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.]

[They're called bond events in Cold Steel...! But close enough tbh.

That does get him to smile instead of continuing to sigh loudly in embarrassment though, so that's something.]

Yeah, same here. I feel like we've all been through too much together to just walk away from this like nothing ever happened.

All of us are from the same site. I want to keep seeing everyone and get to know them all a lot better this time.

So you make sure to take care of yourself too, okay?

[relentlesslyonwards]

Yeah, of course. [Are you ready, Yoshi? Because here comes a head pat.] Besides, with so many people looking out for me, it'd be pretty disrespectful not to.

[Adds it to the counter.]

Heheheh... told you people would want to help you.

[relentlesslyonwards]

[Does like ten more so the counter gets that much closer to triple digits-- okay no.]

Haha... yeah, you did. Thanks a lot for what you said back then, Yoshi. It really did help.

[justonezero]

[You get one more.]

Hm? It was true, right?

[Nothing real special about that.]

[relentlesslyonwards]

[Okay fine, he'll take it. For the road!!]

Well, it wasn't just about that, or the reminder. Having someone there to listen and be patient with me was part of it too.

[justonezero]

Ah... that was...

[Hm.]

Pretty much everyone's been saying stuff like that to me. It took me a long time to actually believe them, though...

That's why I was sure it was true. And... that's why I wanted to pass it on.
