Take Initiative.

[trustharder]

It seems things have been resolved - peacefully, if more than a little awkwardly for most parties involved. However, there's still work to do here, isn't there? Ryuunosuke shrugs after a long moment; tips his head up a bit. "Hey, Glory? Let everyone up." And apparently that's all it takes, though what that actually does isn't something that happens all at once - rather, panels slide out from the wall, forming a staircase up to that balcony they've been standing on. Mettaton doesn't really wait for the others to join them; he just leaves back through that section of wall they entered from, calling something back over his shoulder. "We've got another room to work from back here, darlings, this shouldn't take too long to work out." >Follow?

Hey.

['Sup, Misa. Zagi's just going to approach after a moment and... be sort of awkward.]

You said to tell you if Kamui and I started dating, so. I'm telling you.

[HE ONLY JUST REMEMBERED, SORRY ABOUT THE SHITTY TIMING HERE...]

[trustharder]

HELLO, BRUCE BANNER.
IT IS NICE TO MEET YOU TOO!

[lackinginfaith]

Like I told you, duty. I have a country to rebuild, and with everything that's happened here, I'm going to need to make some big changes. That'll take time, to say the least.

But I'd like to see you all, if we can. And there's the matter of the other vaults.

[garudynamic]

Hmm... okay, what set of outcomes would be best for you, specifically?

[trustharder]

THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS.
AND THE NEW KING CAN BE MORE THAN ONE PERSON.

[notjustawriter]

[WELL OKAY I GUESS HE'S THE KING NOW]

Do you have any information on Observant?

[penduli]

[ Other options... ]

Right. What other options are there?

[cherryblooded]

I shouldn't really talk about justice or forgiveness. All I can say with confidence is that there are people important to me I'm not willing to lose.

[captainobnoxious]

[... He looks so weird with his cat-tail hair and without his glasses, just give her a moment.]

You look better with glasses on. [sigrun.] I mean. You're welcome, Colress, even if I couldn't have done it without all of you too. We're a team.

[penduli]

[ Mmmhhh yeah he gets that. ]

If you need someone to talk to, I... [ ...uh, he doesn't even know if they're going to even be worldhopping, fuck— ] I'm here? I probably understand better than most, so...

[ ...the offer's there, anyway. ]

[lackinginfaith]

He's something. How are you feeling now?

[ratingspoint]

...I don't know. I haven't really lived with anyone else for a while.

[prismbloom]

[ .... boy. This is gonna be awkward, isn't it?

But Aqua's not the sort to leave things unfinished, and she... well. She's not sure what, exactly, she'll say to him, but.

She clears her throat. ]

Hard at work?

[cherryblooded]

I haven't been this happy in more than two months.

[captainobnoxious]

[Another case of "what do you do about talking to someone who's been dead for two months" but also another case of she's going to laugh her ass off at him.

You look like a drugged up cat. She's aware of what they look like. Even if he might be moving a little better at this time.]

[lackinginfaith]

What would you call interesting? Just so I know.

[happysweets]

O-oh my gosh, Black, you finished it?!

[ OH NO...... ]

I'm so so sorry, we couldn't see it! That was probably the week when we couldn't get in contact with you guys...oh gosh, I feel so terrible, and I wanted to watch it so badly! I'm sure it was spectacular...do you think maybe one day you could perform it for me again? Or better yet, we can get an actual stage, with actors and everything?! I'm so happy you finished it but I can't believe I didn't get to see it!

[ She looks so upset about it..! After he worked so hard!!! ]

You really gave her a happy ending?

[garudynamic]

...yeah, leaving him trapped is cruel. He should be able to move on to whatever after this he's getting.

[amygdalae]

[Somehow the exclamation mark more than anything is what gets out a laugh from him, short and sharp but still amused.

God, its not the first time he's had to deal with sentient AI but--Glory is at least much more palatable than Ultron.]

Yeah, it is. [A smile.] I've got a couple of questions I need answers for, if you wouldn't mind answering them.

[pokexplorer]

Ah, excellent!

[Thank goodness indeed! And oh, good, she came a little closer. He can see her better now.]

How are you feeling? After all, it was...well, it was a ride.

[Especially for Aqua, good lord. He still feels awful about her fate.]

[ratingspoint]

...I'll be fine. It's better than the alternative, anyway. Right?

[prismbloom]

You did. It was incredible, Yosuke.

[lackinginfaith]

Right.

...That's right. There were others, weren't there?

[captainobnoxious]

[A fellow floor person.]

... So. At least you're not eating shit down stairs this time.

[blastiarm]

Alright, alright, I'll trust you. Everyone else does.

...Besides, he doesn't look like he'd be any fun to fight anyway.

[DRAMATIC SIGH...]
