+1 Fate/ cast

[gordianknots]

So, hi, new member etc. post going up, I'm Meg, and the new cast member is Waver Velvet of Fate/zero. His canon point is actually taking apart the Holy Grail, so he's had time to grow into a slightly snarkier mage, and get used to being a professor as well as playing politics.

I'm Megkips on AIM, Skype and tumblr if you need to get in touch with me, as my connection and Plurk are not friends. Questions, comments, etc. are cool here.

Also, er, as a question to the other Fate/ folks here, I do want to clear what level of knowledge Waver might have on your character, since he's set twenty years post /zero canon and I don't imagine he would have taken apart the Grail without doing serious research and I don't want to overstep bounds. Thanks!

Hi o/ I'm Fiona, one of the mods, and I play Dirk Strider of Homestuck, as well as Remus Lupin (Harry Potter), Enoch (El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron), The Dolorosa (Homestuck) and England (Axis Powers: Hetalia) here at RC.

I hope you enjoy your time here! :3 If you'd like to hit me up on Plurk/AIM I'm at hardtostarboard and littlebritteacup. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions!

[gordianknots]

Aw, hi, good to meet you. Luc's been killing me emotionally with the England and Saber things you guys planned, so you've been much the source of dying whale noises!

[rule_britannia]

Skree. Get the popcorn ready it's gonna be great.

[gordianknots]

By which you mean I'm going to be lying on my side in a puddle of my own tears then yeah, great.

[trashkind]

Hi Meg! I'm Fel and I am driving around Madoka Kaname of PMMM fame and also Kariya here. Welcome to the game and I hope you enjoy it here!

also I am 100% up for hashing out whatever it is Waver might know about this idgit so that should definitely be A Thing.

[gordianknots]

Yeah dude, my Saber friend here kept linking me to your other threads and I kept going, "FUCK THAT IS A GOOD KAYRIA." So yeah.

And yeeeahhhh do you wanna do that here or some other venue? Either works for me.

[trashkind]

oh gosh no I am terrible at taking compliments but thank you?? I'm glad I'm apparently doing that good a job with him /)///(\

Here works fine for me! Did you have anything in mind for what he'd know already?

[gordianknots]

No, dude, you are awesome. :DDD

I've always imagined that Berserker was the big question mark in research, as there's only really Waver's knowledge and whatever record keeping Tokiomi had going on. (Accessed via Rin, becaus Tohsaka-Velvet bromance is my reason for existing.) So, when it came time to do any sort of research into the grail wars to figure out what the heck even broke the grail, these were the only two sources. It was always a tossup between "did the Matou have Caster or Berserker this round?" and nothing was ever really confirmed. So, Waver would have about zero knowledge of Kayria existing and roll in the war.

[trashkind]

This all sounds about right to me! (And yes good, I approve of Tohsaka-Velvet bromances.) And now I just sit here and cover my face as I think about how Kariya's eventual canon update just keeps getting worse, oh lawd.

[gordianknots]

Okay, awesome! (it is my favourite thing and don't get me started on it because i will talk your ear off.)

......wooooooooooooooooooooorms.

Timeline constants!

[seeyousuffer]

Hello, Meg! I'm Fox, and I play this guy here, who you know. It's great to see you and Waver here. I'm excited!

I think we've threaded once before on a meme before, when I was playing Kariya.

Waver's welcome to know anything about this jerk here. Even though he hasn't come into his full jerk potential yet.

[gordianknots]

Well met, and yayyyy evreyone's favourite mullet headed sadist! This'll be awesome.

8|a I don't usually go on memes, so I think you're talking about skinnymandria, which would be my partner-in-crime Sue. In which case that thread hurt me a lot.

I've basically taken how much Waver knows about the jerk is directly tied to how much Rin is willing to discuss said jerk.

[seeyousuffer]

Yes, he's the most loveable sadist.

Ooh, right, that must be it! I know I've seen your username around, so I think I confused the two of you, oops. That was a painful thread.

Haha, I can see that. Well, I'm fine with anything. So whatever you think Rin might have said is okay with me.

[gordianknots]

Man, I confuse the two of us! We've written a fair amount of fic together too, so our Wavers are pretty much the same, as our pair of pansexual Sumerians. I just remember her sending me that thread and me yelling, "NO WHY THIS." It definitely made an impression on me.

Okay, cool. It'll more likely be a, "I recongize that name, and Rin really didn't elaborate, which is a bad sign," then, if that's acceptable?

[seeyousuffer]

Ah, I see. That's great! What are your pansexual Sumerian accounts?

I'm glad it could make an impression. I really enjoy her Waver very much, and I'm sure I will enjoy yours, too.

That's perfectly acceptable. And yes, definitely a bad sign, as Kirei is one of the worst people ever. Though fortunately (for others) he's still without bad influences here!

[gordianknots]

likeawildbull and axeatyourside!

Waver's a wonderful vehicle for playing with mage politics (my catnip)

Kirei is consistently the worst, but he's also consistently entertaining, even if I want to give him a haircut by the time /stay night rolls about. (And we were all very thankful for a lack of Gil.)
