I think one of the funniest things (...in a "hitting your funny bone" kind of way) that could happen post-game is

Siffrin faints suddenly while they're traveling. He's only out for a few seconds, he says he feels fine once he comes to, but no one's having it and they make him sit for a while and eat some of Bonnie's snacks while peppering him with some questions to try to figure out what might have caused it. He admits his head's feeling heavy, fuzzy, but it's starting to clear up, and he thought he got enough sleep, he ate breakfast, etc. It doesn't seem like he's hiding anything and while he still has concerning moments he's been getting better so they figure he might have just gotten less sleep than he thought or maybe went too long without eating (which the snack would have already helped with) so they just make sure to stop traveling a little earlier and let him rest.

And the next day Siffrin's fine! Better than fine. They seem in a genuine really good mood and they're making stupid puns with Isa at everything and they just seem...very comfortable in their skin. Which everyone is glad to see. They're getting better! The group is having a calm, peaceful moment around a campfire, Siffrin whittling a wood bird, when they pause mumbling, pause carving, and contemplate the bird. Mirabelle asks them what's on their mind.

"Oh. I just started thinking of my parents," Siffrin says. "I hope they're okay? I haven't seen them since..."

Their words trail off as they think about when they last saw them. And how after that, they couldn't remember 'last seeing them' at all. But they remember two distinct faces, blurred by time yes but there, and everyone else is watching as Siffrin's face grows pale and his eyes go wide until Isa suggests they put the whittling knife down, please, because both their hands are shaking.

"I remember...I remember? I--" They quickly say a name, and Odile's eyes widen.

"That's the island that disappeared. But--"

"I shouldn't be able to say it!" Siffrin says, and then says it twice more. "I shouldn't be able to say it, last time I tried saying it it killed me!"

This sets off a small eruption of "THEN WHY ARE YOU SAYING IT NOW, STOP" around the camp, and Siffrin quickly shuts his mouth, shuts down, ducking his face into the collar of his cloak.

"Sorry," Mirabelle says. "We're not mad at you, that just...that scared us. But just now, you...you didn't hurt yourself saying it, right?"

Siffrin shakes his head, but still seems upset, staying hunched into his cloak. The whittling project is completely forgotten, both bird and knife discarded on the ground as he wraps his arms around his legs.

"We're not mad," Isa tries to reassure them.

"'m a little mad," Bonnie says, because why is Siffrin going and yelling things that killed them once. That's just dumb.

Then Odile says the name of the island. "It's not a taboo word," she says, "but something's strange. I can think about the island now, too. Why is that? Siffrin," she says. Pauses.

They're trembling like a leaf, and she sighs.

"This isn't an accusation. But did you...use Wish Craft? I can't think of how else that kind of mental barrier could have been lifted."

"Not, not on purpose," Siffrin says. "I don't remember--but I must have, and not just on me--if you remember too--I used Wish Craft on you and I didn't even know and it could have gone wrong it could still go wrong I'm sorry 'm sorry sorry sorry,"

The rest of the night is spent between trying to calm Siffrin down. He's extremely upset because he doesn't even remember when he would have made the wish to try to remember exactly what he wished for, to be sure it's not going to go horribly wrong like the last big wish. He didn't like not having his memories, yes, but he was happy with the others and doesn't remember any wish, any ritual, but he can't see what other explanation there is. They get him to sleep and discuss what's happened a little more. Mirabelle and Isabeau remember knowing about the island too now; nothing's really changed for Bonnie. No one remembers Siffrin engaging in anything like a ritual besides his muttering while whittling, and while rituals can be subtle, Siffrin seemed so honestly upset that none of them doubt he wasn't trying to use Wish Craft. Which...begs the question of how he could have managed to accomplish lifting the memory suppression on the four/five of them (does Bonnie count?) now when from the sound of it he consciously tried to remember during the loops, when he would have been most desperate to remember, and failed. The only thing they figure out is Odile and Isabeau piecing together that the fainting episode the day before might have been when the Wish actually went into effect; they'd all felt something slightly strange right before Siffrin fainting, but concern for their friend's health had obviously taken priority. The effect of the Wish Craft might have hit Siffrin harder because there was more for them to remember, yet they hadn't consciously realized they could access those memories until something--likely the whittling--caused them to think back to their childhood.

The group had been headed to a harbor town. There they learn that it's not just them remembering the island. And it's not just memory, either. Sailors are practically bursting with excitement that an island lost years ago has suddenly reappeared.

At this point Odile and Isabeau are 100% convinced Siffrin's not responsible because yes he nearly broke the world once with Wish Craft but that was when the intent and ritual of his wish had gotten combined with the intent of all the Vaugardians, Siffrin alone and without a clear intention could not have accidentally Wished an island back. ...They just need to convince Siffrin that he's not going to turn into a final boss again, now. Also, everyone wants to know what is going on. So it looks like they're going to the island!

tl;dr I don't actually have a plot for this but like. Could you just imagine. The island isn't forgotten because it's actually gone, but because a large part of the population wished for it to be hidden/isolated from the rest of the world for whatever reason. Either the original Wish had an expiration date or circumstances changed enough to make the Wish lose its power (the people no longer wanting to be isolated). And just. post-game. Vaugarde having to have dealt with the King. And Siffrin having lived so long with their head and memory and life so heavily impacted by the Wish. Are just like "SO YOU COME BACK NOW?"

a real winner?

i need more gem and joel they just give off cool kid vibes together ya know

In an au where the island comes back and along with it, everyone's memories, including Siffrin's, I propose that he remembers his name and has a bit of an identity crisis. Just a bit! because now he's got two names, the one he was born with, and the one he gave himself after he forgot his first one. I've been imagining their birth name as Nova. Their parents' little supernova. I'd imagine that they'd be conflicted between honoring the name they've always had, the one they wished for so long to remember, his parents' gift to him and the one he chose himself, chose to build a person around, who's grown from experience and hardship and suffering but more importantly has found a family in.

Maybe he'd talk to Isabeau. He's changed a lot! He should know! Maybe they talk, and he's reminded that he can have more than one name. That it's common in Vaugaurde, expected even! Maybe he can use both, maybe he can switch. The him from before and the him now are still same person. Just changed. Grown and bruised and loved all together. He can be both Siffrin to one family and his birth name to his blood one.

All this to say, I like the idea of Sif's name being Nova
