HALL OF ORIGIN.

The Hall of Origin isn't without its accommodations - after all, humans do live here from time to time, with at least one of them a permanent resident, and even with Arceus' release it doesn't see fit to just make the place into the glass-paned OSHA violation that it normally seems to be.

The building itself contains more or less anything you would need after an encounter like this one, whether you want to sleep or locate something to eat, or simply exist around the others for a while; the large hall you first entered into is likely the best for the latter, and you're welcome to gather there for as long as you need. ...Any food is going to be vegan as hell, however, because no one is sure what else you expected.

Cyrus and all three Commanders are present for the time being, and amenable to being approached; granted, Cyrus is going to remain outside with Arceus like the asocial individual that he is. Meanwhile, Saturn and Mars in particular seem...it's difficult to say whether they seem "better" or not, but they don't seem acted upon by the Red Chain's influence anymore. (Which is likely a good thing, whether they consider it to be such or not.)

There are plans to be made, of course, and things to be done; for now, however, feel free to enjoy the present moment. It's been well-earned.

[Michael, oh dear gods--]

I do believe the point was to restore peace back to the land... [...] But I suppose having a minor deity named after you would be a wondrous thing, yes. Is that really the deal breaker you've decided on, Michael?

[She is chuckling a bit, though, not even gonna lie.]

Oh, dear, you must be mistaken. That's what our entire journey was about to begin with! Me getting a tiny fish-thing named after me.

[Michael snaps his fingers.]

Better just reset, do it all again.

[micHAEL FOR FUCK'S SAKE]

Ohhhh, don't you even think about such a thing, mister! I'm not about to go through six whole months of clawing this region back to an adjusted state just so you can have a fish child named for you!

[She is pointing right at him, but she's smirking like hell.]

[Michael cackles in delight.]

Ohhhhh, I can't do that! If only I had the power, we could've skipped all this nonsense!

I suppose that you may simply have to give up your endeavor, and live amongst the rest of us. Named fish child deity or not!

[Camilla is fucking laughing, dear god, this is great.]

Oh, damn. I guess I'll just have to live with it, then.

[Michael sort of moves his entire body in a hand-wobble gesture]

Or, you know. Technically I do live in the afterlife, it's just that humans don't.

I suppose you simply will. Perhaps one day, you'll succeed~

[Camilla chuckles, though, smiling very slightly. That actually does remind her...]

Ah, yes, you'll live with it in your Jeremy Bearimy fashion. [she's still not over that but that's besides the point] ...Are you nervous at all, about going back there?

Oh...well, maybe a bit. My position was a little precarious as it was, and I don't know what's been happening in the meantime. Might be able to get back into the timeline before it's been long, but I'm not sure right now.

[Discomfort...]

How about you?

[...Ah, that's...]

...Please, do whatever you can to remain safe. I'm near certain I speak for everyone when I say we want to see you again--you could even introduce us to those friends of yours. I'm sure they'd be fond of Pokemon, wouldn't they?

[As for her...]

Well...I'm going to be going elsewhere, actually. I don't think going home is going to be a good idea at all, but at least I'll be able to keep an eye on someone. That's enough to dispel the nerves a touch.

Oh, sure! I mean, they don't totally...remember me, right now. But it's fixable! Might have to be, if we need to go on the run again.

Ah, right, the sister thing. [At least she's used to his lack of grace by now.] Well, hey, nothing like going home with a friend!

...Well, I certainly hope you can jog their memory soon. That must be so utterly dreadful.

[But then again, based off what he's said about Eleanor...maybe they'll be fine. She sounds like she knows what she's doing, at least.

...Also thank god for your memory, Michael, she hasn't mentioned that in weeks and that means she don't gotta explain shit.]

Indeed. Especially if what he's said about his world is true...it sounds like there's going to be much to take care of there. And I've always done better with a task at hand.

It's fine. Soon as they die again, they'll be right as rain!

[Except for like, the death part, maybe.]

Who you headed back with, Ignis?

[...Well, as long as they're all fine, she supposes she can't complain--she seems to snicker a bit.]

Do be sure to introduce us all, should you all get here. I'm sure we'd all have a grand time.

[The question, though...]

Oh, no. I'm heading back with Jake, actually!

Oooh!

[Michael bounces on his heels a little in enthusiasm.]

That's great! Jake's great - not that he seems to need anyone to keep an eye on him, but I'm glad he's not going back entirely by himself. There's a lot of weird monster shit happening back there.
