I'll tell you all how the story ends
Who: Ghost Quest kids and all those who want to see them.
What: So as it turns out, going against the label might've been a bad move. Who knew, right?
When: Feb 3rd and after
Where: Pride HQ
Warnings: Talk of torture, aftermath of violence, aftermath of brainwashing, dudes there's some dark stuff.
For the past three days, the troublemakers and ghost helpers of Pride Records were kept locked away from their friends and their bands.
As far as everyone else knew, they were just gone. And then they were back.
They are all worse for wear, some far more than others and some much more mentally than physically, but they are all returned to their penthouses, finally, at the end of their ordeals.
But, at least they're back. Somewhat in one piece. For the most part.

[Ayano told her that she wasn't a monster. Ayano played with her and her brothers. She took them in. She became their sister. After she'd been left alone and called a monster and became terrified of disappearing. And then, even after that, the feeling of dying, of being hit so hard her body crumpled under the impact.
How could things ever get better? They only get worse.]
She jumped.
no subject
[The world went and opened up under all of them. Tearing everything apart as it healed. She screamed. She knows she did, even though she couldn't hear over the rumble of the earth and the way the ship rattled. She hated that thing so much. But it was all that was saving them from the vastness of nothing.
But once Holy came, the Planet itself was willing to fight him. They all were. And then-..and then.
Yuffie is snapped out of the moment, of the Green and the end, to hear what Kido was saying.]
...Who? Who jumped.
no subject
[She sucks in another breath and her eyes burn and she shuts them as hard as she can because the pain ricochets through her body again.
Cold and soaked from the rain because the teacher told her and why her why not Kano why not Seto, why had it been her that had to hear the news?! She had to have heard wrong it's not possible not again it couldn't be happening and Ayano was in front of them and Kido could barely even see from the tears and the rain and her hair in her face and Kano's asking, it couldn't be real what Tsubomi heard but Ayano's not telling them it's wrong and her world is spinning.
"Why does this keep happening to us?"]
It keeps happening.
no subject
[Yuffie stares at her for a moment, her eyes gone wide.
She can't imagine that would be why someone would...
She knows what it means to miss people. She's felt-...She's felt all of it. She was there when she was gone, and there were no answers, and no way to feel better about any of it. She remembers that. And now that she knows it's real, it hurts more than it ever did.
Yuffie knows Kido doesn't do well being touched, she's gathered that, but Yuffie can't help herself. She lets go of Kido's hand only to put her arms around her and try to hug her without hurting her.]
Even if bad stuff happens that doesn't mean that's the only thing.
no subject
Terrible things happen wherever she goes. Everyone she cares about disappears on her. She shakes her head.]
What if Tiger dies too? Or Trucy or Pinkie or Genos? [It keeps happening around her and there's no haze here to bring people back.]
no subject
That's not gonna happen. We're not gonna let it.
[Yuffie sounds positive even if she's terrified.]
We're gonna fine a way to fix what they did to Tiger. [She saw it. Not the whole thing, but she'd seen it. She'd screamed and cursed at them, at all of them, until they hit her to try and make her stop.] And he's gonna be okay, and none of us are gonna let them take anybody else. We all gotta fight together, and we're gonna be stronger than she ever imagined. Just you wait.
no subject
We can't all fight. [Her voice sounds weak. Hopeless?] I can't help. I can't even see. And even if I could...
This was all my fault.
no subject
[There's a little girl, wide eyed and hiding behind his leg. She's so small, really. And she's all at once nothing like she was expecting and everything like Yuffie expected. So this is the kid they were all willing to do practically anything for. Yuffie crouches down so she can see a little better.
'Marlene, right?'
Yuffie hugs Kido a little tighter. Everybody needs people sometimes, and she's not about to forget that now.]
It wasn't. We all chose to be there.

no subject
[Yuffie sounds positive of what she's saying. And she surprises herself by believing every word that's coming out of her mouth.]
no subject
We wouldn't leave, either. I could've... I could've done something.
no subject
Okay, totally gonna admit that I don't know how that worked, but you guys made that choice together, at the time.
[She sounds quieter as she continues.]
We all did the best we could. I know we did.
no subject
no subject
[Yuffie sounds intense, and Kido can probably feel her tensing up.]
There's nothing anybody can do about the past. All we can do is keep going.
If we stop, then they win for sure. The only way to even hope at all is by moving ahead.
no subject
[Definitely not Kido's first rodeo, even if the first one was much, much easier.]
no subject
[Yuffie's voice takes on a harsher edge then and she's much quieter.]
It doesn't matter what she's does, she's done. I want to end her.
no subject
no subject
I don't...I don't know.
[Yuffie resettles so she's sitting next to Kido instead of just kind of clinging onto her, but since Kido hasn't shoved her off, she still keeps an arm over her shoulders.]
I wanna believe this can all be over and it'll be okay. [She pauses again. I want to believe we can help him.
[She's so sure, sometimes. And then it's like something takes the wind out of her sails.]
no subject
no subject
[This she knows. Kido protects her band. That's pretty much the first thing she learned about her.]
And that means no matter what, you still try to help them, even if they don't know they want your help, even if you don't know how. You try. That's the part that matters.
[The doctor keeps saying to hope, she doesn't know if she does. She remembers hoping when her mom was sick. But this is different. This is so much it normally burns someone out. But he's strong, right? The strongest. And ---. She'll help him.
She comes out the door, dark eyes overly shiny and she and everyone else pretends they don't know she's been crying. But they're all there for her. And for him. They'll all be there.
"We'll be back."]
Cause people mess up, and they screw up and stuff happens. But what matters is people come back, and they keep trying to help. Right?
