but is still unable to make a solid choice. though apparently they can take multiple but that doesn't make things any better.... regardless, zenitsu can just hear calmness from ken. obviously he's apprehensive but he's at peace. ]

Hear what?

[swordflash]

I can hear everyone again.

[ he stands there, looking off into the distance, for a little while longer before he lowers his hand. he turns to ken, who sounds just about how he seems. ]

Where are you going, Ken?

[hamaoned]

Did you have special hearing from before?

[ since that's the only thing that he can suspect that could have changed since nothing else about him seems different... ]

And I'm probably going to go with Nick, but I also want to be able to go home from time to time.

[swordflash]

[ he nods, but doesn't elaborate as he searches the crowd for a face. ]

Is that right? Then you'd better pick up a lot of orbs.

[hamaoned]

[ who you looking for? either way, ken doesn't do more than just note it. ]

I guess so. [ he looks at the orbs closer before moving to pick two up. ] Eventually, I'll probably have to pick a place, I think. It's not like I can carry an infinite amount with me.

[ hmm. ]

What about you, Zenitsu? Are you going to go back home? Or are you planning on visiting some people?
