( amber ) backdated to second day of the journey  
( ooc; after this exchange )


[The amber shows Saber's face. Her hair is still wet and dripping from her struggle with the fish, but her serious expression, hard gaze and cold voice is far more concerning to those who know her. She has never made this face since her arrival to the tree. Even if she has suppressed her ire, she is obviously displeased.]

Illyasviel. If you can hear me, we must speak immediately.

[She wishes to corroborate this and she's a day of journey away. Two Archer Cards and Gilgamesh mentioning them makes her draw the connection immediately.]

It is about that boy who stayed once.

Amber  
HARK, fellow denizens of the tree!

[The amber shows a quick view of the quest mirror; it's not close enough to make out the words on it, but there are definitely words there. The image then whips around to Owain's grinning face.]

Behold, the Mirror Shard of Secret Mystery awakens! The hour of our redemption is at hand, and upon my mighty blade, I swear we shall not be thwarted a second time! See, luckily for everyone, I've totally got that last line covered.

[He holds up a rough piece of tree-made paper. The words WEAPON NAMES adorn the top, and scrawled below them, taking up every available bit of space, is a barely-legible list of names. Some have exclamation points. Some have several exclamation points. One has crude flames drawn around it, and another appears to have lightning bolts shooting out of it.]

"Those that serve have earned the right of a name." So sayeth the Mirror! ...Okay, so I dunno who "those that serve" are, but if we just name everything we're bound to get them named too, right? [He pulls his list back and looks it over.] Now, most of these names are for weapons, true, but a lot of them'll work for other things. Flamenugget would be good for a firefly... ooh, and Storm Tempest would be great for one of the baby birds. And there are plenty more where these came from! [He taps his head.]

So GO FORTH, heroes of fairy-dom, and name all you lay eyes upon! And if you need ideas, I'm your man! [With that, he looks as though he's going to set the amber down... then abruptly catches himself as he remembers something else.] --Oh, and if anyone wants to contribute to the Master List of Epic Names... [He flips his list around. The other side is also full, except for a bit of space along one edge.] ...I could probably fit two or three more on here.

[He salutes with the hand that is still holding the paper.] Owain, AWAY!

二 | Amber;  
Hey, guys. It looks like there's some new plants springing up around the tree, and I thought this would be a good time to bring up the garden idea again. [She tucks a strand of hair behind her ear, chewing her lip in thought.]

I know most of us want to believe we'll get out of here soon, but we should probably save some of the seeds and grow things for ourselves just in case. Does anyone here know a lot about plants? Recognizing what some of these are would be helpful--not just to eat, but anything that can be used as medicine, too.

Amber ⚔ 1  
[how long has Shirou been here, using the amber every once in a while to talk to a couple of people, but never outright saying anything to the public? almost two months? how much time has passed? granted Shirou isn't much of a 'public speaker' so to speak.

otherwise whenever he finally got a cell phone his contacts list would be rather small. but here was a little different. everyone was just like him, right? they all came from different worlds, those that banded together to take on that snake some time ago (unfortunately he missed the aftermath), and even within his own circle of friends and allies...]


Hopefully everyone I met when that snake came a while ago is doing alright. I don't think there was a lot of time for us to get to know each other with everything going on, but,

[he lightly smiles before blinking into the amber. ...this was working, right? he was fine with technology and he's used it before. but not to talk to...well, everyone]

Ah...well, anyway, for anyone that I haven't met here yet, my name's Shirou Emiya. I'm from Fuyuki City in Japan, for anyone who might know where that is. Nice to meet you all. [what else? this wasn't like introducing himself in school. realizing that, he stops there]

Let's see...

To be honest, I'm not sure what else to say. We're all in the same situation here, but it's only a matter of time until we figure out a way to go back home. I like to think I'm pretty good at fixing things here. [but not just for fixing things] If anyone needs a hand with anything around here, let me know.

[a beat]

Yosh. That shou-

[talking to himself as he taps the amber, he doesn't realize he cut himself off. ah well, it was a start! now what to do for dinner tonight...]

01 [Amber]  
Hello, everyone! You'll never guess what I've found!

[She doesn't give anyone time to guess, as the view from the amber immediately wheels around to face the mist. Or, more specifically, the ground near the mist, where some gnarled roots have broken through.]

It's ginger! I'm sure of it! It smells so nice... I was thinking that perhaps we could make tea! It's been so long since I've had proper ginger tea. And I think I saw some honeycomb on the branch where the food is, so we can add some of that, too! I'm sure the lil' bugs will help us heat up water. Oh, it will be so lovely!

Would anyone be so kind as to help me gather some ginger? There's more than enough for everyone!

amber ♠ 02  
I really have to wonder at how quickly we're destroying this place.

[ Archer announces himself over the amber with that casual and dire remark. His tone is bored. ]

First of all, we've upset the balance of nature by killing a predator and allowing defenseless prey animals to multiply unchecked. Those rabbits will probably suffer once they meet the cruel reality of life beyond this tree, you know.

And now we've nearly destroyed the tree itself with our meddling. Isn't that impressive?

[ Now his voice is just dripping sarcasm. ]

Well done, everyone. Whoever brought us all here should really have expected these results. It's exactly what human beings do, after all.
