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.

[ there were multiple mute people by the end ok that totally wasn't me forgetting that nui already said that in this thread don't look at me ]

Was it, now? Then I really should have killed her. I never disciplined her for attacking me on the first day.

[ he says this so casually... hopefully claire isn't hanging in the rafters waiting to kill him ]

[coudre]

[ it's ok she forgives you and i do too ]

Right? I guess what they say is true - it's always the quiet ones!

[ she giggles at her own joke. god, she's funny. ]

[uraniumnumnum]

What a stupid saying.

[ whatever nui!! he's not being nasty, at least. just being his usual rude ash self. ]

What do you plan on doing now?

[coudre]

[ hey, she didn't make it up! for all she knows, the person who did is incredibly stupid. ]

Isn't it obvious? This whole game was one big dumb distraction - I have work to get back to, so I'm going home.

[uraniumnumnum]

[ well. he can't disagree with that... it was big and dumb and distracting. But he's dead, so he has nothing to look forward to back home. Literally. ]

I figured as much. Waging war against humanity, I presume.

[coudre]

You can barely call it a war if you know you're gonna win! It's more like... a universal revolution.

[ and she can't wait to get back to it! ragyo has Big Plans, and even if a certain ruffian and her gang of weirdos are getting in the way, that's not about to stop her. ]

[uraniumnumnum]

You certainly have confidence. [ he seems faintly amused. ] Pride can kill even the strongest soldier, you know. Good luck.

[coudre]

You've never met Lady Ragyo.

[ she has every reason to be prideful because of that fact, so her smile doesn't even twitch. ]

But thanks anyway! Good luck with whatever you're doing, I guess.
