DEPARTURE

It's time to go. Most people are on the train by now. Settled into their cabins and among friends and loved ones. There are only three new arrivals left to board and once they do, Hal pulls a conductor's hat out from underneath the bar, tugs it on, and steps around it to the middle of the train. He opens his mouth to talk, voice filling the train. "It's time to go. Stops happen once a day until everyone's departed and I already have your stopped listed. If you'd like to be prioritized, let me know, otherwise we'll go in order of death. Settle in and enjoy the ride. If there's anything you need, don't hesitate to ask, folks." This, of course, means that those who died earliest (Manfred, Higekiri) will depart first while those who died latest (Barnham, Damian, Percy) will depart last. There's a stop for everyone, though those who want to get off together are more than welcome to. Hal pulls a notepad and pen out of his pocket later and people will notice that he goes around the train confirming stops with everyone. Whatever feeling Hal may have had to a character back in town isn't noticeable here -- he is simply a robot assigned with a job. After that, it's all a matter of settling in and enjoying the ride. If that's possible for you, at least.

Yeah. Not... really like the way he is now, but he's got nowhere else to go.

[noct is entirely too nice, probably. but he doesn't like the idea of ash going back to his own world to be totally dead, for some reason.]

[insincerely]

[He lets out a light scoff.]

No wonder you and Milla get along. You're both a bunch of goody-two-shoes.

[elemancy]

[why are you like this to very end, shinnosuke...]

It's got nothing to do with that.

[insincerely]

[why wouldn't he be...]

Really?

[elemancy]

Really. That's a weird reason to even think.

[insincerely]

Eh? From what I heard, similar personalities are a great way to bond, though I wouldn't know.

[elemancy]

We have some stuff in common, but it's...

[he sighs, this is too hard to explain.]

Anyway, you don't need to get it.

[insincerely]

You're right. I don't really want to know what led you two up to making out in a public space.

[elemancy]

...Do you really have to put it like that?

[insincerely]

You can't deny that it happened.

You... could still word it better. [ugh, embarrasing.] Not exactly like I planned for it, anyway.
