Jeanne

Jeanne watched with surprise as the Apostle appeared really angry for some reason or another, she didn't expect for the brown haired woman to just rush over towards the naked woman and then throw her out of the window. While the blond had no trouble following the speed she had moved at with her eyes, the surprise at seeing a saint act like that caught her off guard.

However she didn't make a move to stop her as the naked woman and her pets just felt...well wrong was the only way she could put it. There was something awfully off putting about, something beneath the surface that you couldn't quite grasp.

Then the man with the gun put it away as he turned towards them and almost apologized for the mess that they had happened upon, she was almost convinced of his sincerity but there was something strange about this whole circumstance. She was just about to answer when she felt something forcefully drag her arm down, almost causing her to tip over. It could only be Shirou, that accursed liquid must have been too much for him.

It was all clear now.

With a incredible grace she twisted her body around, while going down on a knee, she managed to catch Shirou just before he tumbled onto the floor. She then wrapped one of his arms around her shoulder as she straightened him up again."Calm dawn Shirou nothing here is dangerous...except for that."

As she she had been busy catching Shirou, one of those things had stayed behind. It changed form and grew into some hideous monster that resembled a man. It's gaze was locked on the man who had a gun out earlier.

"I am God's holy monster. I drink from humanity."

With that the creature made itself scarce, going out the window to follow it's mistress most likely. She believed she could have followed it if not for the burden of supporting this drunken man.

God's holy monster, that drinks from humanity.

What could it mean by that. Are there even any monsters sanctified by The Lord himself? Could it be some bloodsucker, no that doesn't matter now. Cryptic messages will only serve to cloud you from the truth.
 
"Are the two of you unhurt? That thing looked dangerous." She asked them with a concerned expression on her face.

Lucy

She had been trying to get herself out of dumpster when a hand grabbed her chest. Lucy blinked, and then she spilled herself out of the dumpster and hit the ground with a pained grunt. Her Messengers all hopped back into her body as she struggled to stand up. That kinda hurt, she still had no clothes, and she smelled.

That woman was gonna wish that burglars had ransacked her house when her Messengers were done with it, but that was something for later. "Hi. Can you help me up?"


Oren

For the most part Oren had been content to keep her ears open and be pet by Breeze. Then Mordred started using some weird talking device and things sounded like they might get pretty heated, but it all turned out alright. She tightened her towel around her a bit more as she leaned against Breeze and soaked up her warmth. "sure! Is there anything you want to see me in, Breeze?"

Sure she'd talked about what clothes she would like to wear but the Fae could make herself look a bit more appealing at the cost of comfort. Just for a little while.

Mobb Bossu

Ow...

Mobb could feel the tears welling in his eyes, along ten thousand red hot needles throbbing in his head. When he heard her voice, he grit his teeth. How dare, how dare she do that to him??? That witch, he wouldn't forgive her!!

"Shut up! You... Why would you do such an evil thing to meeee! *sniff* Now I have no choice but to marry you." He rubbed his head to make the pain go away, but he could barely hold back his tears.

"Are you happy? Huh!? My life is ruined *sob* You... You jerk! Waaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

But just as he was about to flee, he stepped on a banana peel and flipped around, slipping away in a fearsome launch... Only to come back tumbling down on her. A man would've snapped his neck  from such a fall. Luckily her bosom, as lacking as it was, provided a suitable cushion to shield his face.

"Ow..." He whimpered, wallowing in his misery. Why was he so unlucky...?

[Kat]

Petra

Oh great, another person already stumbled into her apartment. One drunkard out, but unexpected visitors kept stumbling into the place. And one of the drunken oaf's familiars shifted into monstrous like form and spouted some cryptic stuff that didn't make any sense. Other than it reeked of demonic presence. But before she could take more direct action against that demonic familiar, it fled.

The man accompanying the Servant must have been a magus since she could feel a surge of magical energy coming from him before he tripped and stumbled. Well, nothing to worry about, she was virtually untouchable by any magus that could rear his head here. And he wasn't surely a Master, Ruler class Servant were Masterless after all.

"I just took justice into my hands. It's not like I shoot the burglar." She shrugged. After all, she merely ended up where she belonged. In a dumpster.

[Aiden]

Liam

That was wrong.

Whatever that was, whatever had just mocked Liam O'Mailey, was something very wrong. Had it read his mind? Was it some kind of demon? Was this a hallucination from some Nosferatu worm, or a random visitation from some kinda weird angel? Something in Liam panicked, and for the first time in decades he found himself hyperventilating for a moment, hand clutching his chest. This only ever happened when he was pretending to live and breathe like he'd been to keep Petra from figuring him out, but he thought he'd gotten over all that... psychowhatever nonsense years ago.

Calm. Down.

He took one more breath, and then forced himself to relax.

He turned his attention back to Petra and her uninvited guests. "Considerin' the mess she left for the little Miss here," he said with a nod to Petra, "I'd say the lady got off easy."

[Umbra of Chaos]

Lucy

This guy's complaining was beginning to grate on her ears real bad. He was getting real annoying and wasn't real helpful either. Then he fell on her and the weight hitting her made her gasp at the sudden pain. It also kind of pissed her off.

She grabbed the guy and shoved him to the side with one angry movement as she stumbled to her feet. A white rabbit doll pulled itself out of her back and lingered on the rooftops as she stood up and gave it some simple commands. Stay out of sight and set the apartment on fire once no one was there. Try to make it look as accidental as possible. Even if the fire has to be guided to Petra's home it doesn't matter so long as it burns.

Another chubbier one popped out as well with the order to trail the saint. Well, the first one anyways. The holiness of that second person was pretty noticeable too. Just an advance scout in case anything too bad happens.

Ugh. This entire thing had been a mess. She glowed white as she began to heal up developing bruises and slight fractures. Lucy was going to need a new outfit because that lady was too much of an aggressive bitch to think about her clothes when she was tossing her out a window.

With a few more careful steps she began to make her way to the nearest mall. Clothing was the biggest priority right now. Nothing else really mattered at the moment.

Mobb Boss

Mobb yelped as he was suddenly thrown aside without warning. Wiping the sweat and tears off his bruised face, he rose up and turned around to glare coldly at the lady, his body looming menacingly in an ominous yet as uncomfortable as anatomically dubious pose. He was upset, very darn upset.



Eyes flared with a frigid resolve, outrage and disgust. His bangs swirled and trashed wildly about like a mad octopus's tentacles and a purple otherworldly aura emerged from him, smothering him like flames. He had humored such foolishness for the last time.

"Don't worry lady. This isn't my job, it's just personal."

For a second his shadow seemed to contort and twist out of shape, its silouhette smiling eerily. And then he removed his clothes. All of them.

"Here, you look like you need them more than me." He grumbled, handing them over while looking away in embarassment., like a flustered boy afraid of peeking. It was like the aura and creepy shadow thing never happened.

"What the hell were you doing in a dumpster anyway? I hope you weren't trying to spy on me..."

[SINIB]

Misaka Mikoto

"Thanks!" Misaka yelled as she ran away from the woman holding the sword towards the nearest bathroom. "I'm sorry for the trouble! She yelled.

[Elf]

Gabriel

Gabriel emerged from he bathroom, toweling his hair off as he walked forward.  He watched the conversation between Emily and her roommate.  And it doesn't look like it's going well, Gabriel thought to himself as he watched.

Once it was over and Emily laid against the headboard, looking miserable.

Wordlessly, he crossed the rest of the distance to the bed and sat behind her.  He reached out and started to stroke her hair.


Forest

Bloody hell, even sitting down he's right about eyelevel, Forest thought as she clinched and opened her fists.  Swallowing, with him sitting down she realized she couldn't get behind him.  Which was going to make this feeding very interesting.

He held eye contact with her and she realized how gorgeous his eyes were before he politely looked away. 

"Thank you," she said in a soft voice before moving towards Gadreel.  His shoulders under her palms were warm and despite his earlier complaints about his lack of hygiene, he smelled real.  Wholly alive.  Vital.  Strong.

She felt her fangs start to lengthen at the sight of the pulse at his throat.  She bent forward, her own hair brushing against him, and moved to sink her fangs into Gadreel's throat.  Only to find that they didn't go in easily like they would normally with anyone human-ish.

A little, surprised sound was muffled by his throat before she reared back, mentally apologized to him, and then struck forward with her supernatural strength, biting hard.  Her head swam at the first swallow of sweet, rich warmth.  The dullness that had been building within her was almost instantly washed away by the second pull.  By the third she felt her toes curling in her boots as she gripped shoulders.

Shirou Emiya

Before he hit the floor, Shirou was caught by his blond savior. He looked up at her gratefully and pulled himself back up slowly, using her body to steady his own.

"If anything's dangerous it's that stuff you made us drink, Jeanne." He muttered to her under his breath. After his little quip, he looked up at the hyperventilating man with concern.

"Are—are you ok?" He asked him, unsteadily taking a step forward before deciding to continue leaning against Jeanne. Having her help support him seemed like a good idea right now.

[Kat]

Mordred

"Uhh, by the way, if I get a call again, it might be from my superiors. So don't be surprised if I will have to call off whole outing for the assignment." The changeling warned in advance. She also made sure to block Emily's phone number so that she was more confident she would get an actually important call.

Maybe she shouldn't buy anything extravagant or impractical for herself today. Preferably clothes that wouldn't out of place in combat.

"And if I don't get a call today, maybe I should fight you. I really need every bit of practice I can get."

[Aiden]

Auspicious Breeze

Oh, Oren wanted her to decide what she should wear? That made Breeze pretty excited; she couldn't keep the smile off her face while she tingled with it. "Well, I think Oren would look even prettier in something silky..."

She wasn't quite sure what they had in this world, though. She would just have to see when they got there. Oh, and Mordred too? That was another thought. "Well, don't worry; I'll help out with that if I can!" she said, nodding to Mordred.

[Umbra of Chaos]

Lucy

Unfortunately, Lucy saw none of the theatrics and only turned around once her Messenger had informed her that he was just taking off his clothes. She turned around with a single questioning brow at his naked form. Lucy gratefully took his shirt and pants and gave the guy a slight smile.

After putting on the clothes she seemed to undergo a total personality shift. Actually no, it was more like her bad mood had melted away. Gratefulness surged up from her and was easily seen on her face. "Sorry about that. I got thrown in there from some lady's apartment after I broke in and asked for her help. Didn't know she was such a petty person that she'd toss me out her window. Anyways, thanks for the clothes. I'm Lucy! What's your name?"


Oren

The Fae nodded at Breeze's suggestion and nodded again at her declaration of aid for Mordred. She didn't disagree with that kind of clothing, but most importantly Mordred seemed like a good person. Also they were sharing Breeze. If she died it might make Breeze sad, so Mordred had to live. "Yeah, I can help, and Breeze is really, really good at fighting. We'd be really good at helping you with anything!"

[Kotomine_Rin]

Mobb Boss

"Huh, okay. You can call me Mobb, I guess." He mumbled with a blush. Honestly, he kinda spaced out so half of her words didn't even register. He wasn't about to admit it though!

His arm dangled forward, covering his privates as he posed. The cool air blew over him, which felt good. However, he minded not to catch a chill, otherwise he wouldn't be able to fulfill his mission. With that in mind, he stumbled three steps forward forward in a bizarre gait, only to quickly dissappear behind the dumpster. In only a few seconds, he reappeared out of the alley behind Lucy with a new makeover.

A purple and golden high collar shirt zipping only up to his chest, his shoulders covered by a set trapezoidal net patterns. His pants were black, diamond spiderweb nets going down along his thighs until the knee, only to follow with spiral patterns of golden bells down his pants. The newly fancy dressed Mobb smiled proudly, as if filled by a new confidence, and waved his head as if to urge her on to follow.

"Come! I'm not enough of a scumbag to leave my wife alone in the cold. Want coffee?"

[Umbra of Chaos]

Lucy

He got dressed up pretty quick. Lucy was somewhat impressed. It was all overt and eye-catching. It kind of reminded her of her own choice in clothing a few decades ago. Good times. But back to business. Lucy had a misconception to correct.

She shook her head at his proposal. "Nah, don't really care that much for coffee. And I'm not your wife. I'm already married. Unless you considering molesting someone something worth getting married about we're just two people. There are no responsibilities or duties to each other at all."
