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!]

First Riot

[Clear the deck - on an unoccupied part of the Chalice's hangar, a magic circle appears with a ringing, ticking sound. It remains just long enough to let anyone in the area get out of its radius, then vanishes quietly - and in its place is a figure in a white cloak, one who might look familiar, and yet not, to some of the crew. She looks around briefly before summoning a screen in the air before her, connecting to the ship's network.]

Everyone - I am Agent Fate Testarossa Harlaown, representing the Time-Space Administration Bureau. I'm here to lend assistance and support Captain Takamachi. I hope together we can overcome the troubles this planet faces.

And to those I've met before, I'm glad to be back.

Post-Mission 'Desperate Assault on Sanc Kingdom'

1. [The mission ended on a bittersweet note. And afterwards, you might run into a certain white-clad mage - now decked out in heavy looking gear - as she touches down on the deck. There's a serious look on her face.]

I'm sorry; inter-dimensional space has been rough lately, but I hurried back here as soon as I could.

I'm glad that everyone seems to be holding up since the last time we met, and while we're at it...I do have some good news to share...

---

2. [A while later in the hangar, Nanoha is holding a small holographic clipboard as she inspects the equipment she used in the mission: The Fortress and Strike Cannon. The individual parts are floating - occupying one of the mecha stations, and Raising Heart in its standby form is hovering just above her left shoulder.

If some of you couldn't tell already, this stuff is new even to Nanoha. That's also why she's inspecting it: to make sure it won't do anything she doesn't want it to. Her first impression?]

Mm...maybe they would have overdone it if they'd kept at this...

[And those are not words she just throws around. If you're curious, now's a good time to ask.]

Fifth Befriending - Game on!

1. (Srsmode)

[The shooting range. There's no better place on the Chalice to hone one's skills in marksmanship.

Those who visit today will be in for a surprise though - you'll find one of the Chalice's best ranged combatants performing...well...horribly. She's missing the target by a wide margin on each shot, and struggling a lot with her control too.]

Well, I knew this would be difficult but... I can do better than this!

[Will that stop her though? Heck no! As soon as one shot goes off (and misses), she raises her dominant hand again, and a pink glow returns to her palm.]

Lyrical, magical! Glimmers to be blessings, come into my hands. Ring and echo under the guidance. Divine Shooter... Shoot!

[Looks like she'll be there for a while...]

---

2. (Fun time!)

[It goes without saying that Nanoha is only human too...and a child, at that. She needs a break once in a while. So how does she spend her time when there's nothing to do and all her training and homework is done? Why, playing video games, of course!

It just so happens that those Burning PT terminals are easy enough to access; so over the course of the past few months, she's been making her way through the stages...slowly, but surely!

Right now, a customized Huckebein EX (painted in glorious ~~Gundam~~ Raising Heart colors) is making its way through the enemies on the 12th stage of the game.]

Remote Slasher... Go!

[And look at those things go!

She still has a lot of room for improvement though. Spectate? Maybe challenge her and show her how good you are?]

((OOC: For those who don't know, Burning PT is an in-universe game that features Banpresto Original mecha. Keep that in mind if you plan to tag!))

The First Page

[After what felt like hours of negotiation with Hadou Ruri Kurou was able to talk her (With the help of a few Chalice members and her butler.) into letting him serve as the pilot of Demonbane. As much as the Princess disliked it their situation had gotten dire, although she was able to convince everyone that keeping Demonbane in Arkham was a smarter idea in case the Black Lodge did make another attack on the city. Kurou would be able to summon the Deus Machina when he needed it. This also meant that Kurou would be working with the Chalice thanks to now officially being a drone in the Hadou Group.]

1. [Introduction]

Figured I should introduce myself at the very least, I'm Daijuuji Kurou apparently I'm to work with all of you while looking for the Black Lodge. Apparently I'm also supposed to be the pilot of Demonbane and the Master of Necronomicon.

2. [Al Azif prompt.]

[The pink haired grimoire was now back on the Chalice she seemed to be making herself at home staring at whatever new mechs might have joined the ship since she left.]

This won't do at all.

[She wasn't exactly impressed.]

Re-Befriendings: A long month

1. (Action)

[Today, the Chalice would be greeted by a familiar sight. One young brunette, in her regular clothes, conjuring a small pink sphere of energy on the ship's deck.

The sphere fades after a while, and she lets out a sigh of relief.]

Looks like everything's fine now. That's good.

Yes. Welcome back, my master.

Mmh. Thank you, Raising Heart.

[About four weeks had passed since Nanoha left the Chalice, and a lot had happened to her in that time too. While continuing her studies at home, she took part in a special training programme organized by the TSAB - something like a Top Gun training school for young mages. Not only did this improve her battle abilities, but her knowledge of magic as a whole.

Unfortunately, that didn't help her feel any less uneasy upon her return. Coming back a second time while knowing that the Chalice had fought continuously to save people everywhere was pretty difficult. She's taking her time to get acclimated to things again, though.]

...No matter what happens, I promise - I'll keep giving it my all.

[But for now, she's due for a break! So she's standing where she is with a juice can in hand and just enjoying the view. Bother?]

---

2. (Locked to Argi & Jeremy)

-Eeehh?! You're...!

[Of course, Nanoha's pretty stunned when she spots one of the former Adventus generals around, especially since she's met both of them at some point...

No, she still doesn't know what happened to you and how you made it, but she's actually glad that you're not gone for good.]

((OOC: Yeah, I'm on hiatus this month, but I figure it's best to get this up while I can still tag.))

Now with 100% less Imagin

[Nanoha's returned, although she experienced the Imagin thing for a while. Her hair however is still a brilliant white color, a sign of her massive power drain and interaction with Cosmic Energy. There isn't any sign of her regaining her hair color yet but she seems happy.]

Hey everyone, I'm back! I also cleared this with my mom and dad and they're letting me stay!

Post-Mission Pain

1. - Post-mission
[The first thing that Nanoha felt was absolute pain from her injuries despite the IV feeding her painkillers. She was sore all over and she felt half-cooked. She definitely didn't get off lightly this time, and her whole side was covered in bandages. She was also dressed in a hospital gown but most of it was stripped down to her waist in order to facilitate healing. Her arm and leg were elevated under pillows in order to support herself, and she winced at the sensation of being cooked.]

Ow... [managed Nanoha, wincing.]

2. - Later in the Week
[Nanoha's doing better for the most part, the doctors managing to accelerate her healing. Mid, Mejire and normal medicine helping her recover as well. Still, as she sucked on a juice box, she flexed her hand.]

I need to get stronger... better... toys I suppose. What do you think, Raising Heart?

[I will help you.]

[Nanoha smiled and nodded.]

Cosmic Minds

1. [Nanoha's listening to her music, a small portable player with earbuds in her ears as she works on her homework. She was relying on the Asura to transport her work back home so that her sister could hand it in for her when she was on her "extended trip". She was also mentally compiling a list of things to say to her family when she eventually told them of what was going on.]

2. [Having changed into her barrier jacket, and still in aggressor mode, Nanoha was finishing up with her exercises and knocked the pop can into the trash can, this time hitting her mark! She grinned as she looked at Raising Heart who laid to the side.] Raising Heart, are you running at full power?

[Yes. I am at 100% my master.]

That's good then! Say, Raising Heart, I have a question. What happens if someone plugs a different power source into you?

[Depending on the power available, I will adapt it through my systems and amplify your initial output by a percentage of the power. It will act like a Belkan Cartridge System.]

Ah that's good. I wonder what else I can plug into you. Any ideas?

[I do not know. But perhaps if you ask around for advice, it will become available.]

Post-Mission Thinking

1.

[Nanoha's in the arbortorium, having been treated for her shoulder. She was still in a sling but she was able to get out and walk around despite her exhaustion. For the time being, she was sitting underneath a large tree, humming to herself.]

2.

[Given that she was hungry, she went to get a meal. Currently, she was trying to cook by herself, not wanting to disturb anyone. You can see her trying to move a large pan with her good hand.]

3.

[It's around this time the next day that a care package arrives for Nanoha, and she's eager to tear into it. In there is cookies, clothing, clean undies (blush) and a couple of pairs of glasses. From it is a letter from Miyuki-nee who says to keep her head up. JUST what she needed. Thank you Lindy for telling her parents she needed a pick me up. You can see her wandering around in a cute new outfit despite her sling, and a pair of glasses on her nose.]

Because I feel like depressing people today

[After that weird gas attack and Gnocem assault, you might find Charles flitting about the ship in his IS. He's usually carrying Gnocem corpses here and there, forming a pile in one of the larger empty rooms. He's gathered quite the collection...and there's a good bit of blood on him, as well.

Strangely, he doesn't seem to have been asleep at all...]

Training

[1]

[Nanoha's doing some unusual training in the open spaces of the Chalice's bigger rooms. She had set up multiple targets and was moving large containers around. It was quite a bit of a strain on her as she had been at it for a while. But mastering a new spell was part in parcel of her training.]

[2]

[After a while, she had gotten a volunteer as Nanoha stood there, Raising Heart aimed at said person.]

I don't use these much so please tell me if the binds get too tight!

[And there she is casting binding spells of all kinds on people.]

[3]

[After all of that, she's hungry. Very hungry. And Nanoha is in the kitchen making herself a meal as she tries to get the large sandwich into her mouth.]

First Stars All Over Again

[1] Video

Hi everyone, I'm back. I had a restful trip and mom and dad send their best. I had to go back to refresh my excuse for staying with you all, and they seem all right with it. I brought cake, so please take some. There's about three in the fridge, and it's enough to feed everyone as long as they limit themselves to one slice each.

[2] Nanoha was back to full strength, despite the downer mood everyone was in. She had gone out to the practice rooms and she was knocking a juice can around with a Divine Shooter. Raising Heart was counting down the numbers as well.

[21, 25, 34...]

Once she got to 100, she knocked it into the trash, or at least tried to. "Awwww it bounced again?"

[3] Nanoha's been picking at her food, not really hungry as she worked on some math homework. She had returned with an armful of homework and she promised her mom and dad she would get it all done. Currently she was working on some mid-elementary math problems. The page was already half completed and she had scribbled trig equations in the lines.
