rainbowstrategy2WHO: The Volunteers for this tribute, as well as a super secret special guest!
WHERE: Kaisou Beach
WHEN: April 3rd-ish
WHAT: The volunteers gather together to open up the path forward for everyone to storm Zodiac via the MetaVerse app. Unfortunately, things don't go according to plan... in many, many ways.
WARNINGS: Probably cursing, will edit if things escalate!
[The moment he receives instructions on what they must do, Jusis gathers together the rest of the volunteers to meet up at Kaisou's beach. While he's waiting for everyone to show up, he rereads them over and over, making sure he understands the process in its entirety. Even if it's simple, he wants to make sure that they don't mess up this part of the process. The absolute last thing Jusis wants to do is have to wait even another day to retry this.
The blond also double-checks to make sure his saber and ARCUS II are secure on his person. With his newly acquired healing magic, it's a relief that he doesn't have to ask Elliot to borrow Canon. That might've given the game away, and Jusis has been avoiding saying anything about this part of the mission to his loved ones. If anyone could talk him out of this, it'd be them, and they can't afford that right now. Jusis has to show that he's trustworthy, and that he's willing to put his money where his mouth is when push comes to shove.]

Date: 2023-03-28 04:16 pm (UTC)Is there slight concern that he stepped too far and is about to get his ass smited? Maybe a little. He wonders what the chances are of the Lord doing divine intervention twice in one day. Probably not great, if he's being honest.
It takes what feels like an eternity for Zhongli to finally respond. Even then, he dare not lets himself visibly breath out in relief, out of fear it'd give away his own nerves. And that...seems like a positive response. Or at least, he's willing to go along with things.
Sure, he's being thrown to the lions to face the app users at large. He's going to be a dead man, he just knows it. Though at least he can take comfort that Zhongli is going to be handling the Order members, so he won't have to worry about anyone eating his bones after he's murdered]
Mm. Leave it to me. I'll talk to everyone.
[Public speaking. His least favorite thing to do. A truly apt punishment for his failure]
Thank you.
[For being able to bend. Not an easy feat for stone. ]

Someone who looks about the same age, though he had been much older. Though he hasn't thought about it for a long time, these events have stirred up memories he would rather keep boxed and taped up. Even so, Zhongli remembers a yaksha of great power and heavy responsibility, and the weight of his gaze when his path forward felt uncertain.
Is Jun upset because of losing his anonymity? Maybe he should... say something...]
... I have no interest in outing your identity to anyone else, if you're worried. It isn't my business.
After all, I myself gave up my name and my post long ago. I'd like to continue living as the man called Zhongli, just as you would rather live as yourself.
[He turns.]
I hope that in time, this becomes a world where your sword and cloak are no longer needed... But until then, keep your eyes open and your heart listening always. The future is carved by the hands of those who do not hesitate to correct the injustices they see.
[Having dispensed some wisdom unprompted, he begins to leave.]

Date: 2023-03-29 04:33 am (UTC)Jun mulls over the words, though mostly it makes him wonder just what exactly Zhongli's life has been like. And gave up his post and name long ago? So just who was he originally? And why did he end up with the Order?
...Egh. he can worry about those questions later]
I wasn't worried...but I appreciate it. [makes his life easier if his identity is kept quiet] In turn, I don't plan to reveal what I've seen about you.
[It's easier that way, for both of them. He doesn't intend to make this man's life more difficult. And as for that advice...
...It's something to think over.]
Thank you, I'll be sure to keep that in mind. Be well, Zhongli.
[Zhongli is heading away, and Jun has a mission to complete. So he won't waste anymore time with that, instead pulling his hood back on and teleporting away]
