POST-GAME IRL PARTY LOG
Who: All the living players
What: Reunion party
When: Post-game
Where: ?
Warnings: none for now
[ It has been several months since the incident. Recovering from your body being in disuse for around two months must have been hefty, as well as your other commitments as well. Hopefully, everyone has recovered to an extent, because no matter where you are, the living players will receive the following in their mailbox: an invitation to a reunion party at a location near the beach between the ex-beta testers of Fragment, a bank card, and a 4-digit pin to said card from "Oriade". The invitation card will mention the following:
Being rich has its benefits, surely. When the plane lands with their luggage and all (if you brought any. please bring some), they'll be taken to a house that doesn't seem like much, but once they walk inside, it is actually very big! There are numerous rooms inside the house. The kitchen is stocked with everything you can think of with some dude(?) preparing all the food (he's the chef. don't worry about him). There is sure to be loads of different kinds of food that can cater to everyone's tastes. Yes, there is alcohol. Get some free rich ass liquor. No, you cannot smuggle any. That dude(?) will be keeping tabs. Sometimes there's a maid or two(? or is that the same one) running around and cleaning up after everyone. If you want something, go get it yourself. Self-service only.
There's a walkway in the backyard that's also wheelchair-accessible that leads to the beach! Enjoy that too.
But for the main attraction, the server burning. ]

The invitation card will mention the following:
- A very convenient location nearby you with access to a small, private plane. For security purposes, you'll be told to list your in-game name, real name, and class before boarding.
- The bank card contains $10,000 as some sort of "compensation" for everything that happened because of the Fragment incident. He knows it can't replace everything (like lost lives), but he hopes this will help some people (because some people live paycheck to paycheck and he understands that). Access will be revoked in a month, so you better withdraw it all while you still can. Any unused funds will be returned. The bank will not question you withdrawing all the money from that account nor exchanging it all with foreign currency. (But-- no buts)
- The servers have been located and he knows how much you guys want to destroy these, so the server bash (literally) will happen some time during the party.

For a moment, he is simply silent as Mehmet gives his own words, his judgments, and Ganymede, having made his own known, sees no reason to add anymore fuel to the fire either. It's like he said, with not wanting to spend the whole party angry...though, he blinks, feeling the bump against his arm. Then, well, he smiles a little, returning a little finger poke of his own against Mehmet's. A show of comradery, and with a nod.
Then, he's playfully placing his hands behind his back. ]
...Yeah, for real. I can really do with another person like you as a friend.
Also, continuing off of that. I think we should trade a little additional gossip. Do you remember when we were on the beach, and I said basically you should find someone too? [ Or someones, hehe. Okay, he phrased it a little rudely but that was his still pre-character development era. Ish. ] I've been kind of getting the feeling that you did. Am I right?
no subject
Funnily enough, his memories of Fragment are still rather vivid, and he remembers the beach. However, while Ganymede is a fantastic dancer in real life, Mehmet's dancing skills only come to light when he's avoiding things. ]
Oh, yeah. I remember. [ He brightens, his gaze roaming the space, looking for someone. ] You still dating that Winter guy? Is he here?
[ Totally avoiding the question... ]
no subject
It's okay that you're shy. I can tell with the way you're looking around where your thoughts lie. What's important is that we've all found happiness, right?
[ Hecking crying ]
We're still dating, of course. I love him very much, and I'm very proud of the fact we're going to be together forever.
[ Ganymede evades saying Michel is here, because he knows his boyfriend doesn't want to run into a lot of people. If Mehmet really wants to find out, he can search for the man himself, though. It isn't like the guy will be too hard to find around... interaction is going to be another story, however. ]
no subject
[ He's not being shy!! He's just avoiding the subject entirely!! There's a difference!
But it's fun watching Ganymede gush like that. Mehmet chuckles, expression still twisted over being called shy. ]
Forever, huh? You'd better invite me to the wedding.
[ That's a threat! The starfruits better have their own table. ]
I'm not shy.
[ He's not shy! ]
no subject
Is that a threat?
[ He tries very hard not to smile. But, he thinks he'd like the other to come along—he's a familiar enough face, after all.
Then, he decides to bluntly point out, because Ganymede is incapable of being anything else: ]
If you're not shy, you should be able to answer the question I gave to you earlier, right? So, what do you have to say to that?
no subject
Okay. Maybe he is shy. Maybe he's nervous because he didn't really reach out to one of them. Maybe he's hesitant because he doesn't really count it as love, because he doesn't know if his feelings are that strong (yet). Maybe he's embarrassed because right now all he wants to see is that threesome coming to fruition.
Also, maybe he's touchy because he still vividly remembers how everyone teased him for his taste.
Feelings are complicated. ]
...Amon. [ He looks away, anywhere beside Ganymede. ] And Owen.
no subject
Though, Ganymede does in fact patiently wait for the other man's answer, blinking a little as he looked up at him. Amon...and Owen.
For both, it's actually easy to connect faces with the identities. He isn't really all that close to them, even if he can't say he never spoke with Amon back in FRAGMENT, and it isn't like he doesn't know who they are. That said, he has nothing rude to say about it. He never got along with Yael and still gave congrats to Yuui. Therefore... ]
So, you have two boyfriends? [ Dramatic pause. But then his expression softens for his new friend. ] Congratulations to you too.
Have you had the chance to meet with them again?
no subject
Anyway.
Mehmet seems visibly shaken by the word boyfriend, and he seems to panic for a second, trying to backpedal and reload from an earlier point in this conversation— Not the dreaded b-word! No!!! ]
Well, I wouldn't call them—
[ Typical for him. Ganymede will argue, Mehmet will argue back, they'll be standing here yelling at each other for the whole party. Not how he wants to spend his time.
He lets his tension go. ]
No, not yet. But I figure I'll find them sooner or later. If they don't find me first.
no subject
'My Boyfriend(s) Was/Were a Phase(s)/Member(s) of Cubia's Picnic Times In A Game And Now It's Time for our Honeymoon Era'
Ganymede just quietly watches Mehmet have a meltdown, and he is a little bit concerned for a moment. Earnestly so. Sometimes, the gay panic/budding relationship panic is real, folks. Though he pauses even further, wondering if he was going to say they weren't boyfriends? He does remember the reactions to his death, in one case for sure because Amon was loud about it. ]
Well, good. You guys probably have a lot to catch up on.
Even with my fiancé, there were things we had to get squared away once we came back to reality. So, whoever approaches the other first between all three of you...I believe that things will work out okay.
We got this far, after all.
no subject
Ganymede goes on with heartfelt words, but there's one word that Mehmet can't get past. ]
Wait.
[ Ganymede!! You can't just—!! ]
You guys are getting married?
[ First Fai and Yael, and now Ganymede and Winter (sorry he still doesn't know his real name)?! ]
no subject
That's right!
[ Oh, and he blinks, before smiling again. ]
Just remember, you said something about wanting to come to the wedding, which is actually happening. The date hasn't been set yet, but it's a sure thing!
[ Ganymede is definitely serious about Michel, yep. ]
no subject
[ Damn. Adversity really brings people together, huh?
Mehmet cuts his own thought process off as he reaches to pull Ganymede in a friendly, but tight hug. ]
Congrats, Ganymede. I'm super happy for you.
no subject
[ He says lightly, amused. Ganymede is about to say something else, for certain, and then he's brought into a hug.
...There's a surprised noise from him, but he does actually return the hug; something he thinks he wouldn't have done before, actually. ]
Thanks, that means a lot. Sometimes, it's a little hard to believe it's real...but, every day I'm reminded of how much it is. For that, I know I'll always be grateful for.
[ When he pulls back, looking up, there's even a little smile on his face. ]
no subject
Good.
[ He reaches to ruffle Ganymede's hair. Does he spend a lot of time making sure it's nice and neat? Yes? Suffer. ]
I am invited, right?
[ Now he wants to go >:(! ]
no subject
Do you know how long it took for me to get it looking this perfect?
[ That sure is a pout being leveraged towards Mehmet's person, cheeks puffing out for a moment. But, at the question...?
Ganymede blinks a bit and then nods. ]
I was serious about that. Even if you were joking, you really did manage to get a real invitation from me. Though, I think I'll be sending you a real RVSP too to make it for real...and so you actually know where and when the wedding celebration is actually happening when it does, um, actually become a thing.
So, we should keep in contact! What's your email?
no subject
The smile stays oh Mehmet's face, though, because the news that someone walked out of this with some joy makes him happy, too.
And Ganymede is pretty much on the same page as him, at least in terms of staying in contact. He can't crash the party if they never hear from each other again! ]
Oh. Here. [ He holds out his hand and motions towards himself with his fingers. ] Let me write it down on your phone for you.
no subject
Write it on my phone...? Well, alright.
[ Anyway, that'd be a damned shame, wouldn't it? He takes out his phone, which looks kind of like...a cutesy sky-blue custom-made cellphone with small hearts and flowers on it. It's totally stylish.
He hands it over to Hector. ]
no subject
It's a bit slow and clumsy the way he types in his email address—he's not as dexterous as he used to be—but he figures this is faster than him trying to spell it out. When he's done, he hands it back to Ganymede with a grin. ]
Looking forward to getting that invite.
no subject
I'll look forward to you coming along.
...In the meanwhile, we can catch up on a lot of other things. And I hope you get a chance to do exactly that with the others too.
[ Ganymede just knows besides Mehmet's two baes other people will be happy to see him. ]
no subject
No, hold on a second, I'm not done yet. [ He plants both hands on top of his cane and looks Ganymede up and down again. He needs all the hot goss. Excuse? ] Who proposed? I need to know.
no subject
As Mehmet looks him over and asks the question, he brightens again with ease. Though first, a tease: ]
You're not?
[ But judging by the little smile, Ganymede is, of course, naturally happy to gossip to kingdom come about the joyful nuggets on the subject. The elation can't be denied as he's talking, not unlike taking a fresh breath of air on a spring morning, and giving a sigh of relief after a casual remark about it being a good day. ]
I did. It was on a beautiful, cold day where the two of us were huddled for warmth by the fireplace...it was kind of a perfect scene for something like that, when you think about it. Of course you agree with me, right?
no subject
And it's also hard not to chuckle a bit when Ganymede demands his agreement. ]
Of course I do. Very romantic. So did you pick out a ring for the occasion? Special wine? Rose petals?
[ Well?? ]
no subject
Though he's laughing lightly a bit himself at the questions directed his way. But, first, most importantly: ]
Good!
[ As for the questions... ]
Mhm, I did. Pick out a ring, that is. I'll leave it as a surprise what kind of ring or you can just guess for fun and I'll say whether or not you're right. I didn't think so far as to scatter rose petals everywhere, though if I did, I think Michel would've figured something was up.
...I didn't think of special wine, either. It wasn't really spur of the moment, but it would have been a nice touch. Something rare, like this party. Which, by the way, you've got to try some of the wine here if you haven't already.
no subject
In fact, he might. ]
So I should go and find Michel, then. Gotcha. [ Guessing? He's not playing! ]
Thanks for the rec, though. I had a little bit of the wine when I first got here. It was good. [ He shifts a little bit. Is he uncomfortable? ] But I'm trying not to drink too much.
no subject
Hey! Ganymede huffs and crosses his arms. ]
You could at least get in one little guess...
[ Unbelievable. Completely unbelievable. How dare someone take the logical course of action here?? Anyway, he does notice Mehmet shift a little. Hmm. Well, he isn't exactly sure if it's related, but in the event it is, it can't hurt to shift to another potential point of a conversational subject. ]
Speaking of arrival and tasting things...did you get a chance to at least sample some of the food already?
