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.]

...It's not your fault.

[He rubs at his eyes, letting some of the anger drain away. It's not like screaming is going to solve anything now.]

At least I get to see you for real again.

[bladeisme]

I would've preferred us meeting face to face like this at the end, you know.

[He smiles, but it's obvious to see he's - so very, very tired.]

You're always too eager, you know that?

[diesifkilled]

I know.

[His smile might not be quite as tired as Ichigo's, but it's still weak and faint.]

...But I really tried to stay alive this time, believe it or not.

[bladeisme]

...I believe you, Shirou.

[He takes a deep breath, raising his head.]

But it looks like that's just not in the cards for either of us.

[diesifkilled]

I just... I wish I could've been around to help longer. I believe they can do it even without the Seeker, but it's going to be harder.

[bladeisme]

If - they pay more attention, then it should be possible. All we can do is hope that they realize that.

[He sighs, though.]

...It's - good seeing you again, though. I - I feel like an ass saying that, because you just died and all, but...It's good being finally able to talk to a friend face to face.

[diesifkilled]

I think they will.

[He smiles again, a little more genuine.]

It's good to see you too, Ichigo. It's been a while.

[bladeisme]

[there's a laugh at that.]

It has - it really, really has. Longer for me than for you, but....

...Do you remember if everyone's alright, back at the dorm? I - was so busy, I never got to stick around much.

[diesifkilled]

[...Ah. That makes his smile fall a little bit.]

Not really. I only remember up to us leaving the camp.
