One Shackle (backdated to Tuesday)

[godlyreigns]

I - [action for 769 Bunker]

[Rider was instantly on edge. Feeling no connection to Sakura, and waking up next to a strange man probably did the trick. So the instant she regains full consciousness, she springs out of bed.]

[a) Jonathan - your new notwaifu has acquired a kitchen cleaver and is pointing it at you.] Answers. Now. What have you done with me? Where is my Master?

[b) Sealand - your notmom is padding around the house, wearily. When she sees you, wherever you are, she stops and looks quizzical.] Are you the one they think is my son?

II - [phone - morning]

[Rider's voice is calm, but has an edge of intense worry and anxiety.] Is someone named Sakura Matou in this town? I must find her, immediately.

III - [florists - the next afternoon]

[She'd gotten a call the previous day, asking why she hadn't come in for work at the flower shop. So, dutifully, she'd went there. However, she looks ridiculously uncertain. Her steps have a certain tentative air to them, and she looks like she's not even sure she's in the right building.]

Ah...hello? Does anyone work here...?

[If you happen to be going there for whatever reason, feel free to bump into the confused lady who knows nothing about her job :<]

That Archer is gone, and he is your Servant.

[ Rin might look a bit upset whenever Rider says the former statement. ]

I can still take care of you. [ She knows trust is a major thing with Servants. ] With mana and a temporary Master. If this town springs the surprise on you suddenly, you can come to me.

[ Lancer needs to learn to share someday. ]

[godlyreigns]

[Augh. Dammitdammitdammit she did not want to face the truth. It hurts. Sob.]

Very well. But I intend to wait for her return, no matter how long it might take.

[gandere]

I do too.

I don't really want her to return to this place, but it's lonesome. I can't really spend time with her while I'm studying at the Clock Tower.

[godlyreigns]

Mmm. That's agreeable. Like a double-edged sword.

[She rests her chin in her hands.]

[gandere]

I don't really spend much time with people, but we can do things together if you like. Do you know if you have a job or anything?

awwwww. I smiled irl.

[godlyreigns]

[Rider smiles.]

I did receive a call. I think I am a florist?

sdjglsdgd aw ;w;

[gandere]

A florist? Well, that's good. It makes time go by easier when you've got something to do. I'm a student.. despite spending my birthday here. It's insulting to be eighteen years old and still forced to go to school.

[godlyreigns]

[That smile just turns into a frown.]

Oh dear. Do you have any idea why?

[gandere]

Because this town is stupid. I really wonder if they'll make me spend my next birthday here.

Say Rider. [ Trying to lighten the mood. ] We should try to get together in a few days. I'm told there's a holiday coming up and this place ruins them.. so maybe we can celebrate early.

[godlyreigns]

{She tilts her head sympathetically.]

I'd like that.

[gandere]

Then it's a plan I suppose.

Do you have any questions about this place?

[godlyreigns]

[A nod.]

I think I know everything I need to, already.

[gandere]

Then what boring thing should we do to entertain ourselves today?

[ Spoken as though she knows how quick this place loses it's spark. ]

[godlyreigns]

[Rider just shrugs.]

You have been here longer than I. You would know better, correct?

[gandere]

I normally just make Lancer do something stupid if I need entertainment.

... want to watch Lancer do something stupid?

[godlyreigns]

[She claps her hands over her mouth, holding back a torrent of giggles.]

[gandere]

So that's a yes, right?

[godlyreigns]

I suppose, as long as it's not too humiliating for the man. [S N R K]

[gandere]

[ Leaning back on the couch, she gives a tiny yawn. At the same time though?

Lancer, come here. ]

[riastrad-ridire.livejournal.com]

[A few seconds later, one (1) Servant in civilian clothes would materialize, arms crossed.]

What d'you--oh hey, Rider--what do you want, kid?

[godlyreigns]

[To be honest, she's more curious as to what Rin will have him do than actually being entertained.

She just gives a small wave.]

[gandere]

Lancer, I want to hear you sing.

[riastrad-ridire.livejournal.com]

. . .

What.

[godlyreigns]

[Rider rests her face in her hands. She is definitely trying not to laugh. How lucky she was that Sakura would never make her do such a thing.]
