Moving Forward

[twibeast]

[ The 7th day comes to pass and despite knowing that things are different now, Achilles still braces for the worst - only when time doesn't reset does he finally feel like he can breathe again. Like the final confirmation that the loops are indeed over.

Though it's what he sees in the coming days as they prepare for the Underside that really excites him, to the point that he messages the group chat about it. ]

Well, well. So is this the highly anticipated "school festival" I've heard all the students speak so highly of?

[ Indeed as Achilles says, the school festival has finally come. It is the most extravagant, anime-ass Japanese school festival you can imagine, with various student run stands outside full of food and even more things going on inside... and the entirety of the student council running around like chickens with their heads cut off trying to keep everything running smoothly.

This, even more so than the passing of Authority and the lack of time resets, puts him at ease. ]

I know we still have much preparation to do but I think after all of this a little bit of fun and relaxation might be good for us.

Of course if all the hustle and bustle gets to be too much for anyone you're more than welcome to make use of my office or faculty dorm, should you have difficulty finding an empty room.

[ Not that he'll be in either much, he's also in a mood to check out the food festival. But hey you don't need him to be present to chill in there.

You've done good work Executors. Enjoy this respite before the battle ahead. ]

[Wolfsbane does clap from the audience, and she goes to find Etoile when she's done.]

Well done. Better than most of these Spectres milling about, at the least. Don't tell me the clubs made you do this.

[etincelledefierte]

They absolutely didn’t make me do it. It’s just something I missed doing. The memories are still a little fuzzy, but I remember being on stage being something I love.

[emberserker]

So you found what it is you were born to do, did you.

[etincelledefierte]

Part of it. I don't think it's the whole story, though.

[emberserker]

Is it ever, with these memories? It's good that it's something you're good at. People are born for certain things, after all. That's simply how it is.

[etincelledefierte]

Very good point.

[she chuckles.]

I'd like to think being on stage is some part of what I was born to do, at any rate.

[emberserker]

Let's hope you're as good an Executor as you are a performer. You must be training, at least.

[etincelledefierte]

I am, don't worry. I've been hitting up the kendo club for sword practice, and I go for a run every morning. I need to be able to keep up my strength, at any rate.

[emberserker]

Good. Have you tested out your abilities as well, then?

[etincelledefierte]

I've honestly been a little worried about that. Not the actual abilities themselves, more drawing attention to them. I didn't want another incident like Amber had with freezing soda cans, you know?

[emberserker]

He certainly is something, not always a good something. But really, Spectres don't usually care for long, and now the Authority's not a problem, either. Though you'll need to get into the habit of practising in secret sooner or later. The next one's sure to be hunting us down the second we show up, provided we pass the next Underside on the way.
