fujimaru[ So, that happened.
That whole, "the world almost ended in a truly spectacular way in Uruk at the hands of Beast II, and then immediately the assault from Beast I and the official end of the Grand Order" thing. Technically speaking, Ritsuka's journey is over.
But technicalities have rarely ever worked in her favor. There's still the inspection from the Mages' Association that's due to come at any day now. And that in part keeps Ritsuka tethered to Chaldea, though she'd be one of the first to admit it goes deeper than that. It's hard to think about leaving this place when it's become pretty much the first real home she can remember having. Even if most of the people that helped make it such are gone.
...Most, but not all.
It's early one random afternoon, maybe a few weeks after the end of the Grand Order, and Ritsuka finds herself knocking on a particular door. Mash is busy with helping Da Vinci and the rest of the staff; the other remaining Servants are scattered widely throughout the base, and if Ritsuka is 100% honest with herself, she's lonely. And when in doubt, her preference has always been to seek out other people. ]
Hello...? Quetzalcoatl? Are you in?

She's gone and done it, and she doesn't regret it, no matter how bashful she might be about the gesture. Might as well own it, right? ]
...yeah. I wanted to spend more time with you specifically, so...
[ So, if she wants it, and Quetz wants it, it's okay, right? Right! Own it, Ritsuka! ]
Thanks.
