Phase Twenty-One: Your Standard Fairy Tale Happy Ending

[The world has been saved, hopefully for the last time in a long time. The celebrations - and the mourning - have started, and in a lot of places are still continuing. But the victory isn't the only thing to celebrate - and with a lot of help, and a lot of favours, Laura and Lily have extended an invitation to the Chalice crew, past and present, to join them. If you were nearby, chances are the invitation was hand-delivered by a dutiful Servbot.]

1. The setup
[With the looming deadline of the closing portals, things move quickly! Invitations are sent, travel is arranged, a venue is prepared. What had been the White Chalice's Arboretum - now an open-air grove in what's set to become a lush forest - is the site of the ceremony itself, while the celebrations afterwards will take place in Gucun. There's a lot to be done to make ready. Are you helping, or seeking out one of the brides beforehand?]

2. The ceremony
[It's only fitting that Captain Smith should officiate. He's waiting at an arch set up by the flowerbeds of the Arboretum, where the happy couple met, where Laura's tended her memorial to her friends from before the Chalice and to those who've passed on since. Between the Kwan daughters, Epimetheus, and a brace of Servbots you shouldn't have any trouble finding your seat, even if Xue Yi is a little preoccupied ensuring Prometheus behaves. There's some time before the wedding party arrive, to talk amongst yourselves - or with some of the other guests present, who include Laura's overwhelmed-looking parents!]

3. The reception
[Of course, the real point of a wedding is the party afterwards! There's food, drink, and music - Miki pulled some strings, and Pit's showing how Skyworld does catering. After the recent battle, perhaps this is a chance to see some long-absent faces in more peaceful circumstances, or to say goodbye. Or are you just here for the embarrassing speeches?]

[This is a joint mingle post, open to dropped and retired characters as well! For all prompts, please specify whether it's Laura/Lily you want to talk reply, or others!]

Like...this?

[Woah, suddenly she's super short...and then the Kurou she knows is there!

She doesn't freak out or anything though.]

...I don't really understand...but at the same time, I think I get it...

It seemed like such a long time ago, too.

It was so much easier to do this back then.

[Kurou pats the Nanoha of the past on the head. A second later the two turn back to their present forms.]

That was in the past though, we should leave it there. Nothing good ever comes out of wallowing in memories.

[The strange man moves his hand away and instead raises a glass.]

Let's look forward to the future.

[It was actually nice getting to relive that again, but...]

Mmn, you're right. We've been through so much to get here, I'm sure everyone else wouldn't want that, either.

[Now back to her adult self, Nanoha gently lifts her own glass from a nearby table.]

...To the future.

To the future.

[His own glass is lightly tapped against Nanoha's and the Elder God finishes his drink all at once.]

Take care Nanoha.

[And the world resumes. The man disappears just as quickly as he arrived.]
stardreadnought: (That's...)

[For a while she tries to reach out.]

Ah...wait...!

[And Nanoha realizes she was just reaching for nothing.

Her own glass is still in her hand, but...]

...

Was it just...?

[A dream? A hallucination...?]

[It sure seems like it, but when Nanoha looks down the empty glass is sitting on the floor.]

[personal profile] stardreadnought 2014-02-24 02:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I see...you never really left.

[The small, winged red sphere floating next to her flashes as she picks up the empty glass.]

Master, is something the matter?


I'm fine, Raising Heart. Someone we know decided to pay a visit, that's all.

[Then, she looks off into the distance, away from the party.]

...Take care, Kurou-san.
