[koncubine]

Characters: Caster and YOU!
Setting: Room 2-09, Cafeteria and Floor 10.
Format: Starting with action, but I'll match what you use.
Summary: A servant magical foxgirl has arrived! In costume and without her Master.
Warnings: Possible spoilers for the end of Fate/Extra.

[Room 2-09]

[When Caster wakes up, it's obvious from the start that she is not in the Moon Cell anymore. The paralysis is not normal, and if nothing else about the war was standard, freezing the Servants as they wake is not.

Though she will definitely dwell on it, doing so while laying around and doing nothing else is pointless. She sits up once the paralysis wears off, pulling at the costume she's been stuck in and glancing around.]

Hellooo? Is anyone in here? Masteeer?

[Cafeteria]

[Caster just stares at it, a disgusted look on her face. Really? This is what she's supposed to be eating? She'd rather eat the dubious candy laying all over the floors than this gross mess.]

Eugh. Doesn't this place have anything better? You steal my cute clothes and my Master, and you can't even give a lady something decent to eat! Some "rescue" group.

[Floor 10]

[Caster is wandering through the dry areas of the floor, running her hands through the water occasionally as she walks.]

Hmm-mm~. It's almost like the Moon Cell down here! The arena part, at least. I wonder how much experience you can get from beating these weaklings.

[A round mirror is floating around her in a circle, smacking wayward fish monsters down when they get too close. When they drop candy, she scoops a few pieces up and leaves the rest for others to grab.]

Eh... That's all? This isn't a decent item at all! Cheapskates.

Comments

[koncubine]

So, this is a kidnapping, then.

[She sighs.]

That's just my luck! Well, I'm sure I'll break out of here sooner or later. That, or I'll just run out of prana and vanish.

[fusedstars]

They seem to keep those they catch alive. It's debatable whether or not the world is destroyed, but for the time being, no one in this tower can fully die.

[He saw people he thought were dead come back after all.]

[koncubine]

Eh!? No dying?

[Definitely not another Holy Grail war, then, and not the Moon Cell, either. Not good.]

Ohh, this is just awful! I'm trapped, the food is terrible, and there isn't even anything to beat up to vent on! This place is the worst.

[fusedstars]

There are worse things than this tower.

[He should know. He was at such a place.]

[koncubine]

If it's enemies or monsters, they don't scare me. I'm muuuch tougher than I look. ♥

[fusedstars]

They tend to conduct tests, experiments of sorts, at random. Dealing with monsters is nothing compared to things such as that. A monster you can at least stop.

[koncubine]

Experiments?

[That's less manageable. A lot less.]

What kind of experiments?

[fusedstars]

Random it seems. They try to test not just physical limitations, but also ones that affect the psyche and mentality of their victims as well. Others make no sense though.

[Almost like that one movie series come to think of it.]

[koncubine]

With ideas like that, whoever is running this place must be a pretty twisted psychopath.

[This is about as disturbing as Lil Ronnie was.]

And nobody's beaten them yet? How long has this place been around?

[fusedstars]

Unfortunately, they are. Some may seem sane, but their actions speak otherwise. Nonetheless, the realm outside the tower can cause trouble to them as well, so there's another problem as well.

[He shakes his head.]

Unfortunately, I arrived months ago, and during an experiment at that. I'm still collecting information.

[koncubine]

The craziest people usually sound reasonable enough.

[Don't you sound experienced, Caster.]

So, we can't leave, we're in danger from monsters and tyrants, and there isn't much information around. What a well-organized trap they've made.

[fusedstars]

Every trap has a weakness. And with the threats outside the tower, it's clear they don't have a handle on everything, even if we are like this.

[koncubine]

Even so, keeping this many people trapped for this long... It's impressive.

[She hums for a moment.]

But you're right. The bigger they are, the harder they fall.

[fusedstars]

At any rate, you said you wished for food, right? Simply tell me after finishing the oatmeal. Only after eating that can you be able to eat anything else.

[koncubine]

Oh? Are you offering to make me something better?

[She grins and picks the spoon back up.]

What a gentleman.

[fusedstars]

I just prefer to make myself useful.

[koncubine]

Even so, such things are rare these days! It's a breath of fresh air to have someone offer that kind of thing.

[She nods as she begins to eat.]

Which means that I accept it, of course.

[fusedstars]

Very well. I'll be in the kitchen if you need me.

And my name is Hei.

[koncubine]

I'll remember that.

[She gives him a nod.]

You can call me Caster. ♥

[fusedstars]

[Hei gives a nod before going back into the kitchen to begin cooking again. Yes, he had recalled that name of the other Caster, but...no need to bring that up. Odds were someone else would anyway.]

[koncubine]

[She finishes the meal, though it's difficult to choke down, and wanders into the kitchen. She hasn't made a habit of eating food on a regular basis for a long time, so it's nice to taste these things again.]

Hello~? Hei?

[fusedstars]

Just in time, Caster.

[He points to the cooked food beside him. It was clear it had been freshly made, and the aroma was certainly quite tempting to even him.]

Assuming you prefer shark or deer meat at least.

[koncubine]

Shark meat? They have that here?

[Deer, she gets, but shark? That's gotta be an acquired taste. It smells good, though...]

Well, in any case, thank you for the meal!

[fusedstars]

There's an aquarium on one of the floors, but there is no glass. There are some fish that tend to attack, such as a shark. Because the food currently is mostly pumpkin flavored, I take it upon myself to hunt down animals and make the food since others may become sick of the food available right now.

And you're welcome.
