The End

[foundationmods]

After a long trial and a tearful rebirth, it was time to move on to the next journey. But where would they all go? And how would they be able to say 'goodbye' after seven weeks of bonding?

Those answers would not come easily. However, the Pieces did not need to make those decisions alone...🗈

Rest is needed, but it isn't quite time for that yet. No, there are places to go and people to see.

Given that most of the Pieces did want to return to the Foundation, the Witch of Dimensions opted to stop there first and drop them all off. The stragglers can be handled later, when he has rested and regained more of his energy.

But where did he decide to put them? After all, the Foundation knows they have gone missing. To return them right to where he took them from would only put them in danger. So instead, he opts to take them to the people best qualified to offer help with multi-dimensional dealings.

MEET AND GREET

[foundfate]

[Hey so, everyone involved in the 'live watch'. Guess what?

It's about to get a lot more crowded in that break room.]

Hello! I'll spare the introductions, since we're short on time and I know you all know who we are anyway. This may be quite sudden, but I need to ask a favor of all of you. See, all of these people here-

[He gestures to the Round 3 participants who are choosing to stay behind.]

-need to get reintegrated into the Foundation without getting locked away and questioned for what happened. This group is big enough to do that, I think, but they're going to need some help doing so.

Think you can help us out?

[dereban]

Hey.

Asshole. You miiiiight want to be careful being around here for too long.

[improbablenotimpossible]

[Ruler immediately dematerializes, before reappearing on the couch. He is relieved to feel that - it's weird not having that ability handy]

Yes, I would prefer to be of some actual use for what's coming up.

[theycallhimmrpchan]

[...Guess who got lost on his way out? this guy]

[cryosurgeon]

[Guess who's staggering over after reappearing and flopping onto the couch beside you, Sherlock?

And he's immediately hugging you as tight as those skinny arms possibly can.]

[linearcrash]

Whoa! Who invited the guy? Whata- whatever?

[ SORRY ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[--AAAH WHAT JUST HAPPENED--]

--oh, we're... back.

[aleph_armed]

[And Gebura's cognition filter is back on as usual. She'll just. Lean against a wall like an edgelord.

She does seem to be smiling, though, so. It's an improvement?]

It would've been nice to keep the new look, but I guess it can't be helped.

[perfeccion]

[Szayel is there. As is Duke. He gives Watanuki a look, then--]

Duke. If you would.

[The black, pink, and orange sparklewolf barghest at his side suddenly disappears. There is a cold breeze, and a rattling of chains, and the cameras in the room spark]

You have 15 minutes before those cameras are restored. Give me Kurosaki and this will be our little secret, Witch of Dimensions.

[goldenmaniac]

[Takumi right away Connection Jumps into his digivice to talk to Toby alone for a bit- sorry guys

He'll come back out eventually if anyone waits around for him]

[keydomhearts]

[ S'up R1 and R2! ]

I think I know some of you! Hey again. If we haven't met yet... I'm Sora! It's nice to meet ya.

[So, uh. Guess what.

It turns out his "soul" or whatever is now stuck in a magical android with a goat head.

On one hand, it's embarassing. On the other, he's less likely to get disconnected from the body and can now wear clothes. So... Taking the good with the bad???

He nervously smiles at the Foundation employees like people with goat heads are normal.]

Hi! N-no need to drag me in for questioning or anything. I'm with their group.

[fullbodied]

[she looks... so tired. so, so, so tired.]

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He almost starts before seeing who it is, giving the tiniest of smiles, leaning into the hug. There's something quieter, more sedate about the display of acceptance, but - that spark is still there, a bit of humanity Sherlock thought he had shunted away]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Upon seeing this, Karen's hand goes straight into her pocket. Her CureMo feels... warm? It feels like it's working again, is the point here.]

[whirlingmace]

[ And next to Duke is going to be another barghest sitting there. Tail wagging at NEW PEOPLE ]

[rosebridled]

[ Chu-Chu is kind of hiding behind Anthy's neck and looking suspicious, because where the fuck did these people all come from... he will warm up quickly though. ]

If anyone would like tea, I don't mind making some.

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[GRANDPA'S HERE NOW

Though after blinking and looking around the room - his eyes are also a little red but do not bring it up u fuckers - he casually slips out of the break room for a second before coming back in moments later and quietly going to sit on the nearest comfy couch or chair.]

[foundfate]

Right, right, can do. I wasn't going to keep that stick-in-the-mud around anyway. Anon? You can consider it a down payment towards your wish.

[Since Anon has Ichigo and all, and Watanuki knows that Anon has a wish in mind.]

[literalidiotball]

Easy for you to say.

[Says the goat headed robot.]

[aleph_armed]

...It's honestly kind of concerning that your core turned into a goat head, but... I guess if you're happy with it, it's fine.

[justonezero]

[Yoshi might be a little teary too, but most of it's relief that they were able to get out, that he doesn't have to sit through tensely waiting to see who else would die, who else he couldn't help.] Mm! [He nods.] We wanted to help, but we weren't allowed to as "spectators." [He puts a hand over his chest.] I'm a thaumiel. Even though I'm still D-class, if anyone needs it, I can try to help convince the Foundation you're still properly "contained." My eyes can see the world in numbers, so I can tell them the easiest way of containing you while still giving you freedom.

[oceanicbutterfly]

We can probably do something about it. Some paint, at least.

[She's probably kidding. Probably.]

[aleph_armed]

I mean, on the bright side, you can probably taste things now? Do you have olfactory sensors in that new body?

[literalidiotball]

[Do you like feet? Because this moron isn't watching where he's going.]
