Who: Avenger, Waver, Saber, Bazett
When: 26 Jan
Where: Along the castle
What: Avenger has half of his powers back, everything is awful.
Warnings: Violence, loss of autonomy

[Waver had walked away from the fight at the castle. He had only dared to go near it when his circuits cleared some - the first time in months

Once there, he had found his suit folded neatly in a chest, alongside his beloved red coat, and yellow scarf. Putting them back on felt more powerful than having his magecraft back. He was himself again, for the first time in months. Not entirely, there were little naggling things in his head, but he'd take what he could get.

He fiddles with his scarf as he leaves the building again, taking no time to explore. His patience is still too thin, overriding curiosity. He can head back to his house and see what his limits are.]

[ ...

Aw man, did he break Bazett's lord? He did, didn't he. That's... bad because she's going to be infuriated and she's going to yell at him and punch things—and she isn't going to forgive this mishap, is she. There's no way she will. And if his Master doesn't do that, then what's the point? Trapped, frustration, ugh. >:c

Might as well use what he's seemingly acquired. Avenger jerks his thumb at the door. ]

There's a lady out there who wants to see ya'. Get movin'.

[And with that, Waver moves. The motion's fluidity returns as he walks, although the first few steps that Saber sees will likely be familiar from the last time she had to face a man wearing grey-purple.

But getting moving is only one thing, and there's no sign of a threat. Yet.]

[Those steps are familiar-- but in a way she doesn't want them to be. She keeps her guard up, frowning.

Something isn't right. Why isn't Avenger making a show of this? He'd certainly seemed the type. Perhaps she'd assumed too much, but Waver's clothing is also strange.

This isn't right.]

...Waver?

[Waver stands still, only his eyes - now golden or hazel depending on the light, not their usual green - flick, resting on Saber.]

[Something is very, very wrong.]

Waver...

[Frustrated, she calls out.] Avenger! What have you done?!

[ He appeared on the roof, staring down at Waver's still figure and Saber standing at the ready in front of him. Alright, one, two, three. Deep breath. You can do this, easy as pie, Avenger.

/douches hard at her ]

Wellll...

You would do well to answer me, Avenger.

[Her tone is downright icy.]

What have you done to Waver Velvet.

Calm down a little, Saber.

[ He laughs, they'll need a villain, give them the villain. ]

Surprisingly, Waver Velvet does not die when he's killed! This time, anyway. [ Now is not the time for puns, you insane idiot. ]

Fix it.

[Saber is near growling, on the offense. She speaks through near-gritted teeth.]

Tell me how I can fix it, fix it yourself, or tell me who can fix this.

I can't.

[ Perched on the edge of the roof, Avenger shakes his head and points at Waver's motionless figure. ]

As far as I know, the process isn't reversible. [ Even by him, even when it was accidental. Largely, it was done to Heroic Spirits, not humans. ] Eh, though I guess... Death in this place would probably set him right.

And what exactly was your intent in the first place?! To kill him? To what end?!

Well, yes. I was actually aiming to kill him.

[ An annoyed sigh because he's figured it out by now, and that one little detail is endlessly irksome to him. ] Forgot about the fuckin' denizens...

Then not only are you so inept you cannot do as you set out to, but you wish me to finish your job?!

And what, in the first place, would his death have achieved?!

[ He blinks. ] One more, temporarily, dead human.

Well, you can leave him alone if you want! I'm not going to force your hand, Saber. [ He shrugs, unbothered by Saber's fury. ] He's just gonna suffer like this however. Humans aren't supposed to be given my sort of rage.

[ Broken magi BT ]

[Near incredulous, Saber stares at Avenger for a moment.]

You child. [Truly, not even a child would work so messily or cruelly in her mind, but 'moron' isn't quite well-used in her vocabulary yet.

Out of option, she produces her communicator and contacts Bazett.]

Bazett? It's urgent.

[It had taken a while for Bazett to find her items and flee the chaos of the castle. It was harder fighting in a body that she wasn't used to (though it was an interesting experience strangling minions with her now long hair). However, she had done it, and now she had her magecraft, items, and body back.]

[After putting on her suit, she had set out to find her lord and her Servant. However, she cannot see them anywhere inside the castle. Thus, she rushes out, trying to spot them in the surrounding forest. In the middle of searching for them, she almost misses the sound of an incoming message.]

[She flips the compact open, seeing Saber's face.]

What happened?

Edited (forgot that getting regains reverses changes) 2013-06-28 01:31 (UTC)

It's--

[Frustrated, Saber can think of no better way to explain than to turn the camera toward the storehouse, making sure Bazett has a clear view of Waver as he is-- and of Avenger.]

It's Waver.

[She stares at the feed. She knows Avenger and Waver didn't get along, and from Saber's tone, it sounded like something bad had happened. She feels her stomach churn from both anger and horror, but nothing shows on her face but a slight frown.]

Keep them both there. I'll be with you shortly.

[She shuts off the compact and sketches a runes of speed. She misses being able to go this quickly, but she is too preoccupied with thoughts of Waver and Avenger to enjoy it.]

[Content that Bazett is approaching, Saber turns her attention to Avenger.]

You have no idea how little your age concerns me when you act as you do.

[ Avenger is... not looking forward to Bazett's arrival. At all. It shows in the air of increased tension around him, even if he betrays it in no other ways. ]

Eh, still stiff as ever, Saber...

Do you expect me to find this humorous?!

[You've caused her friend a great deal of unnecessary suffering, Avenger.]

[ Avenger finds the most morbid of subjects funny. This is okay giggle material to him. He has to find it funny, or he'll go crazy.

Uh. Crazier, anyway. However, he understands that normal people with functioning moral compasses and rational reasoning patterns think otherwise. ]

... No?

Then why do you insist I react any differently!? Do you--

[She mustn't let rage get the best of her, so she stills her tongue. There is more to worry about here than a matter of humour.

She only hopes Bazett hurries.]

[ Doesn't understand. ]

Huh?

[ It was a remark that she was stiff! Like always! As expected! He can find it funny, she doesn't. Nothing else. ]
