Normally I'd send these a little closer to the holidays, but the student council is busy around this time of year, so I thought it would be best to get them out early. Besides, arranging cross-world transportation...

Archer, Hakuba, I hope you received your books successfully? And the same for you and your cat, Heartnet?

Midou, I... honestly, I have no idea what to get you. So I'm going to admit defeat and ask what you would prefer. I'll do my best to get it.

Happy holidays.

((Gifts are the same as in the gift post: book with pictures of famous swords for Archer, Kogoro Akechi book for Hakuba, black cat plushie for Train, ??? for Ban. Also, handwaving the sending out of the gifts because I can't be bothered.))

...The most I can tell you is that they're obviously involved.

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

Well, yes, I already knew that because I helped set them up.

Could you dig a little deeper?

I want to know to make sure your Emiya Shirou does not become me, and with Rin at his side that won't happen.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I apologize, Archer, but I avoid spending time with Tohsaka, especially if Emiya's there. If I don't think about it, I can pretend he has better taste than that. I don't know.

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

I understand Issei, I shouldn't have asked that of you.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

But rest assured that I will make it my personal mission to make sure he doesn't end up like you.

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

Thank you Issei, that means a lot.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

It's the least I can do for you.

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

Maybe I can return the favor.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Huh?

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

For helping me.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I knew that, but unless I became something strange in your time, I'm not sure how you could...

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

Helping me with Emiya Shirou I mean.

1/3

[stripping.livejournal.com]

That makes more sense, but I still don't know what-

2/3

[stripping.livejournal.com]

3/3

[stripping.livejournal.com]

That's, that's hardly necessary and probably impossible and don't say things like that!

Re: 3/3

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

I'm . . . confused now Issei.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

...so am I. Err. Perhaps I assumed too much.

How did you mean to repay the favor?

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

I don't know, what would you like me to do?

(Archer really doesn't know . . . I mean, he knows Issei's attracted to him but . . .)

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I honestly have no idea.

((Issei's also pretty clueless. Well, he can certainly think of some things he'd like, but there's no way that he's going to ask Archer to do them!

Also, what Issei assumed Archer was talking about was that the Shirou from his timeline was still single (http://ewwgirls.livejournal.com/4578.html?thread=326114#t326114), like they were discussing earlier. He thought Archer wanted to matchmake.))

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

Okay then.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'll let you know if I think of something that isn't incredibly perverted.

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

I'll try.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

...well, remember when we were discussing your lack of a gift for Tohsaka? You could graciously accept my offer to pay for it.

[steelisblood.livejournal.com]

Issei, I can't take your money.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Why not?
