GRAVEYARD

[foundationmods]

[On the instant of your death, you're suddenly outside of your body - probably staring down at the remains it's become.

Yet, you're not alone. For all of you (except Szayel), a young man appears from behind you, his face set into a firm, yet sad, scowl. His shaggy strawberry blonde hair is pretty eye-catching, along with the black and white Shihakusho he wears and the large sword on his back, even as he gently tries to lead you back into the lobby and away from what was once your body. You can still clearly hear and see the living, if you want to try - but they can't see or hear you.

'Welcome to the world of the dead in this Resort,' he says, quietly. 'Looks like you're stuck here with the rest of us.'

He hands you a tablet, just like the one you had before. "You'll need this if you want to keep talking to them,' he explains, looking sad.

It looks like you've passed on, and yet...You still feel like you have a role to play in all of this.]

To help out Ichigo on his quest to the brain. Obviously.

[that]

[is not what Shirou meant]

[diesifkilled]

That is not what I meant, idiot.

[purrtagonist]

[haha. . .]

I passed the baton to Makoto. I think. . . she's more needed on the side of the living than I am right now.

And I think I can do the most good here.

[diesifkilled]

...

[Okay that does actually sound reasonable when you put it like that, but,]

I still kind of want to punch you for getting yourself on this side.

[purrtagonist]

[everyone thinks he does things without thinking, but TRUTHFULLY he does not!]

. . .

I guess I can let you have a free hit. . .

But also: I'm technically not dead.

[diesifkilled]

You're soul's not in your body, so I'm pretty sure you're also technically not alive.

[Stepping up to him, looking for all the world like he's preparing to punch

and then pulls him into a hug. AN ANGRY HUG.]

[purrtagonist]

[ah]

[looks. . . kind of surprised at that hug actually, his eyes growing wide. he really did expect the punch, not-- this]

[. . .]

[but. . . after a moment? he returns the angry hug fiercely and tightly, face pressed against Shirou's shoulder]

[diesifkilled]

You'd better not die, Kurusu. Not after all of this.

[It's murmured into his shoulder, barely audible but there.]

[purrtagonist]

I won't.

[muttered in return, his grip on Ichigo tightening]

I sure as shit won't. I'm going to see this through to the very end.

[diesifkilled]

[replies to this so everyone gets to see you mixed up your protags]

Good. Maybe we'll all actually make it.

[purrtagonist]

[STOP THEY BOTH HAVE RED HAIR???]

There's no "maybe" about it.

We will make it.
