Who: Archer (swordboning), Saber (invisibleair), Rin (codere) and everyone that was invited!
When: November 11th (RIGHT NOW) ~4PM
Where: The Tohsaka Apartment
What: PARTY TIME. Well, a party so Rin can actually make friends since she secretly complains about not having any!
Rating/Warning: nupe

[Cooking for a large amount of people is what Archer was all about. Might as well call him the Chef Heroic Spirit instead of the Blacksmith Heroic Spirit. This guy was a complete pro in the kitchen and completely without complaint!

Tons of food, cake, and nachos and cheese and salsa (don't ask). Serving it was left up to Saber since she was still probably under punishment. Either way, she had to make up for her issues in some way!

So for everyone here, they just had to chill out and wait for Rin to return home. Which should be shortly if she's not trying to be an absolute brat. Which, admittedly, happens sometimes.]

[codere]

If you want me to be happy, then you should strive for it with your own hands instead of relying on a bunch of strangers to do it in your place. [ TRIES HARDER?? ]

So tell me Archer.

How will you make me smile?

[swordboning]

I'm not having them do it in my place.

[Which is true. This was a method, in a way! But having fun apparently isn't a thing.]

To be honest, I don't know. However, I'm not going to cheat and ask you how. I'll simply be stubborn and continue trying until I hit on it properly.

[codere]

So you intend to be persistent despite your failures? Interesting.

[ And kind of stubborn. Wow, she really can see the Shirou Emiya in him when he gets this way. It's unsettling since she hates thinking positively of the boy closer to her age. ]

I guess I can admit I'm floored by this. I knew you were up to something, but I thought it was something nefarious. To find out you were setting this up for me... I, I guess I'm kind of grateful???!!!

[swordboning]

I'm thankful for that then. Whatever your reaction, I at least knew you'd enjoy the food. Take this as permission to sincerely indulge yourself however you want and ruin your health. If you eat an entire cake, I'll simply make another.

[codere]

I'll have a slice and then let the others take care of it for me. I shouldn't hoard all of your hard work to myself.

[ What a noble sacrifice.... ]

[swordboning]

What if I said I preferred you hoarded my work?

[codere]

I have you every single day of the week. [ Rin reminds him a bit. ]

It'll be all right to share you just this once.

[swordboning]

That's certainly your prerogative.

[Making her another cake tomorrow!!!]

But it seems Ryuko and Athena want to take the leftovers home. I suppose that's okay with you?

[codere]

I'll be generous this once. [ And only this once. ]

Those girls seem as if they don't have much between them. A lot of people here are like that, aren't they? Having to work hard to support themselves...

[swordboning]

Like Saber and myself?

[A JOKE.]

Still, you seem a little subdued. You're not going to kick my shins?

[codere]

[ Frowning a bit. ] I'd like to try to help out more, but the job suggestions I received...

[ She almost seems embarrassed to admit them as she recites from memory. ]

Cocktail waitress. Shoe store employee. Bar hostess.

What kind of jobs are those? Serving drinks to men who will stare at me in lust and placing my face near the feet of those lesser than me? Disgusting.

[swordboning]

...when you put it like that, it makes me a little mad. No, I don't think I'd really be happy if you worked either of those jobs.

[codere]

It's downright insulting. Prior to coming here and the Moon Cell, I was part of a resistance group who opposed the super power conglomerate that ruled the world! I don't deserve this trash.

[swordboning]

...I apologize for giving you grief over that.

[codere]

If you knew better, it wouldn't have come up. I just thought it was pointless to discuss it because if things continue as they have been, I'll have no choice other than to choose one of those places of employment.

[ Meaning why is he throwing a party for a bunch of strangers with money they could be spending on her?? ]

I'll figure something out in the meantime. I promised you that I would.

[swordboning]

We're not wanting for money, if that's what you're saying. In fact, that's a bold statement considering I handle the finances here.

[Stop faking poverty, Rin!!!]

Still, that's a pointless topic of discussion for today. Just enjoy yourself.

[codere]

[ She's poor until she owns like six CereVices, a flat full of electronics, and the latest generation console times three. Also a gun locker. She needs a gun locker. ]

I'll enjoy myself only because you put this together and it'd be a shame to slight you.

[swordboning]

I'll accept that. Let me know if anyone bothers you too.

[codere]

Why?

So you can kick them out? It'd defeat the purpose of having a party in the first place.

[swordboning]

You'd be surprised at how intimidating I can get. I don't think you've ever seen it.

[codere]

Do you intend to show me sometime? I'd probably have no choice other than to watch in that case.

[ He could intimidate her IN THE BEDROOM. ]

[swordboning]

I really didn't have any intention of showing you, no.

[Mind out of the gutter!!!!!!]

[codere]

[ She can't keep herself from flirting with him, gosh!! ]

Oh.

That's a shame.

[swordboning]

I'm sure if you stick around when Shirou's around, you might get a taste.

[codere]

Sorry, but I make it a habit to not disturb someone while they're having much needed alone time. If you want to rely on someone else for that kind of relief you know where to find me.
