School Daze is a project in line with Emiya Quest and so on, a dynamic, continuous work where the players are the readers.
The premise of the story is as follows. The characters of Type Moon (in addition to canon, this also includes fan books, original characters, alternate interpretations and the like) wake up in a school with amnesia, only aware of their first names.
The readers can direct whichever character is currently the focus to act, they may also speak to them directly. The characters react as themselves for the most part, so ordering actions or explaining thoughtlessly might cause the characters to distrust a reader.
The rules of the work are as follows:
1) The rules are not up for debate.
2) Violation of the rules is immediate grounds for expulsion from activity in the project and, at my discretion, further projects.
3) Be respectful of others. No hate speech, verbal violence, trolling or intentionally ruining the goals of others pointlessly.
4) No complaints about character interpretations or alternate versions.
5) No complaints about the nature of the characters when they rediscover their memories.
6) This work is for fun, take it easy.
7) If conflicts occur in directions, I will resolve them.
8) Orders or other communications will not be accepted without prefixes. Use "Speak to" in the case of addressing the character and "Act" for actions.
9) Due to the continuous nature of the work, it will be largely unedited. There will be no complaining about this.
10) Lemon content will be edited and in placed a sub thread for time.
11) No Yaoi or Loli stuff.
Story starts here:
Shirou wakes up in a courtyard
-
Act: Look around
-
The courtyard is a small enclosed area with windows revealing hallways in a larger building. The sky is a clear blue but somehow still hazy.
-
Act: look for a door into the building.
-
There are three doors leading into the building. With Shirou's position as facing North there's a door west and South as well as a service door east.
-
Speak to: Can you see what is behind the doors?
-
Shirou answers " No, they are solid doors"
-
Speak to: Can you see anything through nearby windows?
-
Shirou answers "Nothing of interest"
-
Act: open the south door
-
Shirou grasps the handles of the south entrance's double doors and pulls them open. Entering the room on the other side Shirou finds an art room with a blonde man painting a blonde woman in strange red dressing. The man's brow furrows as the model for the painting moves complaining about the light and starts berating the artist.
-
Speak to: Do you recognise them?
-
Shirou answers "The blonde woman seems familiar maybe but the blonde man I've never seen"
-
Act: Ask who they are
-
Shirou introduces himself and the man introduces himself as Satoshi while the woman introduces herself as Nero
-
Act: Apologise for disturbing them and leave them to continue their painting. Exit through the door he came in by.
-
Shirou excuses himself with an apology and returns to the courtyard.
-
Act: Open the East door
-
Opening the East door Shirou finds himself in a machine shop. There two women are messing with the insides of a mechanical maid. Both have red head but one strikingly has bright amber eyes and her companion's hair seems dyed.
-
Speak to: Do you know them?
-
Shirou "No, never met either of them"
-
Act: Introduce yourself and ask who they are and what they're doing.
-
Shirou introduces himself and the dyed woman identifies herself as Touko. The Amber eyed girl doesn't reply and appears to be vested in her work.
Touko explains they are trying to fix the robot maid.
-
Act: Ask her what the maid is for
-
Touko doesn't know and Shirou gets no response from the other girl when he asks.
-
Act: Apologise to them for intruding and leave the girl to it, for now at least. Return back through the door you came in by.
-
Shirou apologizes and returns to the courtyard
-
Act: Open the west door
-
Opening the west door Shirou finds himself in a long hallway with two exits, one leading up and the other leading down
-
Act: Go through the downwards exit.
-
Heading downstairs Shirou finds several people in a common room, four blonde women, a blonde man, a white haired man and two white haired girls that look like sisters.
-
Act: Ask who they are
-
The four blondes introduce themselves as Saber, Lily, Alter and Mordred, the blonde man arrogantly says he's the king of heroes, Gilgamesh. The younger white haired girl is called Ilya while the other white haired girl and the man both claim to have no memory.
-
Act: Ask what they are doing.
-
Shirou asks and they all explain they just arrived themselves.
-
Act: Introduce himself and check the room for exits.
-
Shirou introduces himself. The room has four exits not including the entrance Shirou used.
-
Act: Check out each exit and see where they lead.
-
Each exit has windows and leads into a different hallway. North, south East and west
-
Speak to: Can you see anything through the windows? Also, which exit did you enter through?
-
Shirou answers "Nothing identifiable. I entered through those double doors in the south east corner"
-
Act: Tell the others that he is going to explore further, and ask if they wish to come with him. Then, go out through the south exit.
-
Shirou asks if the others want to come exploring, the blonde Lily accepts.
heading through the south exit they are greeted with the sounds of clashing metal.
(Update, Lily has joined the party, you may now speak to Lily but cannot direct her)
-
Act: Investigate the sounds.
-
Shirou investigates the sounds, suddenly he's struck from behind and loses consciousness.
with Shirou incapacitated for the moment the leader must change, to Elect a character say Elect and then name them. You may only elect revealed characters.
-
Elect: Satoshi
-
Satoshi is the current leader, you may now speak to or direct Satoshi.
-
Speak to: Satoshi, where are you and what are you currently doing?
-
Satoshi answers "I'm in hell entertaining a harpy, unless that wasn't metaphysical. In that case I'm in the art room attempting to paint the world's most critical subject."
-
Speak to: Is there a way you can get out of this? You need to do some exploring....
-
Satoshi proceeds to up end the canvas through the window and exits into the court yard. "TO ADVENTURE!" he declares.
-
Speak to: Go through the door to the west.
-
Satoshi replies "What's there?"
-
Speak to: A corridor leading to other rooms.
-
Satoshi " Ok, but why there? I mean, what's there to do?"
-
Speak to: Explore so you can find things to do....
-
Satoshi answers "Yeah, ok, but what about all the other doors? I was only in that art room"
-
Speak to: Well, you can't explore them all at the same time. The other door in the courtyard leads to another room, but there's nothing of urgency going on there, so right now you need to explore the rest of the building.
-
Satoshi shrugs and enters west door finding stairs up and down.
Satoshi "Ok, where to now?"
-
Act: head upstairs.
-
Satoshi heads upstairs finding over two dozen people in a cafeteria area without a door, the corridor continues to another door at the end of the hall.
-
Speak to: Can you describe the people?
-
Satoshi replies "Not individually, we'd be here all day. There's a lot of girls in general but six groups in all. One group looks like a drama club from their weird costumes, another bunch are in uniform, must be students I guess, a priest and some other older gentleman. A crew working the cafeteria itself, a group dressed in suits chatting and finally some guy in a kamen Rider looking outfit, whoever that is"
-
Speak to: Do any of them have purple hair?
-
Satoshi "I don't know about the masked guy but there's a purple haired person in every group but the priest's"
-
Speak to: Can you describe the purple-haired girls, and which group each one is in?
-
Satoshi "A woman with purple hair and a white dress is in the drama group, there's another in the suits group with a fairly strong set of cheeks, there's one in the student group with a braid and I can't tell about the gender of the last person since I only get vague glimpses from here"
-
Speak to: Can you describe the girl in the drama group better? What is her hair like, is it long? Does it have a ribbon in it?
-
Satoshi "Pretty long, I can only see it from the back, but no ribbon there. What's the thing with the purple? Are we identifying a presidential assassin?"
-
Speak to: How long, exactly?
As for the thing with purple, I'm just looking for people I might know, and purple hair is rather distinctive.
-
Satoshi "Around the small of her back, so who are you exactly that you know people?"
-
Speak to: It's difficult to explain. I just know about you from a story I've read. Anyway, can you go up to that girl and ask her who she is?
-
Satoshi raises an eyebrow "Ok, three things, first off, I feel for some reason that I should be mad at that idea of a story, dunno why but there it is. Secondly I feel maybe being driven around by a mysterious voice without a name is a bit off putting, I mostly agreed to get away from that harpy Nero. And finally I'm having memory trouble, mind telling me what you know about me?"
-
Speak to: Well, my name is Mike, if that helps. As for what I know about you, your name is Emiya Satoshi, and you're the son of Saber (who is really a female version of King Arthur) and Emiya Shirou (a Japanese man who can use magic). I know a lot more, but giving you a full explanation of how you came about would take a very long time.
-
Satoshi "Ok so, I buy the half Japanese thing and maybe even the Japanese guy doing stage magic but female king Arthur, I mean Arthur Pendragon, wielder of Excalibur, king of Camelot being a woman is absurd"
-
Speak to: Yes, it is absurd, but in your universe at least it is nevertheless true. And, it's not "stage magic", it's real. And, you can do magic as well.
-
Satoshi "Right, and my teacher is Merlin, this school is magic and I'm the head of this place and a legendary hero who can shoot fire and lighting from his ass all well making terrible puns and having women fall over and beat each other for a taste of my dick"
-
Speak to: Well, Merlin does teach you, yes. As for the rest, I don't have a clue what the nature of the school is or your role within it, and the other stuff is obviously just you being silly.
-
Satoshi "I'm not believing the magic bit until I get proof but I applaud your commitment. Now explain this purple girl, what's the details?"
-
Speak to: Well, I don't know for sure yet, but she's a friend of yours, I think.
-
Satoshi "Um what? You were asking for details but you don't know her? Are you messing with me?"
-
Speak to: I think I know her, but I can't be sure without more details. Your descriptions are not precise enough to be certain who she is.
-
Satoshi " Well, no, they aren't because I'm standing thirty feet away and she isn't facing me. But I meant that you asked for a specific detail so you must know who you are looking for."
-
Speak to: Well, there are several people with purple hair who I'm looking for. One is called Rider and the other is called Sakura, and both are good friends of yours. Based on the description, I think it might be Sakura, but I'm not sure.
-
Satoshi "I see, Sakura seems like an important name. So you want I should walk up to that girl and ask her name?"
-
Speak to: Yes, that's what I'd like you to do.
-
Satoshi walks up to the woman in the dress and asks her name, the woman turns to reveal a blonde top and red and blue bangs in addition to the purple back hair. She says her name is Sheila Marie. She appears scarred lightly and has stitch marks at her wrist and forearm as well as a neck brace seemingly made of iron bolts or screws. She appears to carry a strange spear.
-
Speak to: OK, that's obviously not her. I'm not even sure who that is. I think it's probably worth checking out the other purple-haired person who you saw but couldn't describe. I'm pretty sure that the one with the Braid and the one with a suit are not her.
-
Satoshi shrugs "Ok" excusing himself Satoshi goes into the cafeteria back area, the woman appears to be washing dishes. She has long hair and a single bow in it at the end.
"That her Mike?" he asks.
-
Speak to: Yeah, I think so. A red bow?
-
Satoshi "Purple, are you even allowed to work in a kitchen with hair that long? I mean it's basically touching the floor"
-
Speak to: Ah, OK, then I think that is Rider, not Sakura. Why don't you introduce herself and check who she is?
-
Satoshi introduces himself and the woman replies by introducing herself as Medusa.
Satoshi "Sorry there chief, looks like this isn't the person you're looking for"
-
Speak to: No, it is. Rider is just a code name she goes by, her real name is Medusa.
-
Satoshi "She's a spy? Who names a woman after a monster from Greek myth?"
-
Speak to: Well, sort-of. She works for someone who was an enemy of your mother. She's not a bad person, but you should definitely take her with you and keep a close eye on her, maybe interrogate her later.
Act: Look at the girl's body more closely.
-
The woman appears to be five foot ten inches wearing a traditional Japanese set of clothes and platform shoes. She wears glasses revealing her lavender eyes which have odd pupils. Her figure is mostly hidden but her chest is obviously fairly big given her attire.
Satoshi "Take her with me? How exactly should I do that Mike?"
-
Speak to: Well, asking her would be a start. If she refuses, then we'll have to think of something.
-
Satoshi asks Medusa to come with him, she responds with a simple why.
-
Act: Tell her that you want her to help search for some mutual friends of yours who have gotten lost, like Sakura and your mother, Arturia Pendragon.
-
Satoshi twitches and delivers the message. Medusa stares at him. "Then you remember more than your name?" she asks.
Satoshi "Dude, what do I do now? Kinda sorta just lied"
-
Speak to: Not really, you will be going looking for them in a minute, and her help would be very useful. Perhaps she's being overly suspicious, though, if you can't convince her then you'll have to capture and interrogate her later.
-
Satoshi "You just had me, I dunno how, tell her I know who my mother is, I don't, that's lying. For that matter if Pendragon is my mother then that means I have brother in Mordred."
-
Speak to: Nothing in what you just said was a lie. I said that your mother was Arturia Pendragon, not that you knew that....
-
Satoshi "Still it's implied I do, and seriously, not telling me my brother is a traitorous murderer is not cool, what if he rolled up and stabbed me? Oh, I have broth-urk bleed, dead, come on"
-
Speak to: Sister, actually. And, well, I did tell you your mother was Arturia Pendragon, so why didn't you work it out before. Plus, there's no reason for her to come after you, and if you see her I'd point her out.
As for the "lie" thing, yes, I guess you're right that it does look that way, but what you said was true, and I thought she might accept you better if you mentioned your mother. Plus, I don't recall you telling her you'd lost your memory....
-
Satoshi "Sister? That makes no sense, as for memory, it's clear that multiple people have lost them. Medusa has been will a group this whole time and Nero was like me."
-
Speak to: Well, it makes as much sense as King Arthur being female. It's just true.
And, it's possible she has lost her memory, I don't know. She might be faking it....
-
Satoshi "Would Medusa fake it? More importantly, would I really be friends with someone who would do that?"
-
Speak to: She is very loyal to her master, if she thought it would protect her master to do so, then she would. Her master is your friend usually, but in this situation Rider may not be sure of that. You need to question her further to find out her motives.
-
Satoshi "How? I mean what do I say? Also, seriously who names a girl Medusa? You're basically deciding that her childhood needs to suck, Medusa was a monster after all"
-
Speak to: I'm not sure. Like I said, you might need to capture and question her later.
As for her name, well, it's not that simple. She's not named after Medusa, she is Medusa. That's why her eyes look so odd. If she wasn't wearing those special magical glasses, she could turn most of the people here to stone. You're immune to it, though, at least mostly. All she can do is slow you down a little.
-
Satoshi "Capture and Question? That would be kinda, unfriendly? Or I guess really friendly depending on context, although judging by what you have said we aren't like that. Although that's Medusa? I see no snakes or scales..."
-
Speak to: Well, I don't actually know for sure, I don't know exactly what timeline you're from, but she is someone who you often do end up in a relationship with. Plus, she's really into that sort of thing. She might even be trying to goad you into it. I certainly suspect that she would find being captured and interrogated rather a turn-on, at the very least.
And, yeah, she's Medusa, just in her more human form, before she was cursed.
-
Satoshi "Timeline? What are you on about? Isn't it weird I would end up,with someone as old as my mother? Isn't that thing a mutual interest thing? I don't think I'm into that stuff so really I'm not sure I believe your claim. And human form? Then why can she turn people to stone?"
-
Speak to: Well, I don't know your exact past, I only know the basic concept of where you come from and how some of your history goes. And, well, you definitely are into that sort of stuff, I've seen you do it plenty of times.
As for her age, she's not really human, so I don't think age means anything to her. She never grows old or anything like that. And her human form just means she looks like a human and not like a monster. The ability to turn people to stone is something she was born with, I think.
-
Satoshi "I what? You've seen me with who the what? Not human? And seriously with the who did I do what exactly? I wind up with an immortal? And seriously I'm a sadomasochist? That just feels creepy"
-
Speak to: You've done loads of S&M stuff, mostly with Rider but also with others. Really rough stuff, too. You really do enjoy it. And, I don't see how it's "creepy", it's just something you enjoy doing.
-
Satoshi "it's hurting people, the idea of hurting people disturbs me"
-
Speak to: Well, OK, but surely you can accept hurting people for a good cause or because they actually want it? I mean, if someone attacked you, you'd defend yourself, right?
-
Satoshi "Good cause yes, self defense sure but I don't get the wanting it bit, I mean sure that's a thing but I don't think I'm that kinda guy, I just don't feel like that's a thing I'd do."
-
Speak to: Well, you dom't have to enjoy receiving pain, just giving it. Rider definitely enjoys receiving, and from what I've seen of you you do enjoy giving it.
-
Satoshi "That doesn't sound like me, sorry but I don't think I enjoy hurting others"
-
Act: Tell her that your memory is very foggy, but you do remember that she is your friend, as is her master Sakura, and that if she remembered anything herself she would definitely want to help you find Sakura.
-
Satoshi delivers the message and Rider blinks hard.
"I see..." she says, stepping away from the food station she nods.
(Rider has now joined your party, you may speak to Rider)
-
Speak to Rider: So, do you remember anything about your master?
-
Rider: "I have no such thing, who are you exactly?"
-
Speak to Rider: My name is Mike. I have knowledge of who you are. You do have a master, her name is Sakura. You dearly love her, and would do anything to protect her.
-
Rider "I do not feel as if I am a servant, regardless of other facts Mike."
-
Speak to Rider: You're not a servant in the traditional sense, no. Sakura is your master, but there's no payment involved, nor any kind of compulsion or coercion. You serve and protect her solely out of love.
-
Rider "That makes very little sense, besides that, I have no skills relating to servant hood"
-
Speak to Rider: You aren't a domestic servant, you're a hero who fights for and protects Sakura. You lived and died in ancient times, but she summoned you using magic to fight in a war, and you survived that war and decided to remain with her because you loved her and wanted to protect her. As for the "master" thing, well, that is a relic of the system for the war you fought in. The summoners are called "masters", and the summoned are called "servants". It does somewhat imply servitude to the summoner, but not in the traditional sense, and Sakura isn't the sort of person who enforces servitude.
Plus, there is another reason for her being called your "master". I'm not absolutely sure where in your life you came from, but I think the two of you may have ended up in a sexual relationship with each other, and that relationship involves a lot of domination, bondage and hard S&M play. Hence the "master"stuff, although you take it in turns to dom.
-
Rider "That sounds rather suspect, I'm no hero or warrior, not sure about the rest"
-
Speak to Rider: You're not particularly a warrior, no, but you are still extremely powerful, and very protective of your master. For instance, have you not noticed the power you have in your eyes? If you removed the glasses you are wearing, you would turn most of the people in the room into stone.
-
Rider raises an eyebrow and reaches for her glasses as she looks at the crowd.
-
Speak to Rider: No! You have no idea who those people even are, you shouldn't turn them to stone.
-
Rider smiles "Had you reacted any other way I would have ignored you, now, tell me. Without exaggeration of details or opinions you hold, who am I? And who, is this young man?"
-
Speak to Rider: You are Medusa, the legendary Gorgon. Your master, Sakura, was forced by her monstrous grandfather, Zouken, to summon you in order to fight in a war over a wish-granting machine that they call the "Holy Grail", and you accepted her summons because you wanted to protect her and prevent her becoming a monster like you had. The stuff I said about you loving her is entirely true, you would do absolutely anything to protect her, even sometimes things that she herself would not want you to do.
I am unsure exactly how your life has gone after your summoning, there are many different possibilities and I am unsure which one your life followed. However, since you seem to have survived the war, it seems highly likely that your master was freed from Zouken's control and you decided to live with her.
As for Satoshi, he is the son of a very close friend of your master, so close that they are basically family. In his universe, you and Sakura live together in a seperate building on their property.
-
Rider "I see, well that doesn't answer my question about the young man"
-
Speak to Rider: Then what, exactly, do you want to know about him?
-
Rider "Who he is, beyond something you would find on Wikipedia, there has to be details"
-
Speak to Rider: It's difficult to explain because you don't have any context, and I'm not sure what sort of information you're even after. Can you please explain more what sort of thing you want to know?
-
Rider "You've given me pedestrian information Mike, anyone can know those things, personal information is what I'm after"
-
Speak to Rider: What sort of "personal information"? I don't understand what you're asking for here.
-
Rider "Anything people who know him personally should know, weaknesses, likes, dislikes, relationships, anything"
-
Speak to Rider: Well, his parents are Emiya Shirou, a Japanese man who is your master's friend and Saber, who is actually King Arturia Pendragon, a female version of King Arthur. He's extremely powerful and essentially immortal due to possessing the sheath to his mother's sword. I know he's a big fan of Dr Who, other than that I'm not sure what else to say. I don't know as much about him as I would like, and I certainly am not sure who he is in a relationship with. It is possible that he is in one with you and Sakura, though. I talked to him before, but he can't remember anything either.
-
Rider "He's an immortal with a sexual attraction to me?"
-
Speak to Rider: Yes, in fact he has a massive crush on you. But, then, you are extremely beautiful, so I am not particularly surprised at that....
-
Rider "Hmmm, thank you Mike, I think I have the information I need"
-
Speak to Rider: Hmm, information for what? Are you interested in Satoshi?
-
Rider "Many things, interested, yes you could say that"
-
Speak to Rider: Interested in what sense? I've been helping you out here, I would like to know a bit more about what you're intending.
-
Rider "Oh, generally interested, I'm not intending anything, I'm assessing the situation"
-
Speak to Rider, Satoshi: OK, we need to start looking for Sakura. I don't believe she's in any of these groups, but we should probably check anyway. Even if we don't find Sakura, we might find a few more people to join us.
-
Satoshi "By your description earlier no one is Sakura here, is there anyone else in particular we should get to join us?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, Rin would be good if we can find her. She's Sakura's sister, and she has black hair, most likely with twin ponytails. But, honestly, just about anyone will be helpful, and I can tell you if they're someone we're better off avoiding.
As for Sakura, I agree that she is almost certainly not here, but it's possible that one of us missed something, so it's worth checking just in case.
-
Satoshi "Aquamarine eyes, plastic smile and no real chest to speak of?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: That sounds like it might be right, yeah, although her breasts are by no means the smallest I've seen....
-
Satoshi "Well, compared to the present company I meant. There's a girl like that in the student group, well, two but the other is a blonde"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, yes, OK, but just about anyone has "no chest to speak of" when compared to the present company....
Anyway, we should talk to them. Firstly, though, since we're here, who else is working in the cafeteria?
Speak to Rider: Do you know any of the other cafeteria workers? If you do, could you please tell me as much as you can about them?
-
Satoshi "Several people I know would trounce the present company and two could make her cry."
Rider "Six workers, a blonde boy with a high attitude towards himself, a pink haired woman named Amateratsu I believe, a wrinkled old man who creeps me out, a red haired maid girl, a blue haired girl in glasses who seems more interested in eating the food than serving it and another blue haired woman who seems clumsy at best"
-
Speak to Rider: OK, can you describe the old man better? If he's who I fear he is, then the correct response is to exterminate him on sight, because he is pure evil.
As for the rest, are there any of them you would like to ask to come with us?
-
Rider "Must I? Not to be vain but he is disturbing, his eyes are a foggy greyish white and the whites of his eyes are a mutant black. He unnerves me, especially his talk about bugs in food preparation or as a meal themselves. As for asking the others, I have no personal desire to ask them to come with us"
-
Speak to Rider: Yeah, that's the guy I was thinking of. His name is Zouken, and he is absolutely vile. He tortured and sexually abused your master, Sakura, for eleven years from when she was a very young child, and treated her as nothing more than a tool. Further, he can only survive by killing others. He should be killed as soon as possible.
As for the rest, I think the one called Amateratsu might be worth asking to come along. What do you think?
-
Rider steps out of her shoes, shuffles over and stabs herself in the neck, a moment later a symbol appears and in an instant she, Zouken and the entire side of the kitchen area are gone. The ground has a long strip taken out of it.
(Rider has temporarily left the group)
(Rider has regained part of her memory)
-
Speak to Satoshi: OK, well, it might be worth asking the pink-haired woman if she wants to join you, otherwise let's go off and talk to Rin.
-
Satoshi "The fox girl? Does she have special powers too?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Yeah, she's a powerful magician. A goddess, even. She's really nice, though, and extremely loyal.
-
Satoshi "Which goddess?"
-
Speak to: Amateratsu, I believe. That is the name Rider said she went by, at least.
-
Satoshi keels over barely holding himself up.
-
Speak to Satoshi: What's wrong?
-
Satoshi clutches his head "Grass cutting? What the hell does mowing lawns have to do with anything?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: What is going on?
-
Satoshi struggles over to a sink and vomits "No idea, somethin bout a big snake thing and her and a sword that cuts grass."
-
Speak to Satoshi: Oh, right, I think that's her legend. Where are you getting all of this from?
-
Satoshi "My face, brain, thing...whatcha call it? Flashes and nonsense"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Ah, OK, you must be having flashes of her past for some reason.
-
Satoshi "Last I checked Oorochi was killed by a Samurai, not a fox tailed Amateratsu on a snow capped mountain"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Yeah, I'm not sure why she's going by that name either. Thinking about it, I always thought she was called Tamano.
-
Satoshi "pretty sure that's my history, not hers"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Really? I hadn't seen that part of your story....
-
Satoshi "Samurai aren't usually associated with canes and suits, guess I'm older than I look"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Yeah, you might well be. I don't know when in your timeline you are from, but I know you do live thousands of years. You have your mother's scabbard inside you, which makes you essentially immortal.
-
Satoshi "Slightly more inclined to believe you, not there yet."
-
Act: Introduce yourself to the pink-haired girl.
-
The girl bows and introduces herself as Tamano
-
Act: Ask her if she'd like to come with you.
-
Tamano nods
(Tamano has joined the group)
(You may speak to Tamano, Tamano has magic abilities available)
-
Speak to Tamano: So, how much do you remember of who you are? Also, what magic abilities do you have?
-
Tamano "To whom am I speaking?"
-
Speak to Tamano: My name is Mike, I'm here to try to help you.
-
Tamano "Well to answer the first, everything."
-
Speak to Tamano: Hmm, interesting, most people have forgotten their memory. Also, Medusa said you claimed to be Amateratsu when you spoke to her, any reason for that?
-
Tamano "Perhaps because I am a divine entity I cannot lose my memory. As for Medusa, she was cursed by the gods, perhaps as a result she can recognize gods on sight."
-
Speak to Tamano: Yeah, both of those are possible. Anyway, what magical powers do you have? It would be useful to know.
-
Tamano "I believe it would be more useful to ask when a situation presents itself, Satoshi already appears somewhat bored and listing all my spells would take days."
-
Speak to Tamano: Well, OK....
Act: Go over to the school group and introduce yourself.
-
The school group introduces themselves. The group includes Ayako, Two Rins, one blonde, the other with black hair, Hakuno, Sion, Satsuki and Ciel.
-
Speak to Satoshi: OK, well, it might be a good idea to recruit all of them, but the two Rins would be priority. Ayako is also pretty good.
-
Satoshi "Ok how? Because every time we try this something happens, we need a plan"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, it worked out fine with Tamano, and it worked out perfectly well with Rider, too, she just remembered a chunk of her past and gave an extremely evil old man an extremely-well-deserved-but-somewhat-too-quick death....
-
Satoshi "So, what? I just ask the school girls to come with me?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, I'm not sure how else to do it.
-
Satoshi shrugs "Hiya, would any of you care to come with us?"
the girls start chattering amongst themselves, Rin (Blonde) Hakuno, Ciel and Sion come along.
(Extra Rin has joined the party, Hakuno has joined the party, Ciel has Joined the party, Sion has joined the party, you may now speak to these characters)
-
Speak to Satoshi: OK, we should also try to get the brunette Rin, Sakura's sister. Tell her you're looking for her little sister.
Speak to Extra Rin, Hakuno, Ciel, Sion: Hi girls. My name is Mike, I'm here to help and guide you. What do you remember about yourselves?
-
Satoshi "that woman has black hair, black, sides I think she won't come given the discussion"
girls "Hello Mike, nothing but our names"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Why do you think she won't come?
-
Satoshi "Hard to say, partly because they are sort of doppelgangers and need space apart I guess, twins are like that sometimes. And possibly because they are working together to figure out as much as they can. Or it could be the fashion thing"
-
Speak to Rin: They're not twins, though. They're related, but the blonde Rin is actually the black-haired Rin's half-niece. And, she definitely should help look for her sister.
-
Rin "I'm what exactly?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: They're not twins, though. They're related, but the blonde Rin is actually the black-haired Rin's half-niece. And, she definitely should help look for her sister.
Speak to Rin: Oops, sorry, I wasn't meant to be talking to you. But, yeah, the dark-haired Rin is your half-aunt. One of your parents was her half-sister. I don't think she would really know you, though, you rarely if ever met, and you only met her as a child. I think you were impressed by her, though, because you used her dress code and hairstyle.
-
Satoshi "Hmm, ok, the black hair not coming makes sense now. She probably thinks the blonde is a slut"
Rin "we're the same age..."
-
Speak to Satoshi: Why? And, why should that stop her coming to look for her little sister?
Speak to Rin: Yeah, it's complicated. You originally came from different worlds and different times. The black-haired Rin that you were talking to is from a world that developed differently from your own, and is from 20 or so years before you.
-
Satoshi "High heels and an ass window on a skirt would make anyone look kinda slutty, the ass window on Nero was the same but the leggings countered it, of course her breasts and panty window reaffirmed it as provocative again. Well I think they just want time apart, I've spent time with myself, it gets grating."
Rin "Sounds like nonsense but then she didn't understand the school and I have a nine millimeter hand gun"
-
Speak to Satoshi: They're not the same person, though. They just happen to share a name and appearance. And, we really should try to get the other Rin, she needs to help look for her sister.
Speak to Rin: What do you mean, "she didn't understand the school"? And, yeah, she wouldn't use a gun, she has magical abilities.
-
Satoshi "Eh, I dunno if I buy that, the blonde has an appearance that screams porn star or escort at the end of the night, I don't think I can convince the black haired one to come along"
Rin "it's a virtual environment"
-
Speak to Satoshi: You still should try, it's important.
Speak to Rin: This school is? Are you sure?
-
Satoshi."Not savvy boss, I don't know thing one about this girl"
Rin "The sky is made of binary data, what else would it be if not a virtual environment?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: No, true, but I certainly do. Her name is Rin Tohsaka, and she should have a magic crest on her arm that she uses to perform magic.
Speak to Rin: I guess that makes sense. The other Rin is not exactly computer-literate, though....
-
Satoshi "That helps me convince her how exactly?"
Rin "Doesn't that just add to the idea of me being right? Her lack of literacy and lack of knowledge make sense"
-
Speak to Rin: I'm not denying that you're right. I was simply not aware of the nature of the sky before.
Speak to Satoshi: Well, it's a start. I don't really know what you want to know from me. I know a lot about her, but I'd be here all day if I told you everything.
-
Rin "Well now you know"
Satoshi "Generally people are more likely to help you went they are in a good mood and get something out of it"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, yes. The first I can't do much about, but in terms of the second, she gets to find her little sister, and learn more about who she is.
-
Satoshi "You can talk all day but you can't tell me what she likes? As for the second bit, well I just saw Medusa bust down a wall, and I'm still skeptical. Doubt Rin will believe without proof"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, she definitely likes gems, she uses them for her magic. Other than that, I'm not sure what I'd say she "likes". Her sister, possibly, and also her servant Archer and Emiya Shirou (who are actually both the same person...).
-
Satoshi "Um, what?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: What do you mean, "what"?
-
Satoshi "Same guy, what? And I'm Emiya..."
-
Speak to Satoshi: Yeah, that's because Shirou is your dad. And, Archer is an alternate form of him who became a hero in somewhat not-nice circumstances. Rin summoned him in the Grail war as her servant, and is obviously therefore attached to that version. She also likes the other version.
-
Satoshi "I what and Rin...ewww, I don't want to know about my dad's sex life, Jesus what kinda dad do I have that he double teams a girl that young with himself?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: What do you mean, "double-teams her"? I never said such a thing, and nor, for that matter, did I say anything about your Dad's sex life....
-
Satoshi "You said she likes them both and is attached. My mistake..."
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, she does like both, but which one (if either) she ends up with depends a lot on the timeline. Some versions of her end up with your father, but the version in your universe ended up with Archer.
-
Satoshi "Ok, then what is she to me then?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, in your universe you see her as your Aunt, but I'm pretty sure this version is not from your universe, because she's a lot younger than the Rin you know.
-
Satoshi "Right, ok, then hitting on the pretty girl is no, got it"
-
Speak to Satoshi: There's no reason why you can't hit on her, really. You're not blood relatives and she probably wouldn't even know you. But, if you'd find it weird then I guess you probably shouldn't....
-
Satoshi "Well I don't, I just though we were actually related, although considering the possibility that king, I screwed my sister, how does that work by the way, and produced a girl is my father mother this is perfectly ok on balance."
-
Speak to Satoshi: Honestly, I don't think you really want to know how Mordred came about....
And, no, you're not related. You just consider her an Aunt because she's married to an alternate version of your father, plus she is a close friend of your actual father.
-
Satoshi "Did Morrigan sacrifice babies to bring my sister into the world? Oh, am I related to Ciel?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: No, nothing like that, at least not as far as I know. And, no, you're not related to Ciel in any way.
-
Satoshi "Score! Hot girls with glasses are where it is at"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, OK, now can we get back to recruiting Rin?
-
Satoshi "Ok, but if you know about any other fine ladies you better spill. With Rin I don't have diamonds, so we'll have to find an Archer, where be him?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: I know of plenty of "fine ladies". Personally, I like Rider and Sakura the most, but I don't know if you'd agree. As for Archer, I don't know where he is. I've not seen him around just yet.
-
Satoshi. "Rider is Medusa, right? If so undecided, she is pleasant though. Dunno about Sakura yet, as for Archer well, I need diamonds or Archer. Without them I doubt Rin with come along."
-
Speak to Satoshi: Yeah, Rider is Medusa. And, Sakura you wouldn't know just yet, but she is very attractive. As for Rin, maybe she won't, but can't you try talking to her? Maybe tell her that Sakura might have some gems. And, mention the sister thing....
-
Satoshi "Neat, well speaking on a physical level Rider is a mystery, she has big...opinions at least. The gem thing is, well we need money or I have a feeling I'm going to get an earful from her for lying"
-
Speak to Satoshi: I think you're over-estimating the money thing. Telling her that you want to find her sister would be a good start.
-
Satoshi."Dude, I don't think that'll work, I doubt she remembers she has one."
-
Speak to Satoshi: I doubt she remembers who Archer is, either. But, if we mention her sister then she might be more curious.
-
Satoshi shrugs and tells Rin the group is exploring and that they are looking for her sister.
Rin shrugs it off and goes back to conversing with those left until Sion grabs her.
"If you don't care then why are you crying?" she snaps shaking Rin hard as she shouts at her.
Rin doesn't answer at first.
"I, I don't know" she replies.
-
Speak to Sion: Eh, what's going on?
By the way, her sister is called Sakura, if it makes a difference. She has purple hair and eyes, and wears a red ribbon that was a gift from Rin when they were young in her hair. She was separated from Rin as a child and given to another family, but Rin always tried to watch over her. The other family didn't treat her well, though, so it's possible she's remembering something because of that.
-
Sion "She shrugged it off like it wasn't her problem, then she started tearing up. I'm, shaking her tree, I believe that is the right expression."
Satoshi sighs "Six or sixty she's the same on the inside memories or no. Freak out in three two..."
Rin pulls away holding her head muttering incoherently until she grasps Sion's wrists "Why!? Why did he take her!? W-why did I let him!? Where is she, where is Sakura?"
Satoshi nods "There we are"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Eh, what? I thought you had no memory of her....
Speak to Sion: Ask her what she's talking about. Why did who take her? And, tell her that we don't know where she is, but we're going to do everything we can to find her.
-
Satoshi "I have no memory of saying that"
Sion "I'll have to get back to you when she stops gibbering and shaking me like an unfit fit nanny."
Rin continues to scream attracting a crowd of looks.
-
Speak to Satoshi: You never said you didn't remember Rin, but you did ask me questions about her that implied you didn't....
Speak to Sion: Ah, I see....
-
Satoshi "Investigation is a thing Mike. Now I'm certain you're a real person"
Sion "Help me you ninny"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, I guess....
Speak to Sion: I'm not really sure what to do about it. Try telling her that we're looking for her sister and that she can join us if she wants.
-
Satoshi "Hey man, if even you aren't sure you're a real person maybe you should take a seat"
Sion "I meant Satoshi but he's just standing there"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Hey, don't you think you should give Sion a bit of help here?
-
Satoshi "I'm waiting for her to ask"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Erm, she just did....
-
Satoshi "No she didn't"
-
Speak to Satoshi: What? She said she'd asked you for help. Anyway, she does want you to help her.
Speak to Sion: What's going on here? Satoshi said he didn't hear what you said.
Satoshi can't hear anything you say to me, you need to speak out loud for him to hear it.
-
Satoshi separates the two girls and is pelted by blows from Rin.
Sion "Thought I did, correction made"
Rin exhausts herself and eventually the crowd stops paying attention.
(Rin has joined the group, Rin has regained her memory, you may now speak to Rin)
-
Speak to Rin: Who took Sakura, and what happened to her? Do you mean what Zouken did to her as a child, or is there something else beyond that?
-
Rin "Oh great, I've gone crazy"
-
Speak to Rin: No, you haven't. My name is Mike, I'm very definitely real and I'm here to help you. If you don't believe me, ask the others, they've been talking to me too.
-
Rin "Where are you?"
-
Speak to Rin: I'm in another dimension, I think. I'm not sure exactly how I can talk to you all, but I can.
-
Rin "I see...very well, hello Mike, I'm Tohsaka Rin"
-
Speak to Rin: Hi Rin, I'm Mike.
So, what do you know about Sakura? I know of what Zouken did to her, but I don't know exactly what, if anything, happened to her after that. When you were talking about someone taking Sakura, were you referring to Zouken, or has someone else kidnapped her? And, if you were referring to Zouken, has anything happened more recently?
-
Rin "You tell me why you're interested first, then I'll answer"
-
Speak to Rin: Because I care about Sakura and want to make sure she is safe. I can't do that unless I know what's happened to her.
-
Rin "They were just memories coming all at once, nothing recent"
-
Speak to Rin: Ah, OK. So, what do you know of Sakura? I'm guessing from your memories that you have discovered what Zouken did to her, do you remember her being rescued or anything like that?
-
Rin "I remember everything, right now though we need to find her period, not worry about the past. Emiya as well"
-
Speak to Rin: I only know how your life went up to the Grail War, beyond that point there are multiple possibilities. Knowing which one you have followed would be very helpful to me in working out what state Sakura might be in and so on. And, yes, we do need to find her, that was already my plan before we even talked to you. I'm not sure exactly where she is, but at very least Rider has gone looking for her.
-
Rin "It's not important, we need to find her before anything else."
-
Speak to Rin: Agreed, but talking about what you know doesn't delay us.
Act: Look around the room for exits.
-
Rin "I think it honestly does"
Satoshi points to the single exit where he came in.
-
Speak to Rin: It doesn't at all. I can talk whilst we're moving.
Act: Leave the room.
-
Rin points to the group as Satoshi leaves "You can, they can't"
-
Speak to Rin: But I don't need you to talk to them. I can talk to them.
Also, follow Satoshi, he's going looking for Sakura.
-
Rin "Talking wastes time and clearly Satoshi is fed up waiting and the other look bored as well, I'll follow him if only to get to work finally"
Satoshi exits into the hallway the group slowly behind him.
-
Speak to Rin: Satoshi moved because I asked him to move. We can talk whilst we're looking for Sakura.
Act: Look around the hallway for exits.
-
Satoshi finds two exits, the way he came and a door at the other end of the hall.
Rin "It's not important, just hurry"
-
Speak to Rin: I am hurrying, but I'd like to know what you know. I need more information to work out what to do.
Act: Go through the exit that has not been used before.
-
The exit leads to a walkway with a metal detector like device separating the two halves of the walk way.
Rin ignores futher discussion.
-
Act: Check out the metal-detector-like device more closely.
-
Within ten feet Satoshi is hit by a prismatic beam and slumps over after letting out a scream.
-
Speak to everyone: Do you have any idea what that might be?
-
Sion "prismatic security laser beam, someone doesn't want us going this way "
-
Speak to Sion: Any idea how to get past it?
-
Sion "No, not for the time being"
-
Speak to Rin: Do you have any way to get past or disable that thing? Sion says it's a prismatic security beam, and Sakura might be through there....
-
Rin "No, if I knew where it came from I might but I couldn't even see it till he was hit"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Are you OK?
-
Satoshi "Is blind rage ok?"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Not really....
Why do you feel rage?
-
Satoshi "Then I'm not ok"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Blind rage at what?
-
Satoshi "Sneak attack, no holding back when attacking, no consideration for collateral damage. Take your pick"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Who by? As far as I can tell, you were attacked by an automated defence system. Automated defences don't usually have a sense of honour....
-
Satoshi "could be several people"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Which people?
I'm trying to work out what's happening here, I could do with as much information as you can give. We need to bypass this.
-
Satoshi stands up and runs towards the middle of the walkway. Several more attacks occurs from thin air blowing Satoshi's arm off. Upon reaching the detector the attacks stop. Satoshi slumps over as the steel making up his arm regenerating.
-
Speak to Satoshi: What's going on? Why is your arm made of steel?
Speak to Rin: Did you see what happened there?
-
Satoshi "Is yours not?"
Rin "Someone was shooting through the veil"
-
Speak to Satoshi: No, that's not normal at all.
Speak to Rin: Veil?
-
Satoshi "Joking, that was a joke"
Rin "A pocket dimension I'd wager."
-
Speak to Satoshi: Well, OK....
Can you please answer the question, then?
Speak to Rin: Can you do anything to break into it?
-
Satoshi "Thought you knew the story"
Rin "No, seems Satoshi stopped it anyway"
-
Speak to Satoshi: What story? I know some of your life, I don't know everything, and I certainly don't remember you having a steel arm. Your father's body does produce swords to heal itself sometimes, but that isn't a genetic trait....
Speak to Rin: Do you think you can walk through there now, then?
-
Satoshi "Also invasive trait"
Rin "No, there's a screen of some kind in the middle of the metal detector, I would assume the machine is in off mode...or something"
-
Speak to Satoshi: What do you mean, "invasive trait"?
Speak to Rin: Well, can't you break through the screen?
-
Satoshi "Stop playing twenty damn questions while I'm in pain!"
Rin "I doubt it, it looks too thick, plus it appears to be attached to the machine"
-
Speak to Satoshi: Then actually answer my fucking questions in a useful manner so I can try to help....
Speak to Rin: Do you not have any gems on you, or other magic?
-
Satoshi "Get bent argh"
Rin "I'm worried that the machine is needed to cross and enter the other building"
-
Speak to Rin: OK, well, Satoshi is being an idiot, so I'm going to have to talk to you for the time being.
You might be right. Can you think of anything we might be able to do to activate it?
-
Rin "I'm not mechanically inclined, there's a panel with a keyboard though"
-
Speak to everyone: OK, is there anyone who thinks they could work the system to let us through?
-
Rin (blonde) "I can, looks like a basic terminal"
-
Speak to Rin (blonde): OK, can you hack in there and see if you can find anything out, and possibly open it? Getting a bit more information on what that thing is would be possibly useful.
-
Rin (Blonde) "It's a scanner, given that we all lost our memories we are likely patients. Or, possibly the people over there are the sick ones. As for hacking, if it were just a password sure, but it seems we need a card key"
-
Speak to Rin (blonde): What people "over there"? And, if it's a scanner, why is it blocking the route?
Also, can't you hack the machine to bypass the key card protocol?
-
Rin (blonde) "I assume there's people in that building. And No, I can't, it's used to activate the password entry system"
-
Speak to Rin (blonde): Well, then, what do you suggest we should do?
-
Rin (blonde) "gather more information, try to see if someone has a key card, ask Satoshi maybe now that is isn't screaming"
-
Speak to everyone: OK, the blonde Rin says that we need a key-card to get through that scanner. Does anyone have any ideas? Satoshi, do you have any ideas on what to do?
-
Satoshi "Find the key card and the guy or girl with it"
-
Speak to everyone: Does anyone have any idea who might have the key card?
-
The group collectively shakes their heads.
Sion "Maybe someone important, socially I mean"
-
Speak to Sion: What do you mean by "socially important"?
Speak to everyone: Well, perhaps we should go and look elsewhere for now. There might be someone else around with a key card.
-
Sion "A land owner, aristocrat or other such person"
-
Act: Look around for exits from the room.
-
The only exit is back the way the group has come
-
Act: Go back out through the exit and check the next room for more exits.
-
There are no exits save for the two present, the one leading to this area and the one to the walk way
-
Act: Head back to the walkway.
