 [Phone; open]

Hello, Arisato here.

I owe some of you an apology for last night.

[Phone; to Elizabeth]

Come over to my house.

[ooc: Takes place the day after  the party. Basically, in the latter half of the party Minato got drunk (thanks to Minako) and hit on a couple of women, Ryoji-style instead of his discreet style. Including a few close friends ( Read more... )

screw alcohol, phone, reversals are dumb, pool party, elizabeth, a goddamn mess, leader mode

"Consider how his journeys on Earth ended, yet how that was not the end of his tales."

"Also... If that is not enough, I do not believe the master would be upset if I told you the terms of my contract."

...A simple "yes" or "no" would be enough.

[In hindsight, he should have expected her to continue giving out something vague when questioned. And of course, there's that contract she keeps mentioning again. Much as he wants to know about it though, Minato needs to hear about the end deal of his first.]

"No it would not. Yes or no without context is meaningless. If I were to say, yes you will die, you would lapse into despair without understanding the situation and were I to say no you will not, it would be a misrepresentation of all of the facts."

"While frequently death is the end, it is not ALWAYS the end. Aigis despairs because she has not reached the end of her journey, and your story has not ended, for I have not reached the end of my journey."

...So I'm dead. But there's more to it, is what you're saying.

[Hearing it confirmed that he'll die hits him hard, like a bullet. He almost doesn't want to hear more, but...he steels himself. This is something he can't hide from anymore, and it sounds like the situation's a lot more complicated than him simply dying.]

"The terms of my contract are I am to aid he who has moved beyond death into evolving into what he is destined to be. If I can complete this my heart's one truest desire will come true. If not, I can return to my master's care with no penalty, but... I will have failed to embrace my own destiny."

...Hence, why you left. [It wasn't to live with him on Earth, but to help him...after he died.]

...What did I evolve into?

"The one thing that keeps death from descending upon Earth and claiming every man and woman as part of her own domain."

["...death from descending upon Earth..."

Soon, Death, the almighty, shall arise and bring fourth the Fall...

Ikutsuki's words come unbidden in his mind. He clenches his fists.]

And in order to do so, a sacrifice must be made.

"One does not wield the card of the universe and remain a mere man. Be it a sacrifice, or evolution I can not say for certain. Know this though. I intend to stand by your side for eternity, for when with you I feel.... More than when I am alone."

"There are three tasks you must complete in your time. Two I shall give to you. The defeat of Death that stalks the Tarterus and to defeat an even more powerful opponent alone. The third task... I know not exactly what it is only that you will face it."

[...Now she's dumping more info on him, most of which goes straight past him. The only thing he does get is...]

I don't...get most of what you're saying.

But, you really mean to remain at my side, whatever happens?

"For all of eternity. Till the last star in the sky has given way to oblivion."

...

You're too kind.

[Nothing can describe what he's feeling now. Between the confirmation of his fate, the complications behind it, what will befall the world if he refuses, it all feels unreal. Eventually it will all sink in.

But for now...for now, all he feels is Liz's eternal devotion.]

[She gets up and gives him a hug, realizing that words at this point are meaningless]

[Indeed. Minato returns the hug all too gladly. If it were anyone else, he would have just stood there like a doll, at a loss of how to respond at being the comforted one. But Liz...he loves her. Hearing how devoted she truly is, touched his dissonant heart. And it makes him want to express just how much he does. Which is why he's now kissing her with more passion than he can remember.]
