SINIB:
Sakura

Sakura walked behind him and rubbed his back with her cool, slender fingers which seemed to sap the heat right out of him. "If the answer were so simple as to be found within a night, Rin would have figured it out herself."

She shook her head. "She seems to be having a hard time of it. With her hangover, I mean." Even as the purplehead comforted him, her feet melted off into the void while tendrils busily finalized their breakfast. "And a lot of other stuff, too..."

Emiya

"Is the hangover going to affect Tsumikio?"  His grey eyes widened with panic and then narrowed with anger.  He leaned into Sakura's cool touch, easing the heat that always seemed to radiate from the forge within for the moment.

"I know," he said in a soft voice with a sigh.  "A big chunk of that 'other stuff' is my fault."

Sakura

The tendrils wrapped around his torso and she pulled herself close. "What are you talking about? You're not the same archer who fought in our grail war-you can't think stuff like that. The only way to move forward is to look ahead and take one step at a time, you know?"

She wrapped her arms around him and contented herself with the knowledge that now, at least she could do this much. "I don't know. Usually it doesn't, but... She seems to have drunk a whole lot last night. Way more than usual."

Elf:
Emiya

Emiya wrapped his arms around Sakura and shook his head.

"Yes and no, about being the same Archer in your Grail War.  Depending on when it happened, I may have 'records' of your Grail War and the version of me who fought in it.  I like to keep myself aware of my battles; sometimes it's hard because there's a lot of clutter here."

He tapped the side of his temple with his finger. 

His frown grew.

"She had drank enough to kill several full grown men.  Luckily Tsumiko's body can regenerate, but the poison's still in her system."

Sakura

"I'm having her sleep in a bit. She'll be down in half an hour, probably." Sakura replied quietly, calmly. Too calmly, as if this was just normal to her. "And regardless, the you who is here now wasn't there. It's as much my fault as it is anyone's, Shirou." She held him tightly, as if she were holding on for dear life. "I was the one who did all this, you know." She said quietly.

Ding. The timer went off, and the shadows turned off the heat silently. She simply stood there, holding onto him and pressing her face into his hot back.
