The Arcana preferences

When you win the game 2A

This is one possible ending of the last chapter, soon after this is posted the part b will be posted.

Read both if you want or the ending you want.
Part A will be if you show signs of being with them even after death but you are still dead.

Part B will be if you get brought back to them, kinda like you respawned in a game, but this time you have your memories.

Asra:

It's been 2 years. They have yet to get over your final death but have moved on with their life. They continue to run the shop and take care of Faust. But could never move onto another relationship, not after two months ago. They were beginning to wake up when suddenly they saw your ghost, sitting on the bed giving a gentle smile at them. They couldn't believe their eyes but soon a gentle smile on their face as they say "you really did mean you would stay with me huh?" When you nodded they gave a smile and relaxed a bit, simply asking for you to keep visiting them. And ever since that morning they would see you every morning and every night. They always give a glowing smile whenever they see you, it made them at peace. Even Faust got happy whenever she saw you, she would wiggle up to your figure and give you a few happy wiggles to greet you as well as a big "Friend back!"

Julian:

He was a absolute mess, it took him a couple of months to begin to show his face again after the funeral. He still visits your grave, takes care of the clinic. But yet isn't the same, they no longer drink as often. They aren't as dramatic as before, but still enjoys their time as a theater nerd. But he got lonely being alone, even his friends and family couldn't help lower it. So in turn he decided to adopt a small abandoned child. At first he doubted his ability as a father but soon got used to it and helped nurse the child back to health. The young child would go up to Julian at night and describe "a nice person" they became friends with. Whenever Julian asked about them the child would describe you and how you would play toys with them or calm them down after a bad dream. And the child even said "they said they cared for you" that ended up making Julian cry. Knowing that you are looking out for him and his now child.

Nadia:

She struggled most with your death, often breaking down in her room after she retires to her room for the night. Until one night she saw a note on her bed, in your handwriting. She was confused but read and kept it in her bedside drawer. Each night the notes would continue, and she could swear she has seen your figure behind her in the mirror, smiling at her like before. She treasures the notes you gave her from the afterlife. She even started to smile more, what she never expected was to see you fully behind her in the mirror, she glanced behind her but no one was there. When she looked back you were still there, her tears slowly going down her face as she told you, "I love you, Mc, my love." When she saw the smile and the laughing figure of you speak, your voice echoing in her mind say, "I love you too, My Queen." She couldn't stop the tears and smile go across her face, specifically at the nickname you gave her awhile ago.

Portia:

She could feel you around her still, everywhere she went she could feel your aura around her. She kept her cheery attitude staying up front when around others but when she is alone or with Pepi, the tears show. What she never expected was to feel you hug her whike she was crying in bed one night. She could tell it was you, it was exactly how you used to do it whenever you cuddled her. When she opened her eyes she could see glimpses of you laying with her, she could feel your hand on her face wiping her tears. Portia has never missed you more than she does now. She talked to Julian about it the next morning as he suggested to talk to Asra about it, to ask if it's possible. When she does and Asra nods and explains it to Portia she can't help but ask how to keep you around. Asra shrugged but said "for what I know, It's different for every spirit but for Mc I'm positive they are following you." When Portia heard that they smiled, thanking Asra before leaving, immediately feeling your presence again.

Muriel: (sorry couldn't think of much for him)

He already knew you were around him, he could tell it since your routine you did continued even after your death. In the morning Muriel would see Inanna has been let out, his cloak has been set on the bed, and everything for breakfast was set out in the kitchen. Muriel would check the protection charms everyday and everything and they were all still in place. The flowers on your grave never died and instead flourished whenever he was around. Inanna also acted the same as if you were around. But yet still never expected to hear your voice warning him of a nearby storm approaching one night. It startled him but he still greated you as if you were alive and well.

Lucio:

If this man wasn't a mess before he is now. His hair more messy, him never doing his makeup, his clothes less extravagant than usual, even him just not complaining as much. Everyone noticed the change but never said anything about it, rather kept to their usual schedule. On the night of his birthday, he held the masquerade like usual and when he got to his room he cuddled up with the dogs but jumped when he felt a gentle hand running through his hair like how you used to do. He heard your calm humming something you only did whenever he was upset and begging you. When he sat up your figure was laying next to him in bed, a sad look on your face as he looks at you. Before he begins to cry and beg for you to return. When you gave a sad smile he understood and just asked you to keep staying with him, not wanting to let you go.
