week four | match ceremony & end

Welcome to the final match ceremony, where the teens bet everything on what they’ve figured out. Their wishes, their victory all depends on this.

Everyone is led to the same balcony set up as the previous weeks, and are left to get settled. There are cute finger foods and lovely drinks to have, as per usual.

To one side, there's a small stage of sorts, with a podium where the characters will place their hands to lock in their answers.

Wednesday and Ryuji, as well as Ritsuka and Lessing still have their place of honor over to the side, and they’ve now been joined by Mark and Anna. Enjoy chilling over there! The rest of the contestants are ushered to the main seating area to get all settled in.

And, standing in front of the makeshift stage, with a set of six unlit lights behind him and three lit lights, stand the two Co-Overseers. The Tsukasa and Nene fits for the final ceremony! Classy! You all dressed up nicely too, right? Tsukasa is counting on you guys.

Both Nene and Tsukasa take the stage with practiced movements, as if they are very used to stepping onstage together, even though this is the first ceremony where Nene will be taking part.

Tsukasa makes a sweeping gesture to the gathered company, a sincerely bright smile on his face.

"Welcome to the final Match Ceremony. This is it! I hope you are all ready–though, of course, I’m sure that you are.”

He clears his throat, and nods towards the three lit lights.

“You now have three Perfect Match lights–one for Miss Addams and Ryuji, one for Ritsuka and Lessing and one for Mark and Anna. This means that you only need five more to finally succeed.”

He takes a deep breath, and then glances over at Nene, meeting her eyes.

She takes over. Despite her tremulous introduction before, when she’s onstage, she seems to have a professional confidence that was lacking before, voice clear as she continues, "You’ve picked the ones who are going up this week, so this shouldn’t be a surprise… but let’s start.”

Tsukasa nods, and turns his attention to Sanji.

"Sanji, if you please?"

--

Happy Match Ceremony! Each character picking this week will be called up in an order determined by the producers (read: rng'd). Each will get their own sub-toplevel that characters can react to at will.

After the matches have all been locked in, we will then find out just how many you all got right.

THIS IS IT! WE FINALLY MADE IT!

[Oh, he will gladly open his arms for that hug.]

And thank you for all of your earnest hard work over the past four weeks--and your friendship as well.

You did very well.

... That's just because I've endured a lot for love, so I know how it feels.

[ to fall into it. to grow into it. to be scared of it, delighted by it, nervous and excited and hurt-- ]

I just wanted it to be a little easier for everyone else. And, you know, if I ended up finding someone on the way, then that was fine too. But I didn't think I was really looking for someone.

[ because, as they'd discussed... it felt odd to be over sosuke. it made her upset in a weird way, and it still aches a little bit even now. ]

[It's in moments like these when Tsukasa thinks that Anna's gentle maturity truly does show through. Maybe there are a lot of people here who have to save the world, or fight monsters, or do all sorts of wild and crazy things. But Anna understands the human heart, and there's value in that for everyone here as well.]

Maybe the fact that you weren't looking for someone makes what you found all the more precious?

[He feels, in a lot of ways, like he's in the same boat, honestly. Finding someone at your side when you were prepared to continue walking forward alone is... really something special, he can't help but think.]

Sure, but my lottery luck's been totally blown on finding him day one!

[ SHE'S GETTING TISSUES FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE, TSUKASA. ]

[help. He laughs at that, squeezing her warmly in that hug before he finally lets go.]

Then you'll simply have to make your own luck! Surely, after all of this, that won't be that hard?

[Aside from the fact that Anna will only be getting low grade merch from any lottos she partakes in, yeah....]
