General, Halt There | Nero & Archer

As much as she truly despised the land for ripping her away from the male Hakuno and their victory, she equally appreciated it for bringing her back to the female Hakuno, her original Praetor. It was no SE.RA.PH. of course, but Nero supposed it would be a nice enough world to rule over by any means, naturally depending on the nobility of the king who runs it. And this ‘Cheshire’, it seemed, was far from her own caliber as a ruler, and certainly not deserving of any glory associated with overseeing a kingdom. Therefore, the King of the Moon Cell had taken it upon herself to traverse the quiet shores of Shoale Beach, hoping to find any resemblance of a clue that might lead her to her target, crimson sword drawn before her. Though, it was far less threatening now that it appeared as foam. 

However, a figure appeared a short distance ahead of her and emerald eyes landed upon him. “Halt!” Nero commanded, though the figure hadn’t seemed to be moving. “Servant or Master?” Even Saber herself still had trouble detaching SE.RA.PH. from Wonderland, though in this case she had been right as she recognized his stature and signature clothing. “Ah, General!” Nero sighed, crimson sword dropping from it’s battle-ready stance back to rest at her side. “How glorious of you to join me! Now we may strike back together!”

call this cliched, but this place, wonderland, continues to be curiouser and curiouser. the beach is one of its odder places, apparently; there are talks about it always being thirty minutes away from wherever you are as well as the missing ferry boat. to archer, however, the place doesn’t seem any odder from the things he’s seen. the pink sand is a first, though.

after taking the time to come here and finding nothing too important to take note of, archer decides to at least enjoy the scenery the coast has to offer. he’s just simply minding his business, walking around the shore and appreciating the salty air, when he hears the loud halt! then the all too familiar words.

master or servant? two words that archer didn’t think will hear in this place ring in his ears, and it’s enough to take him aback---perhaps make him even a little bit alarmed, but it’s soon replaced with confusion when he realises this person---servant---referred to him as general. is she someone he met somewhere? but he’s bound to remember her if he did---or maybe it’s in a different holy grail war, where he manifested as yet another servant, but that doesn’t make sense; what does being a general have to do with that?

archer keeps his confusion under wraps, though. expression remaining neutral, he appraises her appearance, casually eyeing her sword, and he comes to the conclusion that she’s probably a saber and that, with the way she talks to him, they’re on friendly terms, somehow.

❝ that’s quite a bold statement, ❞ he says, raising his brows at her. ❝ i’m afraid i’ll have to disappoint you, though. i don’t know you. ❞

“Well then, how about this book?” he recommended a rather small book. “ It contains basic knowledge what you need to know about wonderland, if this intrigues you enough. I have others as well, of course.” 

“Feel free to drop by anytime.”

[bootlegger9000]

❝ thank you. ❞ archer takes note of the recommendation, silently filing it at the back of his mind to check out further inside the library. some basic stuff, huh? archer figures he’ll pick up some more books when he’s already there, but anyway...

❝ ...you’re not a local, are you? ❞ he asks. making small talk is always useless, but it won’t hurt to talk to someone who’s not from around here like him. how long have they been here, if they know how they got here, do they know why they are here...it’d be a waste not to find out when he can.

“Has anyone ever told you you look really cool? Like some sort of superhero or something! Or…maybe a video game protagonist? Either way, super-duper cool!”

This is generally not something that you say to complete strangers, but Kokoro has never really been one for tact. At least she’s mostly staying still.

[bootlegger9000]

talk about getting caught off-guard. the girl’s exclamation is the last thing archer expects to hear in this park, but he supposes his strange get up ought to grab some unwanted attention. it’s time to invest on some new clothes, it seems.

❝ ...no one told me that yet, ❞ he admits, the corners of his lips tugging a little to form a small, exasperated smile. he ignores the superhero part. ❝ i suppose it’s the clothes. ❞

archer, despite priding himself with his cooking, isn’t a baker.

see, cooking and baking are two different things. while archer has his fair share of pastries and desserts made, he still particularly favours cooking. maybe it’s the difference in methods, even though the end results are just the same: food that people enjoy eating.

or, maybe, he’s just not that fond of sweets himself. who knows.

---despite that fact, though, when archer is asked by the restaurant’s manager if he knows his way around sweets, he still says yes, and then, well, he’s handed oven mittens.

❝ our patissier had an emergency that needs attending to. don’t worry, you’ll be paid extra for this. ❞

and so archer finds himself in charge of the cakes for the day.

it’s afternoon, and he’s carefully sliding yet another finished cake ( it’s strawberry cream castella. he kind of outdid himself today, huh? ) into the glass display in the restaurant’s small bakery corner when something---or rather, someone catches his eye.

he looks outside the window and finds a girl looking at him, or is it the cake? either way, he simply tilts his head to the side, curiously eyeing her. potential customer, maybe?

@bootlegger9000 LIKED FOR A STARTER!

“Welcome to the town library, “ he placed a bunch of books on the table, looking at the person in front of him. “What do you need? I can help if it’s about the town or other things.” 

[bootlegger9000]

of course archer would end up in a library. that’s already a scenario begging to happen as soon as he realised he needs to figure out what kind of place this is. he already knows what it is that he needs even before the librarian in front of him asked the question.

❝ reading materials about this place, ❞ he replies,  ❝ any would do: history books, magazines... ❞ he trails off for a second, then, ❝ actually, what can you tell me about the town? ❞ 

[bootlegger9000]
