Finally, back to the real world.
Oh wow, I figured I did way worse. Normally I put this at the end of a thing but given that this was the final chapter, I'm going to keep right on going into the epilogue.
I need to know that our pals are alive. Either they're alive or they're homunculi (UG versions specifically), which would itself also mean that they're alive. If "their" corpses have pink blood, there is no version of events that means they're dead.
Oh hey, Kurumi narrates. We like her.
Okay, but our pals are alive, right? I'm Number One of the WDO. So help me, I will send detectives to investigate if the detectives are okay.
Looks like Makoto's done what he promised. He's unveiled the truth of Kanai Ward to the people therein. They see the value of the stormcloud above now.
Kurumi realized that she had plans and has been instead wandering around aimlessly while daydreaming. Okay but on behalf of every neurodivergent person here: felt, though.
Do we get to play as Kurumi? Tell me we get to play as Kurumi.
FUCK YES, We get to play as Kurumi. Are we going to do that RPG thing where, like, you wander around the map saying goodbye to all of the characters who've ever been involved in the story across the whole game, and finding out what their plans for their future are?
THE GUESTS CHECKED OUT THIS MORNING
It's official. We can stop threatening to box Makoto. That's good because I don't know if my plan would have worked. It all depends on where he regenerates from.
The obvious assumption is that if you cut off his head, he'd regenerate his body. But there's a non-zero chance that the source of his regen, so to speak, isn't in his head. It's possible that he would regenerate from his body, and regrow his head instead.
Boy, that would have been awkward!
So help me, if you make me come back here again....
Kurumi's been hanging out with Yuma. She knows how to throw a shopkeeper down a flight of stairs. He's taught her well.
Ooo. Amaterasu's manufacturing raincoats that can block sunlight to help homunculi travel overseas. See, Makoto? This is what happens when you crowdsource ideas.
Of course, Makoto gets all the credit anyways because he's the Great Man of History.
Super weird that everyone keeps calling him Mr. Makoto. I'm sure that's supposed to be a translation of a respectful honorific or something. But. His name is Makoto Kagutsuchi.
If you want to be respectful, call him Mr. Kagutsuchi. Mr. Makoto sounds super weird. That's not how english naming conventions work.
Planning a big event with all of the Master Detectives for our denouement, I presume.
OH MY GOD "Good rain to you" is a saying now. I love it. Everyone here is so happy now. Good rain to you all. T_T
Sunlight-blocking raincoats and UV sunscreen. These problems were so solveable!
Not sure what we're doing about the human flesh nutritional requirements or the feral regenerations yet, though. But those may be harder problems to solve. Unless Real Yuma's incredible ramen recipes have already taken care of that first one.
XD Told y'all Kurumi had fantastic emotional fortitude. "Oh, I'm a homunculus? Neat. Anyways."
It's an adjustment, I'm sure. But people are incredibly adaptable. They can get used to a lot of things, which militaries and corporations take full advantage of. Give it time and it will feel as normal as ever before.
Yeah, what she said! Kurumi's got a good attitude about these things.
Uh. We have solved the feral regeneration problem, right? Because that sentiment's only true if we've solved the feral regeneration problem.
DEMOCRACY, YES
End result still leaves Makoto in power but that's to be expected. The difference is that he now governs with the mandate of his people, rather than demanding obedience from his people.
Want them or not, they're a dietary requirement for homunculi to retain their health and sapience. Do we have a replacement form of nutrition now? Is it Real Yuma's ramen shop? I bet it's Real Yuma's ramen shop.
...I guess we're not going to answer that. Okay. Gonna be a really bad look for Makoto if it turns out the KANAI WARD SIGNATURE MEAT BUNS were wholly unnecessary all along. If we've managed to cook up a nutritional substitute, that's great. But if it turns out we've been eating humans for shits and giggles then Makoto will have some things to answer for.
OH HEY LOOK AT THE TIME IT'S STAIRS O'CLOCK
I am being a tremendously entitled customer by repeatedly disrespecting this man's hours of operation and then blaming him for my own ignorance. They definitely have security camera footage of me circulating a Workplace Karens reddit somewhere.
I should probably do some soul-searching and some self-reflection about that.
But I can do that from the top of the stairs.

iguess ppl saw "autistic ppl tend to have gnc/trans/genderweird/gender incongruent experiences" and REACHED w "xenogenders are a nd thing". 14 year olds on twitter please i am BEGGING you to stop making carrds full of misinfo please pleasbe. pl.
first ask
second ask
third ask
ask 4/4
YEAH it's so frustrating when people treat autism and ADHD like the Only Neurodivergencies Ever. like, we're both autistic and ADHD, but we're neurodivergent in other ways too and it pisses us off so much for people to pretend those just...... aren't things
and even when they do include other things it's like. they don't include BIID, which we experience and which is a neurodivergency. they don't include eating disorders, which we experience and which are neurodivergencies. they don't include psychosis, which we experience and which is a neurodivergency {i know i know it's a symptom not a diagnosis but you get what i mean} and it's so frustrating for people to just like. brush all of this under the rug
AND YEAH LIKE. WHEN TF DID CATGENDER EVER BECOME NEURODIVERGENT EXCLUSIVE like. it's a gender related to cats. okay. that's it. where in there does it say neurodivergent exclusive or even mention neurodivergency wtf
and yeah also saying stuff like neopronouns is neurodivergent exclusive is..... ok i don't think it's ableism but i think it's worth pointing out that a lot of people with learning disabilities and intellectual disabilities {both typically considered neurodivergencies} just Can't Do Neopronouns so to say that they're neurodivergent exclusive while a lot of neurodivergent people Can Not Do Neopronouns just doesn't sit right with me. it's like, cutting out a portion of people, and that's not even to touch on the mere fact that some neurotypical people use neopronouns too
and gods same on the carrds thing HSDGSDGSDHGJS we literally collect informational carrds {everyone's got a weird hobby or two i guess, but also if you, listener, are reading this, please send us any you have} and the amount of misinfo we have seen..... i just. wow. like, ok. we're 17. we're still a minor. but we've also been in the MOGAI community since before the term xenogender was even coined. and allow me to tell you, it definitely didn't used to have this much of a focus on neurodivergency. we've talked with the coiner of xenogender; it is Not A Neurodivergent Exclusive Experience
as an autist and multiply ND system, please y'all, stop saying that xenogenders or any "MOGAI" genders are neurodivergent exclusive. stop making genders that don't connect to neurodivergency, neurodivergent exclusive. and when you do coin a neurogender, please, PLEASE think about how vast the neurodiversity spectrum is, how many different neurodivergencies there are, how wide a range of experiences we have. i'm begging y'all
