I'm sorry for the shorter length on this one, I'm in the middle of a hurricane and just discovered a hole in my roof today. Been a mite distracted and panicked.
ouch. that's rough. if you have any plastic totes you can reach and empty easily those make good makeshift buckets to catch the water for a while.

Shirou virtually never gets to be a proper wizard. Let's double down.
It's kinda weird when ya think about it.
It's alright, I am also dealing with the hurricane. Great chapter, I'm definitely satisfied with Medea's time in the spotlight.
Thank you!

I think after this, even Archer would acknowledge the fact that Shirou needs help. Of course, that's going to lead into a long and painful conversation about how Prime Shirou sold his soul to Alaya, but if it helps Shirou avoid that fate, it might be worth it. Especially if all the women in Shirou's life were there to hear it.
Recall this isn't the same Archer.
Yeaaaaaah, I think Sakura caught Shirou in his lie there. Poor Sakura.
It's always 'poor sakura' time sadly.
took you long enough to admit it
Medea is very grumpy by nature.

I think the actual phrasing is "bring salvation to all." And considering this is the Nasuverse and people aren't allowed to have nice things, that Magic is probably something that defines "salvation" in the worst possible way.
Wait and see~
On another note, the Medea scene was amazing. I loved it very, very much.
Thank you!

I didn't notice that last but, how the fuck?!?!
Magic!

It's okay.
I wish you and everyone dealing with Hurricanes the best of luck

The Sixth Magic...at first, I thought of choosing EMIYA because at this point I don't believe he would see this Shirou as someone capable of becoming him, so revealing his identity and original HGW History would be both safe and extremly useful

But this Shirou has changed magically speaking from the one of the original routes. Something Archer simply lacks knowledge to work with.

Something truly different

PS: Hope next turn Shirou gets to talk, or even just hug, Ayako and Sakura. The three of them have went through too much. But they can find comfort in each other because they have know each other for a long while.

Tears begin to pour down her face, and Ayako stares at her for a moment before she shuffles off of you and stomps off. Sakura stares after her, then moves to sit next to you on the cold ground.
The whole scene with Ayako and Sakura made me thought on this:

Despite how overwhelming this whole disaster has been for Ayako...she is pretty much stuck with Shirou. For Good or Ill

Her family is currently under a spell, and while Ruby most likely can break it...what next? Pretend the last days have not happend and return to a "normal life"

Unless she has Ruby block her memories, she wouldn't be able to escape the reminder than both Shinji and now Rin are Dead.

Ruby: Even if I make you forget everything, sooner than later you would be caught on the crossfire and...I couldn't do nothing and watch you die.

And even if she were to run away, Ayako wouldn't be able to live with herself by leaving those that she loves to fend for themselves.

Medea was right; "I see like attracts like even in this age."

And I can even imagine Shirou talking with Ayako about this what if:

Shirou: If we were to run together...the guilt would destroy me. I would look at myself everyday, and hate me for not staying and helping everyone I could. How could I make you happy, if I only have loathing on my heart. I never wanted you to be at risk, but now...I can' bear the idea of losing you in anyway, Ayako

So yeah...many emotional baggages that speak that same tale.

Shirou and Ayako are together for the duration of this entire mess.

What happens after...well, they will have the time to decide, at least.

This was nice, very healing.
Taking the boy trying to run away from his feelings as far away as possible so there's nowhere to go.
You've delivered the most cherished fanservice for me as a Fate fan: being able to hold Shirou and tell him it's not his fault.
"Because I love you."
💜
I know last vote was really close, but I'm v happy we got this.
If not me, then Circe, if not Circe, then Ayako.
I'm v glad she doesn't shy away from their love with Shirou. As a true main heroine, other girls aren't opponents, they're comrades fighting for the same thing: We can fix him
One conversation to the next.
Heh, this got me. I feel you, Shirou

Loved this segment, granted I'm v biased towards this witch. Glad we got some of Sakura's emotions here. I hope we can help her and Ayako process some of this. Def another segment that's made me v thankful I picked this up.

As for the future, I reaaaaaally want to go with Fujimaru, her and Mash could use screentime (and Shirou could stand to actually learn about servants). However, I feel like my heart is a lot more emotionally invested and intrigued here

Shirou is totally surrounded by more magical women (in various forms) than he's ever been, it seems like the perfect time to see a more caster-like Shirou.

I'm sorry for the shorter length on this one, I'm in the middle of a hurricane and just discovered a hole in my roof today. Been a mite distracted and panicked.
Oh geez, I hope it doesn't hit you too hard. You, your home, and possessions are in my thoughts and prayers. Hope you and those you know can make it through with minimal damage. 💜

"Good, glad she's okay. We're leaving, alright? We're leaving Fuyuki."

"... Why?" you ask.

"Why!?" Ayako shrieks. "Rin is dead, Shinji is dead. And you ask why!? I don't want any more of that."

Ayako is having a perfectly reasonable response to this sort of thing, but she doesn't seem to realize what sort of guy her boyfriend is.

Stress was turning the tips of your hair slightly white.

Ah, I see Counter-Guardian chic is in style!

Our girlfriend is a magical girl, our Servant is a Witch, our mentor is the witch and both our childhood friend/love interest and long-lost sister and Magus. Who are we to break the streak?

Been a while since the last time Shirou got to decompress, huh.
Best wishes in dealing with that storm, Erien.
