All the characters from this thread died.

It was a glitch in the forums. In a moment, they were brought back to life. 

[BringerofShadows she/her]

Then they died again.

But when they were reborn in a few seconds, nothing had changed at all. 

"If you want to kill, Shadow, then do it elsewhere."

[BringerofShadows she/her]

“Nope. I’m going to do it right here.” All of the characters on this thread caught on fire and burned to death.

It was the fire of love and their passion was so considerable that it deserved such a metaphor. 

[BringerofShadows she/her]

The characters in TLT are still dead.

But what was TLT without the characters? Nothing. 

"How would you like to be a character again, Shadow?"

Ember's head turned toward the killer. 

"I could do it to you again, make you powerless."

Even as the violet Narrator spoke, the charaters' bones reformed into the creatures they once were, unaffected by Shadow's mass killings.

BoS rolled her eyes. “And how would you do that?”

"You know I'll come to power again. And when I do, I'll have the chance to make you a marionette once more. But if you behave yourself... Well, who knows."

[BringerofShadows she/her]

“What if… What if I make sure you never come to power?”

"Let me ask you a question. Are you afraid of Star?"

[BringerofShadows she/her]

Nah.

Nah.

The unnamed Narrator's presence circled the killer. "She was about to help you, you know. But you stabbed her in the back." A ghostly image of Star's pallid corpse appeared at Shadow's feet. "You alone are proof that she did exist in this universe. You've helped us so much already and you don't even realize it."

[Lunamor she/her]

Narrator Lunamor got in a titanium bunker with plenty of supplies and braced for the world shattering battle that was likely soon to come.

[BringerofShadows she/her]

“How have I helped this thread?” Tears silently filled her eyes as she stared at the corpse.

"You've provided the inconsistency that we need. You'll know when this is all over what I mean by that." Ghostly fingertips reached out, wiping the tears from Shadow's cheeks. "All I ask, my dear, is that you calm yourself for a moment."

[Rosharan A.C. he/him]

Narrator A.C. offered Luna a jar of nutella and a live chicken and asked if he could come in the bunker too. Preferably before the world exploded.

[Lunamor she/her]

Narrator Lunamor let Narrator A.C. in cause of the Nutella.

“So now what?” BoS asked while pulling herself away.

"That depends. You can sit here, or you can help Ember collect what she needs. I'm trusting you not to betray us. Great things are in store for you if you are loyal."

[Rebecca she/her]

Narrator Rebecca asked if she could join A.C. and Luna in the bunker. In exchange, she had…um…a charming personality? No wait, she had a potato! Granted, it had been in her pocket for awhile, but it was the best kind; from Idaho!

[Rosharan A.C. he/him]

Narrator A.C. saw nothing wrong with this. They might be able to make a few french fries with the potato. He turned to see if Luna agreed.

[Lunamor she/her]

Luna indeed agreed, then inquired if either of them watched The Amazing World of Gumball.

[Zephrun’s Imperium they/he]

Ember looked at Tom. Time was paused on the man's side. She had other things to do and he could wait for her to get back. Acknowledging that she was safe from the Shadow, she ran to the blonde man from her vision, the one with darkened eyes. Even as he brought out his gun to intercept her, she put her hand on his chest, entering his mind and freeing him. 

You are AJ, she told him. And you belong to someone. She poured feeling into him, making him remember. A whisper of a time forgotten. A rush of Shardic power and the lips of a purple-eyed goddess. Someone who loved him. 

We need your help, Nightshot. 

[Rebecca she/her]

“No, I haven’t,” Narrator Rebecca replied.
