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!]

Thanks.

[One more thing.] When you find her, let me know. Please.

Yes.

[a brief pause]

Please do not be upset at her.

[What]

Why would I be upset?

You seem like the kind of person to be upset at someone for making such a bold move—especially when it had repercussions like that.

[just a gut feeling. and a worry.]

... That would make me a hypocrite.

[She'd do it for her friends in a heartbeat.]

Hypocrite...

[no, she didn't expect to hear that.]

Yes. How can I judge them for something I've done myself?

[Lots of introspection, this one.]

...I see.

[totally worth asking her about it, but maybe another time.]

If Echo sees Aqua, she promises to inform you as soon as possible.

Thank you.

You are welcome.

Is there anything else you need?

N—no.

[really, she'd been wanting to save the question about her past until later, at a better time, but... it's not easy putting that aside after all.]

...yes.

What Aqua did. You said that you had done something like that yourself?

Edited 2015-12-14 00:33 (UTC)

Yes.

[So helpful.]

[so not helpful...]

Are you willing to explain?

Depends. Why do you want to know?

Echo would like to hear whatever you are willing to share. It is curiosity, after all.

[Oh boy. This is a friendship thing.]

Let's just say I gave up everything for them so they can have a chance at a happy life.

[look, look, this is TOTALLY just curiosity, ok............]

Is that so...

[giving up everything for them to have a chance at a happy life... Echo's still wary, but asking for much else might feel like pulling at teeth.]

Thank you for sharing that.

[She's just gonna nod... and ask a question now.]

What's with the hair? Born with it?

[wait what]

My hair? Y—yes. I was born with it. It is my hair. Why?

I can't tell if it's actually three different colors, or if it's just some weird trick of the light.

Ah.

Yes.

That.

I never studied my hair that closely. I will look into it when I am in front of a mirror.

[........ okay now.]

Right...

...Echo has asked her questions. If you are finished asking yours, she will leave now.

Goodbye then.

[See you later.]
