Who: Everyone, involved in the labyrinth or not!
When: Day 12, in the afternoon—specifically, immediately after the labyrinth
Where: THE BEACH of Port Perplex, but anywhere really
What:

[FOR POST-LABYRINTH EXPLORERS: you wake up somewhere along the beach, as though you just washed up on shore. it's especially hot today, and yet, the sun bearing down on you doesn't seem to be causing your injuries any additional discomfort. in fact, the heat seems to be relieving some of your pain—you might be lucky enough to feel no pain at all. still, you should probably get some help.]

~*~*~*~*~

[there's some immediately observable changes in Port Perplex. you see, the ocean is a vivid aqua color now, no longer trapped beneath a thick fog that once stuck to its surface. if you look out in the distance over the ocean, you'll see a beautiful sky. the sand along the shore is now soft and warm. furthermore, there's some coconut-bearing palm trees dotting the shore. in summary, this looks like a tropical beach now!

for the next however many days, you'll be able to discover some other things, as well as participate in the festivities taking place all along the beach. it helps that your employer MIGHT have just given everyone a vacation! you see, every single one of the townsfolk are thrilled for this new development, and they're more than eager to celebrate its arrival!]

...this was a labyrinth...?

Apparently.

[UNSURE]

Not long ago, Echo experienced a labyrinth that had involved costumes and fortune-telling...

. . . That doesn't sound too bad?

Exactly--it was not bad at all. It is simply shocking. To experience that, and hear of this...

[ shrugs ]

You got lucky. Nothing to feel bad about.

Do not put it that way. Luck is nothing.

[sighs]

I do not feel bad. It is... confusion.

Because you escaped a bad labyrinth and others did not?

That's concern.

Then... it is concern that Echo feels. We were never informed about the labyrinths.

[giving this some additional thought]

Yes.

I suppose... it is concern.

Have you never felt it before?

--Echo has felt many things!

[...kneejerk reaction]

Yeah, and?

I have felt it before.

I like how you're very determined to prove that you have feelings.

[almost doesn't want to respond, but]

Echo cannot help it. That is all.

I'm not accusing you or doubt you have them. But feelings can be new. Even to me.

Even to you?

Even to me. I've always had a hard time with it.

...somehow, Echo is in disbelief.

Sure, but that doesn't make it less true. I could never fully express myself.

Is there... a reason?

Not that I know of. Some things don't need a reason or a terrible backstory. They're just part of us.

Of course. That makes sense. I do not have much in particular to say on the subject. However, it does seem like you have come a long way. Not that Echo knows what you were like.

I had good friends to help me out.

...that is good.

[how did we get on this topic]
