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

[Elf]

Rin

Rin snorted at the pirate's story and shook her head.  If some idiot hadn't blown the engine to the bottom of the lake I could have restored it, she thought with a sigh as she looked at the shore.  The sun beat down uncomfortably overhead, reminding Rin that her sunscreen would have worn off at this point.  Which meant she was going to most likely be sunburned.

She shrugged and said, "Not bad."

[Kotomine_Rin]

Lorenzo Remei

Lorenzo roared in laughter. "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA, FOOL!! Of course I wouldn't do such a thing, but you see, I did not expect the ship to be boobytrapped. Luckily, by acting boldly I managed to get out of that pinch."

He turned to Rin and flexed cooly, grinning with a friendly chuckle.

"I know, I'm the best. Even the seas themselves prove no match for I, the great Lorenzo!! This is my era, you only need to ask and I shall make you queen of this world."

[Umbra of Chaos]

Liseth

If Liseth cared about wine at all she might have recognized its value. But she didn't. She didn't drink alcohol at all except for that one time with Emily but that would never happen again. However, instead of reminiscing she just looked up at the man and stated, "You know, you seem like a very flat kind of person."

Then she just looked back at Emily. "I don't really feel like eating here anymore. Wanna try a bowl at that ramen place from the clockwork district? If we're gonna go somewhere a place like that might be nicer than going to some average place, I guess."

Joe

Joe's eyebrows rose in shock as he watched Rin's reaction.  Oh shit she's actually impressed!

It was pretty weird to see a skeleton flex his non existent muscles.  Joe shot the pirate a glare.  Then, it transformed into an arrogant grin.  "Pfft please! The seas would have killed your sorry ass if we hadn't been out on our date."  He retorted, eyeing the skeleton.

[SINIB]

Shirou

A look of confusion came over Shirou's face at both the girl's question, a feeling that was only confused by the fact that the sheet with a drawn-on face on the girl's head was somehow mimicking her movement, as if it were alive. The only "Rider" he knew of was the one who had been Shinji's stolen servant in the Grail War. And, whilst he trusted Sakura when she said the servant was not as bad as he had once thought, the fact remained that she was dead. So, how could this girl know her?

"I have met her", he said, obviously confused, "but she died several years ago, before I arrived here."

Oka Kurosawa

"Hahaha, no way, I saw her just last week." Oka said, now relaxed. Whomever this guy was, he didn't seem like a bad guy. "You sure you didn't hit your head recently?" She asked, peering at the older man. He didn't look so well. His hair looked kinda fucked up, like he was aging too fast. "You should go see a doctor."

[Elf]

Rin

Rin eyed Lorenzo and asked, "Why would I want to be Queen though?  Being Queen would mean I wouldn't be able to follow my own dreams and seek my own happiness.  I would have power, but I would have to see to the needs of my subjects before my own.  Which, I have no desire of doing.  I'm fine with seeking my own hopes and dreams and caring for those of my choosing, not some nameless mass I'll ever meet."

[Kotomine_Rin]

Lorenzo Remei

Lorenzo paused for a second, listened, and let their words sink in. Then, he laughed.

"Bwahahahahaha! Well said, that was well said! You know what you want, I respect that." He said jovially, pure heartfelt honesty in each and every word. Then, he turned to Joe and gave him a funny, yet stern look. Like he'd just said something real stupid.

"Kill me? Now that's a bad joke right there buddy. Even if I could be killed, I have more than one life on my shoulders now. A captain needs to be hungrier, happier, greedier than anyone else, so he can shoulder his friends dreams in a sailing flag banner. If you think water is all it takes to end a true pirate's ambition, you are full of shit! MEN'S DREAMS... NEVER END!!"

[yinsukin]

Joe

For whatever reason, Joe's only response was a tired sigh to the pirate's banter.  "Whatever," he said, his voice a bit defeated, like he had ran a marathon but didn't finish.  Then, he turned to Rin.  "Your turn.  Got any interesting stories?"  asked with a genuine curiosity in his voice.

[Elf]

Rin

Rin looked at Lorry and smiled.  The smile didn't reach her eyes and said, "A man's dreams may never end but they can be broken, trampled, and corrupted."

She looked at Joe, rubbed the back of her neck and chuckled.  "Oh, I have some good stories, but I'm not a good story teller.  However, I can tell you a story about a vampire who wanted to end the world by dropping the moon onto it, and the wizard who stopped him from doing so.  If you want."

[SINIB]

Shirou

A look of confusion came over Shirou's face at both the girl's question, a feeling that was only confused by the fact that the sheet with a drawn-on face on the girl's head was somehow mimicking her movement, as if it were alive. The only "Rider" he knew of was the one who had been Shinji's stolen servant in the Grail War. And, whilst he trusted Sakura when she said the servant was not as bad as he had once thought, the fact remained that she was dead. So, how could this girl know her?

"I have met her", he said, obviously confused, "but she died several years ago, before I arrived here."


Rider

Rider, listening in to the conversation between Ron and her master as she awaited her food, felt somewhat offended by his failure to mention the full range of delicious ingredients. Knowing that Sakura had previously expressed a liking for the food of her homeland, and that Garlic sauce was a common ingredient on kebabs sold in Japan, she decided to add some extra suggestions.

"You could also add some olives, or cheese. The feta cheese should be especially nice with pita bread. They also have garlic sauce, if you want that instead of the options Ron gave", she added with a smile.

Sakura Matou

"Alright, I'll have the chicken!" Sakura exclaimed as she spun around to face the cashier.

"Chicken what, miss? We have many different kinds." The cashier replied would much emotion, as if this was a commonplace occurrence he was tired of.

Sakura turned back and looked at Ron expectantly, waiting for him to answer for her.

Ron

Is this girl legit? Well, nothing for it then. He was gonna have to make a more detailed suggestion for her. "What else can you put on the Chicken Kebab on Pita?" The werewolf asked the man. Who liked olives and chicken together, really?

"Lettuce, tomato, onion, and we also have hot sauce, barbeque, and white sauce."

Ron turned back to Sakura. "That sound about right, then?"

Sakura Matou

Sakura flashed a smile at Rider and Ron and then turned back to the cashier to order. "I'll have the lettuce, tomato, onion with the barbeque sauce. Hot sauce hasn't been agreeing with me lately."

The cashier nodded politely. "Would you like anything else with your meals?"

Sakura nodded back at her. "Yup, we'd like three drinks. That should be enough for now, right?" She asked the two people next to her.

[SINIB]

Erica

The Spirit Vessel nodded in mutual recognition. For Noel's sake. "It was no trouble. But have things gone well for you since then? I recall that your employment then was to the law enforcement of this city. I do not doubt your ability but such a thing can be strenuous over time." Her words tasted of concern.

Her eyes flickered to Noel's cart and quickly took note of the items within.

Noel Vermillion

"Socially awkward as ever, I see." Noel said with a small laugh. The way she spoke just felt kinda off. "I've been hanging in there, but we've been super busy as of late. How about you?"

[SINIB]

Jeanne

She kept up her good work as she eventually got used to his size, she still gagged though when she got careless and went down to far. In response to his praise she started speeding up ever so slowly, eventually setting a nice pace that she was comfortable with. Then she looked up at him to she how he liked it.

Shirou Emiya

Shirou wasn't saying a word, but from the expression on his face, he was obviously enjoying her work. He wasn't going to be able to hold it in much longer. He could feel his dick twitching inside her throat, and oh god.

"Is it all right if I come inside?" Shirou asked her.

[Thedoctor]

Shinobu

As the tall man who wasn't Theodore turned his back to them and tried to leave, the blond dashed towards him and grabbed hold of his hand. "Please do not leave yet..." The vampire sounded suprisingly meek as she choked the words out. She couldn't even remember the last time she had begged to someone, and to this man of all people...it was eating at her, but she kept at it.

"Medaka really wanted to see you. She, she was worried about you...so please do not just leave like this."

[Kotomine_Rin]

Lorenzo Remei

"Bwahahaha! That sounds crazy, let's hear it!!" He roared, slapping the ground. "Oi, Joe, are you sure you' don't got any drink in here? At this point, hogging it all for yerself would be rude. A story this amazing needs an amazing drink to accompany it!"

[Kat]

Mordred

"After we're done with the adventure, I'd like to show you something, Breeze. But elsewhere, a restaurant doesn't look like the proper place for that." For obvious reasons she didn't feel like disclosing her true looks in the public. She thought it was high time for Breeze to learn the truth.
