Cross Effects 3.0 - October 21, 2015—June 23, 2016

[Kotomine_Rin]

Darcy Hugh

Darcy scuffed haughtily, as if looking down on the sad little cowboy wannabe. This is not a halloween fair missy, so go home and play with your toys.

"Bitch please, I'm the original hell's angel. Unless you are trying to tell me you're scared." He said with smug confidence. Then, he slapped both on the back and grinned, not even trying to hide his excitement.

"I hope you're all ready, cause we are going commando."

[Elf]

Gabriel

"She doesn't pretend that she's not a murderer, but then she comes from a place and time where death is just an other aspect of life," Gabriel said with a shrug, "That's not the problem.  The problem is she's going to either completely deaden herself or explode at the worse possible moment."

He automatically leaned into Lumen's touch and said, "Since I've arrived in the Nexus, the Shadows are only available to me here. I am just trying to find a point of reference, and sometimes doing that in the Shadows is troublesome."

[Umbra of Chaos]

Oren

The dark haired girl ignored Darcy's remark and instead turned her head to look at Annabeth. Oren pressed her face against the other girl's and began to nuzzle it. "Yeah, you did good too Anna! Most people fall off when I'm slow. They almost all break something if I go really fast, but I knew you could do it."


Lumen

Lumen toyed with the information she had been given and quickly decided it was completely irrelevant. Whoever he was talking about would not be her concern in the slightest unless she showed up. So instead of dwelling on it she wrapped one arm around Gabriel's midsection with one arm before tossing him over her shoulder. He seemed strange enough so most of the normal things Lumen would usually do could be discarded. "Just try to hold on tight. Falling would probably be detrimental to your health."

Next she leaped up much higher than anyone even with her strength and began to stand on the air with one leg. Taking a moment to balance herself with the extra weight on one side she leaped again and again until the pair could see a good deal of the city from their place in the sky. "So, anything in particular stand out to you? I can go a lot higher but breathing might get difficult."

[Elf]

Gabriel

Gabriel frowned as he looked down at the city.  He kept his arms around Lumen as he felt the cold air whip through his hair and coat.  He made a mental note to bug Godmother for a warmer coat as soon as he found her.  And lectured her.

There were a few places of interest, but what he really needed was rest or sex.  Or a combination there of.  Not that he'd confess that to his unique companion. 

"I think this will do, I just need to figure out where to head," he said with a frown.


Rin

Rin was brushing her hair out when she heard a knock that was loud enough to make her jump.  Then she heard a quieter one and a female voice ringing out, "Rin, are you there? I find myself in need of company and a shower, and you seem more than fit to provide both for me."

"Well, I'm taking a shower and really not in the mood for company right now," Rin said, wondering if she was going to have to put a boundary field around the washroom.

[SINIB]

Rachel

Rachel nodded. The woman was right. There was no denying it. "My name is Rachel Alucard, head of the Alucard family." She greeted her sincerely. "I pray you're more interesting than the last vampire I met."

[SINIB]

Irisviel

Irisviel applauded Towuh. Normally she would have been surprised, but there was nothing that Towuh could do that could truly surprise her.

"You've outdone yourself, you know? I have to say, this is even cooler than the video game." She congratulated him with a smile. "Well done."

[Kotomine_Rin]

Tohuw Balagan

"Your praise is too good for me. Thank you." The demon said humbly, still smiling as he brought the phone forward to take the entirety of the city in one big picture. Say cheese he said while saying cheese before taking the picture.

Everything and everyone, from the slums at the outskirts to the great corporate buildings were copied pixel by pixel, a perfect shot. And thus the demon finally completed his task. This would be better, far better than any map. The BEST map!

Now then, there was just one thing to take care of. His master wasn't surprised... unacceptable. He would not have it, never! For a second, the demon turned to his master and smiled slyly. Then, he spoke cheerfully, more than ever.

"Phew! Well, that's taken care of. Now then, good bye~!"

And without a warning, before even letting her realize the gravity of her situation, the demon let go of her. Needless to say, a fall like this would kill anyone, no matter how tough! Bye bye Irisviel, it was fun!

[SINIB]

Irisviel

Irisviel began to fall. She didn't like falling. Maybe saying he couldn't surprise her had been a mistake. Regardless, even this didn't really shock her. He was a demon after all. And he'd signed a contract with her to protect her and serve her faithfully. She was fairly sure he would save her before she hit the ground.

But just in case, she cast a spell. A spell that slowed her fall tremendously, making her float down to the ground slowly. She looked up to him and stuck her tongue out.

[Kotomine_Rin]

Tohuw Balagan

The demon showed a tad bit of irritation. On one hand, he had to admire his master's collected demeanour and resourcefulness. On the other, this kind of felt like she was one-upping him. He hated that, so he wouldn't have it either! Perhaps he'd teach her some humility.

The demon looked down with an almost bored expression and snorted. With a snap of his fingers the girl began to accelerate once more, her magic bypassed by the simple fact she was, for whatever reason, gaining more and more speed by the second.

But hopefully it would scare her off.

[Thedoctor]

Shinobu

The part about the vampire caught Shinoub's interest so she decided to share the tale of the unfortunate encounter she had earlier. "I myself had the misfortune of encountering a highly arrogant vampire, she kept spouting pseudo intellectual nonsense yet I could not help but find her lack of wit wanting." Shinobu paused here before smiling and continuing. "You on the other hand, forgive me for comparing but it is like ascending from depths of Hell to find Paradise awaiting you." Shinobu looked down at her almost empty cup and realized a grave error she had made. "Excuse me for not asking earlier but is there anything you would like to drink?"

[Panda]

Annabeth

Once more, the Hunter's hand twitched around that imaginary gun handle, almost longingly as the priest's hands came down on their backs. The Hunter's annoyance cooled somewhat as Oren nuzzled up against her, however, Annabeth allowing a muted sigh before Oren said her piece.

"Thanks," Annabeth said with a chuckle, "Though I must admit to being a little worried about our friend here if that's the case."

[MissingMandible]

Corporal Mathew Blackburn:

Well, the young lady who was wearing the fancy garbs is now with another blondy. They seemed to be hitting it off, having a nice chat. Oh, and they were also vampires, just like how Seras was said to be.

Time to get out.

Sure, Seras was peaceful, and in fact saved his skin, but Mathew wasn't too keen on sticking around others who had those abilities. Too bad the two blondes were between him and the door...

The Dragoon quietly stood up from his seat and tried to make his way past the pair. However, though he loved his carapace armor, there were two things going against him. First, the idea being inconspicuous was thrown out the airlock: the actual gold trimming, the glowing eye pieces, the battery pack with the volleygun slung to the side made him stick out in a crowd. Second, it did not have the joint mobility that Flak Armor grants, translating to his boot smacking against the one called Shinobu's chair.

Well, shit.

[Thedoctor]

Shinobu

Just as she had posed her question to Rachel someone bumped into her chair, the force of it moved the chair just enough to make Shinobu who had been shifting around in the chair in that moment fall down with a suprised cry escaping her. She landed right at the strangers feet. Shinobu looked up to see who had bumped into her and saw a fit man wearing what appeared to be some sort of metal armor all over his body. "W-who do you think you are, bumping into me like that?" she cried out embarrased at the situation.   

[SINIB]

Irisviel

"Tch." Irisviel was getting irritated. Why did he have to be so childish?

"Toe, why don't we stop this? It's really important I go see my friend, and this is... A bit scary."

Of course, she knew he couldn't hurt her, or cause her to be hurt. But he clearly wanted to scare her, or else he wouldn't go to such lengths.

[SINIB]

Sakura

Sakura took a deep, deep breath She clearly couldn't hide it from Rider. "Where can I start I'm going to be attacked I can feel it It's scary something's trying to eat me it's not real it can't be real there's no dog here but it feels really really real you can't help nobody helps not even Faust could help why did he die why did he die Rider?"
