+1 archer who doesn't do much archery

[fakers]

greetings eachdraidh,

i'm rift, brand new to the game with archer from fate/stay night, a canon about teenagers summoning legendary heroes to fight one in another a grueling battle royale to the death. in reality, they all spend most of their time cooking, talking about cooking, and being passive aggressive at each other.

archer is one of those legendary heroes, but for the sake of maintaing decade-old spoilers, i'll refrain from divulging his true identity (i'm pretty sure everyone who cares already knows it by now, but it never hurts to play it safe...). he mostly passes the time by snarking and whining about how Servants shouldn't have to cook and clean, then proceeds to cook and clean. archer will be from the ending of the Unlimited Blade Works route, and is in the Unseelie Court.

anyways, i look forward to playing with you all! feel free to add me at sistercomplex, if you're so inclined.

Most legit description

Hi Rift! I'm Zen, also very new to the game!

[fakers]

the trick to archer is just always say one thing, then do the exact opposite

anyways hi zen, nice to meet you!

[athousandcurses]

Nice to meet you too! I can't help but feel they might get some CR even though they're in different courts because Grainne's going to check out the neutral place eventually and might meet Waver

[fakers]

haha yeah archer's not too attached to his particular court anyway... nor has he ever been very good at adhering to his allegiances. so we should definitely be able to find some way to get them to interact eventually!

[gordianknots]

We all know that Archer is Shinji, come on.

That said, hi, I'm Meg and I play this nerdface from after he and Rin have taken apart the Grail! Waver's been around for a few months now, has already talked Rin into getting on team neutral, so I expect we should touch base about things.

[fakers]

why would you spoil it for people like that...

anyways, hi meg! yes, it sounds like we should definitely try to get things sorted out. archer will probably defer to rin's judgment about most things, unless he decides to spin out of control and let his murderous impulses run wild again... which hopefully won't happen.

[gordianknots]

well tumblr told me he's tommy wisseu and that can't be right.

we don't trust you at all, archer.

I'm at work until about five today, but if you're okay with using e-mail to catch up, we can do that pretty quickly!

[fakers]

everyone is archer and archer is everyone

but yeah, that sounds good to me! i guess i'll just go shoot you that email then...

[red_branch]

Yep. Added.

[fakers]

maybe they'll finally be able to properly finish a fight for once

[oathshackledbird]

Hello Rift! I am Neko Sandy, player of the Lancer who won't be attacking Archer on sight. In fact, he will be very glad this Archer isn't sparkling gold!

Good luck in the game! I hope you have fun!

[fakers]

yes... for all of this archer's faults, he's still leagues ahead of the other one

anyways, nice to meet you, and thanks for the welcome!

[sangilak]

gross it's you

[fakers]

the feeling is mutual

> Doesn't do much archery

/FLIPS THE FUCKING WORLD D8<

no, got that just always gets me every time.

anyway haysup, rift, i'm Vyndasia, and i play this lady here, flora. Welcome to the gaaaame! i hope you have so much fun!

[fakers]

he's capable of it he just... rarely does it

but yes, i feel your pain

anyways thanks for the welcome!

[showmeyourwreath]

RIGHT it's just like oh my god, archer. and he's got mad skills and abilities too it's like what is your problem what do you have against archery did it threaten world order or something

and then there's goddamned gilgamesh and then i'm just like you know what, i'm out. i'm done.

thank you for this icon, though, i appreciate it. uwu

and you're welcome! 8D

[fakers]

archer at least pretends to be an archer

with gilgamesh there's no pretense at all...

SPOILERS: ARCHER'S TRUE IDENTITY IS AN ACTUAL FUCKIN' BUTLER

[fakers]

that would make more sense than the actual truth

[enjoymyatelier]

To be fair, [SPOILER] is an actual fuckin butler. He just has to embrace his true butlerdom.

[fakers]

archer's regret in life is becoming a hero instead of a butler

[gandere]

of all the gifs to use

[fakers]

it was the only one i had on hand at work

[gandere]

i just think you like the idea of archer being stepped on

[fakers]

i don't think i could play him if i didn't

[gandere]

let's see how long it takes before she beats him up

[fakers]

over/under is three threads
