landsharkbite​:

“… right here.”

You could use some helping hands when it comes to staying sharp, but there aren’t really any official buddy systems in place around here. All you can do is dive in, right? “I got a bad habit for collateral damage though, so not here. You wanna name a time and place?”

You do bring a hand to the hilt of the broadsword on your back just in case ‘yes’ and ‘no’ aren’t necessarily in this gal’s vocabulary.

     “oh, uh...”

     “do you have a weapon that won’t completely shatter these in a single clash?” musashi was referencing her two wooden blades, pointing them out. “i’m strong, but the physical integrity of wood makes defending against big, steel blades next to impossible.” alternatively if she could borrow some steel katanas from somewhere...

[lostbeltronin]

feroxtigris​:

“Ooh, ooh! Me, me! I don’t have a sword but I’m super strong! The Captain says I’m one of the strongest people in the whole Skydom!”

     “hmm... any combat experience is good experience. training against an unfamiliar weapon match up can always serve you in the future. so why not!? i have no idea what this skydom is, but i’ll assume it’s something important. what do you fight with?”

[lostbeltronin]

dreamsembrace​:

“Depends on what kind of duel or spar you’re looking for? Maaaybe wooden swords would be better?” He taps on the hilt of the Buster Sword.

“But yeah, I’m game if you are! Been a minute.”

     “of course i didn’t mean with steel blades! i mean have you seen what they give you when you come here?” she gestured to the wooden blades strapped to her hips. not exactly the memorable blades she was used to swinging around. “i mean you can probably crack a skull if you swing hard enough but these aren’t strong enough to really cut anything.”

     “so where are all the strong sword wielders at? wanna spar? a duel? just don’t whine when i kick your butt!”

hopeled​:

   “ Hey, I resent that! They’re not that scrawny– okay, maybe they are, but that doesn’t mean you should say it. “ and she rolls her eyes, laughing softly at the Saber’s attempt at showing off. 

  ah...that’s right. she was so caught up in the moment, of simply having fun and talking with Musashi, enjoying her presence, that she had forgotten: she wasn’t going to be there anymore. back home, in her world. the Servant known as Musashi Miyamoto was gone, now marked as ‘unknown’ by Chaldea. even thought her words were meant to be uplifting and comforting, it also served as a sobering reminder. 

      she wasn’t going to cry, of course, despite the sudden and intense urge to. this was supposed to be a fun occasion and Ritsuka had no intentions of bringing it down or worrying the other with her tears. she’s done enough crying already. but, even so, there’s still that tug at her heart, the familiar ache when she thought of those in her life now gone. 

     “Musashi– “ quickly does the mage pause in her steps, only to step in front of the Servant and wrap her arounds around her middle, grip tightening in a hug. Musashi was always a reliable one, someone Ritsuka knew she could always count on and believe in, no matter what. nothing would ever change that and even if that pain of losing her would always linger, she would believe in her words.  “ ….Thank you. “

     “...? whoa!?” they actually hadn’t talked about it yet. the events of  █ █ █ █ █ █ █, not since arriving here on their own. musashi hadn’t pressed it with anyone, not knowing what anyone remembered. she had plenty to be sad about, but for the sake of everyone else - for ritsuka, for mashu? saber had decided she would hide it for their sake. even now, as the master tightly hugged her, she was shocked but continued to smile even as she held the girl back.

     “i never confided this in anyone, but do you remember shortly after you arrived in shimousa? you fell from the sky! that was such a huge shock, especially since i wasn’t even a servant yet! but shortly after when we were attacked by berserker and rider right? you would have died then and there if not for inshun saving you. i... realized in that moment that my blades were useless if i couldn’t protect what was important to me.”

     musashi’s breaths were notably erratic. it was understandably since she was revisiting painful memories. even her right eye ached just thinking about shimousa. 

     “so what happened with chaos... i don’t regret that. i don’t regret being able to protect what was important to me in the end. you, the others of chaldea... i was just a punk ass girl that was tossed aside by her own father for the sin of being born a woman. i never really had a home before i met you, a family. i was just a brat cursed to wander time and space.” she suddenly dipped, holding the master a little closer against her body. “so don’t feel guilty. i was able to defend my home at the very end.”

     musashi pulled away very suddenly and gave her biggest smile, still holding ritsuka’s shoulders. it was clear the servant had sneakily wiped away some tears. “i’ll always be with you no matter what. this smile? it’s only for the people i truly love. it’s just for you and chaldea.”

colchiste​:

      ❛   — How is anyone supposed to understand what you’re saying ?   ❜   INSTANTANEOUSLY   her standoffish nature resurfaces — albeit with much less enthusiasm. This wasn’t the company she was quietly hoping for, but… 

      ❛   I’m not worried about finding a date. I simply… Wasn’t in the mood for festivities before.   ❜   A slight pause — gaze lingering on the food Musashi was busy shoving in her mouth. … It did look appetizing.   ❛   … I might be willing to visit a location or two. Where would you recommend starting ?   ❜

     musashi finally swallowed, the ronin blinking innocently in response to the caster’s outburst. “hmm? but you understood what i was saying anyways, right? so i don’t see the problem.” checkmate. maybe.

     “are you hungry? you keep looking at my food you know!” she waved a fork full of fries and gravy towards the witch. “they call this poutine apparently! it’s a delicacy in some place i’ve never heard of. did you wanna check out that booth and get your own?”

[lostbeltronin]

colchiste​:

       ❛   … Hm.   ❜

           SHE’S   been fixed to her phone’s screen ever since the scorching summer sun was eclipsed — but now she seems satisfied with some sort of outcome. Tucking her phone into her pocket, she says little else; but considering the aura that’s followed her like a darkened cloud, it was fairly obvious the moment it lifted. 

      ❛   Perhaps I’ll look more earnestly into some of these festivities…   ❜

      “there’s losh of good foodsh.” leave it to musashi to talk with her mouth full, but she did eventually swallow. “why the hesitation? a pretty woman like you could probably find a date easy, right? heck! come visit something with me.”

[lostbeltronin]

     “fathers aren’t like blades. my swords have done more for me than my shitty dad ever did.”

darksails​:

❛  aye, that’s right, saber ! ❜   he nods rather sagely in agreement,   ❛  how ‘bout you cover an eye with your bangs and i’ll take you out for a drink ?  ❜

     “eh? no way! then i wouldn’t be able to see properly! what if we were attacked?”

      “besides, that request gave me some rather unsavory vibes.”

FATE/GRAND ORDER: COSMOS IN THE LOSTBELT

[lostbeltronin]

laughs in new fgo opening

[lostbeltronin]

     “having fun by yourself is nice and all, but wouldn’t this festival be more exciting...”

     “with a date!?” sometimes, when you’re lonely, you say stupid things.

[lostbeltronin]

faepact​:

       ❝  I-I just … wasn’t expecting that …  ❞  she mutters,  thinking about what had just happened.  nonetheless,  she’s grateful for the rescue.  ❝  It’s something definitely superhuman …  ❞  a servant,  huh?  that certainly can’t mean what she thinks it means.  that is a question for another time. 

       ❝  That sounds lovely,  actually.  ❞  Manako perks up a bit.  the thought of satisfying her empty belly with some company sounds particularly refreshing.  ❝  I hope this isn’t too much,  though.  First you get me out of a sticky situation,  and then …  ❞  a scratch at the back of her head,  ❝  well,  this?  I’m the one that needs to repay you,  Musashi.  ❞

     “i guess you’d be even more confused if you knew the name miyamoto musashi before meeting me, but i’m guessing your world isn’t anything like the earth i know.” since musashi was supposed to be a man, anyone familiar with his legacy was quick to call her on that right away. mana of course had never even batted an eyelash at her identity which implied she had no knowledge to the contrary.

     saber immediately made the peace sign with her finger when her friend agreed to hang out. “victory! what do you feel like eating? i wouldn’t worry about it too much, i’m just a wanderer after all. not like i have any real plans or anything, so you can just repay me with that pretty little smile of yours.”

     “on that subject did something good happen? you look a little more chipper than last we talked.”

sanpatron​:

Oh he definitely wasn’t here of his own free will. To tell you the truth he’d rather be at home or at work, doing just about anything to drown out the misery that continues to plague his mind. The only reason he’s even here in the first place was due to a particular redhead strongly suggesting (aka dragging him by the arm) that he get out and have some fun to improve his mood.

And while he appreciates the concern—trust me, he does—The Boss can’t help but feel that maybe going somewhere with this amount of high energy was probably not the best call. At least that woman leaping around was having a good time. Not sure why she’s targeting him of all people, but he’ll just take the shot.

“ Huh? ” he replies back, his tone lacking any sign of life. “ Oh.. you got me. ”

    “you’re a whole barrel of laughs huh?” musashi’s smile quickly turned into a frown, a sigh following after. here she was with a big nerf gun equipped with rapid fire, a gatling gun of squishy hell, and the only real target wasn’t even interested in getting shot. if she’d been shooting him and he’d been frustrated enough to shoot back then that would be a different story, but alas. actually how well would a nerf gun work in a zero gravity environment? probably not well.

     “if you’ve got a stick up your ass then isn’t this the best place to be? see?” she bounced off the ground and just continued drifting upward without any gravity to hold her down. “you can floooooooooooat!”
