Yes, I'll meet you coming back when the universe has expanded

[azumods]

[Mars' chains had faded away as soon as the chains on Palkia had shattered, that unnatural red glow leaving her eyes; she doesn't stumble, to her credit, and seems to be trying to resist the urge to flinch or anything, but she's...not precisely looking too hot, either. Not like she's going to faint or anything, just like she's been through A Lot.

Jupiter is staying near her for the time being; ultimately, she's the one that addresses you.]

You guys can stay here if you want. Or don't, I don't care enough to insist. But we've got food and beds that probably beat the Center's, at least.

We'll be around, either way. Since I doubt you guys are just going to leave us alone after all that. Do what you want.


[OOC: Consider this a log to cover both any afterparty whatnot you want to get up to, as well as something to carry over into Sunday! Both Jupiter and Mars will be available for NPC threads on this particular log, should they be desired.]

I mean, I don't know what's going through his head on good days. He's completely dedicated to Master Cyrus, that much is obvious. And I'll admit that I kind of worry about that boy sometimes because of that, but...

[She shrugs.]

Say what you want, it's not like I mind.

[anythingforyou]

Well, that and you're more than ready to fight us if we ever tried to take him from you. I like to believe that counts for something as well.

[Just saying.]

...In that case, yes, I do genuinely think that.

[azumods]

I guess he's sort of like a particularly stupid little brother or something by now. Not like I know, I never had siblings or anything, but he's probably close enough.

[anythingforyou]

[...Honestly, that does get Camilla to smile a bit.]

I only say this as a person with many siblings of my own, but that does seem rather close to it. He might exasperate you, perhaps, but he's still someone you care for at the end of the day.

[azumods]

How many do you have? Sibling-wise.

[anythingforyou]

I have an older brother, two younger brothers, and two younger sisters.

[azumods]

You know, I can't even imagine. That sounds kind of insane?

[anythingforyou]

Oh, it is. Believe me, they all tend to be characters in their own right, and it makes life very interesting.

But truly, I love them all the same. That makes it worthwhile.
