59th ♫ | somewhere faraway and never to return

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

Not if you were sure to chew thoroughly!

[ She says this so proudly, like she's certain this is a real galaxy brain move. ]

As long as you're careful to chew, you can easily eat most things.

Huh... You're wise.

[and she's gonna randomly snap some photos of bryn with that camera.]

Most things?

Yes, of course! We're Servants, aren't we? It probably wouldn't taste quite as good as real food, but I don't imagine there'd be much we could eat that would do us harm.

Teach me your ways, Lancer.

[She's already trying to pull off a wall panel.]

Eh? Ah, m–maybe that's not such a good place to start! Don't destroy the wall!

[ HOW ON EARTH IS BRYN THE STRAIGHT MAN HERE ]

[Tita lets go and tilts her head.]

No good, huh? Thought anything was anything.

... Perhaps "anything" was just a little too broad...

[ Being the reasonable one is exhausting. God knows how Reifr does it. ]

Besides – I said that we could reasonably eat anything, not that we should be doing it!

Aww. [She slumps and rocks on her heels.] Okaaay. Then what's can and what's should? For eating.

Should is easy, isn't it? You should only eat food. As for could... that would be anything you could fit into your mouth, whether or not it was food, I think.

I got excited for a bit there. Sad, sad Tita. But food's good. Better than space food. Except if it's really bad.

What... exactly is space food?

[ ?!?!?!? ]

Hmm... Dry. Boring. Blocks. Hydrate them.

... Are you quite sure that really was food?

[ YOU'VE JUST DEMONSTRATED YOU CAN'T BE COMPLETELY

RELIED ON TO TELL ]

Huh... Yeah. Not good, though. I want chicken, I want liver. Like the commercial.

[how do you know this you are from space]

Wh... at... is a commercial, exactly?

Oh, they had some to watch on the shiny computer box. "I can see myself in this china."

Yes, the teevee!

[ She's so proud of herself for remembering what it's called, even if her pronunciation is, uh... interesting. ]

What other sorts of things have you been watching on it?

Whatever they have on. Did you know they have a whole channel just selling things? Bunch of jewelry and makeup. Vitamins too. Three easy payments. Dunno what's easy about it, though.

The teevee is only one way, isn't it? The people on the other side can't hear you... so how exactly would they know what you were planning to buy?

[ Her brow furrows in thought for a second, but then she brightens again. ]

Ah, I know! You'd simply need to phone them, isn't that right?

Uh-huh. They have a number on the bottom. Think people'd get mad if we bought stuff, though? Probably.

Perhaps, perhaps not... but what would we buy it with to begin with? I don't think Master has any money...

Huh, yeahhh. But the budget around here has to come from somewhere, right? Money doesn't grow on the mountain.

So, someone here has some money... it just isn't Master...

[ Uh oh. She's officially Thinking About It. ]

Maybe it's the Director? They're the one running everything, after all!

Where the food comes from. Wonder how much it pays. Why don't we get paid?

That's an excellent question, Foreigner!

[ Dear god. she's getting all riled up. Look what you've done, Tita. ]

Why don't we get paid?! We work just as hard as anyone else does around here!
