(( sorry for spam, but new event AHHH!!! ))

☙VIDEO;

Arthur Pendragon!! [ Hello, what kind of greeting is it for someone to declare their own name and not only that, she's using 'The Tone' - you know, the kind women take on to sound intimidating but it ends up sounding adorable. ] I implore you to answer my call. A striking revelation has revealed itself and I believe it to be one of importance not only to you, but to those who know us. Even though I do not recall you during my time spent in Britain, it is clear as the water purified by the priests of the church. [ And in her excitement, she's a bit too talkative. ] You are my elder sibling!

[ In fact, she seems a bit too eager to please her older brother as she puts a smile on her face. This is totally canon, hello Sir Kay?? ]

There are many things we must discuss. For instance, you must meet the knight I have recruited. Ah! Now that you are here, perhaps we could properly induct Diarmuid in as a proper Knight of the Round Table. Hold on, I shall send you directions to my residency. Neglect to notice the flashiness and the bulk of wealth within, such possessions do not belong to me. Until next we meet, brother.

[ WOW GUYS HAVE YOU EVER SEEN SABER SO MOE?? Hurriedly she clicks to end the call and as promised, a certain "brother" will receive instructions to the golden condo of the King of Heroes. ]

[Action; Private to Kayneth]

[Priorities change. Be it through trauma, or sheer old boredom, it is difficult to stick to one motivation your entire life. Eventually, your beliefs are defied in one way or another, forcing you to either adapt or die.]

[Kiritsugu has reached that point, and yet, has not reached that point. The core of his ideas remains the same. Protect. Save. But where once he saw every life as equally valuable, now he no longer strives to save any but those he cares about. Yet deep down, the same desire to be a hero of justice tears him up inside.]

[Yes. Kayneth's appearance inspires feelings in him he does not quite recognize. Regret has been a constant companion since the culmination of the Fourth War, but what currently plagues him is much more akin to shame, an emotion Kiritsugu has never felt before.]

[Yet Kiritsugu did not learn the ability to block out all emotions to reach his goals. He was born with it.]

[Other unnatural feelings well up in him. Bizarre emotions that can only be caused by another incident. He will not let it happen. He will stop the appearance of Shadows before another one emerges. But to do so, he must rid himself of interruptions.]

[It takes a few days for Kiritsugu to find a moment when Kayneth Archibald would be the only man in his floor, but he does not waste a single second of it. Inserting poison gas into the air vent was not too difficult a task. Not when the hotel was of average quality, and thus, possessing a security system easily infiltrated by him. Nothing fancy by any definition. If he could provide the second El-Melloi with a tranquilizer gun, he would have been remiss to not have gotten one himself. Guards are easier to take down than Shadows, and falling asleep on the job is not too rare an occurrence.]

[...Once again, he took precautions against unnecessary losses. It was one thing to do so when lives were at stake and the balance could be tipped too much, but nobody would have truly died here. Poisoning the entire floor for the afternoon was not negotiable, as directing his attack against nobody but Kayneth would have drawn much more suspicion, but to have waited until he was the only one there... it must have been simply to avoid too much publicity. Wouldn't do if this stirred up a frenzy.]

[He can't help but find the irony in smoking at a moment like this.]

[Public]

[Typical of his afternoons, Kiritsugu can be found at his job at a local restaurant. He's passing the time organizing the service, waiting for his break to come. He seems to have invited Shirou to talk during that time. Whatever news come up on any TVs go seemingly ignored by him.]

[He also seems to be averting eye contact with Saber. While Kiritsugu would typically ignore her, he would not actually display any signs of her presence influencing him. Something's wrong.]

[Voice]

[unknownrival]

[Issei sounds shaken-up.]

My poor innocence... wh-what did I do so much to anger you that you had to take it away from me so cruelly, Saber?

[He isn't in a state of mind where he thinks to send a private call. For reference: Saber got him a job at a maid cafe.]

[Some of you may have noticed that Ledah was missing from the city yesterday! Well, wonder no more about it, because Ledah is holding up the phone with one shaky hand. Bloodstains are visible on his white cravat and slightly less noticeable on his red robes, and he looks badly shaken.]

...I must really stop dying for people.

[So how 'bout that event, amirite?]

Vriska, Feferi, Nathan.

Get the hell to my hotel room. Bring that Eridork kid if you want.

We're going shopping.

[Mommy loves you.]

[Video] GUESS WHO'S BACK :'D

[fourteenthscion]

[The feed clicks, and an exhausted Neah appears on the feed. His demeanor very different from how he normally is, or, well. Was about a month ago.

Either way, he's back in his room after not occupying it for quite a long time. Or what seemed to be a long time.]

... What have I missed?

[The camera remains on, though he moves it away from his face, because. Fuck that.]

[ Anyone staying at the hotel might notice a table set up in the lobby, Elsie's been cooking all morning and ended up making a ton of food for a breakfast / lunch gathering. Because everyone must be really hungry right? She couldn't let people be hungry she'd be a terrible person if she didn't make sure everyone was well fed. ]

I made a lot of food if anyone is hungry! Everyone must be busy and it's important to eat three meals a day.

[ Elsie's gone little sister mode and will be trying to take care of anyone who decides to sit down and eat / talk to her. ]

[Well, its been a hard week of thinking, but Miki's finally been released from prison she doesn't know how her... mother? (that doesn't seem quite right to Miki, but Saori was her mother, wasn't she? Whatever.) She didn't know how her mother was able to come up with the money, but she really owed her this time.]

Phone, Locked to Saori

Hi, mom. I'm sorry. I won't do it again.

Phone, Open

All of you punks better get ready to straighten up, since I'm no longer in prison and I don't want any of you ending up there.

So you better go to school or I'm going to hunt you down.

[She begins to sound a bit more embarrassed.]

A...also to everyone who I trained last week, I'm sorry if I hurt you. I'll take it a bit easier next time.

I apologize for the what must certainly be abrupt, but if anyone has seen Saber [a beat]--the polite and reserved Saber I mean, and Alice, could you kindly tell them to come home? Well, not home I suppose [these sudden familial feelings are really weird], but room 306 at the Bay View Hotel. It'd be improper for them to stay out so late, and I would rather like to eat a good dinner together with my daughters. Alice, Saber, if either of you hear this please come ho--to room 306 so that we may all eat together.

Of course, Archer and Sanaki are welcome to join us. [Though she doesn't bother specifying which Archer this time SURELY HE'LL FIGURE IT OUT BY HIMSELF.] Being able to eat and spend time with your siblings is always a wonderful thing to experience, yes? While I can't really say I recall ever having such a family, it certainly feels like I do, and who would I be to deny such a thing.

[It's V/V with her guitar again. She strums a little while deciding what to say.]

Gilgamesh, I practiced something for you. I didn't find a lot that I could learn from, so I hope this is good...

[She starts to play and sing, a sweet, reverent melody. The words she's singing aren't easily understandable... To all but those who know Babylonian, of course. Gilgamesh's name might be able to be picked out a few times, though.

When she stops, she looks hesitantly at the camera.] ...Did you like that?
