THE END 2.0: THE AFTERPARTY

THE END 2.0
THIS IS NOT GOODBYE (YET)
    Welcome back to Sunset City! Kenir has been defeated, the barrier around the city has been broken, and the Temple has been restored to its usual condition.

    Following your conversations with Braphine at the Temple, your local goddess of community and connection has granted you the gift of being able to go back to where you came from, or to visit other places where your bonds have been formed.

    But. It takes time to prepare all these, no?

    Which is why you have been granted some time. Time to yourself, with your new bonds and friendships, positive and/or negative - to spend time with each other before you go your separate ways.

    Dennyhop, burger-making, movie time, karaoke, rest… Whatever you choose to do with your remaining time in Sunset City is up to you. It's safe to roam around, too, given that the residents seem to be themselves again – sure, there is conflict, there is anger, there is sadness to be found, but there is not anything depriving the people of the full human experience. Not right now, and hopefully, not for a long time. The sense of community is present among the residents…

    …And perhaps among all of you, too. Much more so than when you first arrived.

OOC
READ ME!!!!
    Here is your aftermath/afterparty post! Feel free to host your own FFA gatherings in this post or any wrap-up threads with your CR. The epilogue/goodbye post will go up tomorrow, Saturday 2/11 at 12pm EST, along with a tl:cr and love meme!

Not yet. I'm still thinking about it. But I know for sure that I'm not going home.

Good.

... I was... going to suggest either my own Japan- someplace familiar but without Asunaro- or... um. Paldea- Arven's country.

It's an incredibly gentle world, so I thought maybe... it would be good for you.

Is that so? Are you going there with him?

[It's a gentle teasing.]

Yes, actually. ... My mom is an important figure in my community, so... there's no real escaping her. And Braphine confirmed I can still stay in contact with my friends and visit again...

Oh? Visiting does sound nice.

[Maybe he'll visit home, once the death game is over...

So, Pokemon, is it?

Mhm. I'm looking forward to seeing more, actually... Though, Mabosstiff will always be the best.

I wonder if there are any cat-like pokemon.

[He is more of a cat-person so.]

Oh, there most certainly are. If they have jellyfish pokemon, there's definitely cats. And at least three rabbit families, so there's probably more than just one.
