Cross Effects 3.0 - June 23, 2016—April 02, 2018

[Thedoctor]

Kuro

Just like she thought, the boy had been a bait and he vanished almost as fast as he had appeared once none of them approached. Then she heard it, the mocking voice of whomever had done it coming from behind her. As she turned around there was no one there yet she kept hearing the voice from behind her. Kuro ignored the threats being thrown at them as she was busy trying to figure out how it worked.

I might as well try it.

Without looking or turning around, the young girl sent a sword flying backwards in the direction the voice was coming from.

Hazama

The green snake smiled and laughed nervously, a short giggle that seemed more bitter than anything else. Rubbing his temple as if absorbed in thought, he finally spoke.

"My, my. It sounds like this place is in pretty dire straits. Oh well, I guess I'll have to make do. Do you have any work, Jeremy?"

[Aiden]

Auspicious Breeze

She took the escape route Sakura offered her. "Ohh! Huh, I wonder what 'brocli' is...?" Breeze asked, squinting her eyes at the menu while she tried to read that one. "Well, I'm sure it's good! I'll go with the steak and all this then."

Aww, Mordred didn't like spicy? "I dunno, spicy can be really fun. Then again, they spice everything where I'm from; it's how you keep food from going bad." Fridges were neat.

Muramasa Katase

"Now now, cousin," Katase said with a chiding smile while her puppet gave 'Minato' a gentle tap on the shoulder with the bottom of her umbrella handle. "No need to bombard the girl with questions. If there were anything truly dangerous lurking about, I am sure a young lady like this would have volunteered the information already."

This act was actually a little amusing. She was able to push at her wielder's boundaries and see how far this cover of her's would allow her to respond. She got so... irritable when pressed that way.

[Aiden]

Liam

"Just thinkin' ahead, Petra. Always good to have a plan to wander off from." That being said, he took a look ahead to the pillars squeezed up between the buildings. She was probably struggling to see the details, but Liam could see perfect in the dark. And twice as far as a living stiff anyway. "Can't say I know where that one's from. Kinda Roman, maybe?"

[yinsukin]

Medaka Kurokami

This was bad.  Just before she managed to deliver the strike Ron appeared and grabbed her by the hair.  He managed to grab Rikuyo by the hair as well but it was not as effective, as she completely ignored him.  " Ron we cant let them fight here!  People will get hurt!"  She said, visibly annoyed that she was stopped.  Just then, Rikuyo used her new monkey tail to knock them away.  Even with Ron holding her by the hair, she planted her feet, grabbed the tail and attempted to throw her out one of the windows in the building. The jerking from the momentum would be painful if Ron held onto her throughout the movement.  But it would be worth it if it could be taken outside.

[Aiden]

Ron

"That's why I'm trying to stop you both!" Besides, there wasn't anyone actually in the shop anymore besides the four of them, but there were people out on the streets. He was about to remind the young vampire about this before the blonde just... argh, he wanted to do something to her for that and he wasn't sure what.

He had to let go of both girls' hair when Rikuyo's tail knocked him away. He didn't go far, fortunately, but that was enough to make Ron's brain switch gears. Now it wasn't about safety or sex, but about the challenge. The werewolf did nothing to stop Medaka, but instead growled at the blonde vampire munching on her doughnuts. Smug, sexy bitch.

"Think we're just getting started."

Then he tried to steal one of her doughnuts. He wasn't looking at them, though, he was looking at her. Like he knew it was going to set her off if he did this, and was waiting for her to try to stop him. Not a care in the world about being big, hairy and naked. He was just going to provoke something other than boredom out of her.

[yinsukin]

Relius Clover

The scientist made a note to check the radio more often, or at least set up a system to monitor reports. This time, as he spoke, he maintained eye contact properly.  "Unfortunatly, I haven't been listening to the radio much.  I have been immersed in work you see.  As for these explosives, I don't plan on holding these for long.  As I mentioned before, I did have my own plans before you proposed your own.  However, I think yours may be more... tactful, especially if done in combination with my own.  Now, if we are going for a political conquest, what chores would you have me attend too?"  He said, emphasizing his inquisitive tone.

[Elf]

Forest

Forest felt her hips quirk up as the dark man flashed his fangs and showed a gleaming metal badge before wondering it was gold.

The Rent-A-Cop warned him that it might be something like pyrite or the like, which made the urge to chuckle even more. 

Forest herself loved gemstones, but her best friend crafted magical jewelry and was quite exceptional at it.  Wynn also wasn't afraid of sharing information, especially if the person in question was wrong.  So, over the years of being with Wynn, and her own mineral collection, Forest knew quite a bit about gemstones and precious metals.

"Gold wouldn't be used for a badge; it would be a poor choice for it anyway.  It's expensive, soft, and bloody malleable.  The only things it really has going for it is the fact it doesn't tarnish and it conducts electricity really well. It might be brass or some sort of other alloy.  Or plastic spray painted with metallic gold plate," Forest said with a shrug before lifting an eyebrow at the guard.

"Chances are it's not pyrite though."

[Thedoctor]

Shinobu

Shinobu kept eating as both Medaka and Ron were flung away by Rikuyo's swipe. The werewolf recovered quickly but turned his attention towards her instead, growling at her as he moved closer. That he was challeneging her was quite clear, he wouldn't stop looking even as he tried to steal one of her delicous doughnuts.

Like lightning she grabbed hold of his wrist just as he was about to steal one of them and pulled him towards her.  Her soft breasts touching his chest while she was looking slightly up to his eyes. Her gaze met his challange with an air of arrogance, speaking of how she didn't believe the werewolf could even reach her shadow.

"You will have to try harder then that, little dog."

[Thedoctor]

Archer

"Oh really, I thought you were really tight with the money. What happened to my jewels are so expensive I can't afford anything else? No wait I get it, you're borrowing from your sister." The white haired man teased her like usually.

"It's good that hasn't changed Rin." He followed up, sounding more serious this time.

[Elf]

Rin

Rin blushed at Archer's comment and said, "Well . . . as much somethings change others stay more the same.  Besides, it's not like anyone other than Ayako asks for suggestions about stuff that's actually fun to read."

Then she grinned and chuckled. "Well. Liseth being able to pull out perfect gems from her pocket helps quite a bit as well."

[Thedoctor]

Jeanne

She tried her best to ignor his attempt at showing off. "Let's see when I actually get it, making me wait so long, how cruel of you." She jokingly complained as she observed him finally make the tea.

[Thedoctor]

Archer

Archer grinned as he saw Rin's reaction. "Did you actually try and see if those gems were genuine? It might have been illusions. Maybe you could come closer and show me them if you still have any left." It could have been that Liseth opened portals and pulled out fake gems from some storage, that would be quite useful if you were trying to trick someone.

[Elf]

Rin

"Oh, by now I should be able to tell a real gem from a fake, but it allowed me to store mana," Rin said as she scooted closer to him.

She leaned to the side to pull the ruby she had just charged at the bar out of her pocket with a smile.  "Please don't lose it.  I already poured my precious blood on to it."  She displayed the ruby that was pretty much flawless to the Servant.

[Kotomine_Rin]

Methuselah

The dark god gave them a dumb puzzled look and raised an eyebrow. Half of what they said made no sense, and the other half he didn't pay attention to. Why were they talking about rocks now? He really didn't get humans at times. He hoped they weren't making fun of him or something, that would be just rude.

"What? No, no, no, no, no. You both got it wrong. This isn't some scrap or gold nugget i found lying in a gutter, this is a symbol! A symbol of authority, privilege and responsibility." He said, holding out his arms as if to be prevented from further bombardment of mineral and economy involving rabble he didn't understand or care terribly about.

With a deep sigh, he puffed his chest proudly and brought the badge closer to the officer's attention, carefully pointing at each letter so the message wouldn't be lost to him this time.

"I followed your advice mister White, so guess what? I got a job! See?"
