1. Action prompt

[It could be a battle, or a disaster. It could be a sneak shot at your back, or a collapsing mess of debris about to bury you. Either way there's a sound and a movement almost too close together to separate -]

Sonic Move!

[- and you're saved - carried to safety, or shielded by a golden magical barrier. Your suddenly-appeared rescuer, a flying woman in a white cloak, spares you a worried look.]

I got here as quickly as I could. Are you hurt?


2. Shenanigans prompt

[Baking a cake. Preparing a surprise party. Gift-wrapping someone's entire office. Whatever the occasion, you've managed - somehow - to persuade Fate to go along with it.]

Are you sure this is a good idea?


3. Sweetness prompt

[You're a child. You have a child. A child just appeared in front of you and started crying inexplicably. Point is, you need the help of someone with vast reserves of patience and a soft, gentle voice.]

It's okay. Whatever's wrong, you can tell me about it.

If your sister is so on edge that she'd shoot at you over a surprise, wouldn't it be better to send a card?

[way_of_vengeance]

Don't be silly, Hanae wouldn't shoot at me! It's my fiancé who'd do that.

Speaking of which, we need to see if he'd be there. If Shishikui came, he's certain to have brought his men, and probably his armor, so we'll need guns...

[cleavestwice]

I know this may be a rude question, but what exactly is the gift you want to leave?

[way_of_vengeance]

Oh, I was thinking of giving her a nice painting I found while abroad, a Toulouse-Lautrec. It'll help liven up the house a bit.

Do you think she'd hate it? I know Shishikui hates anything from foreign countries...

[cleavestwice]

Are you sure your fiance won't throw it out once he finds it?

[Shishikui is her fiance, right? Kanae's, not Hanae's. Even if that leaves Fate confused as to who's in charge of what. But hey, at least it's a painting and not a bomb!]

[way_of_vengeance]

Well, he's the current head of the family, but...


But, mistress Hanae takes after her elder sister in more ways than one. Indeed, sometimes I wonder how such wicked vixens were born to such virtuous parents.


Sayo...

[Suffice to say, if Hanae likes it, that painting's sticking around. Though there's still the matter of (probably) sneaking in past all the guards and fighting your way out past Shishikui and his men.]

[cleavestwice]

[...Look Fate, Hayate said to help this strange lady, and it's not like she'd be friends with some kind of untrustworthy female pervert - right?]

...Maybe I should be in the cake with you. Then I can put up a barrier without having to shoot anyone.

[way_of_vengeance]

Why would we need to do that? Couldn't we just dodge the bullets while you deal with the guards?

[cleavestwice]

That sounds dangerous. And means attacking the guards unnecessarily...

[Fate... gets the feeling she's not likely to win this argument.]

1/2

[way_of_vengeance]

...Eh? What do you mean, we wouldn't be...

2/2

[way_of_vengeance]

Ooooooooh, I see. Let me explain: the guards will try to kill me on general principle. They really don't want me to bring presents for some reason!

And dodging bullets is easy. Why, I can do it with one eye closed.

[Come to think of it, she's had both her eyes closed this entire conversation. And every single time you've seen her.]

[cleavestwice]

Your fiance's guards? Wouldn't that make the wedding a little bit awkward?
