10/29 --- Δ Haggard Traveler’s Reprieve?????
Who: ??? & you!
What: Something's starting...
Where: Δ Haggard Traveler’s Reprieve (Twilight Shoreline)
When: Sunday, 10/29
Warnings: Will be added as needed.
( Perhaps intrigued by the mail allegedly sent by CC Corp, perhaps visiting the Shoreline by chance, gating into the Area goes as it always does, until the music stays cut for longer than it should, and the black, liminal transition screen lingers for a little too long. The seconds tick on. They near turn to minutes. You can't struggle, you can't argue— you can only simply be, and it occurs to you that maybe you'll be trapped midway here, conscious, for maybe forever.
And then you hear static. Your vision warps; pixels strain into words, blurred and unstable. You see them combat for your attention; you see— )
( And then you load in. )

No. No, deep down, he... he feels what's true. The last scraps of data left.]
This... is Macha's.

[He presses it into Tarvos' hands? making sure Tarvos takes it and then straightens, swaying a little as his blue scarf flutters around him]
I don't think I need to tell you what it means.

I wish he could have seen it.

Unlovable, unknowable, unforgiving, undeterred, impervious Macha.
Indescribable Macha.
Determined and insistent to be alone. For that's what the data had said.
He looks down at the photo silently, as though studying every moment of color, every facial feature.]
If he did...
...maybe he found his vengeance after all. Against his unrequited love.
Against his loneliness.
...
I'm...
I'm so glad.
