Log:
[ In the front of the Breeding Centre of Goldenrod City, there's a small stage placed down. On said stage is one microphone stand and one Souji Seta with his Riolu pawing at him. Pick up, pick upppp. Hold on, audience. ]

Not now, Setanta. I promise later.

[ Whoops, sorry about that. Just having to deal with a shy Pokemon. It's just going back inside the centre to mope until dinner time. So, turning his attention back to the audience, Souji clears his voice. ]

Thanks again for signing up for the game of paintball, guys.

The game is simple: be the last team standing and then be the last person standing in the final round. I've sent out a text to everyone on what team you should be on, but if you've forgotten, I have a chart up here for you to check. [ Pointing his thumb back at a sheet of paper taped to some whiteboard stand. ]

For some teams, due to uneven numbers, we have these four Pikachus that will be playing along... [ At that exact moment, four Pikachus holding paintguns walk up. They look pretty intimidating. All of them are wearing their team colour scarves over their mouths and they look like they're ready to tear someone's face off. One of them has an eye-patch, another is wearing some glasses, and the last one is... is that one smoking a cigar? ] Apparently, they're really good at paintball for some reason. [ Souji is looking like this right now, so he has no idea. ]

[ A-Anyway... ] I've also sent out a list of rules to your gears, but once again, if you've forgotten, check out the stand. Main points are that the use of Pokemon in the game are forbidden except for the four Pikachus here and you can't enter any buildings to get onto the roofs.

So, grab your team colours on the table beside the stand-- [ He points to it. ] --and a paintball gun from the table next to it. All guns must be returned at the end of the game, but if you want to keep it, just find me at the end of the game to pay for it.

Paintball refills are over at this stage as well or at the Pokemon Centre. Those are the only two neutral zones, so you can't shoot others there. There's also refreshments, but don't take too long of a break.

Well, that's enough from me. Grab a gun, goggles or sunglasses, and team colour.

In ten minutes when the clock strikes noon, let the game begin.

[ Go for it! ]


(( ooc: Remember, teams are posted right over here! Please go check on what teams you're on and you can continue using that post to plot around, or you can go in for a surprise and just ask who might be in or out in the subjects. Winners, please go comment with the prize that you want! ))

(( Rules/points are both here and here in bullet points. Please reread them and if you got any questions, give me a pm or ask over at the second ooc post under the 'QUESTIONS/CONCERNS/ETC' thread! ))

(( Backtagging is what we're all about, people! So, backbackbackbacktag, and it doesn't matter if you tag in prose or action tags. Just go with whatever you feel best with! So, enjoy the free paintball game, guys! ))

Well, your name is pretty weird too! Mine is pretty unique, if I do say so myself.

I wasn't human before coming here, so there's a reason for it being so cool.

HGNGNG SORRY THIS IS SO LATE LIFE ASDFGGl revenge fuel is go

[quickattackjack]

_{[Jack made a little bow before her as thanks. When he stood back up, his Serious Business Face had returned and he aimed squarely at her middle.]}

Pow.

_{[And fired.]}

I'm going to have to burn these clothes, they smell like a dumpster.

_{[WELL WHO'S FAULT IS THAT, MR. BOND?]}

>D

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

{Have a small yelp, because that shit stings from close range.}

...you know, you didn't have to jump in the dumpster. That possibility is also why I bought clothes that I could dispose of afterwards.

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

...I wouldn't say mine is weird, just a little different.

Ah, you too? There seems to be quite a few non-humans here...

[abdications]

Nope! I'd say it's weird. But in a good way!

Well, we're all human now. You can't figure it out at a glance unless people tell you like I did!

[ex_cashcow493]

Ah. [ She was kind of hoping the topic wouldn't come up. ] It is a troubling tale. I suppose if I am to tell it to anyone, you would be the one most suited for it. There is a boy in this place whom you must keep this from however.

[ Taking in a deep breath, her fingers grip the rifle firmly. ]

My Master in the Fourth Holy Grail War was fond of guns as were his associates. The Grail provided me with the information relevant to their use so that I may not be ignorant to what my Master preferred.

[mimicofthewind.livejournal.com]

Now I am.

[ :D ]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

... So all I had to do was shoot you, huh.

[mimicofthewind.livejournal.com]

... You make it sound like something so cruel.

[restardom.livejournal.com]

You made it sound cruel first!

[mimicofthewind.livejournal.com]

That's because I fell for your trap.

[restardom.livejournal.com]

Ehe. ♥

[mimicofthewind.livejournal.com]

But a loss is a loss even if I don't like to admit it.

[ Chuckling a bit. ]

[dragonspeak]

A boy? [Suddenly feeling perturbed. He’d thought Lancer was the only one Saber knew in Johto.] There’s someone else from your world here?

[ex_cashcow493]

Yes. His name is Shirou Emiya.

[ 'His father was the cruel bastard who I will never forgive.' ]

There is also a girl here who is from my time. Her name is Rin Tohsaka. [ Her lips turn up in a smile at the name. ] She is rather bold and ruthless. Even with that sort of nature, she is loving. Prior to my arrival, she was my Master.

[dragonspeak]

She summoned you, right? [It's still odd to think that anyone could summon the destined king like this--but Merlin guesses being called in times of need is an honour in itself.

He lowers the paintball gun slowly. He wonders if it ever gets...lonely and tiring.] Why don't you want me to tell Shirou about this?

[ex_cashcow493]

No, Shirou did. During our time in the Holy Grail War, he lost what bound me to him. He was attacked and naturally, I stood to defend him.

[ Even though it nearly cost her her life. No one was ever going to harm Shirou Emiya. Not even himself. ]

Rin saw an opportunity to rejuvenate me and to turn the battle favorable odds. I formed a pact when she called for me and she became my Master then.

[ Saber doesn't close her eyes fully (there are enemy teams around the two), but the lids do fall a bit. ]

Because I do not want him to know much of that man nor my time spent with him.

[dragonspeak]

[Though Merlin absorbs the tidbits of Arturia's life quietly, noting the importance of Shirou and Rin, he can't keep silent when he says something like that.]

This other Master...he did something to you? [His tone takes on an edge as he instinctively shifts closer to her.]

[ex_cashcow493]

He did.

[ She leaves it at that. ]
