arrival | open

Characters: Sakura Matou and YOU
Setting: Dorm Floors, Library, and Cafeteria though meeting her in between floors works as well.
Format: Action, while I can do prose it takes me longer
Summary: Sakura arrives, becomes confused, and then becomes even MORE confused after meeting the people she meets. And then she solves her problems with cooking. That's legit, right?
Warnings: None for the actual post but I know the thread between her and Rin is probably going to get violent. I'll add more if needed.

[Dormitory Floors]

[ After arriving and eating her god awful oatmeal, Sakura enters room 1-01 to find her things and take stock of everything that she's arrived with in her trunk. Not a lot, but it's still comforting to find that she has some things from home. After perhaps talking with a few roommates, she exits her room and wanders on the other dorm floors, mostly to try to find anyone she knows. Particularly Senpai, Nee-san, or Rider, but for some reason she has a feeling that they aren't here. ]

[Library]

[ While she's not a book worm by any means, she knows that being here without any knowledge is a bad idea. Sakura's a smart girl so she hits the books, trying to flip through and find any information about where she's stuck at.

Of course, she's not having much of any luck. ]

[Cafeteria]

[ After all of that, she decides to relax a bit by cooking a meal later in the day. Fried rice is on the menu, served over the best cuts of fish she could find in the Tower's stock with tons of veggies and other goodies stuffed into the rice. She's even cooked a sauce with a bit of spice to it to serve over it. She made enough for multiple people, and she doesn't particularly care who comes to eat, so feel free to serve yourself and join her for a meal. ]

Comments

We can agree on that for now.

[ She doesn't particularly agree with Archer being Rin's watchdog, but there's nothing she can do about it, much like she can't dismiss Saber even if she wanted to. ]

[scorchedchivalry]

[Saber just gives a nod. She didn't think Archer would be able to judge that properly, incapable of truly understanding what happened to Rin and what goes on inside her, but this was an acceptable compromise.]

[swordedpast]

[ He hesitates for a second. But that's all he needs to stomp down on the part of him that wants to reach out for help, to ask just how to make things better for Rin and the entire tower. The instant of uncertainty vanishes from his face, and he's cold again.

Archer nods once. Then he takes off down the hall. ]

[cherrygrail]

[ Once Archer is gone, Sakura relaxes a bit. ]

Saber, I... I tried.

[scorchedchivalry]

[Saber watches Archer leave and, once he's gone, she dismisses her armor and turned to her master.]

He is an idiot. [Once an idiot, always an idiot.] He realizes he cannot help her on his own and still thinks he can save her from herself. We both know how foolish that is.

[cherrygrail]

We do. I agree with you.

... I just wish I could have done more.

[scorchedchivalry]

In time, Sakura.

...I ask that you never allow yourself to be killed. Ever. I will overlook it this time.

[cherrygrail]

[ She was hoping that Saber hadn't caught that, looks like she didn't get so lucky this time. ]

I apologize for my shortcomings.

[scorchedchivalry]

Apology accepted. [This time.]
