⇨ THE PRINCE IS DEAD
Who: Everyone!
When: Day 178 - B1: Day 6
Where: The Carnival and sometimes on top of the Heart of Stone.
What: Now that the Prince is dead and gone, there's a lot left to sort out. As the remaining servants are liberated and those captured by the Prince are tended to, it's time for recovery and goodbyes.
Warnings: Nothing in particular.

HOME GROUND↴ At long last, it is over. The Prince is dead, and all of his stolen Names have been restored - all that's left to do is treat the wounds and move on. For the first day or two, the Ringmaster will be arranging passage for the servants that are left, all of which have remembered their names for the first time in years. The earth elemental that had been trapped and forced to serve as the Prince's manor, the Heart of Stone, is happy to help for the moment. It appreciates the Ringmaster's mercy, and is free after untold eons of imprisonment. Yet, there are plenty of aspects that are far from simple. There are still servants left mad and transformed into beasts, with no easy way to change them back. The Prince's spells outlive him, and those bearing his poison and his curses will have a difficult road ahead of them. Though most of the bestial servants have been rounded up, and a large number that had been reduced to unmoving statues returned, even the Ringmaster can't return them to normal so simply. The next week is for rest and for settling remaining affairs. If you want to bid farewell to any particular NPCs, or assure care is given where it's needed, now is the time to do it. ► A CURE: The Ringmaster will tell everyone simply - there is no simple way to undo another fae's magic. The Prince's powers were essentially on par with hers, which means that those who have been transformed to stone and those that were cursed into beasts and driven insane are not something she can trivially fix. It will take the work of the carnival and a couple weeks of treatment to shed the curse of stone, and the maddened servants are an entirely separate matter. She will do what she can, but for the most part she is arranging for the Prince's servants to be cared for elsewhere. At least for now, the Ringmaster will be animating the stone portions of people's bodies with magic, though those portions will still be a bit clumsy and numb feeling. ► THE NEW HEARTSTONE: In the absence of the prince, the Heart of Stone will be taking over the remains of the Prince's realm and preventing it from collapsing into void. As it turns out, the manor had been an earth elemental all along - a form of Wyld Fae almost on par to the Prince and Ringmaster themselves. How the Heart of Stone was enslaved is a long story presumably, but the Ringmaster considers it to be a sign of the Prince's own depravity. The Heart will be allowing visitors for the first couple days of this period through the portal, but keep in mind you are essentially just walking around on its body. At least the realm has a floor, now, instead an endless abyss surrounding it. |

Huh... speaking of souls though.] Uh, actually, I have a question. [Since he's apparently well enough to walk around.] You can feel souls now, right? Can you feel all spirits or just... ones of people?
no subject
no subject
[He knows he shouldn't be anxious to admit it. He told Gon how Zarc could hear their spirits, and that implicates Yuya, too. But it's still awkward to admit when no one else besides his counterparts seemed to actually be able to hear them. It's so easy to write off as part of his entertainment dueling and not, well, real.]
no subject
Aaauh. I, the man Gongenzaka, have absolutely felt the presence of my cards. As steadfast as they have shown themselves to be, even through mere Solid Vision..!
[So apparently he has feelings about this.]
no subject
But just believing isn't the same as hearing them. [Not that those were the words Yuya asked with, however. When he looks at Gon it's with more eagerness, but he's still a little nervous actually talking out loud about this.] When you really feel they're there... it's different in a good way, right?
no subject
[Really, this is just a matter of asking things in probably not quite the best phrased way, as Gongenzaka shows his age for once and grumbles.]
no subject
[He reaches to slip Odd Eyes out of his pocket, starting at the card wistfully.] When I hear them, they're something more than my monsters. They want things and they have feelings and... I guess I just thought of you could feel souls now...
[Well, maybe that would become something they'd share. It was great having Yugo to talk to about this, but it's more like an expectation with him.]
no subject
He's just going to have to pout this out, really. Just a little.] ...To feel a soul is not to feel what they think and experience, [He eventually explains with a sigh.] ...For that sort of thing...
...That is something which I, the man Gongenzaka, have sought to feel through our bond, upon the duel field. As firm and steadfast as that bond is...
....I, the man Gongenzaka, could never call what I have with my deck the same connection you bear with yours. Neither is in any way lesser! ....But.... ....You hear and understand them in ways which I, the man Gongenzaka, cannot. [That's the fact of the matter, really-he and his monsters...well, they worked Through that fact.]
no subject
After a beat of silence, thinking, Yuya nods.] You trust your monsters a lot. I bet if they could tell you, they'd feel the same way.
[And he says it with full confidence.]
no subject
....It does, however, make the importance of growing something back more grand, however.... [He glances at his...missing arm. Apparently he can work to grow it back with vines. GREAT. Unfortunately, it'll take practice, time....and until then, a duel disk mounted on the equivalent of tentacles is a bit odd.]
no subject
Grow back? [He looks up, raising an eyebrow. He's imagining some tiny flesh atm coming out of his socket. Like a sprout.
He's probably a little off.]
no subject
[VINE ARM...]
no subject
Can you make it however you want? Is it like your vines?
no subject
no subject
[He can think of a few duel monsters who look like that, but in practice he wouldn't know how it works. Still, he looks thoughtful as he considers it.] I guess that takes a lot of focus? You're really good at focus.
no subject
The intent after all, is an 'arm', not something I, the man Gongenzaka, could form as an arm with focus. This must become something that is so second nature, it remains even in my sleep.
That is the struggle. These are not merely vines that will be retracted and re-made, after all.
no subject
no subject
...The Ringmaster, in fact, is assisting in my training toward the regrowth-it is something that will take considerable time, and focus, however....
[In her words however, it would be 'Extremely Metal'.]
no subject
He ends up falling silent as he almost glowers at the missing space before he jolts himself back to attention. This is partly because he's still running on poor sleep, but he's always had a hard time getting rest when he's worried and stressed.] Well, if you ever need me to help with anything...
[Yuya doesn't really have to offer, because they're friends and it's expected. But he does anyway.]
tie off for Snow Things?
Gongenzaka nods.] Aah. If I, the man Gongenzaka, have need of anything...you have my word that I shall call.
[Oh Boy.]
