—Hey, guys! Guess what!

[ Here to break up all the doom and gloom on the network is Dipper, grinning broadly into the camera as he makes a small wave with his free hand. Hovering over his shoulders are none other than Papyrus and Kolitra, as well. ]

Soooo I know we've had nothing but a bunch of bad news lately, and nobody's really sure how to deal with this god business ahead of us... Well, I'm happy to say we've got something good for us! You know, for once.

[Papyrus was hovering over Dipper’s shoulder, but instead now is cramming his skull to fit into the video feed, right next to Dipper’s face. Sorry. What’s personal space.]

POMARR’S OUR FRIEND NOW!!

[ DID SOMEONE SAY DOOM AND GLOOM because hey this guy is here, too, looming. Wearing his full, ominously glowing dreadplate armor. Staring into the camera. He’s significantly less angry than before, though. If anything, he just looks solemn. Subdued. His rough voice, too, is relatively soft; deep and still and drained of the mad despair he had felt when he last spoke on the network. Instead, he seems detached; resolved, but--sorrowful, too. ]

We have convinced her to join ALASTAIR. She has furthermore provided us with instructions. We are to board the restored warship in ten days’ time, at which point we will confront Ryba--and Nalanni, in the bargain.

[ He pauses, and then goes on. ]

Pomarr was clear: once Nalanni perishes, our diminished magic will be restored. It is the only way. She cannot undo it herself.

[ Another beat. ]

I realize that not all of you like this course of action.

[ I.e., the skeleton right beside him, for instance. ]

But it is what must be done. There is no way around it. Pomarr has promised to guide us, but we must ensure that we are ready to face this trial. If you wish to speak, I will listen.

You heard it here first, folks. So how 'bout it?

[ There's a beat, then Dipper finally side-eyes the skeleton shoving himself entirely too close. He frowns slightly, then begins to pull away. ]

Jeez, man, you're too clo

[ And that's when the feed ends. ]


[ ooc: there will be an OOC planning post for the final battles going up this weekend! ]

Heh. Dipper, Papyrus. If anyone could get her to join us, it would be you two! Good job!

[ Sorry Koltira but... she's not sorry at all. She's very pointedly not saying anything about the rest. If she doesn't say anything, she can just pretend it's not actually going to happen, right?! ]

action to dipper & koltira;

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-05-27 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
Nyeh heh heh!!

[He laughs to himself as Dipper pulls away, not stopping him, but also not... moving away on his own. No bringing him down right now, it seems.]

This went better than I thought it was going to!! I think we should have a celebratory group hug!!

She's still going to need some time... to herself. But afterwards! I don't want her to feel alone! Which is why she was doing this to begin with!

[personal profile] aspearation 2016-05-27 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah!! Of course it was! Because that's what Papyrus does! He'll hug anything! Seriously, give him a rock and tell him it's sad, I bet he'll hug that, too!

[ You'd never guess that she's actually truly very fond of Papyrus... ]

[personal profile] aspearation 2016-05-27 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well... there's nothing wrong with having a little time to yourself, right??

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-05-27 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
She was already alone for so long, though...

But she said she'd meet us in ten days! So I'll see her again soon, even if I'm not going with everyone else!

[personal profile] aspearation 2016-05-27 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
Do it! Then tell me how it goes! ...better yet, show me how it goes!!

I didn't say alone!

[ . . . ]

Sometimes you want to be with people, but not with people.

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-05-27 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
You mean like how she's with very many dead people?

[ AKA, having a mass funeral, for the rest of the Dakal. ]
boneafide: (10)

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-05-27 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
Well, no, I wouldn't force someone to hug if they really didn't want to...
aspearation: (pic#10142800)

[personal profile] aspearation 2016-05-27 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
No!! Not that! That's just creepy!

[ Is she going to have to make this personal...? ]

Papyrus. No matter what, no matter where I go, you're still gonna be my friend, right?

Good job. That's one less headache we have to worry about.

[And that look? He's proud of you, Dipper, considering everything they were discussing about a couple of weeks ago.]
aspearation: (pic#9798272)

[personal profile] aspearation 2016-05-27 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
Heck yeah!! Hey, bring it to me and I'll draw a face on it!

[ No she won't. One, she has nothing to draw with, and two, she would just make it look scary... ]

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-05-27 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, of course!

[ Koltira Deathweaver is not hugging anyone. But he does raise a hand. ]

You both did well. Thank you for accompanying me.

I will accept a high-five.
boneafide: (3)

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-05-27 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
Absolutely!

[ HIGH FIVE.

come on, jump for it, shortie. ]

[personal profile] aspearation 2016-05-27 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
So even if I go to the opposite side of the island, you're still my friend, and I can still come back and talk to you if I want to, right?

[ She's making a point here... just wait for it... ]
boneafide: (32)

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-05-27 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
... Yes...

[ What is this... ]
aspearation: (pic#9986746)

[personal profile] aspearation 2016-05-27 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
So if I did that, then I wouldn't be alone!! Yeah there wouldn't be anyone near me, but I wouldn't be alone here!

[ You can't see her posing heroically from the angle, but... she's posing heroically, and she puts a hand to her chest. ]

Pomarr isn't alone either, she has us now, and when she wants to talk about it and be our friend, we're still gonna be here! ...or we'll be in Oska, but she'll be there too, whatever!
