<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*while an outer layer of it seems to stretch and contort, the main aspect of it is still completely solid*

You're running out of options and time.

*punches in your direction, sending a destructive, concussive wave of kinetic energy your way*

@souleaterfan320

I don't see a countdown anywhere.
*The waves move past us and dissipate*
But we can try out other options.
*Interweaves my fingers as all amaranthine that can be interacted with is locked in place*

You've got it! Six-Point Technique: Neverending Worship! *Two massive cymbals of hard, high-energy light crash into Cain and Abel to smash them into each other*

@Disdain

*a majority of the Amaranthine around them explodes violently from within*

*the moment you freeze them, the flicker, moving briefly from dynamic to static during your action, then back to dynamic. they all explode around you, continuously for a duration of 20 minutes*

*Pulls my hands apart and whenever the amaranthine becomes dynamic, it reverses its action, pulling it together*

@Legend Begins

*While you focus your strings on that, the amaranthine around you rapidly flickers between static and dynamic, Quickly closing in around you*

Perhaps it's time for the grand finale, that you may return to your home to rest.
*Bows as seven planet-sizes circular portals open behind us with an overwhelming suction force, pulling anything that enters them outside the edge of Existence*

@Techspert

*my amaranthine begins to eat away at the edges of the portal to destabilize it, whilst I anchor myself into the walls of the Amaranthine sphere we're still in, physically locking me into place*

@souleaterfan320

*Snaps, and the portals move toward each other and merge together before warping around our group in a sphere; the portal sphere grows outward and everything that it touches is warped outside the edge of Existence*

Totalis defensionem.
*A disk of brilliant white and pink light forms above my hands*
Ruby, reinforce it!

@Etcetera

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

*Red umbrellas of Absolute Order appear over everywhere in the area; I fuel them so they can neutralise the energy*

@Mammalia

*Flies through the stream of the blast harmlessly and slams the bottom of my staff into the disk, shattering it to bits and simultaneously dispersing a spacial disruption field throughout the area so that it can break through and overwhelm the order*

@Inimical

*Magic tendrils extend from the shattered pieces of the disk and grab onto you*

shinji: .....I did not expect you to be so accepting of that.

@souleaterfan320

Look, I've said it before and I'll say it again. I understand that life can be absolute shit sometimes, to the point that it's worse then dying. So I'm not about to be selfish and ask you to keep living just to ease my conscience.

But by damn I still care about you, and at this point I'm not gonna just let you go out with a whimper just before the finish line. To go out without much of an impact or even a loss of impact would be terrible after the ammount of time you've held on and the things you've suffered through. So try to just give yourself a breather, a break, so that you can finish things properly.

Whatever you decide to do after that point will be your choice, and for as much as I might hate it, I'll do my damn best to respect it. ...it'll hurt, but loss isn't something people can avoid, especially if they have those they care about.

@Etcetera

*They hit and are impeded by a circular barrier around my person and the beam continues to rain down on the area unrelentingly*

shinji: .....I just find it so hard to believe that you care so much about me. you just met me, yet... you're risking for me. why? where did I earn that...?

@souleaterfan320

Who says people have to earn the care of others?
...No like seriously, who? I wanna punch those idiots the most.

But that aside, you can account part of it to me being an empathetic fool at heart. I try not to let it show, or hinder me really, but it is a part of who I am. To know that there are people out there that are suffering through bad circumstances and decisions hurts. Especially because I know I realistically can't do much of anything, even if I had the time and the effort to help. People aren't exactly receptive to help if they aren't looking for it, with you being a good case in point. And yet, sometimes pushing through the kickback works, if you're willing to put in the effort.

Granted, it took a promise for me to stick around at first, but I do care about you at this point, like many of your other friends. They're not about to stop caring about you just because you're doing some dumb things.

Shinji:
Eh, I don't know about that one. Pretty sure Techi wants me dead, at this point.
