@cantillat asked: ❝ I didn’t realize I’d become a prisoner. ❞ pick your snarky Shirou of preference

A Court of Mist and Fury starters - No Longer Accepting!

She'd already promised him she wouldn't ask: Shirou would tell her the details of his missions as he wished to divulge them, and in turn, she would provide support if and when it was needed.

The problem became when they didn't agree on the latter: particularly, what entailed necessary support. Yes, she accepted he could heal himself faster than a regular human, but when he'd showed up at her door with plenty of cuts, a gunshot graze, and barely standing from complete exhaustion, she hadn't hesitated to hire the expertise of a discreet physician while insisting he stay in bed, with rest and food (that she hadn't prepared), until he was able to get back on his feet again without swaying from left to right, flopping back onto the mattress in defeat.

Currently, she sat on the edge of his bed, a pile of clean dressings and disinfectant on a tray on the nearby table. She kept him on a schedule of antibiotics, in case he was susceptible to septicemia, clean bandages, and steady meals. By the look of him, he seemed like he hadn't had consistent meals in quite some time.

"I would ask you to not overreact quite so much to your current predicament," She retorted, peeling back one of the soiled bandages away from his upper back. "You did come to me for help. You aren't a prisoner: you are convalescing until you are strong enough to leave again."

She didn't warn him this time before applying the disinfectant. She'd used to, but his snarky, sour attitude had resulted in Sonia using a firmer, steadier hand in treating him. "If you agree to your bandages getting changed and eating the beef stew that's currently on the stove for you, I'll bring a selection of superhero movies for you to watch. I remember you telling me years ago that you enjoyed superheroes, and the sentai shows."

Merlin thought of himself as Arthur's right hand man ( though that was not at all true given the round table. ) The magus was more of the right hand trouble maker..

The initial impression of the Chaldea Security Organization was nothing short of amazement. The technology was blowing Emma away. She’s had experience with other mages of the Clock Tower, but the mages that were supposed to make up the other Masters, particularly the ones on Team A, were all extremely impressive in their own right. Comparatively, she belonged to a mage family without an extensive bloodline, and most of her spells weren’t very strong to begin with. To the others, she may as well have been an insignificant speck not even worthy enough to be on their radar.

Hell, she hadn’t even spoken to any of the mages on Team A. That’s how much she measured up in comparison.

She didn’t blame them for not talking to her, though. She had almost entirely turned her back on mage society long ago. Chaldea was an excuse to get away from it all.

There was supposed to be a debriefing meeting in a few days, before the actual mission began. From then on it would be a fight for humanity, but Emma was certain that the spotlight wouldn’t be anywhere near her.

She combed a hand through her hair, a habit stemming from nervousness and anxiety. She wondered if the cafeteria had something, anything that would ease her nerves. Most of the other Masters were in the simulator, so who would miss her?

@cantillat

The formal dan system of kyudo ranking, in the eyes of Shinobu's father, was outdated. An overreliance on spiritualism kept otherwise capable practitioners stuck at lower ranks, while old men with bodies far too frail to keep up rested upon their laurels in the high ranks. Unfortunately, the All Nippon Kyudo Federation still held a great deal of institutional power, and their rules and regulations needed obeying, regardless of one's personal opinion. In order to be a qualified owner of a dojo, especially one with the history of the Yaguchi Dojo, a person would need to attain the rank of renshi, which itself required being a 5-dan.

To that end, Shinobu had jumped through the Federations' inane hoops, gaining rank after rank in pursuit of eligibility. As the dojo's heir, it would be unbecoming of them to falter or stagnate, and though a higher rank held no interest for Shinobu, they needed to be prepared to inherit the dojo whenever that day came. She found the examinations rather unpleasant, elderly fools fawning over her for her sense of filial piety, and her dedication towards carrying a traditional art into the future.

At least there was no further need to attend after reaching her desired ranks. Of course, the additional workload hardly ended there, for once she'd reached her instructor's rank, it was ethically permissible for Shinobu to teach. Though the Yaguchi Dojo had few students besides herself, her father's relationships with other members of the community often led to others taking advantage of the dojo's amenities, or dropping by for short-term instruction. Rather troublesome.

Today was such a day, with Shinobu's father having ordered them to be a gracious host towards a young woman coming to visit from a nearby high school. The specifics weren't conveyed to her - they seldom were - but that mattered little, she supposed. She would arrive, be shown to the dojo, and allowed to practice as she liked. If instruction was required, or desired, Shinobu would make their assessments. Working with other people was hardly her strength, but if it was necessary in her role as the dojo's heir, so be it.

Still, if her father was to leave for the day, entrusting the matter to her, Shinobu would dress as she liked, rather than the drab neutral-colored samue, or training wear, with face bare and hair tied back. Instead, she greeted the young woman at the large estate's front gate in a black kimono, decorated with red spider lilies, dark eyeliner encircling her eyes, a red color painted over her lips, and her hair down with earrings dangling at either side. Her suits and menswear were unsuited to archery, but a kimono maintained the traditional aesthetic and wasn't unacceptable in exhibitions.

"Good afternoon. You must be Miss Mitsuzuri." As her father had said, they were likely quite close in age. "My name is Shinobu Yaguchi. I'm this dojo's heir, and I'll accompany you today." Beyond that, there was little to say about herself. "Please watch your step on the pathway. It's uneven, and it would be a waste to have come here were you to trip and injure yourself." After setting the gate to close, Shinobu turned, walking along the stones in zori sandals in practiced stride without issue. "The dojo is on the other side of the estate, but it isn't a long walk." From their position by the gate, the winding stone path passed a large koi pond and a picturesque zen garden, with the long dojo building pressed against the far end of the estate's walls.

cantillat asked: ❝ you don’t need to thank me. ❞ from Archer to either Rider or Gorgon. You pick MISCELLANEOUS SENTENCE PROMPTS|accepting

🐍— ❝And why would I?❞ She questioned, coils shifting around as shed gazed upon the Red Archer. Something about him familiar and something about him, angered her greatly. She was unsure of what though. ❝ If you wish not not be eaten, then I suggest you run boy....I’m in no mood for heroes today. ❞ The gorgon warned, before turning her head as if she remembered more than she wished to.

Continued from here for @cantillat!

Sonia hadn't thought for a second that he was there on business. Shirou might have changed greatly since their high school days, since the time he spent keeping house and looking after the likes of Miss Fujimura and Rin. But to be enjoying a place of luxurious depravity like Monaco? That was something she could never believe: there was no one here in need of his rescuing.

Herself included, despite the fatigue she kept carefully hidden behind curled lashes and a pale pink smile. "You don't look out of place," She assured him, quickly looking him up and down. It needed to be quick: for one, she was sure they were being watched by someone who recognized one or both of them, and two, she didn't trust herself to linger. She'd never seen him like this: jeans and a t-shirt, a school uniform, even naked from the navel up. But never truly polished, having left all semblance of boyhood behind. Right alongside his red hair and the last of his optimism.

The former didn't bother her. The latter, she'd spent some time thinking about ever since she left The Maldives. Something she never directly asked Hilda about when she saw her, but trusted that when she inquired after her work and the Edelfelt family, she'd let something slip if something had happened to Shirou Emiya. Her twin sister, Luviagelita, had been planning her wedding to him since the day they met in university: if magecraft school counted as university. Surely the family kept tabs on him, the best anyone could anyway. "Most of the patrons here, as long as they are well-dressed, tend to look quite aloof until they find something that sparks their interest. A high-stakes game, usually."

Or someone that sparked their interest. She'd left that part conveniently unsaid, especially as he'd complimented her dress. And despite being a princess who was complimented nearly every day on her appearance, Sonia's cheeks still matched the color of her lipstick as she smoothed down the front of the dusky silver skirt festooned with sparkling beads. "Thank you," She replied, her voice mimicked her smile: gentle, but pleased. "I didn't have much of a choice in the matter, though: it's important to support recycled items, especially during meetings related to climate change. Though among all of the black and jewel tones here, I imagine I'm the one who looks out of place." Even if she didn't bear a crown, she still glittered inside and out. There were no dark gowns, complete with darker looks and the intent of gambling an amount that could keep dozens, if not hundreds, of families healthy. That was more commonly the dress code among those she knew who ducked into the Monte Carlo: grateful for the unlimited betting options in the private room. Equally grateful that photography was banned throughout the casino, to protect their guests' dignity (if they managed to leave with some of it intact).

Something that she too now was thankful for. In spite of herself, Sonia's eyes lit up at his proposition: in eagerness, in a silent 'thank you' for switching exclusively to Japanese, even if it wouldn't solve every problem at hand. "It isn't too bold," She replied, glancing quickly over his shoulder. The young, presumably Novosonian, woman still looked rather starstruck: and while she couldn't take a photo (especially as an employee), that didn't stop her thumbs from flying across her mobile. Sonia gritted her teeth behind her smile, wondering what would be worse: the media getting wind of the Princess of Novoselic having a possible lover, or her family finding out.

Because, she realized with a sinking feeling in her stomach, that was precisely how a tip about her, in the Monte Carlo after the evening's official events had ended, chatting amiably with someone tall, dark, and handsome would look. Especially if it appeared that they already knew one another. Even if it wasn't the case at all: it was how it looked. Appearances, often even more than laws and regulations themselves, held more power over her life than anything else.

"It's just that I'd prefer to visit one of the bars on the quieter floors," She explained, stressing the last two words. She meant the floors that mostly contained the private rooms: if she was correct, it would be several hours yet until those games took a break, and no one would bat an eye if she took up residence on one of the velvet-upholstered stools or a low table for the sake of privacy until then. Sometimes, being a princess did come with perks. "I believe one of the wait staff is Novosonian, if not some of the patrons themselves. And I really don't wish to be the morning's breaking news. Would you mind escorting me to the bar upstairs?"

Send 📜 (or ‘Wishlist!’) and I’ll tell you one thing I want to write! ( ACCEPTING )

Gotta be honest with y'all here; kinda want to explore more psychological warfare. I know that's a little fucked, but it's canon! You want me to believe that this bozo doesn't have the potential to do far more damage to a motherfucker after he's done shit like cause a rival gang leader to kill his own girlfriend, or while much more simple, unmasked the leader of a gang of luchadors to embarrass him in the public eye? There's probably a lot more that I haven't thought up! But my god is there so much potential for this.

Like I want Django to really pull out all the stops when it comes to this subject. If he's really going to go above and beyond in demolishing the various empires people have set up, then he's gonna break these fools not only physically and financially, but spiritually AND mentally.

He's a real piece of shit!

Beach/Pool Starters | Accepting!

@cantillat asked: [TEACH] - sender teaches the receiver how to swim (Shirou decides to teach her)

It wasn't that she didn't know how to swim, she just couldn't swim well. She could float and doggy paddle, that was good enough, right? Never mind that she was afraid of submerging her head underwater.

Emma would have been content lounging in her inner tube for her pool time, but the man-made currents from other swimmers pushed her float to the deep end of the pool, she couldn't help the bead of fear in her heart. She called for Shirou's help, and while he was happy to do it, he also asked why Emma didn't do it herself.

"I'm just not the strongest swimmer." And the rest was history.

He was holding her hands, smiling at the nervous expression on her face. She knew Shirou wasn't mocking her, but found her face cute. Emma's face was still beet red, though. Letting someone see a vulnerability of hers was a rarity. "Y-You really don't have to do this... I'm fine with my inner tube..."

belladonna : how does your muse respond to silence ? do they take comfort in soundlessness , or seek to fill the void with noise ?

botanical headcanons, open ! @cantillat ♡

that depends! is she alone or is she with someone else?

when alone, she'd find it uncomfortable- it just makes her feel even more numb and empty, but i think that mostly comes from her being alone rather than a general dislike for silence. i don't think she'd have many opportunities to be in silence with herself though, i'd say it's almost like almost purposefully keeping herself busy to avoid that but the "workaholic" aspect of her comes out of her need to compensate for her self-perceived uselessness rather than fill in the silence.

speaking of, that's also a reason why i think she would like music! it's a good way to fill in that silence, and music expresses feelings from the heart in ways that regular words can't which... absolutely sounds like something that would resonate with hakuno, no? even if she doesn't quite understand it herself, i think music would be able to reach her heart :,)

–but back to the silence ask! when with someone else, it also really depends on who she's with sgfksbfkdj bear with me!! hakuno's really perceptive, so i think she'd be able to pick up on whether the silence is an awkward one or a comforting one, so on and so forth. that would also be based on objective circumstances or observing the other party rather than her own feelings! i think she'd typically be indifferent to it no matter what kind, so what she'd do would depend on the other person. though even if she did feel uncomfortable, hakuno doesn't pay attention to her own needs at all 🥹 so she'd only do something about it if she notices someone else feeling disturbed by it in any capacity.

if they're uncomfortable with the silence, then she'll try making small talk; if they like the silence, then she'll keep quiet. hakuno's really good at taking care of others but not herself aha, so she'll act in the way that best fits them.

and i just want to say that this is an important character trait for my hakuno!! since she lacks any real opinions and doesn't even know what she likes or wants herself, her actions are always influenced by the other person in some extent. it's interesting because it's telling of her lack of identity + her tendency to act with others in mind rather than herself.... it's her way of trying to understand herself too, but it sure is a fine line between lacking any individuality and just doing what she thinks other people want !

#&&. hcs #cantillat #q.#TYSM FOR SENDING ONE IN SINN 🫶🫶#h.akuno's way of thinking is rlly Interesting(TM) 2 me #and it rlly depends on a whole lotta things !

cantillat asked: Shirou arrives with a basket with sweets and resists the temptation of giving Ana some head pats. She is adorable but he doesn’t want to patronize her. ❝ Here, I made these for you. ❞

🐍— ❝Why?❞ She questioned, her tone just as her older self would’ve asked. Yet, he would see the little serpent’s gaze on the bag of treats he brought. ❝I’m not her, you know.....❞ Lancer responded, yet her hands reached for the treats. ❝I have no link to you.....Not like she does.❞ She paused, to taste the sweets he gave. ❝But, your snacks are welcome.... ❞

@chibitantei sent - 📒 three blogs i couldn't live without ( My Roleplay Experiences - Accepting! )

📒 - Three blogs I couldn't live without.

Ah, so this is a loaded one right off the bat. I want to preface this by saying I'm always sort of awkward when it comes to any symbols that involve highlighting specific blogs or naming names, because I don't want others to feel excluded or like certain blogs are being favored. I adore all of my mutuals equally, so I just want to highlight three good friends.

@isaaccecilbryant - They're an easy answer right off the bat for me. They're my oldest friend from Tumblr RP currently, everyone before Stacie I either lost touch with or parted ways with. Stacie and I have been friends for a good number of years now, it's hard to imagine a day going by not messaging her or receiving a message from her and she's a friend who I'll always treasure a lot. We've been there for each other through some tough times and I feel like I can tell her anything.

@cantillat - Sin is another mun where it would feel odd if I didn't hear from them or feel an urge to message them. I feel an interesting bond with them because we became friends quite recently but on my end, I already feel very close with them and consider them to be a good friend and a close confidant - it took a while for our paths to cross and for us to talk, but I think that was for the best as I know I still had some growing and maturing to do - and being around them really inspires me to want to be my best self.

@chibitantei - Honestly it sounds like a cop out to name the blog who sent the symbol in the first place but speaking from a place of total honesty, you're another person who I would feel weird not hearing from or not messaging. I appreciate that even though there are a lot of joke and meme conversations, we've also been able to share some honest talks about our experiences in the RPC, both good and bad. You're just someone who's really chill and overall kind and helpful and I appreciate you loads.

@cantillat said: "Are you my Master?" your pick

The Magus crossed her arms and stared at the Lancer she summoned. Of course she was the one who summoned her, who else would it be? Definitely not that counter part of hers who wasn’t strong enough. Nem stood there, eyeing her up and down before nodding briskly.

“Ya, what of it?” She retorted while smirking at her. “Are you strong enough to be of use to me? I require strength to help me carve out a path. To take down my enemies with no remorse, by any means necessary. Are you up for it, Servant?”
