Summary
A year after saving Vaugarde, the Saviors go back to Dormont for a party in their honor. A very complicated place for Siffrin, filled with very complicated memories— Isabeau is not the only one who's worried, but he's the one to go and find them before the Favor Tree, as if they were waiting for someone.
Or, the day Siffrin accidentally spills it about Loop's identity.

Summary
“Madame Odile!”
You set your drink to the side and twist around as best as you can. “Isabeau?”
You finally spot him running up to you through the crowds of people dancing and laughing. You relax for a brief second until you notice his pale face and his wide, worried eyes. You also note that he’s carrying a bundle in his hands. Upon closer inspection, you realize that it’s Siffrin.
You’re immediately on your feet.
“Isabeau.” You tuck your journal away and your drink tumbles to the ground. You ignore it. “What’s wrong?”
Isabeau slides to a halt before you, panting from sprinting to you. “It’s Siffrin,” he manages to squeeze out. “He won’t wake up.”

Summary
You're still here. After everything you did, everything you went through, you're still here. What a cruel joke.
You had to spectate Stardust's journey through Dormont, you had to watch as they did better than you ever did, so it's only right that you continue that tradition now. You're on the road, they're healing, and you're... still here. You laugh, a sharp, bitter laugh.
Ah, stars. They're all looking at you again.
You feel a tug on your stomach, and try not to gag on the smell of burnt sugar.~~~
What if Loop came with the group after Act 6 (including the secret)? What if Loop could still loop back, even if time progressed normally? What if they used this newfound ability for the purpose of avoiding talking about their trauma, leaning on it as a coping mechanism for their pain? What if I get to torture and subsequently heal my blorbo for ten whole chapters of trauma and crying?
Just as the Universe intended.Series

Summary
You stare up at the gently swaying branches, fractals of light filtering through the space between the canopy, and breathe.
The world breathes with you, in and out, a soft breeze sweeping across the clearing. Grass tickles the back of your neck; you can feel the uncomfortable press of gnarled roots against your spine, and you swear beneath the bark you can feel a heartbeat, a steady thrumming that speaks of life.
It’s all so alive. It’s not the same fabricated, carefully designed set you stood on hours before. There is no stage anymore. The act is over. It’s not haunted by fragments of things left behind in past loops, in your memories, or in other pieces of you torn away from their home and tethered here by the stars. It’s no longer broken, failing, rotting away with the sickening smell of burnt sugar.
It’s. Alive.
… You’re alive.
The air is crisp, the birds cry out, the tree above you waves gently in the wind, and you are alive.
✧✧✧
In which I finally give Siffrin the recovery arc they truly deserve. And by that, I mean a messy one.

Summary
“Oh, but your weapons and equipment won’t be reset though! So that’s good news!”
Equipment and weapons persisting across loops turns out to be a very useful ability as Siffrin works his way through the House of Change.
But this leaves a very important question – How persistent is the party’s equipment?
This seemingly harmless boon soon leads to some… complications. Somebody is beginning to deviate from the script.Odile is perceptive. Too perceptive. She doesn’t remember the loops, but she begins to notice something is off with the books she carries around. Were those notes always there? Is it… describing tomorrow’s final expedition into Dormont’s House of Change?
Perhaps there is something she can research, after all.In short: Siffrin still loops. Odile doesn't exactly remember, but everything written in her notebook is preserved between loops since it's technically her equipment. Complications ensue.
Oh also that Title is going to be subject to change. Still workshopping it, I definitely want to change it to something more thematic.
