Let 'em say we're crazy, I don't care about that!

Who: Everyone!
What: The final day. Moonfall. Twenty-Four hours remain. How do you spend it?
When: The 30th, all day
Where: Anywhere
Summary: The last day. The end has come. The moon is coming down and piercing the barrier. Nothing can stop it.
Rating: It will vary.


Details are here. But here's a recap and expansion!

By the time morning hits Luceti, the Moon has begun to breach the barrier, noticeable by how the barrier will fluctuate about the Moon's face in strange ribbons of energy. The oceans and lakes begin to rage as they are caught by the Moon's gravity. The ground begins to quake in an unsettling way. Small and harmless tremors that will slowly intensify over the course of the day. With the Moon already partway through the barrier, it will be noticeable that it is not quite as large as the real Moon. Though quite vast, the Moon itself does is not quite the entire size of Luceti, but is large enough to span the entire village and more. The Moon's angered face does not cease for a moment, even as it becomes the only sight in the sky.

Yet it remains in the sky, slowly breaking through the barrier, and proving indestructible in spite of all that is thrown at it. In the evening it will begin to cause gravitational disturbances, drawing up debris and small objects into the air. When it finally reaches midnight, the bottom of the Moon will be one mile above Luceti. At that point, all will suddenly black out and know no more. What becomes of the Moon? Does Luceti go splat? Will CJ finally get his moon rocks? Stay tuned!

...It is also made of rock.

[lostinmyway]

That's all right. We can just be careful.

[Drink your wine, Grune.]

[paladinlost]

I truly doubt there is any way to be half as careful as that would require.

[lostinmyway]

Do you think so?

[paladinlost]

Moon rocks are sharp and heavy.

...And also this one.

[lostinmyway]

Oh. That is a problem.

Haha.

[paladinlost]

And more than a small one.

[lostinmyway]

Oh well. I'm sure everything will work out in the end.

[paladinlost]

Of course it will. It has to.

[lostinmyway]

[She nods.] If it isn't all right, then the story isn't over yet.

[paladinlost]

No stories should ever end in Luceti, then.

[lostinmyway]

[That earns him a puzzled look. What does he mean by that?]

[paladinlost]

There always seem to be new problems here, be it because of the experiments or the new arrivals.

[lostinmyway]

Oh, but they're always so interesting.

[paladinlost]

Some, perhaps, but the other threaten my family too much for my tastes.

[lostinmyway]

My, really? That isn't good at all.

[paladinlost]

Especially that one time we forgot we were related...

[lostinmyway]

You forgot?

[How could anyone forget their family?]

[paladinlost]

Only because of the experiment.

[lostinmyway]

My, that wouldn't be a very nice experiment at all.

[Ironically, she doesn't realise it, but that was the experiment that kicked off her massive, ongoing crush, and so she can only think of it with gratitude.]

[paladinlost]

Indeed, even if it allowed me to meet quite a few people.

[lostinmyway]

Oh, really? Who did you meet?

[paladinlost]

Noel and Nu, Kouki, Asbel, Tear, Amiti...

[Half a million kids, really.]

[lostinmyway]

[At one name in particular, she perks up.]

Oh, is Amiti your friend, too?

[paladinlost]

...Somewhat.

[Grandson-not-grandson or something, but that's complicated.]
