[MEME] Let's Talk RC (CR Testdrive)

[missleadingquestions]

I don't really have a fitting picture for this.

G'day, Ruby City! It's time for a meme for both testdrivers and denizens.

Been itching to test out some CR but haven't had the posts to do it? Thinking of apping a character but not sure they'll fit in the city walls?

Have no fear, a meme for you is here.

Directions:

• Post with your character with their name and canon on top!


• Choose a location and prompt or wait for someone else to tag.


• If you'd like, leave contact info for people to get in contact for plotting and other such shenans.


• Tag around! Make friends. Don't be afraid to chat OOC while tagging.

Locations:

1. Train Station: New arrival, or waiting to welcome people? Either way, the train comes in, but you still can't ride it out.


2. Cathedral: Looking for redemption? Just doing a little sight-seeing? Or just getting a little shelter?


3. The Clocktower: You can see the whole city from here!


4. The Black Stallion Saloon: You were told the burgers were great here-- but maybe you just came for the beer.


5. The Library: You came to do a little research, but it looks like all of the information's just out of your reach. Though, you can always find a way to pass the time here.


6. The Coffee Joint: Run by James Potter and Lukas, a lovely place to have a chat and a bite to eat.


7. Le Cafe Anglais: A Parisian-British fusion that's as charming as it sounds and serves the best tea around.

Scenarios

1. Just walked in: You intended to get here, and you made your way in; but now someone's caught your eye and you'd like to have a chat.


2. Been here all day: You've been sitting around minding the time. Maybe you didn't notice them at first or maybe you were just working up the courage to talk-- either way, they know you're here and you know it too.


3. Inclimate weather: You're here because you've gotten rained in. This wasn't your choice, but at least it's dry-- right?


4. Wild card: Got something better in mind? Well screw these prompts, try it out yourself!

Have fun, guys!

Well, twenty years will do that.

[pure_as_snow]

[Iri's face wears a look of shock. Even for an artificial human born to be the grail's vessel, such an idea still seemed outlandish.]

How has such a span of time passed? The last I knew the Fourth Grail War was still taking place.

[gordianknots]

This place likes to use the second and fifth magics, as far as I can tell.

[pure_as_snow]

It is strange to think such power magic would be found in a place like this.

[gordianknots]

Well, if it isn't those magics, it's an equiviliant from a different school of thought. Classifying and understanding it has been well, near impossible.

[A shrug. There's no point in babbling about magic theory right now. Really, Waver's more concerned with letting her know that the grail no longer exists in his time.]

[pure_as_snow]

Well, if there is anything I can do to help. Feel free to ask.

[Irisviel smiles.]

But tell me, how have you been, Waver?

[gordianknots]

Well really, anyone with a higher circuit count than me is probably better at trying to counteract magic, although I almost think it'd be a waste of time.

[The question does take him a little bit aback though. He'd suspect anyone in the middle of that war to be far, far less polite.]

Busy is the best word I have for it.

Forgive me the idiot question, but I only ever knew your surname. I feel a bit bad referring to you by it, I only reserve that for students being a problem or professors I dislike.

[pure_as_snow]

It's not problem at all, really! It's rare for anyone outside my family to know my name.

But since you asked so nicely...My given name is Irisviel.

[gordianknots]

And now I am enlightened.

Mm. Second idiot question, since you know that I'm a few years ahead of you. What's the last event that you recall in the war?

[pure_as_snow]

The last I remember everyone was scrambling to defeat Caster and his master.

[gordianknots]

Oh. Fairly early on then, by all accounts.

[pure_as_snow]

Yes, there is much left to do before the war ends and my husband will finally be able to realize his dreams.

[gordianknots]

[....about that. Waver manages a thin smile, for once not wanting to reveal the ending of the war.

Then again, Kirei may do it before he can, and between narrators, Waver does see himself as the better of the two.]

[pure_as_snow]

Is anything wrong? You seem quiet.

[gordianknots]

Nothing important for now, although it occurs to me that I'm not the only one from the end of the war present here.

[pure_as_snow]

Oh? Are there many masters here besides you?

[gordianknots]

Myself and Assassin's former master, Kirei. Saber's also present, but I guess you'll find each other easily enough. [He's leaving certain Matou magi out of it, since they aren't even participating in the war yet.]

[pure_as_snow]

[It was unsettling to hear the man who had recently stabbed her through the chest was here, but such worry was best left for later.]

It is good that Saber is here. I imagine she was worried about me while she was here by herself.

[gordianknots]

[--You know given how he spoke of Kiritsugu, Waver's a little taken aback by the utter lack of reaction on Iri's part.]

I never thought to ask, honestly.
