But my life is more than a vision--
| characters | Archer, Shirou, Rin, and whoever wants to join them in their endeavor. Feel free to tag multiple headers and jump threads within them!
| date/time | Monday, May 4th, onwards through the rest of the week.
| location | Outside the tree, near the mists.
| rating | PG for now, who knows later.
| summary | A complicated series of domestic scenes unfold as Archer, Shirou, and Rin set to work building a miniature kitchen out where they can have real fire, only to be interrupted by a storm.
It's been almost three weeks since Archer and Rin arrived in the center of the tree and gained their wings, only to be met by Shirou and Saber as well. That's just about enough time for it to dawn on those who might be concerned with the domestic details of day-to-day life that they have such a thing here, in between the confusion, the struggle to organize, and the fears of more giant spiders.
Archer's highest priority might be the salvation of all the souls around him, as much as he hates it, but bit by bit a new concern creeps up on him, almost unconsciously. Every time he serves Rin a subpar, barely-cooked meal, it pains him a little deep inside where he thought he was only hollow.
He decides to act.

I can keep up, Archer. [he almost wanted to find something and reinforce it in front of him just to prove his point, but he'd let his words and actions towards the cause speak for themself. with both his training under Rin and his own (unnatural) progress thanks to his connection to Archer, he should have been able to manage. heck, if he could reinforce a desk in a panic to protect himself from Rin's wrath at school, he could make strong enough foundations when concentrating]
So we gather everything first before we dig out the foundation. If we can strip off pieces of bark, that might be good for boards.
[and branches of course]

Archer is silent and still for a moment, dwelling a little too long on a thought like that which would once have never occurred to him. Before, he only thought of how his ideals ruined his own existence, and not what they did to others. Now, having seen what he saw--
He speaks abruptly, to chase his dire thoughts away. ]
Yeah, though we should be sure it's not rotted or weak; that would be your luck, Shirou Emiya.
(UBW Spoilers)
naïveyoung Shirou Emiya as he looks back to Archer]It can't all be rotting and weak. And if it's weak, that's what strengthening can fix.
(UBW Spoilers)
[ But the actual malice has gone out of his voice; he sounds more impatient than anything. ]
If the wood is warped and knotted, strengthening it will only make its twisted nature stronger. It's not like reinforcing a rolled-up poster, which is naturally even and self-supporting.
(UBW Spoilers)
Either way we have a lot of work to do and we'll grab whatever we have to.
(UBW Spoilers)
[ A smirk flickers onto his face. ]
What if we have to grab something that upsets someone? Will you choose to sacrifice our kitchen, or their happiness?
(UBW Spoilers)
If someone is upset over taking rocks or wood, I'll make it up to them if a kitchen bothers them so much.
(UBW Spoilers)
Go look to the east of the tree for materials. I will take the west.
