Redi Domum

[stringmods]

Who: The missing visitors and you. Open to everyone.
Where: MAGI Labs
Summary: After being violently removed from the Tower of Animus, everyone is returned 'home'.
Warnings: None

There was a tight clench behind your navel, the sensation of something dragging you through the fabric of time and space itself... it was an unpleasant sensation, almost sickening. Those of Hinoto-Ri had vanished from the tower completely when the clock struck midnight from what had just happened, removed from that reality. It had happened with such abruptness that it was downright disorienting to observe. There was no chance for a hurried goodbye, no chance of even letting out a surprised scream...

Those of Hinoto-Ri were dragged back to their own world with very little grace, and for a dizzying and wild thirty seconds, they suffered from the sensation of thick tentacles grasping and yanking their bodies this way and that through a swirling blur of matter. Where were they going? What had caused this?

After those sickening moments that seemed to last far longer, they were unceremoniously shoved out of the Shining Trapezohedron in a stream of bright lights, and into what looked like a giant room filled with computer screens. At least it didn't appear to be the Mictlan, like when the other group had returned.

Pray that you weren't on the bottom of the pile...

Now there was a quiet hum, as an alarm went off. Lights shone brightly upon you as scientists outside were running scans to determine you weren't harmful from your trip. That left you time to think.

You had finally met him...

Nyarlathotep, the Crawling Chaos. He'd taunted some of you, shown you another world you had been sent to save...but in the end, nothing much had changed. Perhaps there was small solace that it was still standing and not completely obliterated as had been his plan. The questioned remained, however...

Where was He now? ...you could figure that out later. There were reunions to be had first.

He appreciates the space, even if he doesn't vocalize it, and tries to figure out what he can even say.

"... Hi."

That's a start, at least.

[killervocabulary]

Ginia nods once in answer, acknowledging the greeting. A few moments pass before she speaks again. "I take it that wasn't a good trip, then."

[nofairy]

"Not really. There were... a lot of really strange and scary things there..."

Everything just had seemed wrong, even the sort of normal looking parts.

[killervocabulary]

There's another nod, though a lot more sober than before. She takes a few more steps forward. There's still a bit of distance, though. "I see. I am glad you've made it back safely, though."

[nofairy]

"Yeah... I just... some of the things that the... who we were sent to find... some of the things he said were..."

He cuts himself off, and wipes his face.

"He said there was a timeline where I died and Ganondorf took over..."

[killervocabulary]

...well, what can one even say to that?

Ginia steps closer, slowly, stopping when she gets to arm's length. "Whether that is true or not, what matters is whether you succeed or fail," she says quietly, but with a slightly stern air. "The you that's standing here, that is."

[nofairy]

Link's quiet for a few moments, and then nods. "... Yeah. And... I already beat him... I just worry, since time travel can be weird and mess things up."

[killervocabulary]

"Aye, time itself is a fickle thing. Dealing with it is inherently worrisome," she responds, reaching out to place a hand on the boy's shoulder. "Worrying is good. Being consumed by it, however, is not."

[nofairy]

He leans into her touch, nodding a little. "Things will turn out okay in the end."
