[ And so, the sun sets on another beautiful day on the island.

A large 'HAPPILY MARRIED' banner is draped across the end of the Titanic, sitting magnificently in the dock, good as new. The gorilla boat crew is quick and happy to reassure you there are no icebergs on the path of its maiden voyage.

You feel at ease, being in the hands of the good and talented captain. In the aftermath of it all, you are shore you're leaving the island a better person, the island might have been a beach at times, but altogether, maybe it wasn't so bad, even though it'll be enough weirdness to tide you over for a while, before you make waves back...



... But for now, you think you'll enjoy the buffet and the sandwhichisthere, and maybe bid some final, final goodbyes.

Happy sails ♥ ]

I know. It's very precious to me, and I've had it for as long as I can remember.

[ taking his hand and pressing the necklace into it ]

But maybe this jewel will be enough of a good luck charm to help you find the one you need. Or... maybe it's the selfish part of me, that wants you to take an important part of me with you when you go.

[ Nods once before hooking it around his neck, and placing the jewel under his shirt. ]

[ And almost as quickly as he did that motion, he leans over and kisses her. ]

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

[ She needed that; returning that kiss something fierce and pulling him into a tight embrace. ]

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

[ His hands are on her lower back, and he laughs a little into the kiss. But it's a short pause, and he doesn't hesitate to return the kiss. ]

[ Laughter is contagious. Once they stop, she's smiling and chuckling a bit too, and maybe there's a faint glimmer at the corner of her eyes, but she won't cry. ]

Kaito, I...

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Yeah?

... thank you.

Thank you so much, for everything. For the roses, for being there, for breaking my stupid computer, for showing me so many things that were right in front of me, but I couldn't see. I owe you so much-- I didn't know people like you existed in the world anymore. And maybe they don't, back on Auldrant.

If that's the case, then I'm so... so lucky. Thank you...

[ She'll be burying her face in his shirt and mumbling the next part. ]

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

[ Wraps his arms around her. ]

You don't have to thank me for anything. It was my pleasure meeting, knowing, and dating you, Mystearica. And I'll gladly do it again-- when we see each other again, we can pick things back up.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... I'd like that. When we see each other again, I'll tell you all about how we set things right back home. I definitely won't lose, I'll come back. I promise. If I have to wait, I'll wait.



I love you.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

I was hoping you'd say that.

[ Laughs quietly, but quickly sobers up. ]

But if you do find happiness with someone else, please don't worry about me.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid you've made too much of an impact for me to change my mind.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

[ He wants to say that people change, and circumstances change, and even feelings-- but he doesn't. She'd argue with him over it. ]

[ And he rather not think about her getting together with Luke. Ugh. ]

... Right.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

[ Oh, she knows all that. Her entire life has taught her that lesson personally.

But precious things in her life tend to be too scarce to ever let them go, so have some reassurance in another kiss.

It says 'you are worth kicking Van's ass and saving the world for, if I can come back to you.'

If kisses could talk, that is. ]

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

[ Silly, you were going to do that anyway. ]

[ But he would appreciate the thought either way, and he'll show his appreciate by kissing her back. ]

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

[ If anything, it's even more incentive-- but suddenly, an idea! ]

H- hey, do you think... ah, when you looked around... did it seem like the boat from the movies?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Oh? It's the same boat, you know.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Same boat? W- well...

[ AHEM ]

Do you... want to move this conversation down a few decks?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

[ holds his arm out! ]

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

[ and takes it ]

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

[ and leading the way! ]

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

[ and humming a little bit as they walk ]

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

What does your world look like, Tear?

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... It's beautiful. Full of countrysides and small villages, but grand cities like Baticul and Grand Chokmah-- I think you saw St. Binah in that scrapbook we found.

I lived most of my life under the surface, though, so I haven't seen it all yet...
