3.0 - week three

WEEK THREE
Last night might have been exhausting for any number of reasons - maybe it was the emotional

toll of dealing with those ghosts, or maybe you stayed up too late after watching Jim Shrok. Who knows, but Saturday is over, even if some of you haven’t quite left it behind and half spirits that are still hanging on, tethered to you and weighing you down…

But that’s not going to stop a new week from starting. There’s no breaks in an eight week course.

There’s very little fanfare to the start of your third week of the course, though it does seem like the fog has lifted even more. It’s a bit more of a trek down the abandoned streets of Estelline, but surely a mile is walkable? Or you could grab a bike or try to hotwire one of those cars in the mall parking lot… Whatever you plan to do this week is up to you. All you know is you've got some new locations to explore.

As always, Florence and Lorelei are available.

SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY

TASK LIST


( OOC Note: Luci, Mutsu, and Mae will each receive a small roomba! Congrats on the successful egg drop. It's a tiny little friend that cleans extra well, though this also means its trash compartment is a little smaller so it'll need to be cleaned more often. )

I just... I am a little anxious about leaving everyone. I don't think we've ever been in a situation where we couldn't just visit our friends after saying goodbye. We can always meet again.

[ He looks down. ]

Traveling worlds is not something you or I can do on a whim. Once this ends, that's it.

[ It is too sad to think about. ]
fabulation: (one more to end the show)

[ ...Oh. ]

You're right, this will likely be it. I doubt other worlds have the means for world travel like this one somehow did.

[ There's a small 'but' in there, however. He will move a hand to lightly and gently rest upon one of Chongyun's shoulders. ]

But, life is full of partings, right? Some more permanent than others.

...Still, maybe we can at least find a way to keep in touch somehow. Maybe it's a longshot, but I think it's not impossible since we've been all brought together like this. We'll just have to see, right?

Yes, you're right. We're never ones to give up, are we?

[ He smiles at Xingqiu, eyes crinkled with warmth. ]

That's why I'm glad that we're here, regardless of the downsides. We're here together and there's no one else I'd rather be with.
fabulation: (Kiss me)

Not at all. I can't imagine we'd be who we are if we did.

[ Ah...it's certainly a warmth that easily conjures a smile on his face. Chongyun's smiles are certainly priceless. ]

What a coincidence that we've been thinking along the same lines.

Our situation isn't ideal, but I'll admit...I think I would be at a loss if I didn't have you by my side.

[ Xingqiu remembers back in the museum how badly things went, and that is enough for him to know. ]

Heh, I doubt you'd be at a complete loss though. Your brilliant mind would have come up with a way to handle any situation thrown your way.

[ He says it like it's a fact. ]
fabulation: (the afterglow)

[personal profile] fabulation 2022-06-20 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ Of course he would, so serious...! An endearing quality, really. ]

Who, me?

It really wouldn't be the same! Even if I would really see something like this through to the end...
