Epilogue

[lesmodsalouette]

EPILOGUE

Your stopped time has restarted. Whether you were in the grassy field or fighting for your life on the castle grounds, you'll suddenly find yourself in an untouched area of the gardens. Ish is back, and so are the items, and the dead.

You return to Chateau Ambregris with the certain knowledge that come Monday, you will greet a new week, in a home of your own choosing. No longer will the chime of the clocks hunt you down, no longer will the oppressive scent of roses haunt your senses, no longer will you be forced to watch the death of those you've come to love and hate.

Parting is such a bittersweet sorrow, isn't it?

Make merry one last time, in this castle of illusions. Ironically, your memories of this stolen time that never existed are the one thing that will truly remain to you.

END NOTES

🔮 All dead are revived as tsukumogami! Congrats on your immortality(?)
🔮 Any other contracts made with Ish will be honored
🔮 Characters may choose to leave for any world they desire.
🔮 Time has not passed while you were stuck in this loop!
🔮 There will be no cross-dimensional world travel, except for on Samhain (Witches New Year October 31st/November 1st). On these dates, Ish will enable everyone to visit each other's world freely.
🔮 Universal Communication will be possible, courtesy of Manba and Ish. Everyone who wants one will be given a small fox that can communicate with other foxes through voice and video; the foxes can talk and are fairly simple creatures, enjoy them and give them fried tofu once in a while.
🔮 Powers are on for the finale, but Ish will step in and yeet anyone who gets too out of hand back to their homeworld, so play nice! (or relatively nice. )

[OOC: Welcome to your epilogue! The timeloop is ended, the evil has been defeated, and you have some time to catch your breath in the castle before the rest of your life begins! ]

My ability to go back has no relation to whether I regret the wish I made. I will never regret it, myself.

[ everything she did, she did for Madoka. that's enough to make it all worth it, even if ultimately... ]

I asked simply because I've seen the outcome of hastily made, poorly thought out, or essentially coerced wishes far too many times. They regret paying the price they did. They resent the people they made their wishes for. They become self-destructive, guilty, blaming themselves for not making the wish that could have saved their loved ones alongside themselves, if only they'd had the forethought to think of it while they themselves were dying.

It is a familiar pattern, wishes turning to poison once made— even if you assume the best of intentions from all involved.

[ but if he says he can't afford to regret— good for him. neither can she. ]

Ah, it looks like I might have misspoke. I didn't mean to imply that you felt regret or anything like that—it's just that I don't have the same experience with these sort of things as you do.

[ she's one of the "experts" with timeloop stuff, no? sabo doesn't even remotely claim to have any kind of knowledge of that or how to navigate what it's like to experience that. though he is listening to what homura is saying and it's...

interesting. ]

I was only able to act upon the experiences that I know, but I understand your concern...or perhaps, interest. If you don't believe anything else that I say then just believe that my life isn't something that I would throw away on a whim.

If I'm going to die then it will be because of something that would have been worth it.

[ saving a comrade. saving a bunch of strangers. protecting the very principles that he stands for. ]
