Cross Effects 3.0 - April 13, 2015—June 23, 2016

[Elf]

Rin

Rin took Sakura's hand, hoping that Sakura didn't have a spending limit on her card.

The clerk took the card and she whispered to Sakura, "Maybe we could go to the bank in the morning . . ."

The clerk handed Sakura back her card with a smile after running it.  "It went through, Miss Matou.  Would you like me to box it up for you and explain the warranty?"

[SINIB]

Sakura

“Y-Yes, please. That would be great.” Sakura said with a large childish smile plastered on her face. She sat down, overwhelmed with emotion.

[Elf]

Rin

Rin chuckled at Sakura sitting down and said, "I'd be dizzy if I just dropped that much money."

The clerk took the ring to the back and emerged a few moments later with a folder and the ring in a white satin box.  He started to go on about the care of the stone and it's warranty.

[Thedoctor]

Shinobu 

The ground was beginning to give way when Shinobu heard a voice that was probably amplified through a speaker "Need some help getting out of there?". Before she had any time thinking up a response she felt a strange sensation on one of her legs, it felt like a limb but it also felt metallic.  With a sudden pull it tore her out of the ground and into the air, setting her down next to a girl that well, the description mad scientist was probably fitting here.

"Hehe, um, you alright? You should get some clothes." Shinobu heard the girl say and finally decided to speak up.

"Why wouldn't I be alright?, it was merely a simple fall from the sky. Don't you humans usually do that sort of thing?" She asked with a masterfully faked innocent voice that would have fooled all but the most shrewd people.

[Kat]

Mordred

"Switch places with me, Saber, and you will find out it's not easy to keep calm. But enough of the banter, there is also another business I have with people here. If you heard about the destroyed park, I know who is the culprit. One of them tried to kidnap me and the acquittance of mine. And why she tried to do, I think I know the answer." Mordred was reluctant to reveal her true identity nonchalantly, but she thought she had no other choice than be open about that so Henry and others trust her more.

"I'm a Changeling, one of humans who got kidnapped by those accursed bastards from faerie lands. The enemy knew I would emerge from a border land that separates those lands from the mortal realm. Whoever they are, I won't let them meddle with things out of human understanding."

[yinsukin]

Medaka Kurokami

Medaka stood silent for a few moments with Lorenzo in her arms, the others talking around her.  She couldn't believe it.  He was alive, living, breathing and talking.  It was astounding, like some dream.  And it could be a dream.  After all, the last thing she remembered was shooting herself in the head and people do often dream of the dead, particularly people they long for.

Then, Lorenzo left her grip, raising his hands in surrender and reasoning with his attacker.  She turned to see the white haired woman in some sort of agressive stance, with wires coming out of her dress and radiating some strange energy.  It was this moment, that snapped her back to reality as she realized something.

Oh they are talking about killing him

"NO!"  She shouted as she moved in front of him, spreading her arms out to cover more space.  Her hair flashed between the normal blue color and the red color that characterizes her war god mode.  "YOU WILL NOT HARM HIM!"

[Kotomine_Rin]

Toerenzo Remei

"Stop, calm down Meddy. You're still hurt, you need to rest." He spoke up calmly, putting a comforting hand on Medaka's shoulder. "Please."

Then, he walked up calmly to Irisviel, then he sighed and raised his hands in surrender.

"Just let me explain. Let's not fight! There is no need to fill a graveyard for this. Right, lad? I just got here to see my friend, that's all!" He said, his eyes piercing that man and narrowing.

Irisviel, I will kill him.

[Umbra of Chaos]

Urthemiel

The mage had actually began examining his fingernails for any traces of dirt or a chipped nail and didn't even look at the man. Almost as if he was considering the intruder as something of even less importance than the state of his nails. "Your ability to fail at avoiding suspicion is almost pitiful. You haven't answered how you found this place, broke through the wards without notice, or even found us within it. Do try again. It might be funny instead of just sad this time."

[MissingMandible]

"Why wouldn't I be alright?, it was merely a simple fall from the sky. Don't you humans usually do that sort of thing?" She asked with a masterfully faked innocent voice that would have fooled all but the most shrewd people.

Lone Wanderer

"Well, Miss," Jeremy began over the speakers in his helmet, "You were falling beyond terminal velocity, hitting the ground hard enough to make a crater. By all rights, you should look more like a pile of gore."

This...person was clearly not a normal human. He has seen plenty of strange things in his travels, but surviving that? Was it some sort of mutation? The latent FEV virus that every wastelander has has produced some strange results. How did she also breach terminal velocity? It looked like she was fired from something rather than just dropping from the sky.

And then there was this other lady next to him, who actually had legitimate cyber tentacles coming from her backpack. No joints, just slithering like a goddamn snake. That there is Institute level of technology. Who are these people? Why is he here? How did he get here? Did he fall from the sky, too? Nah, he wasn't in a crater, but then again his stuff was scattered about...but he wasn't butt-naked like the young lady down there. This was so confusing...

Non perturbed by the naked, above-average looking young lady (The borderline existential questions kinda set his priorities above primal urges), he turned to the glasses-wearing woman, and asked "What exactly is going on here? None of this really makes sense, are you sure I ain't dead?"

[Kotomine_Rin]

Hyoudo Tenma

Tenma stared at the blonde woman, trying to comprehend the situation. She didn't have a big grasp, but from what she understood, she was either dreaming or that woman was some sort of genetically engineered monster.

For all she knew, she had been watching too much DBZ and it must have gotten over her head. Sure, she was a mad scientist, but she wasn't mad. But all of this, she could get. She could buy it. But there was one thing, just one thing that she couldn't get behind.

And then, the man spoke up in that weird armour of his.

"I know, Jerry. That's what I am trying to figure out. Don't worry though, you're not dead. Trust me, I'd know if you were." She said.

"More importantly, why is she naked?"

[Thedoctor]

Shinobu 

Shinobu was stretching after the fall she had endured, bending her back well backwards and pulling her arms behind her head. Her body was really sore after all, even if the damage healed the crash itself had hurt a lot. "

"More importantly, why is she naked?" She heard the woman say while contining to stretch, the stretching causing her assets to move around a bit.

"Clothes are such fickle thing, they burn far too fast don't they? It wasn't my intention to show off my body, however I have no real problems with it either. Clothing was originally created because the humans were ashamed of themselves and felt the need to hide. Oh sorry about that what I meant was yes I'm unfortunately naked right now due to circumstances beyond my control. But where are my manners? You may adress me as Shinobu" She said all of this in a single breath, no it was as if she didnt even breathe and just continued talking.

[MissingMandible]

Lone Wanderer:

Well, actually, clothes were in part invented so that we can survive in more inhospitable locations - human flesh can easily succumb to the elements if one was unprepared. But, really, Jeremy thought, that was neither here nor there. What was more interesting was that she said "The Humans."

"Are you saying that you aren't human, Shinobu?" He asked, interest piqued, "And aren't you cold?" Yeah, that should throw back the whole clothing deal back in her face.

Sure, the teenager would be a freak of genetics, but he doubts she isn't human. Neat party trick, though. Kinda like how ghouls actually heal in radiation.

[Kotomine_Rin]

Hyoudo Tenma

Tenma crossed her arms and shook her head in disagreement.

"No, she's saying she's a pervert." She said with a serious tone. "Probably some sick fetishist. How can someone like that call herself human!?"

[SINIB]

Sakura

Sakura chuckled with a smile. "That's less than I was expecting, honestly." She said with a sheepish grin. "Do you want anything here, Nee-san?" She asked as she accepted the bag.

[SINIB]

Irisviel

Irisviel laughed slightly at Medaka's display of power. She found Towuh's game to be surprisingly fun, albeit…somewhat reprehensible.

You'll do no such thing, I let you have your fun, you let me have mine!

Her wires continued to whirl, but they didn't move to attack Towuh. Instead, she began to speak.

"Well then, explain yourself! Explain everything, or else…well, bad things might just end up happening."

How was that? she asked him.
