"It may not have been your intentions, but in the end, that's what happened. It... Doesn't matter. It's all water under the bridge anyway." Mercy stood up. "You should get some rest. I have a surprise for you all tomorrow."

"Wait. One more thing." Iteral reaches her hand out... and, in her bag, a few things stick out. Her bag is far less cluttered, no more metallic clunking apart from jingling keys. In fact... even the passive clockwork sounds of her voice have quieted down. She hands over her wand. "Mom. Can you teach me a spell... one that, when I cast it... I can reminisce of you?"

She looked at the wand for a moment. Then, she smiled lightly and took her own wand out, taking Iteral's in the same hand. With both wands, she jumped onto the railing of the balcony and pointed them to the sky. "Santa Terra." With the words to the incantation spoken, the stars began to connect and form constellations. Images of the constellations flew down around Mercy and danced around her for a while making a loud twinkling noise, then they began to disappear one star at a time, leaving glitter in their wake. Mercy watched them intently, as she hadn't cast the spell in a while. Once it was over, she handed Iteral her wand again. "There. Is that a good one?"

Iteral looks at Mercy, a little amazed. She shouldn't be, with her being a goddess and all... but still. Taking her wand back, she smiles. "It... it is. Mom, ehm, I... just want to say..." At first, she raised the wand, wanting to prove that she could do the same spell right now. But then... she lowered it again and simply went close to Mercy, embracing her. "I love you mom. Please, no matter how tenacious I am, how stubborn or angry... please never forget it. Santa Terra." She attempted to cast the spell now. To have the constellations orbit the two of them instead of just her.

Mercy watched the constellations surround them again and returned the embrace. "I love you too." She spoke on behalf of her and Ambrose, even if she couldn't tell Iteral the truth of what happened to him. Once the constellations faded again, she let go and looked down at Iteral with a soft smile. "Come on, let's get to bed."

Iteral nods, looking up at Mercy. This brief conversation and spell practice was enough for her to brighten a bit. Literally, her face had a bit of color again. "Alright. I, ehm... do you mind if I sleep in your room? Or with Caspian? I forgot to heat my room and... I bet Makoto doesn't want me in his." It was obvious she was lying about the heating. She just didn't wanna be alone tonight

"I'll be busy planning things out. I'm going to become incredibly busy over the next few days, and that may span on for months or even years. Meaning tonight, I'm going to work over a few things. Caspian and Eclipse are in my bed so you can join them, but I don't want any complaints if Eclipse rolls onto you." She meant it lightly, as a joke.

"I would offer to help you out... just like how I helped Ambrose out years ago and even put a large sum of that money you gave me to rebuild everything. I know I can be difficult but... I'd feel great, if I could." She laughs a bit, thinking about Eclipse on her like a snake scarf. "... would be cute, Eclipse or Caspian on me."

"Cute until you suffocate." She scoffed teasingly, opening the balcony door and ushering Iteral inside. "They're right there, so be quiet."

Iteral nods. "I help when I can." She said before Mercy could open the door, even changing shoes to bunny slippers to be even more silent. She sneaks around, trying to be as careful as she could. It was... convenient that her clock sounds and such dialed down.

"I'm working at my desk next to them so I can watch over them. Grab a chair and a pen, this'll take all night." She motioned to the tall stack of papers sitting on the desk.

Iteral did not respond but gave a thumbs up, taking a chair and, well, she took a bit of time because she did itty-Itty-bitty [:p] steps to not make a sound, giving a thumbs up again to signal she's ready.

‘When you say it like that… I think we do deserve a happy rest to our lives.’ Rūkasu says, cuddling closer to Matsunaga and getting a blanket on the couch to cover both of them.

Caspian and Eclipse both sleep soundlessly on Mercy’s bed, warm under the covers. Eclipse moves around the bed a little bit before settling in a spot.

Mercy handed half of the stack to Iteral and began working herself, glancing over at the boys every once in a while.

'Mhm...' She yawned quietly and got comfortable, looking out the window for a while. Her eyes eventually closed, and she fell asleep snuggled against Rūkasu.

Rūkasu fell asleep soon after Matsunaga, leaning his head on her shoulder and cuddling up against her smiling. He was happy that he would be able to spend the rest of his life in peace.

Iteral went over the paperwork as well, it was just like five years ago. Heh. History repeats itself sometimes. She went through her stack somewhat fast, occasionally looking at the Bois and Mercy.

(Timeskip)

Late in the morning, Mercy had finally finished the papers and organized them in her desk. She noticed the sun had risen a little while ago, and moved to get everything ready for her small surprise.

Iteral sat next to Mercy, her stack of paperwork was done a little faster and she ended up falling asleep, head in her arms and snoring lightly, though when her mother moved away... she actually remained asleep, just shifting a bit.

After getting everything ready, she began to wake everyone up one by one, starting with Makoto first. Though, she knew he didn't need sleep, she continued to the planetarium to get him. "Makoto, dear, are you in here?"

Makoto turned his head. He hadn’t been asleep the whole night, obviously. “Of course I’m in here”

”Mysterious… surprising… and law-defying… Isn’t that right?”
