Perhaps, still it does make him a little dull imo.

I could say something about how all your characters are both dull and jerks in response to that lovely statement, but that'd be ignoring the fact that I'm supposed to be taking a siesta from your stuff in general.

Like if Rin wanted a threesome with Lancer, she could talk him into doing it.  Of course he'd be a giant douche to Lancer the entire time, but it's what Rin wants.

You hinting at something there?

Though the trick is getting Lancer in the correct position. He is already chasing after two girls after all. While I have no doubt he'd be more than happy to have fun times with Rin, how will he juggle all that at once? Especially since one of the girls he's chasing is Rin's daughter. ^^"

[lantzblades]

My point was if Archer's only reaction to anyone but Rin is dismissal, snark and distrust then there's almost no reason to repeatedly interact with him because the result is the exact same.

[Elf]

Well, FSN's Archer's reaction to pretty much everyone is dismissal, snark, and criticism.

Plus wait until Dark Archer figures out that not only do Lancer and Tom go at each other like, well, dogs and cats, but also that Tom is going out with Lancer's Landlady that Lancer respects and trusts. Things will really spice up then, believe you me.

[lantzblades]

Well yeah elf. But this version seems immovable, like there's no give so even when people are honest there's no way to connect with him

[Cherry Lover]

Unless its something that would effect/hurt Rin.  Like if Sakura shows up and is in danger? D. Archer will save her despite the fact he hates Sakura with pretty much every fiber of his being.  However he'll save her because he knows that will make Rin happy.

How's he going to cope when they get back to Rin's universe...?

Well, not being someone who Rin is angry at or Sakura's son might help with that....

[The Man With All The Cute Boats]

From what I gather, he doesn't give a shit about most people, hates most of what's left and only likes a few from the remaining pool.

Basically even if you're honest at him, he doesn't give a shit about you, and talking to him for five minutes won't make that change in the least. So of course he's going to be dismissive of you.

[Elf]

How's he going to cope when they get back to Rin's universe...?

He's willing to make sacrifices for Rin.  So he'll just treat Sakura with indifference.  Depending on if he's corrupted or not, hell, either way, he's still going to taunt his younger self because its fun.

SPOILER is approved!

[Cherry Lover]

Wouldn't she be around Rin quite often, though? And at pretty much any happy occasion (well, barring really private ones)....

Rin spends most of her time in London, remember the HF true ending? He can put on a false face for Rin I'm betting.

Rin is Rin and Dark Archer's thought process makes him either a dick or senseless

Also, Lantz. Oh the hypocrisy. Either a dick or senseless sums up all your characters so so well.

The impression I got was that that was a pretty temporary thing, and that she intended to return to Fuyuki as soon as she could. And, plus, I can't imagine Archer would fit in too well at the Association, especially if he's still corrupted at that point. Let alone Ryoko, her corruption alone would be enough to get her slapped with a Sealing Designation if they're not careful.

[Arch-Magos Winter]

That wasn't the impression I got from the ending. Seriously, Mike, HF True isn't the BEST ENDING EVAR for Sakura and Rin - I can tell you that the two sisters would likely try and stay at arms length most of the time.

It's not the "best ending evar", no, but it's pretty clear that Rin wants to see Sakura more often, and vice-versa. She even fantasises about winning a magical competition so she can get the money to make the Jewelled Sword and then return home.

They're sisters, they spent their entire childhoods apart and they definitely want to rebuild their relationship. There is no indication anywhere in the game that they would try to stay at arms length, and you're the first person I've seen to claim that.

[Arch-Magos Winter]

I'm saying at the time period this Rin is from at least - she'll probably be considering what exactly to do about Sakura, and she does eventually decide to spend more time with her.

At first, she's probably not sure what to do about Sakura entirely - rebuild the relationship yes, but at this point getting too close could jeopardize it.
