THE FGO MEME
(aka the "I want to play in Fateverse but every time i try and keep the holy grail war rules straight in my head i just burst into tears" meme)

OPTIONS:

1. THE LAST MASTER OF CHALDEA!!!! listen, someone needs to be Gudako around here
2. Have your character summoned as a Heroic Spirit!!! You can either AU them as a specific mythological figure OR if you can fudge it, have your character themselves summoned as a Heroic Spirit! HOW EXCITING.
3. MAYBE A DEMI-SERVANT?? fgo isn't complete without kouhai

PROMPT IDEAS:

1. SLICE OF LIFE BULLSHIT IN CHALDEA. honestly keeping up with the chaldeans is a hit sitcom waiting to happen as it is.
2. SINGULARITY SHENANIGANS!! there's like, seven of them, go hog wild and have some adventures
3. oh i didn't think up enough to fill out this list. OH WELL.

THE LONG AND THE SHORT VERSION IS:

- Post a toplevel with the AU deets of your character and whatever you're hankering to play
- Tag around
- HAVE A GOOD TIME

[Foreigner or possibly Rider if you want her to have her Ride Viper. A weird... person? who appeared in an invasion of creatures from space (???), but was persuaded to defect to the side of good, bringing alien tech and/or magic with her. Now she just kind of loafs around being an inscrutable gremlin, fighting with laser pillars from nowhere and a bunch of attack drones she may or may not have stolen the blueprints for. She really just wants friends.

Also may or may not be able to turn into a giant eyeball. It's unclear.]

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

[This here is Servant Caster, Rita Mordio. A famed researcher of advanced technology who can pull off magic-like effects she calls 'Artes' with the aid of her blastia, she's usually in a few hundred books at the library.

But today, she's actually walked out and happens to run into Tita.]

Oh, hey Rider.

[Rita has a bit of a habit of defaulting to people's class names until she actually knows them a little more. Going back if they piss her off.]

[bigcore]

Huh... hi. [She tilts her head and waves like she's unfamiliar with the motion.] Emerged from the cave... Must be serious.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Hey, the library's not that bad!

[It is in the room she took for studying where she turned the lights down and everything...]

And I can walk out even if it's not serious, too...

[bigcore]

Hmm... dunno, dunno. What are you out looking for?

[As she leans in, her ahoge bounces around like it's got a will of its own.]

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

[The bouncing hair distracts Rita for a second or two, before she answers...]

Food, honestly?

[bigcore]

'Kay.

[She spins on her heel and starts walking in the direction of the cafeteria.]

Guess that's serious. You have to eat to live. Maybe.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... I wish I could live without eating, sometimes. It's kind of a pain in the ass, especially here where I don't have the research support staff passing me stuff.

Not that it was much good, but it saved time when I was busy on stuff.

[bigcore]

Huh. Thought people here liked food? Everyone eats a ton of it. All different kinds. Tomato, no tomato.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... I think there's more kinds than that?

I dunno. I rarely paid attention to food much, I was always more focused on my research.

[bigcore]

Simplified. Don't you simplify? Thought humans did.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

I mean. True. That just kinda seems like an oddly specific place to simplify on.

[Rita isn't just adjusted to "oddly specific" being Tita's norm...]

[bigcore]

Confusing. You wanna get food, right? But also you don't care about it a lot. Have you ever eaten books?

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... Books aren't nutritious, why would I do that?

[She probably chewed on several as a very young kid, but that was years and years ago.]

It's just that if it's proper food, it mostly ends up as the same mush once it's in your stomach, so.

[... In spite of this, she definitely has her choices when given one, she's just not admitting to liking gel candies that easily.]

[bigcore]

Huh. No taste buds? Smoking is bad for you.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... I never actually messed with it, too many bad experiences with someone back home.

[Meaning, Rita doesn't get how that's related.]

[bigcore]

Oh, huh. [She tilts her head.] That's how most people lose their taste. Or they get sick, or maybe they're cursed. If you're cursed, someone can eat it.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... Wait. Eating. Curses???

How does that even work?!

[bigcore]

Some people are weird, you know.

Not me. Human food is amazing. It has taste. Usually. It's not dry. Usually.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... Tasteless food can be okay. Sometimes.
