Quite a swing from last time. What changed?

Quite a swing from last time. What changed?
I do not know if that is something that could happen, but if it does, I imagine Medea Lily, all the way in the past, would get hit by Karmic Whiplash or something and throw herself out off a window in response.
I don't remember if I was here for the last vote, but for me it's sheer practicality carrying the day. Like dang, woman needs an arm. And while she definitely can get it other ways as she said, I dunno. I got a bad feeling about that.
Circe: I assure you Shirou, having sex with me is instrumental to becoming a hero of justice
Possibly a missing pronoun? Could very well be a clipped manner of speech."Fujimaru, I couldn't say," Circe continues. "In time, perhaps. But wouldn't want me to at the moment."
You mean, as a dream? Perhaps.
This is one of the reasons I prefer keeping our romantic interests rooted on this side of reality. I'd like not getting poisoned or turned into an animal as is the Greek tradition for break-ups, and not-even-veiled threats do little to dissuade me."What… about Ayako?"
Circe arches a brow. "What about her? Your life is far from normal Shirou, and if you break my dear Medea's heart I will do far worse than turn you into a piglet." The threat was clear as day in her voice, then she smiles.
Ah. For a moment there, I thought you just didn't want to listen.And at a certain point a woman just needs to hear a yes or no, piglet. No waiting to ask a friend, or trying to phrase rejection in pretty terms. So. What do you say?
Also, it's not Medea's feelings I am concerned about, it's Ayako's. When it's Medea, Circe threatens a fate worse than death, but when it's Ayako, she offers no more than 'she'll have to deal'. That's not quite fair, is it?
To me it's the principle of the matter, it just feels bad to do to someone. Like it's not like she was consulted beforehand about this first, she's just getting sidelined in her own relationship. We're effectively cheating on her here, even if it's for a good reason.The Author's note explicitly said that this does not detrimentally affect our relationship with Ayako.
Note that it didn't say anything about how it affects our relationship with Medea...
Ah, fuck it. Bird time it is.

There's a thought. What do Ayako and Sakura think of each other? I'm not sure they've interacted all that much in school?
"Speak up, though. It's hard to hear you over the constant sound of the Earth trying to erase my existence."I am a living being, not a spirit. Hence why I wished to speak to you, there are… other ways of obtaining mana.
Gotta love when time gets wonky.
Gut feelings are Shirou's modus operandi.[X] [Accept]
This... feels more like a gut feeling kind of choice tbh. There are a good few practical reasons I could give, but this just feels like the right choice regardless of any of that.
Thanks for the quote!...thats Circe speak for 'whats wrong with multiple partners?'
the nonchalance of the delivery is great
... right some vitamin D it is then! : P

I mean even without the arm situation I'd be down
now waiting for Medea to walk in and Circe to be like 'would you like to join?'
And vampires, oni, bug people...[X] [Accept]
Ah, the age of man, I forgot how detrimental it was to everything and everyone that isn't a normal human
Little.
Circe is a good girl.[X] [Accept]
The more power the Grand Witch has to rely on, the better. She's been nothing but good to us so far.
Peeps want the Sakura route?[X] [Accept]
Let's Go!
And NO way Medea wont't, at minimum, know what her dear Auntie Is doing with her Master (and boyfriend?)
Just don't drain Shirou too much Circe. Shirou needs to be up when Archer comes kicking His ass for ignoring his wonderful Kouhai (and potential Wife)

Saw the title, went "but there's no Kie no Omoi?" and then scrolled down.
It'd work.

Welcome. And Circe is old and has no time to brat around the bush.[X] [Accept]
I don't remember if I was here for the last vote, but for me it's sheer practicality carrying the day. Like dang, woman needs an arm. And while she definitely can get it other ways as she said, I dunno. I got a bad feeling about that.
That said, I'm not totally sure about this. She says she loves Shirou, but she threw that out pretty casually, but she's also old as fuck...
Just uncertain. If someone can make a decent argument not to, possibly involving Medea, I'll probably change my vote.
Also thanks for the update! Was fun.
Circe did tell Medea she was gonna move on him.I know it won't do anything to Ayako's standing, but the reason I'm hesitant is because I don't know what it'll do with Medea's standing instead. And that's not counting on how Sakura will take it. But if we don't then Circe may try something that'd be risky to heal herself, and I really do doubt Shirou would be willing to stand aside while someone he cares about is suffering.

Clench up kids. We're going on a ride.
It's a valid opinion, and turning her down doesn't ruin anything. But please know I have a plan and am not fucking over Ayako here.Clearly in the minority here, but

When, not if when, people find out there's going to be a lot of explaining to do. It's not even like Circe can get away with saying that it's purely practical. Medea probably won't take it particularly well, who knows what Sakura will think but I doubt it will be good, Ayako would rightfully be livid and heartbroken.
I'm not suggesting that Circe should just be left to deal with it on her own, nor should she have to resort to just sleeping with a rando, or like murdering someone for their mana (I admittedly have no idea if all Servants can potentially do that or if it's strictly ones like Medusa and a handful of others). But this is a bit, sudden.
You can tell someone you're gonna drink their juice but they can still get mad about it. In this case I'm worried she'll be cross with the juice.
