“{You’re definitely an interesting fellow, I’ll say that much.}”

“{I’ve never really found merit in breaks, they let you think too much.. that isn’t what you need, you’re.. you. It’s ok to worry, it’s ok to try to be stoic about all of it. You’ve done very well with all of this, even if you could’ve done better, it doesn’t mean you’ve done poorly.}”
<...>
<Thank you...>
<Guess that does make me feel better...>
<...>

Dark gets up, clapping.
<...I'd think some people do need breaks to be more effective in the long run, avoid burnout and all that.>
<Buut, well...you're right. Probably time to get back to it.>


“{… Say, when all of this nonsense is said and done, what do you think you’ll do? Stay here?}”

“{You strike me as the sort to already have some enemies, and not because you’ve made them yourself.}”
<...Eliminate the Daybreak presence here, mainly.>
<We may have something of a truce going on, but...once Fluxxation's gone, we're more than likely going to come to blows again.>



Meanwhile, Mae's wounds should be covered up by now, as Sarah starts covering her body in an earth cast to restrict her movements. She looks off-handedly at Lightning.

"{'No rest for the wicked', as they say...}"

"{... Stupid expression.}"

<...Eliminate the Daybreak presence here, mainly.>
<We may have something of a truce going on, but...once Fluxxation's gone, we're more than likely going to come to blows again.>
"{When you've got the time, would you mind telling me more about these 'Daybreak' people..? I'd be interested in what sort of threat they're able to pose.}"

Meanwhile, Mae's wounds should be covered up by now, as Sarah starts covering her body in an earth cast to restrict her movements. She looks off-handedly at Lightning.
Mae still has her eyes shut tight, trying to keep her breathing slow.
 
"{'No rest for the wicked', as they say...}"

"{... Stupid expression.}"
<Stupid...?>

"{When you've got the time, would you mind telling me more about these 'Daybreak' people..? I'd be interested in what sort of threat they're able to pose.}"
<Yeah, maybe another time.>
<I'd be happy to tell you about them though.>

Dark floats off a bit, creating a small panel in a skeletal hand, before dissipating both.
<...>
<I was thinking of practicing my Xiter'ing...>
<Not using Coral, obviously. I'd probably make myself explode by accident.>
<I'm just worried the Coral might cause some...side effects even if I don't actively use it at all...>


Mae still has her eyes shut tight, trying to keep her breathing slow.
After a few minutes, Sarah would have Mae's body well-covered in a rocky cast to minimise her movements.
She stands up.
"...Alright then, Mae. You should be ok now...until we can get back to base to find a good healer."
 
<Stupid...?>

"{You've got quite a lot up your sleeve, don't you?}"

After a few minutes, Sarah would have Mae's body well-covered in a rocky cast to minimise her movements.
She stands up.
"...Alright then, Mae. You should be ok now...until we can get back to base to find a good healer."
If Mae even heard her, she doesn't acknowledge it, merely keeping her jaw tight and her eyes clamped shut to the point her eyelids are quivering.
 
"...Huh, damn, now I sort of feel bad but it's what needs to be done..."

Lightning would move slightly, but, probably isn't going to be heading anywhere on her own for a while still.
 
"{You've got quite a lot up your sleeve, don't you?}"
<Comes with practice and stuff, I suppose.>
Dark twirls his panel slowly around him.
<…>
<I like magic. And I like being able to use it to my advantage in battle.>
<So…I’ve had a lot of practice with duels and such, using magic in that way when I'm not reading about it.>
<Kind of have to pick up tricks when your opponents get stronger and stronger...and when you need to protect those you care about.>
<Half the time it's fun. The other half...>


If Mae even heard her, she doesn't acknowledge it, merely keeping her jaw tight and her eyes clamped shut to the point her eyelids are quivering.
"...Huh, damn, now I sort of feel bad but it's what needs to be done..."

Lightning would move slightly, but, probably isn't going to be heading anywhere on her own for a while still.
Sarah sighs.
"...Well..Lightning seems to not be good."
"Might have to carry her.."

Sarah gently raises Mae onto a rock table, of sorts, before dusting her hands off and walking over to Lightning. Draucon follows with Eve, while Pol still is silent.
"...Fortunately, I should be able to carry the two of them in a safe manner. Just going to take a while."
"You can't move them that fast, huh."
"Earth magic isn't designed for speed, Draucon. Not with this much careful movement needed."
 
Father Garundel slowly staggers to his feet, looking pretty roughed up and worn out, but able to walk at least.

"I could create some... portals, it just might be... slow going, given my.. injuries."

Sarah nods to them.
"...That would be helpful, yes."
She then walks over to Lightning to start slowly raising them up on their own earth table.
 
Father Garundel "looks" around for a bit, taking a few wobbling steps forwards as a palm begins to glow a dim golden color, ensuring the group is all relatively in good enough shape to move, or at least, able to be moved.

Sarah, Eve, Draucon, and Pol are all ready.

<...>
<Maybe we should think about heading back.>
 
Father Garundel turns his head to where Seraph and Fluxxation fought, giving a sad sigh whilst he turns he slowly turns to cast his blind gaze across the still steaming craters and cracks.
 
<...Well, I'll get going now then.>
Dark starts floating back to the base clearing.
<Gotta check on the others sooner or later...>

Father Garundel turns his head to where Seraph and Fluxxation fought, giving a sad sigh whilst he turns he slowly turns to cast his blind gaze across the still steaming craters and cracks.
Sarah walks over to them.
"...Everything alright?"
 
Avari just grunts, silent for a moment.

"{Try not to get yourself killed early though, yeah?}"
<...I'll do my best.>

As Dark floats along, he just thinks to himself...
...
Thinks of his friends, having a good picnic with each other and himself...
Vinessa the flower, Draucon, Luis, and that human, Viren...


"You see now what we're squaring off with now.. don't you?"
Sarah, after staring for a bit, nods slowly.
"...Reminds me of someone."

Avari grows silent, not wanting to pry.

Sarah, after staring for a bit, nods slowly.
"...Reminds me of someone."
Garundel grunts, turning his head to somewhat face her, rolling one of his shoulders a bit, loud popping coming from his old joints.

"Hmm?"
 
Avari grows silent, not wanting to pry.
Dark feels around himself in the real world as he holds onto the memory.

"...Soooo."
"...?"
"What is it."
"..We've...been through a lot...haven't we."
"Obviously."

Vinessa took another sip from the glass set next to her pot, herself being in the pot, on the black and white picnic blanket. A strawberry milkshake.
"...I'm glad I met you people. So...uh...thank you, guys."
"..."
"No problem, V."


Garundel grunts, turning his head to somewhat face her, rolling one of his shoulders a bit, loud popping coming from his old joints.

"Hmm?"
"...Fluxxation, you said they were?"
Sarah puts a hand on her hip as she waits for the group to move.
"I mean, my boss had to use Davk to empower himself to that level though..."
"And yet it still took Draucon and his friends...a lot to take him down. I can't tell if this Fluxxation is stronger or not, however."

"Be mad about it." Draucon crosses his arms as he looks away into the forest, annoyed.

Avari remains silent, seeing if there’s more to come.

“… he’s had the chance to kill me several times. He hasn’t.”

Garundel sounds distant, as if lost in thought.

“This is all a game to him.. a game of purpose and passion, he thinks he’ll be without worth if left with nobody to hunt.. he-..”

“He’s more than capable of ending all of this right now if he wants to..”
 
Avari remains silent, seeing if there’s more to come.
Dark stuffs a chicken leg into his black sphere head, absorbing it as he breaks it down in his body.

For now he just tries to enjoy being in the moment, Draucon wolfing down his own chicken legs (there is a large growing pile of bones next to him in a plastic bag) while Viren eats noodles and Luis eats some rice cakes.
...It's kind of obvious who the large bowl of chicken legs was for, mainly.

Vinessa, meanwhile, is digging into a nice steak next to her strawberry milkshake.


<Isn't it ironic, Avari, that V's big on meat despite being a plant..?>
<...To think I don't appreciate these things enough...>

"...He seems kind of foolish to me, allowing us all to live this long then."
Sarah shrugs.
"But, then again, I'm not a robot with an unlimited lifespan in a gigantic spaceship hellbent on destruction."

"{V...}"

"{... What happened to her? Forgive my bluntness, but is she dead?}"


"...He seems kind of foolish to me, allowing us all to live this long then."
Sarah shrugs.
"But, then again, I'm not a robot with an unlimited lifespan in a gigantic spaceship hellbent on destruction."
His voice still hoarse and lost, Father Garundel answers.

"A fool, yes, but he's got the firepower to back whatever twisted mindset he wants to adopt.."

"He wants a performance, a show to make it worth finally losing that 'purpose'.."

Garundel runs his tongue across his lips and down his maw, clearing his throat after, his hoarseness gone.

"Well... How's about heading back to the base then?"

"Ready when you are."

He lowers a hand, opening his palm as it begins to give off a gentle golden glow.
 
"{V...}"

"{... What happened to her? Forgive my bluntness, but is she dead?}"
<…>
<Huh?>

Dark shakes his head as the memory pauses.
<Geez, I start getting sentimental and you immediately think she’s dead?>
<Pfft…>

Dark internally laughs a bit.
<She’s fine. She’s a fighter, through and through.>
<Guess she just hadn’t had the time to say she was thankful until after Light’s first defeat.>

“…ready.”
Sarah sort of watches the palm as she waits on Garundel to make a portal.
