Fuyuki, Emiya Home:
Chiyu is nestled sound asleep in her new cat bed that Shirou had gotten for her down in the living room while Shirou is just stirring for the day, one hand tangled in Hisa's hair while the other has her pulled on top of him. His grip on her tightens slightly as awareness returns to him. Taking a quick look at the clock on his bedside table shows that it was just after five in the morning. He slips out of bed, tucking the sheets tightly around his girlfriend when she shivers from the loss of his body heat. He grabs his training clothes, toiletry kit, and a clean school uniform before heading to the dojo. He changes quickly so he can get his training done for the day. If he could get some time with just his three girls, student, girlfriend, and little sister then they could train in their other forms as well. He did converse mentally with Magical Carnelian to learn more about the item's abilities and quirks. Zelretch had actually made a non perverted item, mostly because he knew Hisa was a troll on his level.
Shirou had been stunned when he found out about that side to her. She loved April Fools' Day, the only time she pranked him. There were rumors about certain people finding foul substances in their lockers, adult items, or one memorable occasion their school uniform going missing while in gym class. While Hisa wouldn't defend herself she did tally up offenses against her, and then unleashed pranking hell upon those that tormented her. The rare times Hisa was in full on troll mode including a cackle that sent fear down Fuji-nee's spine did something else to him. The first time he heard that cackle had been the first time he'd gone to second base with Hisa. That cackle turned him on like nothing else could.
How it was Friday already Shirou didn't know, the days had flown by this week. It didn't hurt that Chiyu was a certified therapist on her home planet. Talking about the things they couldn't with their normal therapist helped the couple immensely.
Tohsaka Manor:
Sakura was already up and working with Magical Morganite. She knew damn well that her older sister was not a morning person. Any true Magus took advantages where they could get them. When she received Magical Morganite she had asked Zelretch for information on the first four Grail Wars. Finding out how little morals most masters had sickened her. When the next war hit, and she knew damn well it was coming far sooner than it should she would enter into an alliance with Shirou-senpai and Hisa-san. She'd woken up from a very interesting dream where both Shirou and Hisa were doing very intimate things with her. Sakura had known she was attracted to Shirou-senpai, but Hisa-san as well. She hadn't even known she batted for both teams until that dream!
The purple haired girl shakes those thoughts away before refocusing on her ability to use Magical Morganite to her full potential. Bigamy was not allowed in Japan so she would have to put aside her attraction to her senpai and his girlfriend. She could fantasize, but never act upon her lust. Sakura would never dream that what she had dreamed about the previous night could come true depending upon what happened in the next few years.
Emiya Home:
Shirou has just finished making breakfast, and getting it on the table when he goes to the foot of the stairs to catch his girlfriend. He winces when he feels the heat radiating from her before carrying her to the couch. He calls both schools to call them off, then he calls Sakura and Taiga to inform them that Hisa and himself would not be going to school that day. They could still come over for breakfast though. Once that was handled Shirou goes to get a bowl of cool water and a washcloth. As he wipes his feverish girlfriend's forehead down he frowns thoughtfully, come to think of it Hisa may suffer from her period and migraines, but she had yet to be seriously sick.
He was all too well versed in Hisa on her period, which always hit around the waxing crescent phase. The week before he made damned sure there was Ibuprofen and Midol in the house, along with dark chocolate. Unlike most boyfriends he learned the little things that eased things for Hisa very quickly. The only time there had been no pain medication in the house had left an impression. He'd sent one of Raiga's men to go get some Kami be damned Midol before he unleashed her upon them. The mere thought of dealing with a teenaged girl on her period without pain meds sent the man running at top speed to get the required pain meds. That particular man's wife had been pregnant at the time Shirou had learned later. That thought gives him pause, the mere notion of Hisa being pregnant was terrifying and exciting all at once.
Sakura and Taiga arrive at the same time, letting themselves in, " How is she, Shirou-senpai? " Sakura asks.
" While I haven't taken her temperature yet she does have a fever. Fuji-nee, can you get me the Temporal thermometer? "
" Sure thing, Shirou. " Taiga says while Sakura eats her breakfast.
" You can take one of our bentos if you need to, Sakura. Since we live alone it's better I stay home to take care of her. " Shirou says before grabbing his phone and texting Issei to get his assignments for him.
Taiga hands him the thermometer even as he hands her his homework, " I'll give you Hisa-chan's as well so you can turn it in for her. Also get her assignments for the day before you come home. Issei will bring mine home. I need some guy time anyhow. "
Taiga nods and Shirou curses under his breath when he gets the read out, 38.7 degrees celsius. " This is going to be a long day, get me the Ibuprofen, and a glass of warm water, Fuji-nee. "
Taiga had seen the read out and understood why Shirou was being so curt with her at the moment. Shirou takes the time to dip the washcloth into the cool water, wring it out, and re-apply it to Hisa's forehead. Shirou gently coaxes Hisa into a state of awareness even as he's handed the requested items. Once Hisa has taken the two little pills he lets her rest once more. " Shirou, I could stay and watch her. " Taiga suggests.
" I'd be too worried to focus at school anyhow, Fuji-nee. " Shirou says, his uniform jacket getting tossed onto a coat rack nearby.
Taiga nods at this as she sits down to eat her own meal. Sakura finishes her breakfast and grabs the bento Shirou had made for Hisa while also grabbing an ice-cube tray, she hands the tray to Shirou before taking her leave. Shirou empties the ice-cube tray into the dish of water, that would keep the water cooler for longer. He was in for a rough time as he hated to see Hisa suffering. He does grab Hisa's homework as well, giving it to Taiga. Once the older woman had left as well the redhead cleans up from breakfast before settling down beside the couch though he does freshen Chiyu's food and water dishes. The seventeen year old grabs the remote before turning the tv on. Finding an InuYasha marathon he leaves that on before wiping down his feverish girlfriend's face and neck. He hoped the fever reducing part of the Ibuprofen kicked in soon.
Shirou loses himself in the monotony of battling to lower Hisa's body temperature, startling when Chiyu settles on his lap, " Finally wake up, Chiyu-san? "
" Hai, how is she? "
Shirou sighs and shakes his head, " I may have to put her in a cold bath if this keeps up, her temperature went up by two tenths to 38.9 degrees. "
Unknown to Shirou was the fact his girlfriend was quite literally fighting for her life. Queen Serenity IV was not happy with the fact that her daughter was not following the plan she had laid out for her.
Mindscape:
Princess Serenity V dodges yet another magical blast from her mother before standing tall and proud, " Did you honestly think I was going to go along with your madness? I never even liked Endymion! " Her mindscape was the Lunar Palace and grounds, which did not help her in this case as her mother knew them just as well as she did.
She bats aside the next blast sent her way, " You little bitch, you obviously do not know what is best for you or our Queendom! "
" I understand perfectly well what our Queendom needed, you not on the Hades be damned throne. You should never have been on the throne to begin with as you had no idea how to rule properly. I spent three-quarters of my time going around and fixing your fuck ups! " Princess Serenity snaps, she was wearing a red version of her preferred gown, on her wrist is the bracelet given to her by Shirou, the one reason she hadn't succumbed yet.
" How dare you! Everything I did was for the betterment of our people! "
" What the fucking hell have you been getting high on anyhow?! The people were miserable, the visiting dignitaries all mocked you behind closed doors, your own court couldn't stand you, and you could never keep a lover, could you? That right there should have told everyone what kind of person you were. High lunar royal women could only ever take on one willing male lover! How many did you fuck anyhow to get what you wanted. You did everything for the betterment of you! " Princess Serenity snaps, firing off her own magical blast.
Queen Serenity erects a silver shield causing her daughter to curse and send out a mental plea for help from any of her senshi.
Exit Mindscape:
Time Gates:
Sailor Pluto is almost bowled over by the strength of her Hime's plea for help. She locks down the Gates before allowing herself to collapse backwards. As the senshi governing time/space she could enter mindscapes with permission, which she had. The viridian haired senshi braces herself for anything.
Princess Serenity's Mindscape:
Sailor Pluto's eyes widen in horror as she takes in her Queen attacking her Princess. Her duty was clear in this instance, " Dead Scream! "
The orb of magenta colored light slams into Queen Serenity with the force of a jet going mach ten. The platinum haired queen is blasted backwards as Pluto leaps into the air and turns a forwards somersault before landing in front of her princess. " Queen of the Silver Millennium or not, no one messes with my Hime! "
Queen Serenity curses at this development, she hadn't expected to deal with Sailor Pluto, just her wayward bitch of a daughter, " Stay out of affairs that do not concern you, Princess Setsuna. This is between my daughter and I. "
" It became my concern when my Hime called for help! " Pluto fires back, twirling her staff in her hands before holding it in a ready position, keeping her eyes on the Queen. Behind her Princess Serenity takes the opportunity to try to regain some of her strength. It may be her mind, but her body couldn't take the strain of such a high levelled magical fight. She would somehow have to kick her Hecate be damned mother out of her head, and then find a way to keep her out once that was done.
Pluto curses as the next attack comes before spinning around, grabbing her Hime, and leaping out of the way, " How long has this been going on? "
" Since my current incarnation fell asleep, my body has a terrible fever raging through it as it is not yet mature enough to handle the high level of this magical fight. " Princess Serenity states wearily.
Pluto takes in the state of her Hime before wincing, she was not looking good. Though she wouldn't allow her mother to see that. The one thing Princess Serenity had been damned good at was making sure no one ever saw her vulnerable. " You have to find the strength to kick her out, Hime. "
Princess Serenity looks at her bracelet, " Magical Carnelian, I need Knight Carnelian to reinforce my henshin item, otherwise I am fucking screwed. "
" Nice try, daughter. " Pluto curses and whips around only to take a blast of magic full force. This sends her careening through several of the pillars lining the walkway to the palace. Princess Serenity barely somersaults away from her deranged mother. Without Shirou reinforcing her magic she may just die.
Exit Mindscape:
Chiyu curses when she takes a closer look at her charge, " Damn, she's in a mental fight for her life right now, see how her eyes are shuttling so quickly beneath her eyelids? "
Shirou's golden brown eyes take on a hard cast, " Take human form if need be, Chiyu-san. Let's just see if I can't change the tide of battle for Hisa-chan. "
His right hand brushes against her broach at that moment, giving him an idea of what he needed to do. After using structural analysis on the broach he reinforces it, falling forward, his head resting on Hisa's stomach. Chiyu takes human form, grateful that Mauans always had clothes on. She watches over both of the teens, apparently the princess had pulled Shirou in to help her. She mops her charge down again, cursing at the fact this was all she could do for the princess and Shirou.
Princess Serenity's Mindscape:
Princess Serenity barely hides her reaction to the fact that she felt new strength flooding through her. Then Knight Carnelian makes his appearance, sliding into place in front of her, crossing his swords over each other to absorb the blast of magic coming his way. Queen Serenity curses under her breath even as her daughter gets to her feet, " Chronos Typhoon! "
" Good, you're back on your feet, Pluto. This is Knight Carnelian, you two keep the deranged bitch occupied while I prepare to cast her out of my mind. " Princess Serenity says as she stands up tall.
Knight Carnelian smirks, " With pleasure, my princess. "
Princess Serenity starts to chant in Ancient Lunarian, the wind whipping around her, as though called by her, the cadence of her voice rising as does the power she is calling upon while Sailor Pluto and Knight Carnelian go after the queen with hit and fade tactics, because neither one of her opponents was giving her any time to launch magical attacks she was forced to keep a silver-colored barrier erected, one that was almost sliced through by Knight Carnelian's swords. Princess Serenity's hair has risen up to float above her while her chant gains in strength, her sigil glowing vibrantly the longer she chants. As long as Knight Carnelian and Pluto kept the Queen busy this one chant would kick her out and keep her out!
Unlike her mother she had learned the older spells, this one she had memorized as a just-in-case type of thing. Quite frankly she was glad she had, as it was now going to be her salvation. Her mother's disdain for the more esoteric spells was about to come back and bite her in the ass. Her gown whipped in the wind surrounding her, tornado like in nature with her as the eye of the storm. Queen Serenity only noticed her daughter was chanting when her voice rang out clearly throughout her mindscape, only as the last word is invoked does the Queen realize her hubris, she'd disdained the older spells while her daughter had delved into them. The Queen disappears as a wave of power blasts out from the Princess in all directions. Said power also had the benefit of upgrading Pluto to her Super level, and unlocking a new power for Knight Carnelian.
" I must admit, you are a warrior worthy of protecting the Hime, Knight Carnelian. " Sailor Pluto says.
" Protecting her gives my life a purpose, something I was sorely lacking before. I think we should both get out of here though so Serenity-hime can get the rest she requires. " Knight Carnelian states.
Princess Serenity stands alone as flashes of magenta and red light dance across her vision. Her wave of power had also fixed the damage done by the mental battle. Sighing the princess sets to work on upping her mental defenses while her body recovered. Might as well take advantage of the fact she would have nothing better to do until she recovered.
Exit Mindscape:
Time Gates:
Super Sailor Pluto bolts upright as her astral self returns to her body. She was still in a state of shock that the Queen had attacked her daughter like that. How could she stoop so low because her daughter was forging her own path? The garnet eyed young woman fully understood why the Hime was not allowing her senshi to know where she resided. Meeting Knight Carnelian's astral form told her that like the Pretty Cures his appearance had changed. This was actually a better form of disguise than the disguise fields the senshi used. Maybe they could look into creating new henshin items that changed their appearance and kept people from making intuitive leaps of logic. That seemed to be the way to go. Until then she had to find out whom put that damned spell on herself and the Inners.
Fuyuki, Emiya Home:
Shirou groans as he comes to, " She'll be all right now, Chiyu-san. Serenity-joo took offense to her daughter using her gods' given right of free will. Our princess here was involved in a fight to keep her free will. "
Chiyu snarls under her breath about what she would like to do to Serenity-joo, " You know, if we word it just right Raiga would be willing to help you as a human get the right papers. This way you could take online classes to get certified as a mind healer here on Earth while also getting a job to help with the household expenses. Sure, I have my part-time job at a liquor store, and what I get for repairing things for Raiga and his men, but having extra would come in handy. There is also the fact I would like to get a mundane security system installed as well. Damn burglars breaking in and banging up my culinary tools. "
Chiyu cocks her head to the side as she thinks this over, " That could work though I should probably get a night shift job so I can take my college courses online during the day. "
" I'll figure out how to explain your presence to Raiga, then we'll get you set up to earn a living on Earth. Hell, maybe we could claim you're a distant relative of Kiritsugu's whom hadn't heard about his unfortunate accident. Once you learned his adoptive son was living alone with his girlfriend you agreed to stay and run the household finances. " Shirou muses out loud.
While Shirou and Chiyu are plotting how to make her human self a citizen of Earth and Japan Nikushimi is working on her half of the project about the Battle of Iwo Jima. Her sister was doing the American perspective while she would do the Japanese perspective. The younger girl had to admit most people wouldn't think to do both sides of the war. They'd do their own country and be done with it. Her sister understood that there was always more than one side to any story. The thirteen year old had established herself as an alpha with the other girls immediately. She had been amused to find out her older sister would tally up the offenses against her before striking back with humiliating pranks. While she may not defend herself she did get even.
Even Nikushimi could see how painfully insecure her elder sister was unless she was with her boyfriend, Emiya-san. Apparently she felt safe with Emiya-san, then again she had heard rumors that he'd been allowed to take Watanabe-sensei to task for discriminating against her sister simply because she happened to have well documented learning disabilities, her current therapist had discovered those as well. Hisa, as she was known, would shrink in on herself when anyone disparaged her. She had no one in this school to defend her though at least the guys left her alone. None of them wanted to piss her overprotective and highly vindictive boyfriend off.
She had also felt her elder sister's call for help earlier, she was pissed she had been unable to answer though she did feel Pluto answer the summons. She was hoping Kaia would be able to get the full story of what happened out of her elder brother since they knew she happened to be a senshi. She deftly dodges the spitball sent her way, notes whom fired it at her, and mulls over how she would respond to such a juvenile act.
Homurahara High:
Ryuudou Issei, makes sure to take diligent notes for Shirou while also writing down their assignments. He had no problem with doing so for his friend as Shirou generally saved his ass by repairing several appliances on school grounds. Staying home to take care of his sick girlfriend was only responsible of the redhead. He pushes his wire frame glasses back up again even as he pays attention to Fujimura-sensei, and the actions of those around him. Thanks to the fact that he happened to be ambidextrous he could write out two sets of notes. Fujimura-sensei lived next door to Shirou and happened to be his legal guardian as well. Issei suspected that Shirou had asked him to gather his assignment because he needed some guy time. Shirou spent most of his time with his girlfriend, recently discovered younger half-sister, his female student in the culinary arts, and Fujimura-sensei. Shirou so needed a Guys Day Out it wasn't funny.
Tohsaka Rin was startled that Emiya Shirou hadn't come into school. He was always at school. Unknown to her, her younger sister bristles in her own classroom. While Sakura could accept the fact that Hisa got to Shirou first she was not going to tolerate anyone else going after her object of fantasy. Poor Shirou had no idea how many girls actually found him attractive though he had noticed Rin's attraction to him. Of course, that was only after Taiga, his baby sister, and Hisa lead him to that conclusion with veiled comments. Enough veiled comments that actually forced him to think. Even his therapist couldn't understand why Shirou was blind to the attentions of the female of the species.
Juuban:
Osaka Naru continues her internal swearing rant from when her best friend and princess had called for help. The senshi of the soul was pissed about the fact that Serenity-joo had tried to impose her will upon Serenity-hime. She had also felt Pluto answers the call for help along with the hime pulling her true soul mate in for help as well. It was about time Sailor Psyche make herself known to the other senshi active in Juuban. She would start with Mizuno Ami since she had felt her forceful awakening. Having someone to train with in the hidden section of the Crown Game Center and Fruit Parlor would be helpful. The auburn haired teen was still taking notes, answering questions when called on, and paying attention in class all while swearing mentally over what was going on. Unlike the Inners of which only Mars and Mercury were present in Japan. Well, more that they were awakened, Jupiter had to be close by, and Venus was active in London. Oh yes, it was time to shake things up. Sailor Psyche was going to start patrolling after revealing herself to Mercury.
Mizuno Ami hadn't known what had happened earlier to compel her to want to help unless it was the Hime calling for help. The blue haired girl was taking attentive notes, paying attention to her sensei, and making sure to keep an ear out for the school sluts to try anything against her. They had found out relatively quickly that Mizuno Ami happened to have an inner bitch that she only rarely brought out to play. Being turned magenta for two weeks had disabused some of them of the notion of messing with a girl genius. The sensei couldn't even fault the girl as she had used non-toxic chemicals, took into consideration how much pigment the victim's skin had, and then hit them where it hurt them the worst, their vanity.
All told she had shown great restraint, which the chemistry teacher was quick to tell the school principal of. She could have done something much worse with her intelligence. Harmlessly pranking several girls that had openly bullied her while the teachers did nothing to them? Put like that, well it made every adult present blush in shame. They had perpetuated the problem by not curtailing bullying behavior when they saw it. They just allowed it to happen until students either humiliated their tormentors or committed suicide to escape from the pressures of their lives. Sakurada Haruno was reminded of Tsukino Usagi, whom had been a student until her family did something that caused her paternal grandmother to remove her from the area. That was the official story anyhow.
No one had overtly been mean to Usagi-san as she had acted so nice and caring no one wanted her upset at them. At the same time disparaging remarks had been made about her intelligence, Sakurada-sensei had heard Usagi tell her best friend her mother locked her out of her own home if her grades weren't to her mother's exacting standards. Why hadn't she reported that to the proper authorities. No wonder children didn't come to adults with their problems, adults generally ignored them, or worse, thought they were being over dramatic. Thinking back over her teaching career the woman winces internally at how much she had allowed to happen. She had also read Hari Potta to kenja no ishi showing a teacher deliberating dismissing three students out of hand for not knowing what they were talking about when they warned her about the danger to the artifact the headmaster was guarding.
The teacher in her was cringing, Hari already had little to no trust in authority figures, that just compounded the issue. She had failed to see how that correlated with her own practices as a teacher. She ignored verbal bullying, berated students for bad grades without stopping to think that there might be a reason their grades were so bad other than laziness. Her rose-tinted glasses had been ripped off, now she needed to do something about it. Children should be able to go to authority figures, and not worry about not being taken seriously. Sadly adults very rarely listened to the younger generation until it was far too late.
What happened to Tsukino Usagi had opened up a lot of eyes. There were reforms to the educational system that were being discussed. One being mandatory testing for learning disabilities along with mandatory training for the teachers on how to handle said disabilities. When one of the Emperor's top demon huntresses starts making waves, because of what happened to her heiress things got done. Apparently the Emperor had been waiting for just such an opportunity to arise so he could shove some reforms down the throats of the traditionalists. There was also the fact that Tsukino Umika nee Albarn apparently had a lot of dirt on several key people, or that was the rumor anyhow.
At T*A Private Girls School Hino Rei uses her meditation breathing to keep herself calm. She had recognized the feel of Moon's power in that call for help. As a priestess in training she was able to recognize someone by the feel of their power easier than most other people could. She lived at a Shinto shrine and attended a Catholic school run by nuns. Then again she did that so her father couldn't use her as a political pawn. Her violet eyes look up at the board even as she writes down all the important things the teacher was saying. Taking diligent notes ensured that she maintained a place at this school since grades were a big part of who got to stay as a student. She did not want to end up in a public school where her father's supporters would bug her, or worse she could be found by reporters. She was only safe from things like that in a private school hence why she attended a school run by nuns.
Jadeite observes his most recent operation while smirking maliciously. This time he was leaving plenty of youma. He had opened up a gym and all the staff were youma disguised as humans. Only one youma had decent intelligence while all the others were cannon fodder. If they lost every youma it wouldn't be too major of a hit to their collective forces. With the help of Nephrite he'd managed to come up with a way for the energy to be remotely sent to them back at the North Pole. He teleports away to check on another pet project of his. Pet Shop Perfume was another front, and had the same means of transferring energy to the home base. Human females loved all things cute and fluffy, he'd observed that much. Though their definitions of cute and fluffy could vary. The Chanela would sell quickly, making it that much easier to drain energy from the foolish humans for their great leader, Metalia-sama.
Beryl had agreed that having several operations going at the same time was better than just having one up and running. At the moment they could only enter London and Juuban. Sailor V had all but routed them in London, the Dark Agency was no more except for a stray member here and there. Jadeite had no doubt that once she was done mopping up the Dark Agency she would head for Juuban. After school Naru slips a note into Mizuno Ami's current book before heading for the Crown Game Center. She wasn't surprised when Mizuno-san shows up. A discrete look at Motoki and they were in the hidden back of the Game Center. Naru lead them to the Op Center before turning to look at the Inner, " I am the Outsider known as Sailor Psyche, I think it's about time to shake things up, you can train your powers in one of the simulation rooms, or just use it as a quiet place to study. My name is Osaka Naru. "
" I see, it does seem prudent to have an ally our enemies don't know about. Do you have a cell phone? "
" It just so happens that I do, I'll give you my number so you can get a hold of me if everything goes to shit in a hurry. We can also train together so you have an real measure of your true battle capabilities. " Naru states.
After exchanging contact information the pair set to work, getting their homework done first, and then they henshin before sparring together. Mercury was quickly regaining her old skills by dint of sheer instinct. Mercurians had generally been the assassins though Saturnians were also known for assassination. Hit and fade tactics were the blue haired genius' best bet while Naru, like Sailor Venus could snipe at her enemies from a distance. Venus had her Crescent Beam while she had her Soul Stinger. Venusians were the ones that were generally called upon for seduction missions. Naru gave Ami access to the after action reports from the Silver Millennium, not the prettied up things Luna would most likely tell her and the others. Ami learned about the darker side to the Silver Millennium. The Queendom may have been peaceful, but that was only because most of the High Lunar Queens ordered the assassinations of dissenters before they could stir the hornet's' nest.
Rei was walking home from school when her priestess senses snap alert, their was something seriously wiggy going on near her. The raven haired and violet eyed Miko pulls out her quiver and bow, most people assumed she used something like the mythical 'hammer space' to store her chosen weapon. Thankfully it was well-known she happened to be a miko in training so no one questioned her having her bow in hand and her quiver on her back. She follows her sixth sense to Jam Records before walking right in, sensing the youma, nocking an arrow, and letting it fly all in the time it would take someone to tie their shoe. Seeing what everyone had assumed was a human turn into dust startled them all. Rei walks forward to grab the CD the idiot was about to broadcast before wrapping it up in anti-evil talismans fully charged up. Then she tosses it into her 'weapons space' for safe keeping.
Fuyuki, Emiya Home:
Once Sakura arrived at his place with Issei Shirou rolls his shoulders before grabbing one of his jackets, " Hisa-chan's fever broke, I'm going to get some guy time in. Let Fuji-nee know, ja ne, Sakura-san. "
Sakura removes her shoes and puts the kettle on to make herself some darjeeling tea before she heads into the living room to work on her homework while watching over Hisa as well. She knew Shirou deserved some guy time since he spent almost all of his free time with herself, his recently discovered half-sister, or his girlfriend. The purple haired teen chats quietly with Magical Morganite while doing her schoolwork. When the kettle whistles she pours the water into her mug, adds the tea bag, and sets the time for five minutes. She normally wouldn't set a timer but she knew damn well that with her reading assignment she would need the reminder. Fortunately she knew where Shirou kept his honey, he had clover, wildflower, and orange blossom varieties at the moment. Sakura herself preferred clover honey while Hisa adored Wildflower honey. Shirou preferred orange blossom honey for baking purposes.
Shirou had coaxed Hisa awake long enough to remove her contacts, so it was sapphire eyes that slit open and look at Sakura. " Sakura-san, can you get me some warm water, please? " Hisa mutters just loud enough to be heard.
" Of course, Hisa-san, it'll be no problem at all. " Sakura says.
Chiyu was curled up on Hisa's stomach, Sakura hadn't yet been clued in to the fact that the pet cat for the Emiya home could actually talk. Kaia knew, but that was only because she too saw through the glamour hiding the pale gold upturned crescent moon on the feline's forehead. Sakura returns with the water, she had thought ahead and placed a bendy straw in the glass as well. She holds the glass to where Hisa could sip from the straw. Shirou would pick up some electrolyte rich drinks while he was out, if only to help Hisa regain her strength quicker. " If you'd like I could help you take a bath to clean all that fever sweat off of you. " Sakura says.
" I don't know if you alone can support me all the way to the bathroom. It's not like Shirou hasn't had to take care of me in my birthday suit before. The last time I went catatonic he pulled me out of the shower, remember. "
" True, are you up to eating? "
" Check and see if the jello Shi-kun made is done, Sakura-san. I'd rather try my luck with bland foods before anything else. " Hisa states. The instant she could she was teleporting to the moon and exorcising that damned bitch There was no excuse for her to throw that temper tantrum like an unruly toddler. The woman just didn't like that she was using her Hades be damned free will to make her own choices.
