Post-Event Blues

Who: Everybody, everybody!
What: The battle is won. Now what?
When: The eleventh, twelfth, and onward
Where: Luceti
Summary: With Zompano dead and the cultists routed, Luceti is restored. Kind of.
Rating: F for Feels

On the eleventh, things were slowly breaking down. Memories of their true lives were breaking through. The village, scarred by the battle with the cultists, began to rebuild itself. Community buildings that had vanished were returned to their rightful places. The battle dome was uncovered from the earth that had covered it. Hundreds and hundreds of fake homes slowly faded away. Paved roads gave way to trees and grass. It was an incredible sight for anyone who was willing to sit aroun and watch it happen.

Things wouldn't be easy for the villagers, though. The memories perpetuated by the last ten days would not be easily removed. The feelings and hatreds it had created would take time to conquer and remove. Perhaps, in a way, that was Zompano's nastiest trick of all. The village itself may heal from his invasion, but it would take far more than a few Shifts to fix the people left behind.

Towards the end of the day, their wings returned. Much like some of the buildings, they seemed to just reappear, as if they had never been gone. Their barcodes became visible again as a singular reminder that they were, ultimately, just the property of another entity who as a whole were not much better than Count Zompano.

By the twelfth, the village looked as though nothing had ever happened. Sure, the contents of buildings might have been messed up or destroyed during the battles, but things were otherwise as they were supposed to be. The night before, people would have had to find their old beds to go sleep in, as they no longer possessed the old ones granted to them in another life.

The village was peaceful.

Modly Note: That wraps up the event. As noted in the prose above, you have the option to play up the after effects of the event more than in other ones. While it won't have the same impact universally, the Shift was constructed in such a way that people may have difficulty shaking off the emotions they developed during the event. In effect, it was a cruel send off to Luceti so they would have to deal with the loathing and hatred that came with the less desirable parts of it. Of course, that means the feelings of familial bonds will also persist for awhile as well. It's up to you, as players, to decide how much or little to play with it!

[Listless:] Only one?

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-08-27 01:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I know, right? I'm not even sure it broke.
endgames: (curious)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-08-27 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
'Charmed' might have been putting it too lightly. It sounds like you had pure luck running through your veins.

[But let's test that with a light nudge to the ribs anyhow, to make sure nothing really broke.]

[It smarts. He's not sure if it's broken or not, but he does feel pain there, and coils a little as a result. At the very least he has a bruise]

That I did.
endgames: (Thoughtful)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-08-29 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
[He notes it, and drums his fingers on the table.]

We should probably get someone to look at that...
generalflirt: (Far East Movement)

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-08-29 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it's just a bruise, but yeah. Probably.
endgames: (Eh)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-08-30 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[No doubt. If he's had that for a while, there'd be more problems by now if it were serious.]

I'll pen for someone to come take a look at it later.
generalflirt: (Mac and Devin)

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-09-01 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah huh. [And he smirks just a little. Oh well...]

I'm not sure I'll come through.
endgames: (Oho?)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-09-01 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Shikamaru's brow creases, but he waits for Masaomi to elaborate.]

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-09-01 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I mean... it sounds pretty good to get out of here, for a while.
endgames: (Conflicted)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-09-01 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
Aa. [He drums his fingers.] ...I get that, I think. And if you think that'll help you, take all the time you need.
generalflirt: (Want a cheese sandwich)

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-09-01 03:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[What would you know-

Irk]
Yeah, yeah.
endgames: (Whatever)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-09-02 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
You talk to me when you get back, though. All right?
generalflirt: (Search Me)

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-09-03 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, aren't I going to be back at the apartment? Plus, we're here right now.
endgames: (carry the four....)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-09-03 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Not that kind of talking.
endgames: (the clouds beckon)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-09-03 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
I want to know how you're doing when you get back, and I don't want your words to be fake. Not that they have been here, but we both know you're holding back.
generalflirt: (Spinal Tap)

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-09-03 07:58 am (UTC)(link)
Mmm. [And he folds his arms behind his head, looking up at the ceiling. Linda, for her part, isn't sure how to react, which is why he's being a fatty with the ice cream. But Masaomi-]

What's fake and what's real? In fact, I'm pretty sure that I know "fake" more than real, all things considered. Yori Kida seems far more alien than the likes of Lord General Kida.
endgames: (Bluff)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-09-03 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
[From what he knows of her, he could agree with that.]

The answer is different person to person. In your case? [He eyes the clock.] It's the truths you don't want to admit to yourself. Reality isn't glamorous.
generalflirt: (Yeah idek)

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-09-03 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Wouldn't I want to be glamorous?

[Oh well ]
endgames: (Side)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-09-03 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
You want to be happy more. And loved.

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-09-04 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
That's cold.

[No, it's just accurate. So much so he feels himself tearing up some, in spite of himself. The impact of that is... pretty strong]
generalflirt: (I'm like Peter Pan man)

[personal profile] generalflirt 2013-09-04 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Are you ever, boss?
endgames: (the clouds beckon)

1/2

[personal profile] endgames 2013-09-05 11:01 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know anymore.

[Because Shikamaru Harukawa was. A lot. He had too much pride to look for truths in such things, even when answers were staring him in the face. He worked too much to maintain friendships he hadn't had since grade school.

Actually, maybe that last one is true even of Nara Shikamaru, hm? He's never had to work at a friendship as he has here, with Katara and indeed Masaomi...]
