I have been informed that I am to return to my own timeline, for the sake of stability of my own time. I will be leaving shortly, but I felt that I should message you before I do so.
I am glad we met. I am glad that you have come so far, in accepting others and yourself. I hope you can continue to practice meditation... And I have a request for you. If possible, I would be indebted to you if you could continue to teach others in my stead, should they need it. Even if it is difficult. Even if you do not think they deserve it. Conquer anger with non-anger. Conquer badness with goodness. Conquer meanness with generosity. Conquer dishonesty with truth.
[For several moments, there's nothing: the message is marked as read, but It seems like there's not going to be an answer over text, or even an answer at all.
As Zenyatta begins to make his way to the portal room that'll ultimately send him home, the reason for that becomes clear.]
Zenyatta!
[Jin's quick footsteps echo through the hallway before he stops in his tracks, a few paces behind Zen.]
i know icon is human but hes robo rn ok, just pretend
[He's glad the message was at least read. He's certainly left places on worse notes. He doesn't have any belongings to take with him that he doesn't already carry with him at all times, except now there's the addition of a cloth tied around some food provided by Mettaton.
Upon hearing Jin's voice, he turns, and sounds rather delighted.]
Oh! Jin. Thank you for seeing me off. I had hoped you would.
Oh, please. Like I'd let you leave with just a letter.
[He smiles back at Zenyatta, expression warm, but bittersweet. He's said goodbye to too many people this way, and Zenyatta... well, he'd assumed, however naively, that he'd always be around somehow.
[Even when he didn't feel like he deserved it-- sometimes, especially then.]
Hey, uh... I never told you this, but... In my realm, we traversed worlds, too. I'd just never been here-- and ALASTAIR doesn't have the same capabilities energy-wise that we did back home. Maybe I really could see you, as we are now, again. Once we've kicked Zymandis in the collective rear.
I'll tell you about everything you missed here. I promise.

Apparently not.]
So... this is it, huh.

I believe we will see each other again, Jin. Be it in these forms, or within the Iris.
I know you will do well here. I have faith in you.
