Where Are They Now? (5 Year Edition)

This meme was done before in this game, right here, and that is where I am stealing it from. But instead of giving characters the option to return home in this hypothetical scenario, the war is still going on five years from the current date in-game, and BREW still needs everyone.

The question is, what has happened in those five years? The children have become adults, the adults are just a little older without being old, and goodness knows a lot can change in that amount of time. Maybe you're thriving, in your business or your partnership. Maybe not. Either way, with no end in sight, life goes on in the city named after Death.


INSTRUCTIONS

-Post with your characters(s)
-Write a short blurb
about what has happened in five years. Love, heartbreak, sickness, wealth, what was in the cards for your Weapon or Meister, and what has it shaped them into? Set a scene for the present.
-Tag others in the scene they kindly set.
-Profit$$$$$$$$

Psii | that one webcomic

[Five years isn't that long, for someone who lived for thousands, but this particular five years is close runner-up for most tumultuous of Psii's life. Things were very, very bad for little while. Pretending you don't have issues has a way of only working for so long, and then they explode. Psii's sure is only thanks to love and patience of family and friends that he isn't locked in containment center for glitchy humans.

Took a lot of patience, too, he knows, most of all when inability to acknowledge emotions except in most factual terms swung alarmingly into inability to keep from expressing all of them. For them, must have been like being on wrong side of dam that had burst.

But Psii's okay now. Mostly. He can use personal pronouns, just... doesn't always. Force of habit. And has learned to catch self before mood swings go out of control. Usually.

He did finally learn to eat foods that aren't full of sugar. It took intense debate with BR and coaxing from SS, but between efforts of two of them, Psii couldn't stay stubborn, and now grudgingly eats weird Earth vegetables. But he still eats cream out of cream puffs with claws.]

Mister Psii-iiiiii~!

[Cupid's never had Psii ask her for love advice, but lord knows she's dying to give it to him. She just needs the opportunity to arise.

For the moment though, she'll settle for constantly plying him with sweets whenever she runs across him- as is the case now.]


How are things today?

[Psii has never had problem urgent enough to overcome natural reticence about talking about love life, or lack thereof. Could probably go to Cupid for advice about something like think like partner back, but don't know if he still has crush on me, except would be horribly awkward.

But she's expert in human romance. Even if could bring self to ask her about Condesce and why, why can't seem to just ignore her, doesn't think she'd be able to understand.]


Hello, Cupid. Am all right.

[Suspects she has food for him--she usually does--and gives her a smile.]

How are you?

[Considering Death City? The answer was probably 'yes' as to whether or not his partner still had a crush on him. Just the way people in Death City seemed to work. Also technically, she works with monster romance- learning the troll system wouldn't be hard, if someone explained it to her.]

Oh, you know me sweetie- busy as a bee, most days. I have a phone meeting with France in an hour and a video-conference with Germany right after, and tomorrow I'm off to Iceland to handle something about a volcano-- just, you know, the usual.

[She waves a dismissive hand and makes herself comfortable, holding up the other to show a ribbon-tied box.]

Got a fresh batch of creampuffs as I was passing Death By Pastry though. Thought I should share.

Would be rude not to have some, then. [A little smile.] Just don't tell SS how many am going to have, because I might get in trouble.

Never would have thought international auspistice would be so much in demand.
