WEEK 7: FAREWELL!

GOLDEN END     47 CREW ACTIVE
The remnants of stellar alchemy, stirring into life.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

Welcome to the CSS Eudora… your tour is over, and the rest of your journey is set to begin. As you awaken, you will notice that there is a lulling sense of peace aboard the ship, and the world around you is silent save for the soft humming of the generators and propulsion system, the air circulating in gentle puffs from the ventilation (cool, a refreshing change from the past seven weeks). As you rise, you will notice that the Eudora has changed around you.

And it has changed for the better.

The halls are well-lit and clean, the lights no longer flickering or are on the verge of dim. The Eudora has taken on a warm, welcoming glow like a candle’s flame illuminating the dark. Nothing will force you anywhere today - and the Eudora's warm voice will greet you by name today, ask you how are you are feeling today, with every cup of coffee or tea, with every need gently perceived. She's returned to her old self, her voice is brighter, warmer, and she revels in once more having a full crew.

A notification coming from your I.R.I.S. indicates that, in having cleaned up the ship, freeing her from infection, some locations have been replaced with a new ones, as if the Eudora herself had a feeling that you might be needing this. The tour is all completed, now, and this has become your central hub for the worlds available to you. The Eudora knows just as well as you do that it’s time to go home, after all, which is why there's an encouraging warmly-lit path on the ground, and a directional indicator on your I.R.I.S. to show you the way towards this new location.

 
The endgame world-hopping mechanism! At the very end, upon achieving Golden End, players will be called to one room on board the revived Eudora (after her baptism by fire via explosion), replacing the eerie Meat Locker and Machine on the concourse. This room is enormous with screens around the entirety in 360 degrees. Various views of worlds flicker in and out, some very familiar, and others not so much. The console in the center controls several teleportation pads that are inter-dimensional and reach far and wide thanks to the Eudora's rebirth. All one needs to do is program the desired location into the console and step into the corresponding transportation pad.

All character return times are currently paused at the moment of your characters' canon points, and can be rewound by 10 minutes max. They will remain paused at this time, even if you go worldhopping elsewhere first - you need only return to the Eudora to access it! If you would rather go to another world, you're permitted to do so. If you would rather go with a castmate to a different time point (since theirs will show as different from yours!), you can do this instead. (Whether you replace that version of yourself or there are now two of you is up to you and your PSL gods.)

As members of the Junior Crew of the Eudora, while your nanites have largely worn off, the Eudora will always remember you. You will find that your I.R.I.S. still functions, with but a flick of the wrist. No matter where you are, you can now cross-dimension, cross-galactic communicate with one another. And play your various games.

There's also an app labeled Lyft Off, which will allow you to be beamed up to the Eudora at any time from wherever you are in whichever galaxy you're activating it from at the time. Feel free to make the Eudora a central hub for constant travel, and utilize her resources as desired - the food, the clothes, the equipment and library for research... it's all available for you, for as long as you need it!


Hello, Junior Crew, and welcome to your hard-earned Golden End. Here are a few things to close you out:

🪐 Characters will be compensated greatly by Nut & Bolt Co. with the original stipend dictated on your "contracts." You will find that the exorbitent sum of the pay, including emotional damages and reparations has been transferred to an easy-to-carry card that will transform into your world's currency once you are home. You can utilize your I.R.I.S. to treat it as a bank of sorts and easily remove or just carry your cash on that card (so you can utilize it in other worlds!)

🪐 You may also find an app on your I.R.I.S. entitled Thank You. You get the distinct feeling that this is from your ghostly friends who'd been trapped in the Helly Belly all this time, the old crew of the Eudora bidding you farewell, and the spirits of those you freed in destroying the planet. Characters will know intrinsically that this will allow them to be granted one wish of their choosing, however they cannot trade this wish away and can only utilize it for themselves. This wish also cannot affect anyone else on board the Eudora, nor can it be catastrophically destructive. It must be used for personal means.

🪐 Characters are free to return to their original worlds, or they may go to another world of their choosing, or you can choose to stay aboard the Eudora, we won't stop you, and she's fully equipped to sustain herself for a long, long... long, long time.
🪐 You are free to keep your I.R.I.S. and all the apps that come with that in order to remain in contact with one another.
🪐 World-hopping is always an option here thanks to the new teleportation room, so if you're ever missing a friend, why not hop on over to say hello?
🪐 Audiences are open for one more day if you have anything else you'd like from your Senior Crew.
🪐 Your PC directory is located over here.
🪐 Your final CR chart is here.
🪐 We have a feedback post here, TL;CR post here and a friending/love meme here.

Thank you so much, everyone, for playing in our little game! We hope you all had fun, and we look forward to hanging out in the server with you until next time! See ya later, space cowboys.

BEAM ME UP

[ YEAH!!!!!! sometimes you just smooch your homies and spread the love! ]

I love ya, man!
drymonster: (somebody's buyin' it)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-24 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
Y-yeah, haha... love you too...





[ ok he's using his wish to get a girlfriend who wants to fuck him as soon as he gets home ]

[ TOTTY!!!!!!! but, like, on that note ]

Hey, need someone to go with you to one of those mixers? I can be your wingman, dude—I'll be so much better than one of your shitty bros!
drymonster: (don't think edward would approve of that)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-24 10:53 am (UTC)(link)
Ah... well, you usually have to be in your twenties for those, that's part of the criteria. Plus it would be a little weird bringing someone who wasn't single.

Maybe just an informal outing to a bar, though.

[personal profile] frotag 2024-04-24 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh? Since when? [ . . . ] I'm young at heart, aren't I?
drymonster: (no you know what i told it wrong)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-24 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
You are! The people who set these things up are just kind of shallow and picky a lot of times. [ and so are the people who attend them. his social circle kind of sucks. ] Let me see...

[ pulls up a text conversation on his phone with a girl telling him what kind of friends to bring that does indeed say in their 20s and that i already had a screenshot of because i took it for the pink rabbit stickers lmao ]

See? You definitely fit the personality criteria, but...

[ HELP ME YEAH HE IS FLATTERED BY THE DESCRIPTION BUT................ ]

Damn... did I just become a victim of ageism?
drymonster: (well i know what it's like to be dead)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-24 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm afraid so... our society definitely has a pretty strong bias toward physical youth.

[ pats... we can't all be ambiguously the same age for 20 years ]

But there's plenty of better stuff to do than that anyway [ for GUYS WHO HAVE GIRLFRIENDS ], so I don't think you should worry too much about it!

[personal profile] frotag 2024-04-24 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... if there's anything else that pops into your brain that I can lend you a hand with, you know I'm just a text away. Rain or shine, I'll come runnin' for you, Todo-chan!
drymonster: (yes. or no. whatever.)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-25 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...

his expression softens into a smile, and he sighs with a little nod. ]


Yeah, I know.

[ he hesitates for a second, but then stands up on his toes — with his hands on ichiban's shoulders for balance — and leans in for one more kiss between two guys who have no feelings for each other. ]

Thanks for everything, Ichiban.
frotag: (pic#17082979)

[personal profile] frotag 2024-04-25 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[ oh...! he lets out a little noise of surprise that quickly turns into a warm laugh as todomatsu kisses him again. if totty allows it, ichiban will hold it for a couple of seconds longer than just a little peck. ]

Any time, Todo-chan, hehe. Gotta say, though... thought it'd just be a one-and-done deal! Oh, man, don't tell me— you've gotten the Kasuga Ichi-bug!

drymonster: (we poked you with sticks until you fell)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-25 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[ yeah, he'll allow it...... while trying not to think too hard about why he made any of this happen. ]

If I had, I think calling it that would have just cured it.
frotag: (pic#17075614)

[personal profile] frotag 2024-04-25 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
C'mon, you gotta admit, it's at least a little funny.
drymonster: (i saw that on the WB actually)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-26 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
I am under no obligation to admit that.
frotag: (pic#17082989)

[personal profile] frotag 2024-04-26 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ lightly punches his shoulder with a grin ]

Asshole. [ (affectionate) ]
drymonster: (it's there for you to touch)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-26 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep~! That's the kind of character I am.
frotag: (pic#17089323)

[personal profile] frotag 2024-04-26 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
You can break character for a bro in need!
drymonster: (that should work right?)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-26 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I've been OOC enough already these past two months, it's time to get back to my roots!
frotag: (pic#17065156)

[personal profile] frotag 2024-04-26 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Man, that's not being OOC. That's called character development.
drymonster: (it had everything)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-26 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm, too much of that is kind of problematic for a gag anime character though, you know?
Edited (line break??) 2024-04-26 19:14 (UTC)
frotag: (pic#17027438)

[personal profile] frotag 2024-04-26 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, but... by that same logic, gag anime characters' personalities can change at the drop of a hat, right? It's kind of the whole point of adapting to the joke at the moment.
drymonster: (but i forgot what i did to fix it)

[personal profile] drymonster 2024-04-27 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
That's true, yeah! But with six identical main characters we've each had to find our own niche, and mine is being cute but dry. I can't deviate too far from that.
