Mundane.

Yes the new volume of that ridiculous AU with me not having participated in the Fourth War has been released and yes it has an illustration of myself in it. The excitement you presently have is understandable.

However, I would advise you to stop hypothesizing what this actually means in the way of the plot. There's not going to be a concrete answer until there's a translation, and that will suit you and your ridiculous need to figure out what I'm doing there and if it's a political move. Then you can sit and make concerning eeeee noises, not before.

This is not about not having fun, really, this is about waiting to have all the details. Speculation is of no use to anyone, and you know it. I think the only concrete thing you can remotely take away from the image is what Volumen Hydragyrum looks like in human form.

[ But could you get the stick out of your ass. ]

It's just speculation. No harm in it.

"Speculation" usually translates into "overly elaborate configuration of politics that are probably going to be wrong" never mind "a truly alarming amount of fanfiction along the same thematic line."

[The stick ain't budging. Ever.]

[ Must be nice and comfy there. Prime real estate. Maybe it can retire and have a family of little splinters to raise?? ]

Uhhuh.

I still think you're getting upset for no reason whatsoever. Speculation is what keeps us from being popular even though we're from a dying canon. [ When was the last time F/HA patch got an update HMMMM. ]

[Honestly, it's getting cramped. It really needs to find a larger place so it can properly grow.]

I tend to prefer to draw conclusions after all the details are available. There's less need to amend things.

[......this week, actually! We're at 100% translated and 73% patched.]

So you are incapable of having any fun!

[ ~~HOLYFUCKAREYOUSERIOUS~~ Suddenly whatever plans there may have been this weekend... ]

I am perfectly capable of having fun, but the fate of myself in another universe - and can I just say I loathe the second magic? - is not something I want to have fun with! It's serious!

[Completely serious, a few people have been posting screenshots on tumblr, including that update info. And you know, then the PV happened. And now we have more Apocrypha leaks.]

It isn't that bad. [ No, it really is. ] At least you aren't telling a pair of teenager girls how to play dress up with sticks.

[ Is he.

IS HE FROM THAT POINT? ] Haa, but I shouldn't talk about that. I never want to acknowledge that parallel world in my life.

[ Baby fandom has so much activity lately ;~; Bless our lord and savior ufotable ]

[Just. Just have a blank stare there, Rin. The blankest stare that crosses over into realization.]

Except now you've mentioned it, and implicated myself, so you not only have to acknowledge it, but elaborate on it.

[It's always the end of the year, I swear. Last year it was Apocrypha happening at all, this year it's a three car pile up!]

I refuse. I absolutely refuse. I absolutely and definitely refuse to expand any more on it beyond that.

[ WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT ILLYA'S COSPLAY ADVENTURES FOR TRADING CARD GAMES HERE.

~~everything is so amazing it needs to hurry up already~~ ]

Fine, I'll sit here and stare pointedly at you until you do.

[EXCEPT WE ARE WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, RIN.

~~are you kidding i'm waiting for the f/apocrypha anime announcement.~~]

Oh, because staring at a student so favorably is only going to go over well with the rest of the Clock Tower. It's fine--I can handle your fans.

[ Immovable object vs irresistible force, it's happening.

~~omg that would be awesome... also very likely considering Mordred's popularity!~~ ]

You really underestimate how little I care about the opinions of my esteemed colleagues, and how much I'd like something else to grouse about.

[Well, it's better than tsundere bickering.

~~Gosh we can hope. And who doesn't love Team Mordred? They're an amazing contrast to Saber and Kiritsugu's relationship, and AMAZINGLY FUNCTIONAL.~~]

You'll care when the rumors start. Not that I will heed them any as I have plenty else to do with my time, but who knows what you fill your hours with.

[ No, tsundere bickering is the best.

~~YES they are really so good it'd be great to see an anime adaption... maybe after the fsn one if luck is on our side!~~ ]

Video games, research, the internet, contemplating new methods of how to terrify students, and being mildly surprised that we manage to take apart the Grail based on your teenage self and her attitude.

[Okay true. Tsundere bickering forever.

Someone wrote really sweet Team Mordred bromance fic this year for Yuletide, and I just about exploded from cute. And hm, it might be possible. I think F/a is ending with volume 4 being released at summer Comiket.]

And here I thought it was impossible for me to have any more distaste for you.

Oh, are we talking about the improvements made to VH?

You put it in a maid outfit! That's hardly an improvement!

No, I gave her artificial intelligence, she went with the maid thing which I admittedly find a little creepy, but she made the decision.

An AU in which you did not participate in the Holy Grail War as my Master is indeed ridiculous!!

[ He takes a moment to examine Waver, even moving one of his hands over his head and then shifting it to over the other's. Afterward he puts on that big, goofy smile of his. ]

I see you have grown!! However, perhaps some things refuse to change.

It is utterly ridiculous never mind asinine, but unfortunately an AU that has been created by the Powers that Be and therefore I am obligated to complain about the Second Magic at length. Which actually isn't too different from nor--

[he takes a beat, and stares up. Always up, even now.] Oh, come on, you thought I was going to be that size forever?!

I'm sure you did, Waver Velvet. I'm certain you did.

--So, the Terminator part is also a problem, huh?

...Terminator? What the ---

[DON'T SWEAR DON'T SWEAR DON'T SWEAR]

--- in blazes are you even talking about?

I might've left the TV on while I was working and she might have picked up the notion that she's actually a murderous liquid metal robot from time to time? I mean, no better or worse than a dalek.

It makes laundry day that much more interesting.

...I'm still not entirely sure what you're talking about either way, but I think I'll be extremely cross about it regardless given that you're filling its mind with absolutely pointless pop culture instead of anything of any real cultural worth.
