;;I have been sparse due to work and I will be even more for the upcoming days. Thanks back to school season for giving me odd hours. But I wanna participate in this event somewhat so I will try and reply as I can.
Anyway war to Makie is a pain but I like to see her suffer. So like this for a starter! ''Capping at 3''!
Starters can be one lined to a paragraph.
ariesoftheheavenlyflock
“The living conditions here seem modest enough. And as shaky as it may seem, there is a decent foundation for society to advance normally. Maybe their claims of wanting to save humanity aren’t entirely unfounded.“
At the very least, he could find no blaring contradictions in their words. Though he had no doubts that these were still only half truths. There was still much they weren’t telling them.
She searched around the city, read every book she could on the subject, but no matter how hard she tried Makie could never find an exact reason for why the world ended. There was a large difference between censorship and a lack of information, but right now the evidence pointed to the former in her quest for info.
“If we are talking about saving the world it has to be some sort of attack. If it was a natural disaster then there wouldn't be the notion of servants and masters. Natural disasters are things current in nature. So if it wasn’t a result of nature it has to be a result of conflict. But kind of conflict could cause this? A conflict with the gods? Would make sense if it is about going against the world.”
Walking down the streets in the den of night, Makie mumbled to herself while trying to logically think of a reason for why this particular method of saving the world existed. It was driving her up a wall, why couldn’t she see a clear solution? Why couldn’t she find out anymore hints or clues in the situation? She was missing something, but she couldn’t figure out what it was.
She just needed that one hint. That one piece of evidence to light the way for the chaotic fragments to connect.
Though just as she turned the corner-
“WAAaaaaaaah!” An explosion set off, with her in front of it. The shock caused her to fly backwards until her back hit the wall of the building a street over.
She coughed continuously as she tried to recover herself.
Her head was killing her now, like someone had split it open.
“...Freaking...dammit...” She pressed her hand into the back of her head. It wasn’t bleeding luckily, but she definitely did not come out unscathed.
“....stupid...freaking...demonic NPCs..!” She groaned under breath while trying to stand up, failing with each attempt to do so.
Who we are
ariesoftheheavenlyflock:
Makie almost felt like applauding him for his work. Human trafficking was a difficult thing to stop. But this guy up and went to do it. The only thing that stopped her was to respect the motivation behind the man’s actions. Whether it was intentional or not it was still a good thing. But a part of her believed that he did so out of his own free will.
Which lead to her being trusting of the young man.
“I figured it was because you didn’t attack me yet that you were trustworthy. Instead of doing it, you spoke about it. Not many folks will do that, especially in war. And I think you laid out enough evidence to show that you could kill me in seconds. You are the type of guy who is a lot nicer than he let’s on. You got a sense of honor, and I respect that. ” She applied what was basically common sense to her and read the boy like an open book. Granted she couldn’t decipher a lot from that info but it was a good enough start.
“Well if we are going to introduce ourselves, then my name’s Makie. Makie Kobayashi. And you sir….hmm…should I assume you are Berserker, or Avenger?” She asked with a rather cocky smirk on her face.
“Your lucky i’m still a bit sleepy from just finish crushing those idiots..,,I’m Assassin.”
It wasn’t hard. Kouu were friends with TERRIBLE peoples in life and know how they think. Beating the fear into the mafia by targeting each and every single one of them at places they least expect and then work his way to the boss.
Kouu got more then enough to crush a organization or two by himself.
Beside…….this girl starting to remind him a LITTLE to much of Neuman. Even if she guess close enough. Kouu don’t wanna give her that satisfaction as he rub his eyes a little.
“So what your thought in this whole save the world thing Kobayashi? You think people who destroy lifes of childrens in pursuit of magic and this mythical [root] is worth saving?”
Kouu not a idiot you know? He not as smart as Neuman but he do pick up a book every once in a while. Plus their also that one mafia member who can’t take pain and tell Kouu whatever he need when he wants to.
“Oh.....then you are kinda sloppy for an assassin.” She had to say it. Since the assassins she knew were about precision, seeing something as terrible as this and how mangled some bodies were, Assassin was honestly the farthest from her guesses. Oh well. Accepting that she was wrong she shrugged her shoulders.
“Sorry then Assassin. My own poor judgement.” She apologized before moving on.
“Well....if you ask me...I’m split. While I am certain they did deserve it, I am of the camp that killing is never a viable answer unless it is absolutely necessary. Honestly, if I were you I would have tore off their hands and feet. That way they wouldn’t be able to do much of anything. Maybe give them a scare with Barney and the Dinosaurs or perhaps strapping them to a chair and making them watch catchy songs on loop for ten hours until they turn to mush. Maybe some water torture of a drop falling onto their foreheads every second. That kind of thing can drive a person to insanity.”
Her explanation as she paced were kept in with her morals. TO her killing was never an option. She hated the action. As someone who experienced death she knew what it meant to die and have your fate in the hands of the gods. However, since these guys were humans, there would be no heaven or hell, no underworld or afterworld for them. They would just vanish.
No justice in the next life would reach them, no punishment for their actions would catch them, not even a change of redemption. Just poof. They are gone. And that was far too anticlimatic for Makie.
“As for saving the world...well I never once bothered with it. In the past the world was at stake but only in a metaphysical sense. It was still important though. Anyway I digress. Since we got a conglomerate of servants and masters, it should be feasible. Not one single person can save the world, if that was the case wouldn’t God have done it? Even the gods when they had to fight had to band together. So if this whole world ending story is real, then we need more information to go on. Perhaps sending out a team of scouts that are agile and observant.”
Who we are
ariesoftheheavenlyflock:
“No no no just here to see what all the commotion was about.” Waving her hand to dismiss the absurdity of her fighting this servant. As it stood she did not possess the resources or power to fight a servant. Which sucked for the currently servantless master.
And well, she was oddly curious about the sleeping servant under the cherry blossom tree during this season. Enough so that her hidden problem child wanted to sneak over ad draw on his face. Better keep that marker hidden…
“Though I have to say you really gave those poor bastards a beatdown. Even I feel pity for them.” How could she not given they were ripped apart. But well, it was the mafia.
“So dare I ask what kind of terrible thing they did to deserve being ripped apart?” She asked.
“Human trafficking. A couple of these idiot try using kids to do a experiment on magic circuits. Before you go AWWW. I only did it because my master ask me to. Not out of some stupid idea of justice.”
It’s actually half truth. Kouu till right now STILL HAVEN’T FOUND HIS MASTER. But he did do it because a girl who look VERY much like Corday ask him to. Since all he good for was destroy. He did his job and weaken the mafia to the point Kouu sure they wouldn’t be back for a while.
“What your name by the way? Your not a servant then you must be a master. I don’t know if your stupid or brave. How can you be sure a violent guy like me wouldn’t get up out of this tree right now and kill you for my master sake? You seen what i done to the mafia.”
He testing her. He got no intention to hurt her….for now. But if Kouu was serious. this would have quickly turn bloody.
This girl have no reason to trust him yet here she is chatting with the world strongest man. WHat a strange girl…..almost kind remind him a tinsy bit of Seiya.
Thinking back to Seiya. Kouu chest tighten a little bit.
Makie almost felt like applauding him for his work. Human trafficking was a difficult thing to stop. But this guy up and went to do it. The only thing that stopped her was to respect the motivation behind the man’s actions. Whether it was intentional or not it was still a good thing.

“Well if we are going to introduce ourselves, then my name’s Makie. Makie Kobayashi. And you sir....hmm...should I assume you are Berserker, or Avenger?” She asked with a rather cocky smirk on her face.
ariesoftheheavenlyflock:
“Servant?! I am a master!!” Makie immediately replied. Did she look like a servant? Truth be told she could have been summoned as a servant….Caster maybe? She did have some fencing skills so…Saber also?
Wait that wasn’t important right now!!
“Also my bike isn’t something out of a sci-fi setting, its just a normal bike that has better reinforcement than most bikes. It took a lot of money to get that reinforcement right so I will demand my hard work back!!” Call her childish, if something she worked hard on was being kept from her, of course she would have an attitude. It was only natural to be angry if someone stole something you worked hard on. For some it could be the 150+ hour save file with several new game plus+ files used to complete the game. If that trophy was suddenly erased by someone whom you didn’t know obviously you would be pissed.
For Makie it was the same concept.
“…Makie Kobayashi. A half dead girl with no occupation. You can’t call me a NEET though since I am in education and just traveling abroad right now…or was.”
…..So if he speed blitz her right now and vibrate his hands though her heart he can kill her right then and there along with whatever servant she might have. It would be interesting to test the servant response time to danger and what happens after the master dies. It’s not like she have a whole lot of weapons to fight a man who can vibrate his molecules to the point of intangibility….does she?
But alas. Eobard more rational side tell him to play the long game. The earth already ended. To blow the Harrison Wells cover so SOON after just being destroy from the timeline seem…well seem like something his younger self would have done. Those 15 long years in the past though Eobard the need to play the long game. as he continue to listen to the child his eye brow raise.
“Well then what are you going to do about your anger? You can scream and whine about how unfair at the end of the day about how you don’t have your bike. But remember one thing. ALL of is is on a noah ark. We are gifted cube for communication along side currency we really can’t use yet. Why don’t you just wait till you have enough of the currency and then buy your bike back from the people who put us here? Money talks. Your the type of girl who wanna work hard to regain what she lost don’t you? Then simply be patient and walk till then. You got a perfect pair of walking legs till then don’t you? Can you travel or not even without a bike? I can’t without this wheel chair. I wish i still got my legs but i don’t. All due to a hasty mistake i made that ruin countless include my own. While i understand your feelings to a extent. Your problems right now seem tiny compare to what had happen to the world.”
…….Maybe being Harrison Wells for to long change Eobard but he gotten better at these type of speeches. Adding to the fact he play a pretty damn good disable just boost his speech a bit as he adjust his glasses.
“Sorry……that might have been a bit to harsh. Regardless what do you mean by half dead? I might not look like it but back in my world i work with a number of meta humans before. Maybe i can help you in ways you don’t expect.”
“With how screwed up I am I think I am allowed to scream to my hearts content until the frustration is out of me. I prefer that over the crying method that gives me migraines. Besides, I think it is appropriate to scream about your loses rather than just hold it in.” For a while now she had been keeping up the act, but any anger she had has well and now been gone since she released her inner frustrations. Granted it was childish, and many points he said were ones he knew but did not feel up to owning about them. The truth of the matter was that this guy felt natural. Too natural.
Though she had to admit, he was quite eloquent with his words.
The last time she met someone like that her life was ruined. She could understand his situation, and it seemed he was pretty honest about it. Perhaps this wouldn’t end up like last time.
Though, the moment he stated he worked with meta humans, Makie couldn’t help but grimace.
“Meta as in supernatural, mythological, or just the quirky people with special powers? Actually no, nevermind, in the end it doesn’t matter. And you don’t have to bother with it. I’m pretty content with the little time I have now. Just as you try to find a way to live your life, I simply enjoy living in the moment and selfishly taking in what the world has to offer me. Not like I can offer anything to begin with.” She shrugged her shoulders, displaying a more calm and collected manner that was pretty easygoing and nihilistic with her current situation.
While this was honestly something she didn’t mind talking about, in fact telling people would probably get them off her back later down the line. For some reason she couldn’t bring up the basic fact to him. Of what she was. Of what time she has left.
Besides, she had long accepted her conclusion. Why extend the life she had grown content with living?
“Though since you brought it up....” Taking out the cube in her pocket, Makie fiddled with the item. “You seem like a smart guy,” Grinning she asked. “What is your take on this story we were given?”
Really now she went from one persona to the next. Consistency wasn’t really her thing when talking with people. Perhaps it was a way of coping while trying to get a read on the person? Who knows.
@ariesoftheheavenlyflock
Well, this definitely wasn’t Remnant; even if the handy voice hadn’t filled her in, it wouldn’t have been too hard to tell. She’d put aside the implications of being here for now. A new city, new people, new things to do… and a new partner, apparently.
As if that was ever going to go well.
Still, she should at least try and figure out what this whole deal meant for her before she actually had to do something. Maybe paying more attention would have been a good idea, but asking anyone who stood out would probably be just as effective.
“Hey, you. With the white hair. You’re new here, right?”
Being signaled out for her hair was a common thing for Makie, so common that now she couldn’t help but reflexively turn around at the mention of ‘white hair’. Though in this city that had it’s few share of individuals with white, silver or grey hair this would have to be a habit to fix later.
This time it did seem to be the signal for her attention than anyone else.
“As new as anyone else is.” Makie shrugged her shoulders while scanning the young lady in front of her. She seemed pretty normal surprisingly. Granted she had that servant-vibe to her, but when compared to some of the other particular servants she had met, this girl would honestly rank as one of the top normal servants she has met.
The lawyer didn’t count, the fact a lawyer of all people could be counted as a servant (as well as that hairstyle) made him abnormal.
“While plenty of cute servants have walked up to the defenseless master, you seem more the talkative type. If you got any questions I'm in the mood to answer them.”
Who we are
@ariesoftheheavenlyflock
“If they are Kouu san friends they must be good people!!”
Kouu laughed at how confident the idiot said it. Seiya don’t even know Kouu had frigging Hitler, Caesar, Pol Pot , and ton of sinners waiting in his hide out for news from their leaders. All of them are infamous in history and yet Seiya say he accept them all because Kouu is there friend…..what a refreshing idiot.
Kouu putting his faith in Seiya wasn’t misplace. Even…even if Kouu dies. He knows the future in good hands. Seiya going to be the light that guide them to a better future…
“It will definitely be a success.”
“Let’s make it a success!”
Kouu wake up back to the real world as he rub his eyes. That…..that was one of the last few happy memories he had with Seiya before everything went to shit. Kouu have fallen asleep after a LONG battle with the criminals in the city. NO he not doing this for any just cause. Kouu just wanna teach these wannabe who the big boss around here as he fallen asleep under a sakura blossom tree with a bunch of the criminals having run away leaving nothing but there weapons behind. Though the blood and the torn piece of clothing still here as Kouu have rip more then several of them with his bare hands.
There seem to be white hair girl also observing him. Must have saw him when he fallen asleep.
“How dull. The mafia claim to be tough guys yet when face with violence they can’t reason with they bend and cry like children. What about you little girl? Just passing by here out of curiosity or do you wanna be a hero of justice and take on the big bad violent servant?”
Kouu already have a rep of using violence to solve his problems as there actually a small bounty on his head.
“No no no just here to see what all the commotion was about.” Waving her hand to dismiss the absurdity of her fighting this servant. As it stood she did not possess the resources or power to fight a servant. Which sucked for the currently servantless master.
And well, she was oddly curious about the sleeping servant under the cherry blossom tree during this season. Enough so that her hidden problem child wanted to sneak over ad draw on his face. Better keep that marker hidden...
“Though I have to say you really gave those poor bastards a beatdown. Even I feel pity for them.” How could she not given they were ripped apart. But well, it was the mafia.
“So dare I ask what kind of terrible thing they did to deserve being ripped apart?” She asked.
ariesoftheheavenlyflock:
Uh-oh. That didn’t seem confident.
“….ok then…..how about taking me there instead?” If she couldn’t pinpoint the location on a map, maybe she could lead Makie to the location.
“That I can do! Follow me, um.. What’s your name, miss?” Ayano canted her head to the side before smiling brightly. Offering out her hand to the other as a friendly handshake. “You can call me Ayano!”
...................It was literally taking everything Makie had to not simply hug the girl right then and there. Using all her will and composure, Makie shook hands with the devilishly cute girl.
“Nice to meet you Ayano. Makie Kobayashi is in your care now!~”
“Then shall we get going miss leader?”
@ariesoftheheavenlyflock
It was, perhaps, a bit of a letdown, to hear ‘your servant has not yet arrived’. After all, wasn’t that the main point of the ‘setting’?
Of course, I suppose, that when you ‘meet’ does not matter–
“I guess I have to hope that I don’t run into anyone dangerous until they can summon me a servant, then.”
A sardonic smile graces the speaker’s lips.
“Though that may be too late, since there’s somebody following me already.”
The boy has a teasing tone in his voice, a lilt. He turns around with a smile contrary to his words.
She didn’t even have to hide it, rather she had no intention of hiding it. With a big smile on face she waved at the individual she had been trailing without shame.
“Welcome to the war Mr. Master. Sorry for following you, but I was bored and wanted to see the new face.” She wasn’t lying on that account, she truly was bored and wanted to speak with someone new. However, there was a piece of info she had been hiding, one she din’t intend on revealing unless she was right.
“Though it doesn’t look like a servant is around, so you were one of the newbies that came in without a servant huh?“ Straight up and blunt about the situation at hand, no tact whatsoever.
The stranger tailing the teenager reveals them self easily, with a smile that did nothing to hint at the situation she had been found in.
In a way, it’s suitable, as the boy smiles back, despite having been tailed by a stranger who’s intentions are not quite visible.
“Hehe… Are you sure it isn’t because you fell in love with me at first sight?”
The tone in his voice is light, teasing. Ryuubei runs his hand through his curls, closing the distance between him and his ‘stalker’. Each step is taken casually, and he smiles in a way that would put anyone at ease.
“I suppose, yes… Though, it sounds like my situation is a bit different from the others.”
“Since they gave me a ‘name’, that must mean my servant has already been decided…”
He gives the information away easily, as if this wasn’t a setting of war. As if it were a casual chat between friends, in the domestic world he had come from.
“Hmm?~ You do seem to be the Romeo to my Juliet, but in an alternate universe perhaps.” Makie flirted back, while oh so casually letting him down. He definitely seemed like an interesting boy, not many people outright came onto her. No doubt if this was the past her she would have been trying to act cool while hiding her embarrassment. However hearing about his lack of a servant caused Makie’s switch to flip to normal.
“Ah so you were hit with that huh?” Made sense, there seemed to be an influx of masters moreso than servants at the moment. How fast was this system going in order to save everyone?
“Well that would explain a few of the NPC’s actions.” Makie mumbled while rubbing the back of her neck. Now she just felt silly for feeling like this boy was going to be attacked. “Maybe I am overthinking it…”
It was at that moment the girl realized she was thinking out loud.
“Ah….I still need to break that habit….”
“Eh? Why am I Romeo? I think I’d make a cute Juliet, you know…”
For a moment, his cheeks are puffed, like a kid who hasn’t gotten his way–
But then a laugh escapes from his lips, and his expression melts into an grin. He obviously doesn’t care at all at the ‘rejection’, if it could be called that. Rather, he looks like he’s amused by her reaction.
“Yep. Though I’m sure I’ll meet my partner soon enough~♪”
He stretches his arms up to rest behind his head. Makie mumbles to herself, and the boy’s eyes lazily move to watch her.
“Mmh? Don’t leave me out of the conversation, you know. I’ll get lonely.”
Ryuubei says that, and Makie’s eyes move up to meet his.
5. 4. 3. 2. 1…
Five seconds of eye contact. A relaxed feeling seems to hang in the air.
“Will you tell me? What’s got you so troubled you’re talking to yourself.”
It’s a suggestion, made lightly. But there’s a sort of power behind it. A sparkle in his eyes, and it feels like you could tell him anything. Your deepest, darkest secrets would be safe with this boy–
so what’s the harm in sharing something little like this?
“Hmm....” Makie crossed her arms. On one hand she would be given another set of eyes to observe the situation and gather more intel. On the other hand she would be placing a nameless person in danger, especially if they are a master. With the limit on her powers due to not being summoned as a master instead of a servant, Makie wasn’t working at top condition nor could she assist the young man if he was put into danger.
To top it off he had no servant, and hers just straight up vanished.
“Well it is best to know just in case. Since you are a master with no servant, or at least an official one.” In this case people like him deserve to know the best.
“As of late, it seems the NPCs have been a biiiiit hostile. They don’t show it outwardly but they tend to have a very visible aura. Really it’s insane how much the NPC’s look and feel like humans. Gotta give them credit for craftsmanship and coding.”
She had to admire the work put into this place. Such a considerate bunch of fellows.
“But as for the reason why they seem to be bloodthirsty really is unknown right now. I only started realizing it now anyway. So if you happen to feel a killing intent behind your back, I suggest running in a zigzag motion until you feel safe.”

ariesoftheheavenlyflock:
Ah it was pretty obvious she was making him uncomfortable.
Better remove myself.
And so she released the poor adult from the bear hug she trapped him in.
“Guess I went too far huh? Sorry about that.” Rubbing the back of her neck she released an apology, but still retained her bright smile. “Well I wasn’t kidding on the discount. Granted it would have to be when my business is set up! Otherwise thanks for the fragment! Now I am one step closer!”
He neither confirms nor denies whether or not she ‘went too far’. That should be self-evident, considering the way his brow’s arched. Her friendliness is a tad off-putting for his tastes. It’s only a matter of time until he says something rude without meaning to.
Against his better judgment, Julian opens his mouth and asks, “What sort of business are you intending to open?” Because curiosity makes a man do stupid things. God knows how long of a conversation he’s just been roped into; it’s questionable whether or not this young lady knows how to run a business either. Those in retail ought to know not to throw themselves at random strangers.
At the question presented to her, Makie had to smile. No, she had to snicker. What became a snicker became a giggle, and then, a laugh of pride. With her hands on her hips she declared.
“An Atelier shop for synthesis!” And there it was, the big reveal of her plan. Her incomplete plan mind you but a plan made from the passion she had.
“Well to keep it short and simple that is the basic summary. A place for me to synthesize various items with help from both my servant and the public. After all event if I do search out materials necessary I still need money and materials from customers as well. But alas, that is only if I can get into the top three spots for the money. Would be nice. Knowing my luck I will probably end up at the bottom. Aaaah such is life.” Shaking her head at her own bad luck, the girl resigned herself to whatever fate had in store for her. Though this was merely a cover. In truth she was more curious about Julian’s reactions.
“Ahaaha, you got that look on your face that doubts me. Understandable since a girl who never worked in retail just hugged you....that is what you were thinking right? Pretty easy to understand that line of thought.”

Help each other? Right that would be the quickest method of locating the saint fragments if they worked together. Effective, but then it comes down to how they would split the money. 50/50 was always the fairest, bu that would leave her with 250000. Would that be good enough to start a business? Or would she have to rely on her servant to bring in some money also? Well they were partners in living here now so it wouldn’t be out of place.
But if possible she would have liked to not be a burden on her servant.
Though like hell was she going to be a swindler. Even though she could do it with ease, that wasn’t her. Her conscious was too far on the good to allow her to do so.
Doesn’t help that her papa had an effect on her growing up.
“That could work. We can discuss the details later if we win.” YEah it was pointless to worry about that now. Every second was a wasted opprotunity, they had to get started now.
Act now ask questions later. That was the current methodology of Makie Kobayashi’s life.
It was rather natural of May to so freely offer assistance. She was hardly the type to be guarded or suspicious of someone without good reason to think so. Even then, she preferred to err on the side of trust over suspicion. Besides, in this weird setup this whole GRAIL thing put them in, it was all to their benefit to be, if not buds, then at least associates; after all, kinda hard to work together for the salvation of humanity or whatever if they were too afraid to show their backs to one another.
And in terms of this virus thing, material reward was rather secondary to the concern of the damage this outbreak could do if left unchecked, so why not pool effort? Sure, money and stuff would be great, but that was just a neat bonus. After all, you could hardly enjoy the fruits of money if everything went to heck; not like that would happen, but Still.
“Sounds good to me!” She quickly packs her guitars back into her case, then slings it over her back as she heads over to the white-haired girl with an open, friendly smile on her face as she abruptly takes her hand for a rather energetic handshake. “G’day, the names May! May Morseland, guitarist, Master, and part-time ass kicker as of this whole shebang at least, haha! Well okay, I can handle a guy or two, but ya do what ya got, right?”
And those had hardly been a walk in the park, no matter what action movies would have you believe. She recalled the enthusiastic sparring she’d done back in her dojo; a fun, enthusiastic competition between peers hoping to better themselves. A far cry from the visceral reality of having to try and knock someone on their ass for real, especially given the scary condition of those infected by the virus.
“Got any ideas on where to start? I dunno, maybe it’s because I’ve watched too much anime or something, but a girl with white hair like you screams cool go-getter or something.” A…rather interesting way to go about this, May. “Or, uh, I suppose you coulda dyed it or something. Uh, nevermind I suppose, ehehe…” Smooth.
Oh right, she never did introduced herself huh? With a smile Makie held the hand of the other in a strong grip, but not too strong as to break the other’s hand. “Makie Kobayashi, nice to meet you May! Currently I am a homunculus traveling the world to expand my knowledge!” She could appreciate the girl’s willingness to do something. As a fellow Aries she herself felt moved to fight and be able to defend herself during times like this. Well more so just being able to actually do something.
And then there was the comment about her hair. It wasn’t like she hadn’t heard something similar before, but the way she presented it gained a giggle from Makie.
“Normally the albinos of anime are the ones you should be afraid of.” Well she wasn’t wrong. She could think of two in particular that were not friendly and had OP powers. Oh well, Makie was kind of similar to them, if her powers had not been diminished as they were.
“Though now the question is where to search.” Taking out the pocket watch that was in her upper jacket pocket, Makie chanted a small phrase.
“[Alpha].” The item lit up, and the future was laid bare to Makie. Her power worked in seeing the future, but it was an odd way. The farthest she could see was up to five years, but the earliest was five minutes. Pretty handy to use as a scanner if something major didn’t happen while she was searching in the future. Though going by what she could see, the nearest batch of fragments was....here?
“.......Huh?” Makie tapped the pocket watch a few times.
“......Hmmm....” Her face scrunched up a bit.
“...Oi....you wouldn’t happen to be good in a fight would you?”
;;When work screws you over to the point you couldn’t even write for event that much......
;;WRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

“Hey you didn’t happen to see any Saint Fragments did you?” Blunt and straight to the point. At this time Makie had no need to be formal. She wanted those saint fragments, she needed that damn money! Which is why she asked the guitarist sitting on the park bench. Normally the park is where the source of information gathered, besides a bar, and this could have been a place where she could find some of the fragments.
“If you have seen any of them tell me I promise to make it worth your while when I get my business started up! Please!” Clapping her hands together she bowed and begged the unknown master.
Well. May had just been about to sit down and relax, processing the news of everything that was now happening, accompanying her thoughts, as she was wont to do, with playing her instrument. But just as she was about to do so, the young white-haired girl suddenly addressed her. The young guitarist couldn’t help but blink at the timing. Sometimes life was just perfect in it’s own weird way like that.
“Oh, uh, for sure!” She puts her instrument back down to better regard the girl. “I was actually gonna start thinking about that kinda stuff myself in a lil bit, so I’ll be sure to let you know too! Although I’m probably clueless as you at this point, to be honest, it’ll be cake if we help each other, right?”
Help each other? Right that would be the quickest method of locating the saint fragments if they worked together. Effective, but then it comes down to how they would split the money. 50/50 was always the fairest, bu that would leave her with 250000. Would that be good enough to start a business? Or would she have to rely on her servant to bring in some money also? Well they were partners in living here now so it wouldn’t be out of place.

Did….did she hear that right?
He was…giving her a saint fragment?
“You…are giving this to me?” What was this? Tears? Were tears threatening to spill form her eyes?
Then…
Makie jumped towards the ambiguous man and grasped him in a tight hug.
“Thank you, thank you thank you!! You have no IDEA how much trouble I’ve been in to find a single fragment to call my own!! I promise when i make my atelier you get a discount, any object one time only (so long as its not a dangerous lethally object that could potentially destroy the world)!”
Oh dear god, why is this happening to him? As soon as she jumps, he throws his arms out in some awkward reflex, thinking he needs to catch her. When she latches on like a koala, though, he keeps his arms outstretched like a stiff scarecrow. Julian stares ahead, looking for the answers to the universe among the horizon.
The most he can manage is a clammy pat upon her back - just the one - before his hand returns to its stop-eating-my-crops position.
His voice wavers as he speaks, “I’d, I’d really appreciate it if you came down now. Just a suggestion.”
If anyone from the team caught sight of this, Caitlin especially, he’d never hear the end of it. The dad jokes would never cease. Imagine, Julian Albert with a child. Him, a father. He does a mental shudder at the thought.
Ah it was pretty obvious she was making him uncomfortable.
Better remove myself.
And so she released the poor adult from the bear hug she trapped him in.
“Guess I went too far huh? Sorry about that.” Rubbing the back of her neck she released an apology, but still retained her bright smile. “Well I wasn’t kidding on the discount. Granted it would have to be when my business is set up! Otherwise thanks for the fragment! Now I am one step closer!”
