[FGO JP Main Chapter] OC2: Id, Wastehole of the Unsalvageable

[Petrikow]

Nightingale and Nemo Nurse are watching over you in the infirmary. Nurse says you should be back from the wastehole soon. Nightingale doesn't get it. Stop talking about this occult nonsense. Nightingale then senses something and turns around. There, a cup of coffee is placed, which was not there a second ago. Ah, it seems he left. He could've said something, at least. What a rude one.

In the Storm Border library, Amadeus tells Marie he found something that wasn't there before. He shows her a ticket. Marie knows what it is: a ticket that lets you request a chocolate cake at the cafeteria! Salieri told her about it once...

In the cafeteria, the Medusas and their sisters are talking amongst themselves, when Ana senses something, and smiles.

Ozymandias and Arash smile knowingly before a confused Nitocris.

In a corridor, Nursery Rhyme smiles to herself.

On the prow of the Storm Border, Jeanne stands. She's happy that her other self didn't leave without a goodbye. Well, she had the chance, so she took it. She tells Jeanne to say goodbye to the other Jeannes for her. Jeanne asks if there's some message Alter would want to leave for you.

Jeanne Alter
Not really. It's not how I roll.
Plus, the dream is over.
HeShe needs to move on.
Staying obsessed with the past is a right only we avengers have.
See ya.
You'd better win.

Who were those words meant for? The saint, or the Master? Whatever the case, nobody now remains on the prow. The Dragon Witch is gone, together with her tears, her wishes, her warmth and her flame of vengeance. All having faded into the sunlight.

A rare Geronimo sighting, yay.

A bit late, but Cag popping out like that reminds me of Isamu-Noah from SMT Nocturne.

Hello, it's the SPAG

post.

Wow, so little. I'm really impressed with myself.

If Cagliostro is the Last Apostle, what the hell is Kirei then? First Apostle? I guess Last Apostle just sounds better than Last Apostle We Learned Of or Last Apostle That We Met, lol.

Last Apostle that is introduced. There won't be any new Apostle made. Last. Final. End of the line. Yup, CHALDEAS is done making lieutenants to defend itself, no more dragging out the plot, and just let Chaldea resolve the remaining OCs, oh and Olga. It has bought enough time.

Wait and hope.
All the stars in the sky are watching. Never forget that your journey is toward light.
We've had a long journey together, my accomplice.

Bro...

This particularly hit me hard in the feels for some reason

First Apostle is Holmes since he was made in part 1. Rasputin is Second, Third, or Fourth. Douman can only be Second or Third and Muramasa can only Third or Fourth because because Muramasa was made after Shimousa. Olga is Fifth because she was made in the Olympus finale. Moriarty is Sixth because he was made right after Holmes didn’t defect Novum Chaldea in Olympus. And Cagliostro is the Last because Douman made him in Heian.

How have I not realized that makes seven Apostles...

[King_of_Trashcan]

So avengers gone? But what if Guda will lose? Won't he try to get revenge? In final singularity he says to Goetia that in his place,he will try to do the same thing(pointless revenge)

Assuming of course that CHALDEAS isn't just a proxy for Marisbury himself. I suspect he may have uploaded his soul or consciousness into the system before (or even during!) his death. At minimum, it's being to careful and meticulous for a mere unthinking machine.

[Strange_One]

yup. OC2 stuff stuff still makes me sad everytime I see it.

Thanks for the summaries Petri.

[Dark Squirrel]

Thank you very much for the summaries, Petri!

[Daemon]

Will always be funny to me how the apostles are just Olga's band of handsome men

[Rafflesiac]

Just the appendix left to go.

If Guda loses they'll be dead. Can't avenge at that point even if they want to.

Edit: Same as below, thanks for the summary!

[rxrx]

Thanks for the summary again!

Not necessarily.
All of teammates can be killed, and Guda will be saved by Servant. Or Alien World can simply achieve its goal, without killing Guda.

So the Last Apostle finally fell. Wonder how the poster girl of OC3 will relate to the overarching plot. But then again Bhima was just kinda there as well

[Nyarly Alter]

Wonder how the poster girl of OC3 will relate to the overarching plot.

I can only think of this art

Spoiler:

[Petrikow]

In the middle of the Storm Border, Kiichi Hougen is busy retelling a story about onis and monks to Ushiwakamaru, who seems rather uninterested. Is there a point to this story? It is then that out of the corner of her eye, Kiichi spots a monk, just what she had been talking about. Douman says he is sensing something ill their direction and tries to excuse himself, but is stopped by Kiichi, who has a message from Kagekiyo to him.

Apparently Kagekiyo heard from Salieri that something about Last Apostle Cagliostro's aura was similar to that of Douman's. Not only that, but they both did the "Nnnnn!"-thing! Not to mention the pentagram on his forehead! In which case, was Cagliostro just one of Douman's Shikigami? If so, Kiichi Hougen had promised Kagekiyo to slay Douman here and now. Now things are getting interesting, says Ushiwakamaru with a smile.

Douman says they have the wrong idea, but he is not altogether unrelated, that much is true. Before the fight with Cagliostro, he used his prior experience to locate the Malignant Information lurking in your heart, and then sent an antibody together with you. One that allowed your Servants to fight, as well. Anyway, his point being that he's one of the good guys!

Kiichi doesn't seem fully convinced. She asks what he meant by "prior experiences". Doesn't that mean he basically admitted to being Caster Limbo? Douman starts to sweat. Nnnnnnn? Why, did he say something like that?

Out of nowhere, Sei shows up. Kiichi called for her, apparently. Sei immediately realizes her role. Douman's done something again, hasn't he? Douman starts to sweat ever further and begs Sei to not get any closer with that mandarin.

In the cafeteria, Osakabehime is begging Mandricardo to join her MMO raids. He briefly wonders how the hell she is playing MMOs when the internet is gone from the world, but apparently she uses the intranet on the Storm Border to play with Tomoe and others. But to raid she needs one more person! Boudica walks up to them and tells them to not slack and play video games all day. If they've got the energy, might as well spend it doing combat simulations instead. Mandricardo doesn't mind, but Osakabehime is distraught at the thought of having to work out.

You sit with Mash at another table, watching the three Servants. Mash thinks it's an unusual trio, but you feel like they belong together. Osakabehime complains about having to raid, not exercise, to which you offer to join her in her MMO playing. Mash is surprised, but also volunteers.

In a place between planes, Abigail senses something. Is it Dantès? Yes, he admits. But now he is not much more than an echo. Abigail is worried about what's going to happen to your wastehole with him gone. Dantès says it shouldn't be a problem. The journey will soon be over. That said, he will entrust Abigail with the key.

Abigail says you will be sad without Dantès. While he admits that might be the case, she should know that only seven seats are reserved for the battle to correct the Human Order. Even if perhaps one exception may appear. Well, he'll leave his final attachment to Abigail. One day, the gate to the old hell shall open. Then, she will have to take care of it.

Abigail says farewell. Farewell to the flame as dark as night, yet as bright as the stars. Farewell to all avengers. Farewell to the tears who would burn all at the price of their own ruin. May they rest in peace. Even if perhaps there is no blue sky above them, may the dark star light their way.
