[X] You'll raise Hell. You'll let them all come to you. The Cult seems like a good place to gather everyone... Plus you have your suspicions on the stars disappearing being from there.

Eyes! In the dead still water!
Tried! But it pushed back harder...
Cauterized
And atrophied
This my
Un-be-coming~
 
Just look at the last page. People *cough* AlwaysLate *cough* did NOT take the body swap and Minerva escaping well.
Jesus, I missed a lot when I went for a nap.
Either way, it's a sign of the high quality of writing.
Well-Written stories often make you freak out, put the book (internet tab) down and scream for a moment before returning. It just means you're invested in the characters.

I've come here from nowhere
Across the unforgiving sea
Drifting further and further
It's all coming clear to me
The violent winds are upon us
And I can't sleep
Internal temperatures rising
And the voices won't recede

I've finally found what I was looking for
A place where I can be without remorse
Because I am a stranger who has found
An even stranger war
I've finally what I was looking for
Here I come
 
Wee bit more than just those two, FTR.

Yes but you were by FAR the most vocal about it. There's making reasonable complaints to the author and then there's this
Honestly, it seems like any suggestion we come up with gets veto'd by the rest of the plot. Pull up Aegis to protect ourselves? Does nothing. Go find Minerva? Cu gives up after a few minutes. We want to go recover somewhere? Zombies still exist and the Bounded Field just cut us off from the outside world. So fuck it. Let's get this identity crisis crap over with and just get this finale back on a semblance of track.

This seems to be the comment that caused Rabbit to start apologizing profusely. Just because you didn't like the development didn't mean it wasn't good writing.

Edit: Wait got confused. You were saying those weren't the only two comments where Rabbit was apologizing. When you said "it wasn't just those two" I thought you were commenting on the number of people who were mad at the situation. My point still stands that you were the most vocal driver of this whole issue. Claiming authorial veto for the sake of plot is just avoiding the obvious alternative of us being on death's door and Berzerker not being a tracker and Minerva knowing we'd likely try to sick Berzerker on her and reacting accordingly.

Oooooooor. We could drop and bury and forget about it and get on with playing this Quest.
That'd be nice.

If you think my behavior is seriously out of line enough to warrant resurrection, maybe you could fill out a report and see what the staff thinks instead of taking potshots.
 
Well. The one good thing about this is that acting like someone else is much harder than people might think. Minerva has to take the time to review every single one of Brie's memories. And even if she still had the time to do it, she still has to train her act. She won't have time for that and by then Medb should be suspicious of her. And that's even assuming she has all of Brie's memories.

Unless I missed something. What Minerva has done was absurdly dumb.
"Mission Complete then..." The girl murmured as she held her hand. She looked around and knelt before you, "No one's going to believe you even if you do survive. Enjoy."
Yup. She isn't even acting correctly. :rofl: Or else she would have acted like Brie to make it creepy.

I wonder if robo cheese is a feature of the Berserker doll or it was just Brie. Cause that has some interesting implications it's the case...

"Joke's on you sucka, we knew all along you ain't my Brie! I knew, Ruler knew, Emiya knew, even the stupid priest saw through your raggedy-ass disguise. My Brie's a true tsundere, not some fuckin' yandere-ass motherfucker. Now stand still so that I can kick your ass, through my girlfriend's ass by proxy!"

"If you weren't inside my girlfriend's body I would've snapped your fucking neck you carbon copy bitch."
 
Remember guys, we have to be careful cornering Minerva, because she still has one command seal left. We may have to kill her and leave our old body as collateral to avoid her killing Medb. People can contract with more than one Servant so we can pick up Rider after that.
 
We can just cut her arm off and use the command seal to make Rider buff or something. It's fine.

You closed your eyes and gathered your thoughts. It was the simplest solution to a problem you're complicating. You hissed as you met his gaze and told him of your decision. Those red eyes of madness, they were making your blood boil, stressing you and pushing you over the edge.

His aura was affecting even you but you knew this decision was for the best. If you were going to break this stalemate, you'll have to do something at least. With what's happening to the sky, it may be a good time to interfere. Not only that but you'll settle this the best you can. You'll apologize later.

"Let's raise hell, Berserker," you decided as you looked him in the eye, "They'll come to us and I can work from there. The Cult will be the best place to stand on and there's already things going on there... That is if my suspicions are correct."

Berserker gave you an insane grin, baring his teeth as he held out his hand. Gae Bolg... Your Gae Bolg manifested in his grasp. He then handed it to you, "Good. Then let's get this show on the road, Master."

"I'll need to top off my capacity using the Dragon Vein. That should allow you to transform without killing me... But only for dire situations," you told him as you held on to the red spear, "Plus I'll need new clothes."

"Well what are you waiting for? Get on with it," Berserker laughed as you stepped out of the cabin. Power... You need more Power.

.....
....
...

Your orange winter jacket flowed as you stood before the most concentrated point of the Dragon Vein. It was a pool of the world's energy and it was available in abundance right before you. Berserker stood by your side as you zipped up your winter jacket while fluffing up the furred edges.

It was a miracle there was some spare clothes available in the resort. One that matched your child-like proportions too. You stared at the pool of power and drew a line in the snow. Soon it grew to a magic circle you will use to extract the prana you need.

Wolves howled in the distance at your presence before you looked behind you.

"Defend me, Berserker," you ordered.

"Hey as long is it isn't dog meat, they're free game!" Berserker roared as he engaged the wolf pack.

"Draw. Pull. Draw. Pull..." You echoed as you held your hand out and had the circle, "I only need a portion. Now give me some!"

The pool of power burst as you smiled. You'll get Rider back! No matter what it takes!

.....

Minerva's body was a genuine mana battery. It was a small wonder that she could use such complicated and powerful spells during your battle. You were being carried by Berserker towards where Kiara's Cult was stationed... And what you saw was madness.

Fires on buildings and cars driven into lampposts, you watched as chaos reigned within the suburban parts of New Rimeland with the Chaos threatening to swallow up the whole city.

The police have responded to the riots occuring and have engaged numerous Cultists in shootouts. And then you saw the worst of them with their flesh turning dark purple with the whites of theirs eyes vanishing.

You knew those symptoms. They were similar to when you fought the Guru posing as Archer's Master in the Sanctum. The same anger and madness filled the minds of these people as they killed Innocents and cops alike.

Fire raged across homes and screams filled the air. There were only more coming from the cult and some of them didn't even seem to belong to Kiara's private army. They were white robes people some clothed and others not, high and delirious as they killed people.

You got down Berserker's arms to see a truck being driven by the Cultists crash into a cop car and gun down the officers present. You held Gae Bolg in your hands as your grip tightened around it.

"They seem to be too far gone. What's your path here?" Berserker sneered as he looked at the rioters having seen you both.

"They won't stop fighting even if you chop off their limbs and stab their vitals. They're all magically enhanced by the drug... Black Karma. The police won't stand a chance," you explained as you watched several Cultists rush you.

You and Berserker moved in sync before jamming your spears into the throats of hostiles. He seemed amused that you copied his form before you knocked down the Cultist into the ground.

"But if you hit them on their throats or heads, they'll die like any other person," you replied as you held your spear.

"And here I thought you'll bitch about sparing these vermin," Berserker chuckled as he crushed a man's head as if it were a grape fruit, "What's your plan?"

[] "Kill them. Kill them all Berserker. We can't let them get to the city. We need to protect who we can and help the police."
[] "I need you to be loud and obnoxious. Use your aura to goad them into attacking you. Build that wall of bodies you always wanted. I'll go on ahead while you do your thing... And hopefully find a friend."
[] "Leave the fodder. We'll go for the source and cut off the snake's head. Don't stop for anything, I'm going to kick the culprit's ass to the moon."
[] Write in...
 
All of these look fine. I can be convinced for any option probably but I'm going to pick the top one. Our comrades are likely in the city and Medb has a link to the cops. This is a good way to set a flag for her.

[X] "I need you to be loud and obnoxious. Use your aura to goad them into attacking you. Build that wall of bodies you always wanted. I'll go on ahead while you do your thing... And hopefully find a friend."

Morality is important in this quest. Let's not kill anymore than necessary.

Let's not look any more like Minerva than we have to okay?
 
[X] "Leave the fodder. We'll go for the source and cut off the snake's head. Don't stop for anything, I'm going to kick the culprit's ass to the moon."

Fuck the cult.
 
I'm not sure if I missed something. The only option where we don't kill anyone is the last one where we leave and let the police get wrecked. Option one is kill the cultists, option two is make everyone crazy while we run off and leave Berserker to enjoy himself.
