EPILOGUE
So.
Juniper is dead. Lorelei and Florence are alive. And the rest of you, thankfully, are also alive and kicking.
The building is kind of a mess right now, and a lot of the citizens are in kind of disarray, confused and uncertain of what exactly is going on in the Camellia tower. Things are a bit of a mess right now, but what matters is that you’ve stopped things. The cycle of these experiments, suppression – it’s over.
Your markings are still here, however. You are free to try and figure that out, too (though the answer is, indeed, quite simple with the "B" toggle, and may be hand waved). Other than that, though, everything seems to be...stabilized. As good as they can be, anyway. Lorelei and Florence are around, for any last conversations. When you emerge, the sun is out, perhaps brighter than usual – though whether that’s because of joy from the citizens or confusion is anyone’s guess – and some of you are covered in blood, but you are here.
And you are ready to finally, finally return home.
---
(OOC: For anyone who's willing, Lorelei will be able to configure tablets to synch up with the portal here at Estelline. From there, they will be able to world hop to someone else's world; so the Estelline portal is now a hub, of sorts. It's not a direct world hop and it's a bit inconvenient, but it is a way for you guys to see each other again.
She will also ensure that those who are currently sleeping will be sent home in one piece.
All of this can be handwaved, or threaded out in the Lorelei thread.
Happy Good Ending, everyone!)

[ A munch of potato chips. Thanks, Gentaro. ]
I'm hoping you can unwind a little before you head back. It sounds like you'll be stressed out.

[ "Stressed out" is certainly an understatement... but he gives Hien a slight smile. ]
... But when the dust settles, I do hope you'll visit. My memory of Shibuya hardly compares to the real thing.
[ When, not if. The meaning of that one word doesn't escape Gentaro. It's not that he's the hopeless sort--things always have a chance of working out, after all.
He's never expressed a hope like this. It's strange and new, but it feels something close to right. ]

[ :3c ]
I want you to take me to all the good spots in Shibuya.
