So Familiar a Gleam: Conclusion

Time to leave!

There is not much of the city left, but the park is holding together as those anchoring help those who are not voidtreckers through back to where they belong. Monsters continue to attack and a little further out there is a battle of hearts and minds being fought with the mass of colours and chaos.

Eventually, after the bulk of citizens had been evacuated everyone with SCA's on would hear Jin-Roh's voice after a few frantic beeps, as Chiff aligned everyone's SCA's. "We are almost done here, if you are with anyone not tethered to a voidcraft get them to the evacuation point, as quickly as possible."

Anan pulls out of the anchoring point to call out to any defenders in the park. "Come on! Anyone who isn't a voidtrecker! It's time to go."

Luckily those off fighting the entity headed the message and made their way to the park as Jin Roh spoke again.

"Everyone else get ready. When we call it you need to leave. If you don't have your SCA on then get to someone who does."

As the last people rushed to the park Anan calls out again, through her SCA and outloud to the park. "You need to unanchor, before you can evacuate. Everyone be ready."

She goes in again though, because there are some last people, those from the large battle, getting through as another message was called.

"Almost there. Be ready. On my command..."

Anan unanchored again. "Quick everyone unanchor."

"NOW" Jin Roh's voice came through strong on their SCA's. Hopefully those with SCA's would grab those without.

There is some outside help as well, the train pulls anyone who is unconscious or still under the entity's control, forcibly evacuating them. This includes Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji and Zagreus.

Luggage Carriage

There has been a mass evacuation before and that was crazy enough but since then the population of the train has almost doubled and now it is an extremely tight squeeze as everyone crashes into the luggage carriage at the same time.

The train jerks and rolls as they enter into the void at breakneck speed and again as they seem to slow, rather than speeding off though the void.

There's a crackling from their SCA's. "Voidtreckers? Voidtreckers come in!" Anan's voice. "Please tell me you made it..."

There's only a few moments of signal and soon they are flying though the void again, away from the strange non-world, the entity sealed for now. To new adventures, but first hopefully some time to recover from all that has happened.

cw abuse trauma and sex-negative language

Even queer Devero from the queer future doesn't have a kind answer for that one. He sobers a little, peering at Yondu from his-- well, kind of awkwardly close vantage. "Hey, you're not dead yet," he says gently. "Who knows what could still happen?" He nudges Koumyou with the hand draped over Yondu. "Just ask him.

"As for me," he says with a laugh, "I'm just a--" he starts, and then his throat kind of closes on the word his tongue supplies next: slut. He is, of course-- why else would he be so willing to fuck anyone Madame paired him up with? And so eagerly, too, his body so exquisitely responsive to certain stimuli. And he'd had a lot of casual relationships in the Guard, hadn't he?

He craves sex. He'll fuck anyone who looks at him and beckons as long as Madame says it's okay. And how lucky he is to have her guidance, lest he just fall into bed with anyone, lest he lose control over the predator inside of him, lest he take advantage or get taken advantage of.

He's just a slut, and sluts need a guiding hand.

All of that careens through his mind in an instant, one of those mental landmines detonating. But he-- he can't melt down right now, not with Yondu here between them-- this is supposed to be for Yondu's benefit, Devero, don't you dare fucking ruin it--

"Polyam," he gasps out, because he has to say something and it's the closest to slut. "I'm polyamorous."

Okay, what Yondu just said sounds... lonely. It makes Koumyou kind of glad he'd never had to give the topic a second thought until recently.

But Devero gets a concerned look from the priest, brows furrowed. It's the shift from a laugh to hesitating to gasping an answer out-- Koumyou knows those signs. Something mean is going on in Dev's head. Almost certainly something shaped by that woman.

He takes the hand draped over Yondu, and squeezes it gently. Hey, he's right here.

"...I am obviously the best question-asker," Koumyou says to them both, sounding a little apologetic, "it's alright."
