Six Sentence Swednsday
Tagged by @certified-anakinfucker
Li Shuwen’s deep voice made Waver jerk a bit, looking up at the bank to see the redhead slide down next to him.
“Apologies, Caster’s Master had been in a heavily populated area. I had to drag him off so not to cause a scene,” the man apologized before he shifted the bundle in the purple shirt a bit. “I also have claimed these for you, Master.”
Einzburn’s gasp registered in his head before Waver even realized what was being presented to him.
A perfectly severed arm, from just below the shoulder on down with three command seals still glowing faintly on the hand.
Tagging uhhhh @tombraxas @spacerocksarethebestrocks @ssoundwavee + anyone who wants
So rereading fate/zero fics and just came up with super dumb servant swaps for the first war.
Basically Waver summons Gilgamesh...and Gilgamesh looks at tiny little human and is like ‘I have had Waver for less than a day but if anything happens to him i’m killing everyone here’
Just Gilgamesh looking at small angry human and being like ‘this is hilarious I like you, you can stay’
Iskander gets summoned by Kayneth...only still doesn't like him and ends up still spending all his time around Waver because he’s interesting.
Gilgamesh coming back from buying wine: LEAVE MY MAGNUS ALONE MONGREL YOU HAVE YOUR OWN
Rider:Ah hello Archer what are you doing here?
Gilgamesh:I LIVE HERE LEAVE!
Iskander:Fine fine *picks up Waver and leaves*
Gilgamesh:PUT THE MAGNUS DOWN OR DIE *Gates of Babylon open*
Waver:...What even is my life?
Just overprotective Gilgamesh who has just adopted this small magnus, like showed up picked up waver and like ‘this is mine now’ and really doesn’t like that Rider keeps hanging around his magnus or that his magnus is getting a crush on said rider servant.
Diarmuid get’s summoned by Kairya and as soon as he finds out about Sakura is just like ‘....so forget the grail...we’re saving the kid’
Artoria is summoned by Tokiomi and is not fond of him...then finds out about Sakura and nopes out of his plans taking Rin with her.
Basically Diarmund and Artoria killing Zouken and then noping out of the grail war with Rin and Sakura.
Kiritsugu and Kirei summon assassin and berserker not sure which summons which (So either horde of assassins or one op berserker super protective over Irisviel) The 2 of them end up fighting of course the other servants and Magnus see and are like ‘yeah fuck that’ and just leave them to it.
Caster and Ryuunosuke are still being the worst and everyone teams up to kill them (sort of Rider goes and Kayneth can’t stop him because he only has so many command seals and he wasted them very quickly, and Kirei and Kiritsugu are just trying to kill each other)
The grail war sort of falls apart but in the best way.
This is really dumb but made me laugh.
Edit: some wording...my brain does not function at 2am
I can't stop thinking about those official (?) servant swap arts. The idea of Waver summoning Astolfo is so fascinating (in my mind it happened in a version of 4th War where Kayneth kept Iskander's mantle (probably summoned him as Lancer) and Kiritsugu got Mordred). Can we have some bonding between the "weak" boys?
They both survived their Grail’s War so I’m pretty sure they aren’t weak at all and could be an interesting team.
Steven Universe AU where;
Pearl worked under White Diamond the entire time,
Spinel was part of the Crystal Gems from the very beginning (including being PD’s secret keeper), and
Pink Pearl (PP) was the one that waited at the garden for 6,000 years
I’ll call it something dumb like “Servant Swap”. Like, you know, because of their relationship with PD/Rose Quartz.

Ok this was long but only because I'm so busy this semester (my senior year).
So yeah, the DiaWave art is done! I want to say a big thank you again to the person who gave me this amazing story and inspired me to draw this art - @seer0ftime (on Tumblr). Thank you for "For Want of a Relic" - it's an amazing fic, it got me through a tough time, and it's a really amazing story! You're an amazing author and you did an amazing job! If you haven't read it guys, you really should, it's worth it!
I'm not very good at drawing, and especially not coloring, and I didn't really think of doing it at all, but I wanted to add a sunrise in the background, but I'll attach the line version, but I hope you like it!

There are no doubts that the Lancer of this Grail War would protect his Master.
And now there are no doubts that the Lancer of this Grail War is a bit more bloodthirsty than any of them expected him to be.
