Being truly on my own is a bit of a weird feeling. It's never really happened.

Let it never be said that sometimes extreme brevity isn't the most appropriate post, though. Everything is a tool.

The action will be 'vampire is killed by the other PC's almost immediately'.
Archer


Now free to do whatever they wanted, Archer considered the best way to serve their Master in the coming war--regardless of how the girl that summoned them decided to go about this conflict. It would be best if nobody knew that Yumiko was involved in the war, which meant concealing their own status as a Servant--and crafting a suitable disguise needed resources. That meant that they'd have to spend some time getting money... it wasn't like they were going to just rob a store with no compensation.

As a result, the Servant spent some time lurking in the dark alleyways, constantly on the lookout for trouble. It paid off, with an attempted mugging resulting in a net loss for the would-be criminal as the Heroic Spirit rescued their victim and the villain's wallet.

The next day, a local department store--closed for the night--would report an inexplicable break-in with no apparent perpetrator... and more money than the cost of the stole merchandise left neatly by the tills. Not that Archer terribly cared what the news had to say, finishing adjusting their outfit. Boots, gloves, a peaked cap... and more pockets than even they knew what to do with. Even with the camera and miscellaneous accompaniments they'd have to learn how to use.

Now that nobody could recognise them, let alone as a Servant, Archer set about finding their Master's residence. Come to think of it, even their Master wouldn't... that might be one confusing conversation.




Izisviel


The homunculus sipped at her own tea, thinking over the request. Obviously, she would like Saber to step in if some other Master inexplicably overcame her... but her Servant being pulled out of position for something that Izisviel could handle on her own would be detrimental in a heated battle, "Only if actually overwhelmed. Merely getting hit should not need such involvement, I imagine that my protections would hold up against most magi long enough to put the battle to an end."

Because forgetting how to be athletic and avoid the huge axe when your spell was cast to no avail happened to be a terminal flaw out of what was a rather sedentary lot.

"On the table beside this couch, there should be a map of the city."
I... Would prefer to wait for Rain to move again (even though she isn't a part of the scene Yumiko's in) just to keep a sense of time, but I can move otherwise.


Archer's going to be gone for a while. Trust me. Gives Yumiko plenty of time to set up a signal so that they can meet up again. xD

Archer


Aww, it seemed that their cute little Master didn't want to see exactly how fast a Servant could get from A to B. Well, that was fine too, if she'd recovered from the apparent strain of summoning so swiftly. Archer obediently followed behind for a minute before catching sound of something rather unexpected in the forest night, when they moved forward to whisper something to Yumiko. "Master, keep going ahead and put something red in the window."

Then Archer stepped away, dropping back into the forest and heading for the sound of footsteps. Why would someone be back here so late at night? It was a rather out of the way place for a midnight stroll and, like his Master had realised, a good spot for summoning a Servant without attracting undue attention.

Through plain but well-honed skulking, and an outfit intended to fit into this sort of environment, Archer tracked the bizarrely not at home man for a while before breaking off once he left the woodland, where their outfit would attract far too much attention. It wasn't anything conclusive, but at least when it came to people to suspect of being Masters, a tall blonde heading into town when everything was closed seemed likely.

Now they just had to meet up with their Master again.




Izisviel von Einzbern


The homunculus looked thoughtful whilst she waited for Lotus to complete her expected duty, thinking over Saber's preferred method of combat and her own abilities. Soon enough, the small maid arrived several minutes later with tea in hand--green, given the likely preference of the summoned Servant--before leaving the room and returning to the other task assigned before the ritual: establishing a bounded field such that the house's inhabitants would know if someone broke into it.

"I am more suited for conflict than passive observation," Izisviel said, "I doubt that other Masters are likely such inclined. For the purposes of winning this war with the highest degree of success, I would appreciate it if I can engage the other Masters whilst you keep the Servants occupied."
Lancer's calling the 34 year old guy 'boy'? xD
Something about muscular men with a shared love for big rods...
The only reveal was of... someone who is obviously not a Servant. O_o
Kohinata Miku


The strange kidnapping blob was fortunately defeated... and unfortunately released a cloud of yet more bugs, which seemed to be far harder to take down. Her response to being almost directly in the crowd once more was to try and retreat backwards to some clear space, even if this put her by the crazy scientist for a moment, and to keep utilising Shanguang: making up for lack of power in each attack by sheer number. Nothing compared to what many other Symphogear could pull out, but they were bright lights...

... and insects were known to be attracted to bright lights, even in the face of imminent death. It might make the hail of weak beams more useful if the things attacking them were going for the attacks rather than the two girls, that was for sure. Once they were gone, they could get out of this laboratory; it was already starting to unnerve Miku a little.




Artorias the Abysswalker


"Indeed, that doth seem like our appointed task," Artorias stated, kneeling in order to not risk headbutting (and thus potentially damaging) anything in this completely human-sized room. To aid in finding the source of this plague would surely fix any such destabilisation in the world--or doubtless lead them towards it. A world-consuming plague could surely not be irrelevant to their appointed journey, no matter how simple it was for them to deal with the dead as they came.

"Doth thou not have some inclination for the refuge of these 'bioterrorists'?"

They seemed to be hiding more than the Abyss had, from her description.
Izisviel von Einzbern


Hefting the enormous slab of stone over her shoulder like it wasn't several times her own weight, Izisviel set about introducing Saber to the only four people she needed to know about for this war whilst heading to the currently sparsely-furnished living room to actually discuss the War.

"I am Izisviel von Einzbern, and the fifth Einzbern to enter into a Grail War, with a proxy working for us on the other occasion," she said, scowling at the mention of a proxy. Hadn't that worked out so well? She'd not been able to fight for the Grail's survival without hearing about how much he managed to destroy by chance, "The small maid is Lotus, the tall one is Cinquefoil, and the last is Hydrangea. I doubt that she will warm to you in the short duration of the war, so don't expect her to say much."

The white-haired homunculus availed herself of part of the cushioned sofa that had been part of the basic furnishings acquired, and after Saber had picked her own place, asked "Saber, how do you prefer to fight?" Obviously, she wasn't after Saber's choice of weapon...




Archer


"Whatever a beauty such as yourself needs," Archer stated, grinning and dismissing the bow to free their hands before scooping up the Japanese girl and holding her close to a lightly armoured chest, then... standing around waiting to be given directions. There were better places to get acquainted than in the middle of a forest, though Archer found such a location perfectly suitable for meeting new people, but... they didn't yet know the way out.
This marks the first start to a (roleplay) Grail War I've seen where different Masters actually feel some level of strain on summoning a Servant. xD
