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

[Elf]

Rin

Rin stared at the magical creation that Lorenzo had put into her hand.  It was lovely, a nice bit of magecraft, and had it been Winter and not Summer, something welcome.  Wait, he's a skeleton . . . Why?  I mean he has nothing that would . . .

“Are you seriously going to hit on Rin right after I told you she is my date!”

Rin blinked as Joe, normal, boring Joe, kicked Lorenzo in the face, sending him reeling.  His bold, brave action made Rin's heart pound and eyes widen.  It was oddly touching, and Rin stepped forward to the skeleton.  "We're on a lake.  If he tried anything I could easily make him regret it," Rin said, pointing at Lorenzo.  "And we're not 'lovebirds' we just met about half an hour ago!  So get that ridiculous idea out of your head before I show you that I can do more than keep you from catching the boat on fire."

[Aiden]

Michael

Thankfully, this time Newface actually listened. Unfortunately, he seemed to have decided that 'saving' the cute sword girl took was a priority which ignored reason. While Michael couldn't quite bring himself to fault the fool for this reasoning, he didn't quite feel like letting the sword girl go quite yet either. With that in mind, the immortal followed along the rooftops, opting to conceal his presence once more, just in case.

As expected, the armored girl took issue with being carried, starting to attack Newface. Frowning slightly, the immortal took one step to cross the distance between where he was an a spot parallel to the would-be falling girl, reaching out with his staff to catch her and pull her up onto the rooftop on her feet, taking care to slow her fall before doing so. Michael soon found himself having to put effort into keeping the smile from his face, his eyes alight with a spark of curiosity and amusement all the same.

Well this just confirms my suspicions, but it feels nice all the same, at least for the moment.

"Hello there, to whom am I speaking?" Michael started, "The sword, or the wielder? Or are they one and the same?"

Muramasa Katase

The Muramasa was released, and was likely to need to do some repairs to her puppet's legs and spine upon impact with the ground. This was mostly irrelevant, or would have been if not for the high likelihood of being consumed by a dragon that could swim through the ground. The delay would have left her vulnerable. It was thus with some measure of appreciation that she was retrieved by what may have been the least irritating of the three interlopers she had encountered so far within the past ten minutes.

Her puppet adjusted her footing for a moment, and began to pace around so there were options other than falling to escape if her so-called 'savior' decided to attack and she somehow could not handle him. "You are quite impolite, asking who I am before even introducing yourself."

give me a reason to kill you

[yinsukin]

Joe

The kick did not hit its target.  Instead the zombie thing did some crazy sidestep type thing and backed up a bit.  If he actually wanted to hurt him, it would have been over by now.  Either way, that moment of rage and instinct was over.

Joe looked at down at his body for a second, as if he had switched bodies with someone else  Wow ive never been that angry before in my life.  Then again, ive never met anyone this in your face before.

He came back into awareness just long enough to catch the pirates compliment.  His mind screamed at him.  Oh now he is hitting on me.  Fuck this guy!

He looked at Rin and sighed.  Yeah I guess its only natural she has that reaction.  Still, she didn’t deny that we are on a date…  Then, he looked at her with uneasy determination.  “Even if this guy is a nutjob, im kinda interested in the treasure.  I never really confirmed it but I heard plenty of stories on the net of people finding valuable stuff in the waters.  We might find a relic or something cool.”

[Umbra of Chaos]

Liseth

Just a bit miserable Liseth followed her girlfriend around as she browsed forums on her phone. She was wearing her usual clothes now, even if she could have gotten others. It was just natural for her. It still didn't make her excited about having to go outside. "Why didn't we just eat inside again? Eating inside sounded like a really good idea. Like top tier. We could have eaten a five star meal and everything."

[Aiden]

Lucy

"It's such an unkind light, isn't' it?" Lucy's was speaking almost absentmindedly amidst the light and howling. As it finally died down she placed her hand on his cheek and let light come forth again. A soothing shine that wiped away his injuries and left him whole in body if not spirit.

Then she reached out and grabbed his hand. "I'm much nicer. But I guess we should focus on more important things first, right? Let's go get you some clothes." That's when Lucy started to pull him towards the exit to the alley.

Gadreel

He actually trembled as he returned to his feet and clutched at her hand just a touch uncomfortably. He felt diminished by the experience. He did not resist her guidance, however. "Your definition of nice is... dubious. But by yes, seeing as you have commandeered my coat I do require other garments. Lead on then, young Lucy."

[SINIB]

Jeanne

The hands on her head grew more desperate as they pushed her down on the hard dick that was completely filling her mouth. She let them with a smile on her face as she tried to maintain eye contact with Shirou. His hard dick was pushing against her throat, demanding entry to that tight spot. Jeanne felt the head push past the entrance and she found herself fighting her own gagging reflex as her throat convulsed around him.

Shirou

More. Shirou thought as she enveloped more and more of his dick. He was almost there. Just a bit more. And then, with a final push, she took his entire length, all the way to the base.

And it felt amazing. The tightness of her throat was out of this world. It was almost enough to make him cum on its own. Shirou steadied himself, however.

Not yet. He thought to himself. He stroked her head before his hand moved down to her throat, and gently rubbed the length of it once. Then, finally he let her go, allowing her to get started and preform her magic.

[SINIB]

Mordred

Even if the incident had lasted only for few moments, there was a good reason to be concerned. She wasn't neither as carefree as the two nor she could just ignore that as an Enforcer. So, she called her friend in the police to ask her if she knows anything about the possible cause of that. Mordred excused herself and went outdoors to phone Noel.

Auspicious Breeze

She glanced in Mordred's direction when she noticed her getting up. The former gladiator's lips pursed together when she saw her leaving to do something outside, and for a moment she worried. Then the airplane came and she was going "aaahhh" and oh gods that was delicious.

"Haaah, at least this city has something delicious like this going for it~." The smile would not end at this rate! But her mind kept going back to Mordred there. "Ehh... hey, Sakura. Do you think Mordred is upset at me?"

IRON=SAKURA

Sakura shrugged at Breeze. "I don't see why she would be, unless you did something to annoy her before I met you two." Sakura answered honestly. "Open wide~" Sakura said as a heaping spoonful of ice cream came hurtling at Breeze at frightening speeds.

[Thedoctor]

Shinobu

The younger vampire fell on her butt as she knocked her over and then giggled at it. Shinbou looked on with amusement as Medaka then changed into the cat costume comically fast. "Woof woof Dougnuts now woof" The elder vampire threatened the younger one while raising one of now soft paws in the air, clearly some attempt at being menacing gone horribly wrong.

[Panda]

Emily

Resisting the urge to sigh at Liseth's response, Emily stopped and turned around, leveling her most effective iteration of the 'concerned girlfriend who wants the best for you' frown and stare combo at the taller girl. The height difference probably took some of the edge off, but Emily made her best attempt all the same.

"Liseth," she started, her tone resolute, "The worst study binges I've gone through in medschool don't even touch what you've been doing. I'm sorry to be pulling you out like this, but as a doctor I must say that you needed to go outside."

Allowing a sigh at last, the changeling's countenance softened as she ran a hand through her hair, taking a moment to collect herself.

"Besides, it's a wonderful day today," Emily continued with a winsome little smile, leaning into Liseth's side a little and taking her free hand in both of hers, "And even if the food isn't as good as what we could've made for ourselves, it would be nice to spend some time together out of the house. It's been a while since the last time we've done something like that, you know."

Auspicious Breeze

Before she could say anything else she got a mouth full of delicious cream. "Aahnn! Mmm..." If Sakura wasn't careful she'd end up hitting Breeze's teeth or something! Ah well, she'd just reinforce her teeth so they didn't get knocked out if that happened. No big deal, really.

She smiled around the spoon and pulled her head back. "Well, I know she doesn't get along that great with my other girlfriend - they know about each, don't worry - but she's never said anything about being bothered by it. Am I being dumb?"

Then Breeze shook her head. "Ahh, sorry! I shouldn't bother you with my problems right now. Forget I said anything."

IRON=SAKURA

Sakura shook her head a flicked Breeze on the forehead. "Well of course she's annoyed about that! She might be hiding it from you, but any girl would be upset at having to share her man or woman, Breeze!" Sakura said as she began to berate her. "It's just common sense!" She wagged the spoon at her friend. "You need to make a choice!"

Auspicious Breeze

Ah! That was a real hard flick! Breeze rubbed at her head with a pout while her eyes followed the deadly spoon around. "It's not how it worked back home..." she mumbled, her face all red and warm from embarrassment now. "I guess I just thought it was okay as long as everyone knew and said it was fine. It doesn't work like that here, huh?"

[yinsukin]

Medaka

"Meeeew!"  The young vampire's hips went flying into the air, mimicking a cat going on the defensive.  Then, still on all fours, she jumped atop one of the racks that hold the coats.  Gracefully perched on the metal pipe that holds the coat hangers, she let loose another cry.

"MEOW!"  She screeched in a poor cat imitation.

She was really starting to get into this.

[Kotomine_Rin]

Lorenzo Remei

If skeletons could blink, Lorenzo would've done so flatly and paused. Instead he just paused, standing there like he'd just been sucker punched before bursting into laughter.

"BWAHAHAHAHAHA!  Suuuuuuuuuure! I see, I see!" He roared all of a sudden. Then, he walked up to the dumb looking guy and put a hand on his shoulder.

"Well, that makes two of us. Yknow, I especially like you. You've gut GUTS, if I wasn't in this ship I could see you being a fine captain. If you ask nicely I won't mind sharing 50-50." He chuckled before giving him a hand.

"35 gold bars, 45 rubies, 35 sapphires, 11 diamonds, 30 0000 silver coins and enough guns and weapons to build a small army, or sell one. You game?"

[Kotomine_Rin]

Methuselah

E-eh? She was... fine? Odd. Well, that made things easier, the god of darkness descended on ground level where the dragon had once been and touched the floor with the palm of his pitch black hand.

With a few demonic incantations, the darkness inside the earth began to shift as a tree made of thousands of impossibly thin branches of shadow began to spread and sink down the earth. They were barely able to scratch an ant, but they permeated and shifted through the ground by slipping around minuscule holes and gaps.

Soon, he had about 300 meters covered beneath him. They were weak, brittle things that wouldn't be able to do much, but they would react according to the dragon's underground movements/ Because there was no light underground, the shadow members would not disappear easily, and even the slightest of movements or vibrations would be enough to pinpoint her location after a while.
