8th Subterranean Rose ~ Returning to the Present

[littlemissfreud]

Wow, the city looks better now compared to how it was a while ago~ I guess that means the incident's over. Although, the last few days feel a bit fuzzy...

... well, there's no point moping around in the past. There's more important things to pay attention to now!

[...]

Such aaaas... these! Hey Taiwan, I've got a bunch of crane thingies here. I can't

Crane thingies?

[littlemissfreud]

Yep! Just pieces of paper folded into crane shapes. I was making a lot of them, from what I can gather.

[baka_jyanai]

OH! I KNOW WHAT THAT IS!

IF YOU MAKE A THOUSAND, YOU CAN MAKE A WISH! I MADE A FEW TO! I don't remember why...

[littlemissfreud]

Haha, you think so~? I guess we must've been making them so we could get wishes!

... I dunno what I would wish for, though.

[flynmabisn]

Yeah! Now that it's over, it would be better for everyone to focus on things that can be fixed or change, or make them happier.

When you hit bottom, there's no way to go but up!

[littlemissfreud]

Exactly! Staying upset doesn't solve anything. Thinking positive helps a lot in any situation~

[flynmabisn]

Definitely. I wish more people believed that.

[littlemissfreud]

I guess it's not that hard to get why others would think otherwise. But at least some of us have the right idea!

Before I forget, what's your name~?

[failhound]

'Tch. How come almost nobody remembers? [it's half a grumble to himself and half a question]

... The cranes were for some spell to bring everybody home. Who knows if that ever got fixed, anyway.

[video]

[littlemissfreud]

Things did sort of warp back to normal. Maybe something happened to our heads in the process~?

I just heard it was for granting wishes. Since we're still here, it didn't work... or we didn't make enough yet.

[video]

[failhound]

I remember fine, they didn't mess with my head! [...] But how'd it go back to normal?

[somebody missed the eggboat]

What's-her-name that was makin' the spell was pretty damn flaky. There's no point making any more 'til she gets her act together anyway.

[video]

[littlemissfreud]

If you say so! As for how, I'm not sure. It's better than having to fix it ourselves, anyway.

I had some other reason for helping her, I think... But I dunno if I'd want to keep making them now. There's plenty already!

[bubbleteatime]

Koishi, [pause] right? That's great! Thanks very much, I... I ran out paper before I could reach three hundred, so... mm, thank you!

It's funny, I can't remember why I made them either. It must have been really bad. But you're right! We've got to look forward.

[...!] Hey, one of these paper cranes has your name on it.

[littlemissfreud]

Mmhmm! Three hundred is a lot, so getting that much is at least a good effort so far!

It does? How interesting~

[bubbleteatime]

Haha, aren't you more energetic than last time! Hm, it looks like there's a message here. Do you want me to read it?

[littlemissfreud]

You think? I can't think of a reason for why you shouldn't. Go ahead!

[witchoftheweek]

Glad to see you are...yourself.

[littlemissfreud]

I'm glad I'm back to being myself too. That was pretty strange, even with otherworldly creatures behind it~

I think a lot of us got younger... Did something happen to you as well?

[witchoftheweek]

I was actually repaired of my injuries from when the monster destroyed the library.

[littlemissfreud]

How lucky~ it's good that you got off easy for that part, then.
