12th Trace

[inb4gar]

[All day and up to late night yesterday and today, Shirou wasn't around as much as he'd used to when walking in town and doing whatever routines he had done before. To whomever came by or live near 342 Brady Lane would hear hammering and occasional muffled gripes and complains due to said hammer hitting a thumb or something of the like

-Soldier is always watching. Always watching.-

[inb4gar]

[I am totally not getting any oh-shit vibes at all. Really.]

[unless_itsafarm]

The HELL are you doing, boy?

[inb4gar]

[Geh! That voice will always grate on his nerves.]

I'm doing exactly what it looks like I'm doing.

[Saber is always watching. ALWAYS WATCHING.]
[But she also happened to be walking by. (she totally doesn't do this quite frequently at all...s-stupid.)]

Shirou...what on earth is all of this?

[inb4gar]

[Creeper Saber is oddly an adorable Saber. Also, he'll look over his shoulder and removing his hands away from the target stands.]

Oh, Saber. You're out pretty late tonight. And these are targets for a small archery range back here. I've promised to help someone to train them in archery, so I've decided to make this here instead of waiting about it. So, what do you think?

[arturia_pen]

[Saber just goes ahead and hops the fence, giving his archery range a look.]

Seems a bit shoddy, but it appears as if it will hold.

Who have you promised to train in archery?

[inb4gar]

Well I was trying to make it look as close as the ones back home as best I could, so I'm hoping that it'll at least withstand a month or two.

And that would be my sister, you would say. There is a new girl living with us in this house and instead of having her use a gun, I'm going to at least help her with archery instead. She knows a little bit already so it'll make things easier and I'll leave the gun business to... that guy.

[Watching very quietly. Almost like a hawk.]

[inb4gar]

[BRB, TRACING ON STILL.]

[crawlininmytome]

[Feeling out your magic. That didn't sound weird at all.]

[inb4gar]

[He'll be stepping away now and wiping the sweat from his forehead. Reinforcement and projection magic does take a lot out of you when you're an amateur magus.]

There, that ought to do it at least for a while. Just gotta do some finishing touches up in the morning and then it's all done.

[wise_king]

[Implying Merem isn't watching your Magusing

but not as secret as everyone else]

[inb4gar]

[So should I imply that vampire priest is hovering behind me or something?]

Just a little bit more...

[wise_king]

[If only humans could hover.]

Reinforcement magic?

[inb4gar]

[Caster... sort of counts? Assuming if you can even call her human in her first life. Also, someone talking + knowing what Shirou is doing = WHIPPING RIGHT AROUND AND FINDING OUT WHO IS NEAR BY.]

Who's there?!

[hasyourbeats]

[Walking by! ...Then stopping to stand and watch you like everyone else. She's been doing that quiet staring thing ever since she showed up in Mayfield recently.]

[inb4gar]

[Oh that's fine. As long as she isn't out to kill him, then he's good to go! And you might want to pull up a chair since he'll be standing there doing his thing for a bit longer.]

Almost there... needs a little bit more mana poured into it and it should be good.

[hasyourbeats]

...

[Kanade doesn't need to pull out a chair! She can keep standing here quietly, watching. Always.]

[inb4gar]

There. That should do it!

[Stepping away from the targets and wiping his forehead.] No matter how many times I've done this, it still takes a lot out of me. I guess I should keep up with my own training at this rate.
