[Momiji sure was weird and absolutely not a god of misfortune, that's for sure. She'd asked if she could use her room for a few hours for something, and Ran just assumed it was space to goof off in away from Ichiko. She does think of the two as friends, but that kind of aggressive relationship must get tiring sometimes...
But when she got home from school, the place was in a huge mess. There was...is that ink? Was she drawing on the fucking floor? What is all this...it looks like something out of an anime.
What's surprising is the fact she isn't here though, not the mess itself. Girl never cleared up after herself but she was very sociable, so she at least expected her to linger and keep her company while she cleaned. Sometimes she could even convince her to help!...sometimes. It's hard to say no to Ran but not impossible for someone so lazy.]
That damn Momiji...[With a sigh, she tosses her schoolbag onto her bed, kicks her geta off and starts to walk across the room.] I better get this cleared up before pop gets home.
[GEE WHIZZ I SURE HOPE I DON'T STAND ON A SUMMONING CIRCLE AND A SERVANT TOTALLY MATERIALIZES.]
[DID SOMEONE SAY SUMMONING AND A SERVANT? BECAUSE THAT'S TOTALLY WHAT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.
The very second Ran steps on the circle, the dull red lines that make up various symbols begin to glow. Light erupts from the markings as electricity sparks off of them. The bolts crackle loudly and move toward the middle, as if being sucked in by an unseen force. After a few seconds, a silhouette made out of the red lightning can be seen. Before it takes any true kind of shape, a bolt shoots out from the "figure" and strikes Ran's hand, leaving a set of markings on it.
Finally, the lights gathering in the middle become too much and expand outward, covering everything with a blinding flash. Once it finally fades, a shower of rose petals descend from the ceiling onto...hey who is that anyway???]
[Yeah, that was something alright...throughout the whole process Ran just stands there surprised, but it's a fairly mild kind of surprise, as if someone just called her name down the street and she wasn't expecting it, rather than her room becoming some kind of do-it-yourself lightshow. She doesn't even think to look at her hand until after it's over, but it's because she doesn't want something unexpected happening and distracting herself; it's quite obvious something's there. She can feel it.
What memorable first words. No doubt Saber shall carve them into her soul and treasure them forever. Ah, but first she should confirm. There doesn't seem to be anyone else here, but...]
Tell me... [She starts, taking a few steps forward.] ...are you my praetor?
[Surely she knows what that means. Nevermind that it's not the right teminology...]
No! Wrong! Incorrect! I did not say "Peter". I said praetor! P! R! A! E! T! O! R! Pra-et-or! It is a title fitting only for the one who summoned me! So I ask ask; are you the one who brought me here?
[...okay. This isn't exactly preferable, but she can't complain. This is still salvageable.]
Typically? No. But accidental summons do occur. Such an incident must have been the cause of my appearance, but worry not! You gaze upon the glorious visage of one who holds the Saber class! My blade shall fall anyone who dares oppose you on our quest for the Grail!

Date: 2015-09-21 10:44 pm (UTC)No, it's okay. She knows exactly what saber said!]
Um...it's Ranmaru, not Peter. You probably won't find too many people with that name around here anyway...
Are you from overseas?
I didn't forget. I just needed to stop laughing at "Peter". It took me this long.

Um, well. I stepped on the circle- [She points down to it.] -and you showed up- [And she points to Nero.] -so...
...I guess? Is that how it's supposed to work?
i'm as predictable as they come
