Holy Grail War AU Meme

Here's what's throwing down
1. The Holy Grail has appeared in the Drabwurld, selecting seven masters and seven servants to fight for it. An omnipotent wish granting device, winning this Grail could end the war of the courts once and for all.
2. Comment with your character. In the subject line, put that character's name, canon, and which role (Master, Servant, or either) you would like them to fulfill.
3. If you're going with the servant option, feel free to imply that your character reached a heroic status before they died in game. Remember, there's a great chance that there's an old friend summoning you to this fight, and you'll be fighting along side them.
4. Have fun

An explanation is here, contact any of the Fate/ cast with questions.

TWO MASTERS

1. Battle. Who says that Servants get to have all the fun? After all, most Masters try to kill each other, too. Whatever the circumstances, the two of you are locked in a fight. Neither of you are willing to use your Command Spells just yet, so no Servants here. Just two magi duking it out.

2. Alliance. There's a bigger threat out there. Either one Servant is exceptionally powerful, or the situation has changed and the participants need to take action against it. One way or another, you're teamed up with one of your rivals for the Holy Grail. How long will this last before you try to stab each other in the back? Or, will something more develop?

3. Protection. Uh-oh! One of you has lost your Servant! Unfortunately, there's no way you'd get to the church safely on your own, so the other one will help you get there! Or maybe you don't trust the priest presiding over the Holy Grail War and are giving shelter to them yourself? Given their track record, no one would blame you.

4. Death. One or both of you lay dying. It might have been by the other's hand, or by someone else's entirely. How will you spend your last moments in the presence of one of your rivals?

5. You, Too? Surprise! You may have been friends before, but you've just discovered that you're both Masters! How will you handle this revelation?

6. Wild Card. Roll again, pick one of the previous options, or make one up!

MASTER AND SERVANT

1. Are You My Master? The summoning is complete. Whether intentional or not, catalyst or not, a magus has summoned a Servant. What kind of meeting was it? Was everything totally under control, or did a hitch occur? Or maybe it happened in the middle of a life-or-death situation!

2. Identity. Either the Servant has flat out told the Master their identity, or they unleashed their Noble Phantasm. Either way, the cat is out of the bag. How will the Master react, now that they know their Servant's name and legend? Will anything change between the two?

3. Battle Aftermath. A battle has just ended. Who participated? Are either of you hurt? Did the Master have to use a Command Spell? Any number of things could have happened here.

4. Discord. Uh-oh. It looks like the Master and the Servant don't get along. Here come the arguments! Don't do something stupid, like waste a Command Spell over a triviality...

5. Love. And then, there's the opposite. Sometimes Masters and Servants fall in love with each other. How will this affect things?

6. Wild Card. Roll again, pick one of the previous options, or make one up!

TWO SERVANTS

1. Battle. This is what usually happens when two Servants meet -- they duke it out. This probably says enough as it is.

2. Alliance. There's a bigger threat out there. Either one Servant is exceptionally powerful, or the situation has changed and the participants need to take action aginst it. One way or another, you're teamed up with one of your rivals for the Holy Grail. How long will this last before you try to stab each other in the back? Or, will something more develop?

3. The Grail Dialogues. Maybe you're not interested in fighting just yet. Maybe you just want to sit down and talk with the other Servant. Find out what they want, what makes them tick. Get some wine while you're at it -- nothing like good wine to go with good talk!

4. Death. One or both of you lay dying...again. It might have been by the other's hand, or by someone else's entirely. How will you spend your last moments in this War in the presence of one of your rivals?

5. Identity. Congratulations, you've just learned each other's identities! Will this change the situation, or will you press onward?

6. Wild Card. Roll again, pick one of the previous options, or make one up!

Of course.

All right, let's go see what you can do and then from there we'll figure out how to spend the rest of the evening.

After you, since you know this place far better than I could ever hope to.

Oh fine, don't take the initiative. [ Rin teases, all while walking with his cloak around her shoulders.

It kept her warm unlike certain other parts of the Heroic Spirit. ]

[The problem of being dead, sadly.

Rider has to admit, the cloak looks damn good on her. Where did that original one get to anyway? Buried with him? Bartered off? Finding it, or else giving Rin a replacement for the future would be something worth considering.

He lets himself be lead out, stepping quietly beside Rin.]

[ Buried with him, of course. It'd be shameful to steal the clothes off the back of the dead, wouldn't it? Once they're atop the deck, she pulls the cloak around her form more tightly. ]

Here we are. [ Already in the sky and everything. How much of this operates without her so much lifting a finger? ]

[A replacement then, eventually.

Being out on the deck, wind whips at Rider's hair, sending it sideways nd threatening to smack into Rin. The feeling is wonderful, honestly, and i a moment of pure, childish delight, he runs over to look out and over the sides. Seeing the Drabwurd from so high up is still surreal, still...there's wonder in it. A Heroic Spirit, marching with one of the best generals of all time, and this is what fills him with delight.]

[ At least it's pleasant to see him like this. Rin waits patiently, taking in the crisp air around her. If anything, she's come to love the open sky for that feeling alone. Rejuvenated, she doesn't seem all that bothered by him taking his time. ]

Isn't it beautiful?

Still beyond words.

[He says it faintly, talking to himself more than to Rin.]

I could stay up here forever.

Is that what you'd like to do, Rider? Stay up here forever with me?

I'll probably do something dumb like dote on you, but other than that... I think it'd be peaceful.

Honestly, you make it sound way too tempting.

It'd be as though it were a bad end to one of your video games. We give up on the fight only to hide away for eternity.

[ Did she just admit to playing his video games by accident?? ]

I don't know, staying in the clouds with you into eternity sounds like a pretty good end to me.

Haa... don't tempt me. [ She's been so lonely, so very lonely and as a result is almost selfish enough to accept it. ]

We'll have one last good adventure together, Waver Velvet.

[ One where she doesn't walk out alive, Rin silently hopes. ]

Oh, let's not have this be the last.

[He finally peels himself away from the side of the ship.]

One of many new ones.

Of many new ones-? Does that mean you want to...

[ She could almost cry. ]

[Rider grins, and tilts his head slightly.]

Duh?

[ It's time to start crying. ] Ahh Rider, you stupid idiot. I'm going to... I'm going to...

[ Break down into gross sobbing, yup. ]

[Oh no. Oh nonono. At that, Rider's at Rin's side, sweeping her up into a massive hug.]

[ At least now she can cry into his chest. Wrapping her arms tightly around his neck once she's on her toes and can reach, Rin doesn't let go. It's been so lonely without him and each day her heart ached, she thought foolish thoughts of joining him. ]

[Rider leans down a little so that she isn't on her toes so much, and tightens his grip. Not enough to be uncomfortable, but snugger than before. Trying to communicate that he's here now and that's all that matters.

He buries his face on top of Rin's head, and keeps it there.]
