I believe the implication is that kiritsugu believed kirei dead

Initially maybe, but he can't have failed to notice him still being alive and running the Church....

i honestly think he did due to his frequent out of town trips.

I'm not at all convinced of that. It seems like a pretty massive oversight given that Kotomine was living openly in Fuyuki. And, the same would surely apply with regards to Rin's situation here. If he didn't know who her guardian was in canon, why would he know her status in this timeline was any different? He never saw Aoi getting killed in canon, or even cared.

I think the situation is different enough here

I don't see how it is, at least from his viewpoint.

Well if you want to ignore the hole I see then that is up to you,  moving forward is there anything beyond this point?

Fair enough. Honestly, I've not decided on things like this yet, I just don't think it necessarily would be the way you suggested.

moving forward is there anything beyond this point?

Honestly, I need some idea of where to take the stories. I basically only have a set-up right now, rather than an actual plot. The reason I posted them was to get some help with that, really....

Ok, are Rin and Sakura both masters here?

Ok, are Rin and Sakura both masters here?

I would imagine so. Sakura is the Matou family heir here, after all.

[lantzblades]

Then that is a big issue, they'll be competing against each other  (side note auto correct suggested they compete against batman) so then you have a great story element right there.

[Cherry Lover]

Hmm, yeah, that is definitely an interesting story element, because they will love each other as sisters (probably even more than in canon), but they will also both want to win.

I haven't worked out their exact relationship yet, though.

[lantzblades]

Moving on, any more areas you can think need work?

[Cherry Lover]

Well, pretty much the entirety of both stories "needs work". I only have a very basic concept outline right now. Exactly what Shirou's role will be would be good to work out, but I think we fundamentally disagree on that.

Which other story? I thought we were discussing one

The Rider one that I mentioned in the first post.
