the world stopped turning after my fall
Characters: Archer/Gilgamesh [AU3] and you!
Setting: Dorm room 2-12 initially, then on to other floors
Format: Whatever you prefer
Summary: Newly arrived and quick to shirk heavy duty explanations and get down to the business of exploring. That's Archer for you.
Warnings: Arrogance and dangerousness if provoked. Typical Gilgamesh.
Dormitory 02-12
Waking up to the feeling of not being able to move was not a completely new experience to Gilgamesh, unfortunately enough. After all, it had not been that long ago that he had expended just about all of his prana and then been overtaken by Saber's Excalibur, and waking up from that feeling had not been fun at all.
But he did not remember falling asleep in a bed. Did he even make it to the couch? Either way, he was staring at a ceiling that was unfamiliar, and his head was cushioned in such a way that--
--Ah. And there was the ability to move again. His lips quirk into a frown as he sits up and stares at ... his clothes. What was this thing supposed to be? Whatever it was, he was better off without it, and so he immediately unzipped the skin-tight suit and began tugging the material off of his arms.
Depending on how long it takes for someone to discover the new resident of room 12 on floor 2, he may be stripped down to half-wearing the suit, not wearing the suit at all, or be in the process of changing into a pair of black pants and an orange v-neck shirt.
Various dormitory levels
After getting out of the dorm room, it's time to properly acclimate himself to his surroundings.
That means wandering around. Gilgamesh doesn't really glance at the nameplates as he goes along, instead focusing on how everything looks pretty much the same wherever he goes. Boring.
He can be seen looking at some of the network terminals as he goes along, though he's not yet to the point of actually operating them. Maybe later, after he's gotten a little bored of exploring by foot. On the dormitory first floor, he's even looking at the open elevator with mild curiosity. Because this floor numbering system is downright odd.
Floor 81
A fascinating display.
Gilgamesh cranes his head back as far as his neck allows, taking in the strange view of the tower that seemed to stretch onward beyond earth and the stars. Seated at the window and quiet in his musings, he wonders if this is a view like what the gods could see. Was this the empty space that Enki sliced through in its devastating drive towards earth?
The mere question sends him back to his battle with Saber, and he finds himself scolding Enki for having failed him at such a critical moment. Because muttering to yourself while staring into space is definitely not strange. (But muttering to a pair of golden swords really wouldn't be much better, anyway.)
Various first block floors
The very idea of exploring new surroundings seems to give energy to the golden-haired man's actions. While he has no set destination on any of the floors he visits, he looks confident; a sharp smile never seems too far away from his face. After puzzling out the elevator earlier, it seemed fitting to go out and actually look at some of the floors in between elevator-visited areas.

[It would probably be a little better if he actually sounded remorseful; instead, he sounds like it is more of an everyday occurrence.]
no subject
She didn't die! Saber hasn't died once! [As far as she knows anyway.] She's not here because... the administrators took her away. That's why...
no subject
The administrators?
no subject
The people who run this tower. A bunch of sadists.
no subject
Ah yes, the ones who supposedly deposited us here. If they are sadists, they must be idiots as well, to hold so many against their wills. To even think of subjecting me to their mind games is a folly they will regret.
no subject
[Hakuno isn't really a violent person or someone who would willingly hurt others, but she can't say she'd do anything if the others finally managed to get their hands on the administrators. Not after they took away someone so important to her...]
They're smart, though. They keep themselves hidden away. I don't think anyone's seen one of them face-to-face and be able to take advantage of it.
no subject
Is there any record of how long this has been happening? [The comparison to his Master made him wonder just how long these administrators could maintain that distance.]
no subject
I don't know. I've been here for... half a year now, I think. [Damn, has it really been that long...?] And there are people here who have been in the tower much longer than me. So that's... something, at least.
