The only thing that was immediately clear to West when he arrived back at the front gate of the school was that he had a lock around his horn. He ran his fingers around the curve of it, deciding that it was more than one... seven locks. On a ring. Around his horn. Okay. Everything else seemed the same: Xiu, Shun, Shehk, that kid, Professor Emerys, Hel. Hel. He dropped his hand to his cheek, covering the other one as well as he stomped his way over to the ghoul. "Hey, Amrita," he said quickly before turning his attention to the valkyrie. "You'd better watch yer back, ghoul. Should be easier to see without those wings clutterin' it up."

When Shun spotted her Mitsu smiled and raised her arms ready for the embrace as he stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her. It was a nice feeling after all the things that had happened. The memories of their recent trials were still very clear.

Hel looked up from Amrita as West stomped on over, and for a moment, Hel was confused as to why he was covering his cheeks— Oh. OH. Hel’s lips pulled into a wicked grin. Oh yeah, she remembered. “Oh, HEY THERE, West.” The urge to call him Stew was strong. “Did you MISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS me?” Her wicked grin widened. “I better watch my back, huh? Is that a threat or a promise?” She challenged.

"You never know, it could happen again." Amrita crooned softly, a little grin toying on her lips. She had sunk her claws into many sternums in her lifetime, and likely many more until someone took her down on the battlefield. It felt odd to be called friend, but...well, whatever happened, happened...she wouldn't have been named the Eldritch Advisor if she couldn't roll with the punches, so to speak.
"Card game, yes. I would--" A demon stormed their way over, and Amrita's eye widened in momentary surprise. Wow, that was...quite the threat. Hel was dismissing it, but she was no longer paying attention to Hel; West (or Stew) had arrived, and was slinging delicious threats.
Oooh, she liked him. He was fun. She simple couldn't hide the pleased grin that twisted her lips. For a moment she thought about telling him so, but there was time for that later, when there wasn't an interesting little squabble going on.

Shun closed his good eye and took in a deep breath. Yes, after everything that happened, it was certainly nice to have this little moment. He lingered in the embrace, then stepped back.
"It's good to be home," he said quietly, then turned back. He could see West coming into view as well. He nodded to the Wrath Demon curtly, then watching Hel. The valkyrie was certainly... excitiable tonight to say in the very least.
"Looks like everything is back to normal."

"I did.." She nodded. "You are alright?" Olivia didn't seem like much of a fighter and there had been a lot of fighting. "I'm a little disappointed." Jil commented, "To come back and find everything... the same." Did that make sense or was she being odd?

"Can't it be both?" he asked, shaking his head and dropping his hands. There might have been a smirk in there too, but he hid it quickly enough. "Show you what I think of that MISSSSSSS crap too. Someday. Right now... I'll leave you to yer conversation." He looked slightly uncomfortable for a second. No, he wasn't giving up. He just wanted some time to himself. "Tomorrow. My vengeance starts tomorrow."

No Amrita, no. No it would hopefully not happen again. Hel didn’t want her skin marred, okay? She was vain like that. The reaper was still grinning as she regarded West, and laughed. “Ya! It can be both, but say it some conviction, guy!” She teased. “I will also make sure to wear a big, bright red target on my back, alright? Just for you, West…after all, you would not have a fair shot at me without a handicap.” Oh yes, let the smack talk keep rolling. “Tomorrow, eh? Well then…I shall rest easy tonight…and the night after that, and the night after that, and so on and so forth, heeeeeeee.” Hel then licked her hand, and smeared her spittle covered hand right across a spot on West’s face she hadn't gotten yet. His chin.

Olivia did find her pale friend's comment about disappointment to be a little peculiar, enough for her to glance back at the school gates and the campus that stood behind it. It did seem the same, just as they had left it but honestly from the experience, the wight wouldn't have known what to expect anyways. A hole where their school had been? Chaos as worlds were falling apart? Cute minipets running a muck as they claimed reign over the land? ... more flowers?
"It seemed rather fun," at least the parts she could remember. There seemed to be holes but she could much of it, like the fighting and those pretty gloves she had found. And Molan coming to her rescue on the Golden Trail. "Scary in parts," she added while turning back to the other ghoul. "But, I'm alright and it seems everyone is as well." Though, if Olivia actually talked to the others, there might have been a different story all together regarding memories.

The hell she was talking about? Only the most awesome thing she had ever seen, but it was clear Shun either had no clue, or didn't care about the whole experience. Either way she was feeling pretty buzzed. "You know! The....thing we were fighting...." She blinked, trying to recall what had happened. "But there was a great king, and we had to unlock all the locks, and there was a knight that protected everything and we had to go on all these quests!" She was struggling to remember the finer points, and found she couldn't recall what they had been fighting (apart from a giant rip in the sky). But she saw Mitsu had appeared. Maybe she recalled it? "Hey Mitsu! You remember right?" She asked th Lycan.

And then Riyo bebopped on in. "Oh thank Jack." Her shoulders drooped as the tension in her body practically evaporated. She was home. Not fake shitty goddess home. Home for real. Her bed was waiting on her, and her cats, and...
... Her friends.
She had never been more grateful to see people she knew in all her life.

Poke had obviously been talking before she arrived and Mitsu only stared at her blankly before smiling. " Remember?" What was she supposed to remember? There were all kinds of things floating through her mind right now? Shun seemed to have some sort of an idea so Mitsu just left it at that. Instead she managed to spot a familiar face in the distance. " Riyo!" It seemed like everyone had managed to make it back. That was good to know.

Poke seemed to deflate at the obvious lack of interest Shun had about it, and Mitsu didn't seem to know either. Oh well, she found it cool so thats all that mattered.
"Well, I'm glad to see you guys are alright." She said to Shun and Mitsu before another familiar face popped up. "Hey!" She waved at the bakeneko.

Riyo's ears stood up straight as she heard her name called. Somebody was calling her name. It was such a pretty sound.
Her head snapped towards the direction, eyes widening. Mitsu?! "Mitsu!" She shouted louder than she'd meant to. Oh. Uh. The ghoul cleared her throat before (quickly) walking her a** over.
She tried to hide her enthusiasm as best she could, looking the other way to avoid being too excited. "It's good to see you again." At least she was honest about that. She also gave a nod to Poke and... What the hell. One to Shun too.
