FATE/GRAND ORDER

[spirithacker]

Seven Masters, magi of the present day. Seven Servants, heroes of days past...

...is what would normally happen with a Holy Grail War, but this is a different system and things are more complicated than that. The organization of Chaldea employs Masters who summon Servants, but they have more important tasks than fighting against each other: various pieces of the past have been destabilized into Singularities, and without Masters traveling into these Singularities to fix history, human civilization as we know it will cease to exist.

In the Chaldea system, one Master can summon many Servants who will fight alongside each other. Spirits who would never ordinarily work together can find themselves building up a rapport from many battles covering each others' backs. Evil Servants and good Servants can function on the same team for the same goals. Masters will bond with their Servants, trusting their lives and their futures to each other.

Besides the Servants who are summoned to fight and the Masters who travel into the Singularities themselves, Chaldea also employs a small staff. These are the doctors who make sure that Masters are in good condition before they head out, the technicians who make sure the machines are in good repair, the researchers who furiously investigate any weakness their enemies might have, and so on.

And in between saving the world, you can all live together in one building and have a little slice of extremely unusual life.

Instructions
1. Comment with your character. In the subject line, put that character's name, canon, and which role (Master, Servant, Staff, or any) you would like them to fulfill. Though not mandatory, it would be preferred that you give a brief summary of your character as they will (most likely) be AU'd into the setting. (If your character can fill the role of Servant, I suggest you state which class(es) - Saber, Lancer, Archer, Rider, Caster, Assassin, Berserker, or a more uncommon Extra class - they fall into.)
2. Reply to others' comments. Pick your character's role (and the other character's if they list "Any" as their preference).
3. I'm not putting in prompts because it's 2 AM and I don't want to.

Dignity is not a necessary part of treatment - that seems like something you might tell me.

[She's struggling fairly hard, but he's certainly not going to just put her down without a fight. He starts carrying her out of her office and toward her bedroom.]

[disinfection]

[It does sound like her. ...She's not gaining any ground, though.]

Ridiculous! This is utterly ridiculous. You lack the skill and experience to say what is part of a treatment and what isn't.

[curseseparated]

I could bring you to Dr. Roman and get his opinion if you prefer.

[And by "bring", he means "carry". Heedless of how embarrassing that would be to her.]

[disinfection]

[That would be the most medically sound decision.]

No... I think that won't be needed.

[But her pride protests too much for it.]

[curseseparated]

[Somehow, that's what he thought she'd say.]

If you'll agree to return to your room to rest, I'll put you down.

[He doesn't actually enjoy embarrassing her... that much.]

[disinfection]

[She believes him but she can't just accept it--]

If you bring me to my room, I'll stay there.

[She has no intention of resting.]

[curseseparated]

To rest?

[He's not hearing the most important part here, Florence.]

[disinfection]

If I said that, you wouldn't believe me.

[So she's not because a Nurse Doesn't Lie. ....in theory, anyway.]

[curseseparated]

No, I would believe you. You wouldn't lie to me.

[Which is probably why she didn't say it.]

In any case, since you can't promise that, I'll continue to carry you.

[disinfection]

[She flinches because it's true. She wouldn't and that's why she couldn't promise. Curses.]

You're right, I wouldn't.

[But now she's going to be carried around like a log.]

If you won't let me out of your sight at least transfer me to a private room. [Her pride, it aches.]

[curseseparated]

Certainly, I can do that for you.

[Normal locks aren't exactly deterrents to spirits, after all.]

[disinfection]

Thank you.

[She doesn't mind if he continues to carry her but at least do so in private.]

Now would you set me down?

[curseseparated]

[He sets her down. Turnabout might be fair play, but he really doesn't like carrying her around if she isn't actually on the edge of death like he was.]

[disinfection]

[It just wasn't safe for him to have been walking around! She might be close to her limits but even then she'd just fall asleep and not die.]

Thank you. [With a glance around she finds a suitable place to sit down.] Take a seat.

[curseseparated]

[Rama sits a respectful distance away. Already invaded her space enough for now.]

When was the last time you slept?

[disinfection]

[...]

Studies have shown that a healthy person can stay awake to eleven days before their body forces sleep on them. [Is she implying longer? Why, yes, yes she is.... Endurance A+, after all.] So, perhaps two weeks? It's been quite busy.

[curseseparated]

Please don't push your body to its limits outside an emergency situation.

[Yes, it's been busy, but it hasn't been so busy that she couldn't take a break.]

[disinfection]

I can't promise that.

[curseseparated]

Then I can't promise not to insist on you getting rest again. Forcefully, if I have to.

[disinfection]

You wouldn't be the first to say that.

[Though, it's a rare sentiment now that she's a Berserker.]

[curseseparated]

And not the last, I'm sure. Since I'm not the only one who cares for you here.

[disinfection]

You're one of the few brave enough to say it out loud.

[curseseparated]

Bravery isn't involved. I couldn't hide that even if I wanted to.

[disinfection]

[That gets a laugh out of her.]

I know. You're a good comrade.

[curseseparated]

[He is an open book and he knows it. And doesn't mind.]

Only because I have good comrades like yourself.
