Finally got a job to juggle with college, so life has been chaotic as hell as of late. I'll try to get a post out tomorrow.

The sudden collision whilst turning a corner certainly caught Tiral off guard, and though by no means was he taken off balance, the unfortunate person who he had bumped into had . With a slight reflexive step backwards in surprise, the mage watched as a bunch of book all came tumbling down in front of him. Though he managed to assess the situation in time to rescue two or three of them, 'two or three' wasn't all of them. With a bit of a frown, the mage glanced at the one bringing the books to wherever they were headed.
A member of Fanilly's maid brigade. Not particularly the best opponent for a game of strategy.
"Well, having a tower of books in front of your eyes would certainly make it seem that way," he responded, kneeling down to help pick up the books from off the floor. "Where were you headed to with these, anyhow? And why so many at once? On your own?"
His prying was, admittedly, unnecessary, but at this point most anything would sate his boredom.

Kumozaki Keisuke
The sudden barrage of lasers raining down from above was enough of a reason for the Enforcer to take a few cautionary steps back, barely avoiding getting tagged by one of the lasers himself. Though he could curse Nobunaga's relative lack of aim later, the fact that he would have to try and rush through a bombardment to try and catch up to Medea was more than enough reason to decide to not do so. Instead of doing something so suicidal, Keisuke decided to simply back off, pulling out the phone that was now furiously buzzing from his pocket to see what the issue was. Luckily, most of the skeleton soldiers in his immediate vicinity were being evaporated by the Servant flying overhead, but this was still a battlefield, and that meant giving at least some respect to the stray projectile that might shave off a few hairs... Or worse.
With a quick glance over the device, Keisuke sighed and slipped it back into his pocket. He had to admit that this whole scenario was something of a mess at the moment, but getting the Servants to not kill Medea? That might be... A bit more difficult than it was on paper. Even so, there was no reason for him to not try anyways.
"Message from the city: don't kill Medea. Disarm and disable is the ideal scenario."
With that message sent, all that he could do now was sit back and wait to see if the outcome of the duel would end in their favor or not.
Medea
"I care considerably less about them, but resources are resources," the Caster quipped before being tackled straight onto the ground after losing her altitude. The Servant felt her back digging into the ground as Atalanta kept her arms locked firmly to the ground. With her staff tumbling out of her grip as the two screeched to a halt, Medea barely turned her head to the side before letting out a sigh of defeat.
Just a few more seconds and she would have been able to make it out. What a shame.
"Hmph. That pride of yours still hasn't waned, I see. Fine, fine. I concede. I'll tell you what you wish, though it might have been more productive for you to see for yourself. But first, a question: did you not think it strange that I was provoking you? That only the city was in flames, and no more?"
Before Atalanta could respond in turn, Medea continued on, shaking her head as if in disappointment.
"Actually, maybe this question would serve you better. Did you know that the Gods have been unable to tamper with this era, bound by some force beyond their control? The heroes they wished to bend to their will now move for another... And though I loathe any mention of those so-called 'heroes', I cannot stand the thought of someone else playing with lives, both mortal and not, for their own benefit. It is for that sake that I act—far less ruthless than I might otherwise, but that is irrelevant for the moment. Well, what of you, dearest Atalanta? Though you claim to have been able to kill me at any time that you wanted, you have not done so, even though you constantly refer to me as a traitor even now. Even so, your eyes are unclouded, full of mistrust they may be—do you choose to follow and see what I refer to, or will you strike me down here and now?"
Ozymandias
Before returning back into the burning city once more, the pharaoh paused to watch as the formerly-incapacitated Servant rolled out of Nero's arms and onto the ground below, causing him to cautiously raise his staff...
Only to lower it once he saw that the Servant was not in any particularly aggressive mood as she had been moments earlier. This was strange, of course, but even he was not apt to take a blessing for granted, and thus decided to stand by and watch the spectacle unfold just in case.
The blindfolded Servant, on the other hand, seemed to stare at Nero (or would be, if her blindfold wasn't blocking her eyesight) in confusion for a moment before shaking her head and letting her arms relax at her side.
"I... Do not know what you speak of. My mind is as much a blur as far as I can remember, save for..."
As those last words slipped out of her mouth, the Servant's body immediately tensed up and she turned towards the west, a noticeable frown and creased brow as any clear for all to see.
"My sisters! I have to get back to them now!" she began to say before beginning to dash off. As before, though, without full control over her ability to move, she simply fell over again onto the ground.
Ozymandias simply stood by and watched the farce for only a few seconds more before stepping forward to give his own input.
"I shall leave these sphinxes behind to aid in extinguishing these flames if we decide to go see what this Servant means. Though that in turn begs the question... You. What is your true name? We have had statements in passing, but no more; I wish to hear it straight from the source, so to speak. The pharaoh commands it: state thy name."
At that, the female Servant flinched and, with a bit of hesitation, began to speak.
"...Rider, Medusa. I care not what you do with me after, but for now, my sisters—!"

Well, I mean, Centralfiction 2.0 just got released on Steam, so... :D
Playable Jubei finally.
And to be fair, the story of BlazBlue is... All over the place lol. Too much timeline hopping.
>mained Jin before CF, went to Izanami, trying to figure out whether or not to stick with her after nerfs

@Riegal: Radioing in to say that if you don't give me a heads up on your current situation, I'm gonna be moving ahead late Thursday... So roughly 60 hoursish later. So yeah.

@KoL: I think the best way to simplify it is...
1. Hans picks a target to write about
2. Hans wipes his book clean (cuz he can only buff one person at a time).
3. Hans writes. Depending on how much he writes, the target either gets anything from minor bonuses to going full Kiara.
Stories aren't stored, so... Yeah. Problems.
@SaveusY2J: I mean... I guess that explanation kinda works. Add it all in, and I'll see about it when it's not almost 1 in the morning.

@KoL: I'm gonna say no on that simply because it creates far too many issues to deal with on a case-by-case basis. The biggest issue, of course, is that there's no way to differentiate 'real' from 'game', but there's also character reasons... Namely, the fact that Hans without his NP is super dead weight (and it basically means you'd be sacrificing him for your own character to get that stuff). Y'know, cuz that's just how that NP works. There's also the issue of writer's block and all the associated issues (like learning the personality of that person, buffing a person for no good reason, etc;).
Lotsa reasons as to why that prob ain't gonna fly.

@SaveusY2J: There's more to it than that, honestly. Trap of Argalia is a big anti-Servant weapon because of its function specifically TOWARDS Servants; it makes them 'fall' because that's just how the myth works out, which ends up manifesting as how you see it in Apocrypha. It's just a big lance otherwise afaik, though strengthened by the fact that it's an NP. None of the usual fancy stuff. Just a big ol' lance.
...Which is a problem, considering that against beings with a more concrete form (read: not Servants), it cannot return anything to 'spiritual form' because they do not have a spiritual form. Yeah.
La Black Luna is also an issue because a) not defining what 'less HP' means and b) not defining things like range, duration, etc;.

@Dezuel: Hey, yo, quick request: Could you not use that font color for Menomaru's dialogue? Dark purple on this background is nigh impossible to read unless people highlight the text (I almost guarantee you I can't read that on mobile). Thanks.
@Dezuel: The sword changes do not change my own statement on 'accepted'. The clarity changes are also good enough, so accepted.
And the new form... Yeah, I don't see any problems. Also accepted.
@SaveusY2J: You're talking in terms of Servants and HP, which doesn't necessarily work for the purposes of this RP. Like... Stabbing a normal person (or, well, a being not of spiritual/magical origin) with Trap of Argalia wouldn't take out the entire leg, now would it? That sorta argument.
