DAY ???
[ Once upon a time, two heroes were having a very fun time in the city.
Okay, maybe it wasn't particularly fun. Maybe it was a normal time. Just two guys hanging out, doing whatever an ancient timeloop bound phantom thief and an ancient reincarnating demigod do in their spare time, you know?
But this day was unlike any other, because on this day said demigod finds himself consumed, and by consumed I mean there's a sudden swirl of wind around Eclipse, kicking up dust like a very small tornado. A very small starts to slowly peel away at his colour, pulling them away like yarn that dissolves into thin air. And at the same time, he begins to fade…
Mars, on the other hand, is completely fine! So that's nice. ]

Are you seriously just waiting for us to come out? What if we decide to live in here now?
no subject
Any attempt to stay where you are would only result in both of you losing yourselves. We are very sorry for the inconvenience, but please understand that this is how this place works.
no subject
Okay, so how do we both get back without losing ourselves?
no subject
[why is she calling him out like this!!!]
I'll give you a cool glowstick if you send us back.
[bribery]
no subject
This program does not have a physical body and cannot hold a glowstick. This program also continues to not be able to send those undergoing image failure anywhere. Warden, of course, must be sent back as soon as possible, and will be once his absence has been noted and filed. But Spring Born Wind will not go anywhere until his image stabilizes, and there is no guarantee that will be back to Tokyo-F.
Warden, you said before that you don't care what the fans think. As true as that may be, they are the reason you are you. What they see of you changes what they think of you, and what they think of you is what you are. And if they don't think of you, then you aren't at all!
Remember, remember, remember! Everything that happens, happens because of you! Who you are and who you become depends on what you make those who see you believe!

[he hates this he hates this he hates this he hates this—]
[because it's true. and he knows that, as someone who was once transferred before himself]
[his gaze narrows but he says nothing and waits instead for Eclipse's question to be answered]
no subject
If this program's extrapolations are correct, your situation is not so extreme that you've lost your fanbase. Spring Born Wind is still popular enough, even if Spring Born Wind of Heart Soldier Senshi is no longer of interest to them. This program is sure someone will eventually produce some popular work or otherwise spark some conversation that puts you under a different spotlight, but a spotlight nonetheless.
no subject
...He looks down for a moment, before he looks back up. ]
So it has to be a 'different spotlight'?
no subject
[. . . immediately bristles at the implications here, gaze darting from Eclipse and back again]
He's Eclipse of Heart Soldier Senshi. The fanbase can't take that from him.
You can't take that from him.
[nevermind that both can, but, u know]
no subject
...
Actually, this program isn't sure what department handles complaints about the world being unfair. It would lodge a complaint about its own programming if it did.
no subject
Uncofrtunately, I don't think I can really wait for the fans to put a spotlight on me.
no subject
[shuts the door in the fairy's face again, pressing his back against it as he inhales sharply, raking his fingers through his hair]
[. . .]
You understand what I'm saying, right Eclipse? That no matter what some stupid fans think of your or what this stupid fairy is saying-- you are an important member of Heart, right?
no subject
Even when you say that, it doesn't exactly change the fact that the fans are the ones my whole existence depends on right now.
no subject
[. . .]
[in the end he just drags Eclipse into a very tight hug]
no subject
...Even if I go back, I don't think it'd be as someone on Heart Soldier Senshi.
no subject
Stupid.
You're always gonna be a member of Heart. Always.
no subject
no subject
You are. That's not an opinion. It's a fact.
I don't care what color you're wearing. Nothing can change that.
no subject
...But thank you.
no subject
[gives Eclipse's shoulders a very tight squeeze, but he looks a little less outwardly angry and more tiredly resigned. fuck this placeeeeee]
. . . what are you gonna do?
no subject
[ He walks over to the mannequin with the Alcheme uniform. ]
...But this might work.
no subject
[there's nothing but frustrated silence on Mars's end as Eclipse walks over to the AlcheME! outfit]
[. . .]
[he doesn't verbalize it because FUCK FEELINGS, but—]
[I don't want to lose you]
[at least it is written all over his face???]
