Take Initiative.

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."

[Someday he will learn how to handle hugs!! Today is not that day. This is only the fourth or fifth one he's ever gotten?? He's lost count already. But it's a small number!!]

Heh, well at least you don't have to worry about—

[—me stabbing you in the back.

WOW HOLD UP THAT ONE IS ACTUALLY INCREDIBLY MEAN (even if it is true) LET HIM TRY THAT AGAIN]

Uh. Anything happening to me. I'm totally fine on my own, but I've got Kamui looking out for me too. Even if I'm not hanging around you, you can bet I'll be safe.

[TOTALLY SAVED IT.]

[... WELL SURE, YOU SAVED IT, BUT SHE'S STILL LAUGHING BECAUSE SHE KNOWS WHAT HE WAS GONNA SAY and boy does she know she's got some fuckin luck.]

I'm glad I won't have to be worrying about one of you disasters! Two, I guess, but leggy never seemed too much of a disaster. Just shy. Kinda cute.

He's a disaster in his own way. Sometimes he's a horrible killjoy! And other times he gets pretty upset and tries really hard not to show it.

[Zagi definitely doesn't do gentle, but his words are quick and he's grinning, so clearly he doesn't mind these disastrous flaws all that much.]

He's not as shy as I thought he'd be either. But he is cute. He's really damn adorable.

[He's practically bouncing him place!! BOY DOES HE LOVE TALKING ABOUT HIS CUTE VAMPIRE BFF WHO KILLED HIM!!]

[they have that in common because SHE LOVES TALKING ABOUT HER DISASTER ROBOT BF WHO TRIED TO KILL THEM ALL]

Now I'm pissed he died the first week with you! I wonder if he still thinks we're friends.

[What gave you the idea he ever did, you small time catastrophe.]

Hm, I dunno. He's kinda prickly about that.

[SO ARE YOU]

Make sure you talk to him before we go! He'd better get used to you since I do want to see you again.

[KAMUI BETTER ACCEPT HIS SISTER-IN-LAW oh my god]

[zagi you might be a pink haired disaster but you're hers and she adores you]

Aw, we got along perfectly fine when he was alive! So I'm sure it'll be fine, I'll bet he even missed me as much as anyone else!

But I'll talk to him, yeah, I'm gonna try to get around to everyone I can since I... never actually got to talk to you guys when you were dead in the first place, so. Yup!

Heh, don't worry too much about that. We figured you'd hear all about it and we'd get a chance to talk to you at some point. You had a lot to deal with, after all.

[He's still not sure he really understands everything that happened, but he's probably never going to get it. Emotions are difficult and no one understands, etc. But he's figured out something that's close enough to love, so he's content.]

I know our paths will keep crossing in the future, so it's not like this is goodbye. We'll have plenty of time to make up for all that time we could've been hanging out.

[THAT WAS ENTIRELY YOUR OWN FAULT YOU FUCKING DUMBASS]

[That's a good first step!! And maybe when your asshole turns out to be the second worst and then the worst case scenario you'll understand a little more!!

... Hopefully not! Clamp is bad, but it's not that bad!]

That was your fault, but I get what you mean. How good are you at story telling?

[HE'D RATHER NOT DEAL WITH THAT EVER, THANKS.....]

Depends on what kind of story and why you're asking, I guess.

[your loss tbh]

I'll just be expecting to hear all about you and shortcake's travels, that's all! And you've gotta be a good story teller, since that guy probably won't give anything but the basics.

[She remembers he was straight to the point. Just like how she remembered that Zagi was fucking nuts (in a good way), Pearl was quite motherly, Caren was a killjoy, Yato was funny, Mion was dependable, etc upon etc.]

Oh don't worry about that! You're asking me to talk about the stuff we kill, that's gonna be a great story!

[you're going to go save his brother first you asshole, this may not involve killing at all!!!]

He's kinda blunt like that. So don't worry, I'll handle it!

[He's practically bouncing. BOY IS HE EXCITED.]

[If this were a different place, maybe someplace emotions made an environment effect, Sigrun would be sparkling.]

Then I hope it's not too long before our paths cross again! I already missed seeing you for so long, honey, a few more months wouldn't kill me, but it's been way too long since I had someone I could be an asshole with!

[look, her priorities are in the general area of that she seriously missed him and that's good enough isn't it]

I'll have tons of killing stories to tell you too! I mean, I already do, but it's not like once Aiden and the others get that portal working we'll all be leaving at once! I'll give you every nitty gritty detail!

[Okay, she's also bouncing now, they're a couple of fucking bouncing idiots.]

Kamui's probably gonna want to leave soon, but until then let's go! Tell me your favorite killing stories!

[He sounds super excited!! Sigrun is great, Sigrun totally gets how important it is to talk about your kills, this is perfect!!!! Best sister.]

You asked for it! Alright, so there was this one time with me, a grossling, and a beast the size of a house--

[Boy, are you in for a treat. She will literally stand here and talk your ears off about her favorite kills and adventures. With every big hand gesture and bouncing excitement. rip anyone nearby]

-- and by that time, I ended up climbing onto a roof using all the bodies and watched the sunset with my crew!

[THERE'S A REASON WHY YOU'RE HIS SISTER AND THIS IS EXACTLY IT

He's totally bouncing in place by the time she's done and if he had his knives you can bet he'd be twirling them around BECAUSE HE IS SO PUMPED HE WANTS TO FIGHT FIFTY THOUSAND THINGS]

That's so amazing! You really are the greatest, Sigrun! I need to see you in action! I'm definitely dragging Kamui to your world at some point because I'm not missing out on this!!

[WILD MANIC LAUGHTER]

[HIS LAUGHTER... IT... reminds her of......

...............

NOPE. ZAGI IS ZAGI AND TEN TIMES BETTER BECAUSE HE'S HER BROTHER, YUP, PRETTY MUCH EVERYONE HAS A MANIAC LAUGHTER IT'S. NOT UNUSUAL!!]

I knew you'd be excited by it!! It's just the best thing in the whole goddamn world and it's my job, can you believe it?! I'm the luckiest woman alive! I get to do what I love and I kick ass at it!!

[She's gonna take him on so many fucking troll hunts??? THIS IS GONNA BE A BLAST]

[IT'S TOTALLY NORMAL AND NOT WEIRD AT ALL!!!]

You really are lucky! My job wasn't anywhere near that awesome!

[probably because his boss was an asshole who literally shot him out a window

but then again he didn't show up for work for like a month or something??

but that was because he had yuri lowell to track down and kill]

You're totally going to take me troll hunting, got it? We're gonna destroy them!!

[GREATEST COOL oh wait wrong asshole]

Of course I am! It's gonna be the greatest cool in the whole wide world!

[use it zagi

follow in ur sister's footsteps]

We'll slice 'n dice them, we'll crush them under their own weight, I'll show you how to disembowel a giant if we catch wind of it and there's so many different kind of beasts that've been infected that we'll never get bored! There's even beasts I've never even seen before out there!!

[OH GOD DON'T SAY THAT—]

That's amazing! That sounds great! I've killed a ton of monsters so I'm sure I'll be able to figure it out on my own, but I wanna see what you can do too! Show me everything, Sigrun!

[SAY IT!!!]

I won't disappoint! And then you can show me your moves, too, and maybe I'll even take you out at night when they're really active, shoot off my gun to get them running towards us, and see how long we can go at it until we either kill them all or have to back off!

[you have been invited to endless mode y/n reply asap]

Now that's what I'm talking about! That sounds really fun! Don't you dare forget when I stop by, I'm definitely taking you up on that!!

[WHY COULDN'T YOU HAVE DIED INSTEAD OF CAREN oh wait that's a bad thing to think]
