Emiya

Emiya blinked as Tsumiko started to get up.

He frowned, knowing that bounded fields would be a good defense and something he wasn't really good at creating.  Yet he wanted the girl to get some sleep.  "Yare yare," he said with a sigh before he started following her.

"You know, I was mostly kidding.  That's not really something I have to deal with now," he said as he rubbed the back of his neck with a grimace.

It was something Emiya Shirou had to deal with when he was alive.

Tsumiko

"But, there is a chance, right? I'll just set them up quickly, it will only take a couple of hours." She tried to push her way past him.

Emiya

The white haired man placed his hands on her shoulders.

"Tsumiko, you can do it tomorrow.  You're exhausted now, get some rest and you can ward the place up all you want tomorrow.  Just make sure that Tohsaka can get in and out whenever he wants.  He has to go out and do cat things on occasion," Emiya said with a grin.

Tsumiko

"No, it's fine. I should have done it earlier, anyway. You never know when you'll need them, but you'll be happy you have them when you do. It never hurts to lose a little sleep and be prepared."

[Elf]

Emiya

It seems like I don't have a choice in the matter.  Damn it, why do I always get involved with strong women? he thought.

Emiya sighed and said, "Fine, I'll let you do it."

Tsumiko

12:00 AM Nexus Time

After a couple hours of drawing fields and casting all sorts of complicated magics, Tsumiko seemed happy with what she'd accomplished and finally headed to bed. Once inside, she collapsed into a deep slumber.

[Elf]

Emiya

Emiya sat in Tsumiko's room until she fell asleep.

So which one of you is going to haunt me first, Rin or Sakura? he thought.

He hoped that at least one of them would give him some straight answers for once.  He wasn't the idiot boy anymore, he hadn't been for a long time.  And if he had to obliterate half of the Nexus to get a Grail to help one of the people trapped within the girl then so be it.

Sakura

Out of nowhere, he felt two large pillows pressing against his back. "She's quite a handful, isn't she, Senpai?"

[Elf]

Emiya

Emiya chuckled as he felt Sakura's massive breasts pressing against his back. 

"I could say that you're a handful as well, Sakura," he said as he looked over his shoulder at her.

And then red filled his cheeks as he realized what he just said with her against him like that.

Sakura

Sakura either didn't notice, or she didn't care. She wrapped her arms around him and pulled herself close. "I am, but that's besides the point." He could feel her soft, cold curves pressed against him completely. "But is she what you expected? Do you feel you made a mistake adopting her as your own burden?"

[Elf]

Emiya

He sighed as Sakura embraced him, her soft curves fitting against his hard muscles.  She was cool against the heat of his body.  In its own, strange way, it was comforting.  The coolness was soothing with his internal forge.

Emiya found himself leaning against her as well as he studied Tsumiko's sleeping face.

"She's a girl. A girl who needs understanding, help, kindness, and some guidance so she doesn't hurt herself or those she cares about.  And no, I don't think it was a mistake bringing her in," Emiya said with a shake of his head.

"She's someone who needs to be saved when the world has wronged her."

Sakura

Sakura basked in her heat, slowly stealing his excess and storing it in herself. "Mmmm, that's true. It's nice to think about what would have happened if somebody had come to save me before it was too late. But then, she wouldn't even exist."

[Elf]

Emiya

"Well apparently the me that was there had to sacrifice themselves to keep the boy alive considering Tsumiko's arm," Emiya said with a frown.

He tilted his head to look at Sakura's face.

"How does she exist though?" he asked.

Sakura

"...Let's go talk outside of here. We don't want to wake her up when she's having good dreams for the first time in forever."

She didn't count that thing with the little goddess.

[Elf]

Emiya

"How far can you be away from her without any issues?" Emiya asked in a soft voice.

He did move away from Sakura to rearrange Tsumiko's blanket and to make sure the teddy was in her grasp.

Sakura

"As far as I want. I can subsist on ambient mana for a long time."

She reached down, and stroked her cheek lovingly, sadly. "Mmmm..."
