[Closed to Close CR]

[rustyhonesty]

So some of you may have noticed I've been pretty absent since returning from Questing Country. Both me and Mikasa have been for the matter. Well, the thing is, stuff happened and now we're a couple now.

When Liminal changed, we both saw memories of home. Same memories Eren had received from his dungeon and more. Somehow some memories had been locked away. So we know what the future holds for us back home.

You could say my heart... finally found a way home.

Korra and I are still close friends. Just not a couple anymore. Not much will change between us.


I did have something else to say other than announcing this to my closest friends. I'm thinking about holding a belated birthday party for Mikasa with a small group of friends. Likely very soon since there's no telling when the Jaunt begins. And yes, I'm completely aware you can hear this, Mikasa.


Everyone should also meet the newest addition to our group. [Jean shows a neapolitan tiger cub on the livestream.] Her name is Sakura and she's the most adorable tiger cub you'll ever meet.


(ooc: Close CR at this point includes Mikasa (obviously), Eren, Armin, Korra, Usagi, Naoto, Naoki, Rise, Shiro, Alcuin, Helena, Feliciano, Dakki, Lyall, Tal... and I might be forgetting people, so just ask if you think you should be included.)

Well, I'm glad it wasn't a worse dungeon for him than that, all things considered. [And he'd been wondering what was up with Jean lately, so finding that out is good.]

[rustyhonesty]

Yeah. It was nothing like any dungeon I have been to, I have to admit.

[Private double protect: just Naoki]

Though I'm pretty sure it feels worse than many other alternatives. Things have been pretty rough on all of us.

let's just go with double protected 5ever

Sometimes the emotional stuff is even worse than a battle. And if it took you guys a while to catch up to it...

\o\ private party

[rustyhonesty]

I'm honestly surprised whatever decides when we go home for new memories even made that happen for us. Both of us at the same time.

I was so mad when he just decided that it would be better for her and Mikasa to break up so we could be together... now, I'm... well, I can't say I'm glad since Mikasa really broke her heart over it, but... things turned out for the best? And I've never felt this happy before?

Just. I'm so confused at how I should... approach him. I know he's hurting too, you know. Over losing Mikasa like this...

[leftbehindagain]

I sure don't have experience with this kind of thing. My best guess is if you give it time, you'll figure something out.

[rustyhonesty]

Uh, yeah, sorry. I'm mostly just rambling out loud I guess.

It feels like all I can do is wait until things calm over.

[leftbehindagain]

It's all right.

Sometimes that is all you can do.

[rustyhonesty]

I know. It sucks though...

[bite_the_hand]

I'm not even sure if it really was a dungeon. But whatever it was, it was close enough to one. I'm just glad it didn't put anyone in any danger.

[Because whatever it did to Eren emotionally, that's far less important than the safety of his friends.]

[leftbehindagain]

A weird dream thing, maybe? Those happen instead of dungeons, sometimes.

[bite_the_hand]

You mean like what Jean was stuck in last time? ...Yeah, I think that's closer to what it was. Still doesn't make it any less weird.

[leftbehindagain]

Yeah, like that.

I can't imagine other people wandering around in your subconscious is ever not weird.

[bite_the_hand]

...Good point. I guess I've just gotten used to dungeons, so I wasn't thinking about it like that. [Perhaps he's gotten a little too used to them.]

[leftbehindagain]

[Define 'too used to dungeons.' Naoki saw nine of them before he even got here.]

It tends to come with the dungeon territory.

[bite_the_hand]

Ah, right. There's something like dungeons that exist in your world, isn't there?

[leftbehindagain]

Very similar to the ones that happen here, yeah. Kanji and I went through... nine of them.
