Week 7: Fast Forward to 2020

[foundationmods]

It is done.

The last tape has played. All of the information that can be found from them has been discovered. They are free to re-watch the tapes, but nothing new can be found there.

The barrier will fail next Saturday. This is unavoidable. The barrier set by Tages will finally fall, and the curse will be free once more.

The only question is, what will those left alive in 2020 do to prepare?

Okay! Next time we get a break...

Please tell me more about yourself, Inaba!

[dereban]

If we get a vacation after this, I'm probably going to see if I can go out of the country with Atsushi.

1/2

[justonezero]

...

[justonezero]

Are you eloping?!

[dereban]

What?

No. I just thought that maybe a few months off work would mean that we could visit Yokohama.

[justonezero]

Ohhh, okay!

[dereban]

Don't tell him that, okay?

I want to surprise him if it happens.

[justonezero]

Your secret is safe with me! Do you already have the money and everything saved up?

[dereban]

. . . I don't know if I'll have enough because honestly, ever since last year I didn't really expect it to even be a possibility.

I've been saving up at least, but -

Well.

Do you think I can potentially bully someone into paying the rest of the trip?

[justonezero]

Do you want me to lend you some of my savings?

[dereban]

'Lend' implies that I have to return the money with interest.

[justonezero]

It's a 0 interest loan! Just make sure to get me a souvenir!

[See! He actually asked for a thing instead of just offering up all his money! That's improvement right???]

[dereban]

. . . you're okay with that?

[ and then she also adds - ]

And is there anything in particular you'd want?

[justonezero]

Uh-huh! You two deserve a nice break!

As for stuff... maybe a cool café exclusive? Or a hard to find figure... I can send you a list of series to look out for!

[dereban]

[she nods in response to that, agreed]

Yeah.

And Atsushi - he doesn't really get to leave the Foundation, you know?

[her voice lowers here, and she swaps to Japanese]

...because of his ability and reputation.

Anyway, I don't mind that. Just send it to me and I'll see what I can do. I'm planning on getting some souvenirs for the others anyway.

[justonezero]

[Nodnodnod! He'll respond in Japanese too:]

It's pretty rough for him. And then this round had to have Dazai...

Got to make sure to keep morale up! Take good care of him when you go!
