Eins

For the elements, silver and iron. For the foundation, stone and the Archduke of Pacts. And for the ancestor, my great master, Schweinorg. Close the gates of the four directions. Come forth from the Crown and follow the forked road leading to the Kingdom. Fill, fill, fill, fill, fill. Repeat five times. When each is filled, destroy it. Set.

Heed my words. My will creates your body, and your sword creates my destiny. If you heed the Grail's call and obey my will and reason, then answer me! I hereby swear that I shall be all the good in the world. That I shall defeat all evil in the world. Thou Seventh Heaven, clad in the three great words of power, come forth from the circle of binding, Guardian of the Scales!

[This is a master (haha) post for Fate/PSLs! If you need anything specific tailored to your character (like a starter that doesn't start with the summoning like the above) let me know! We'll work something out over PM or Plurk.]

[Rin ended up letting her Saber have the outfit Kirei had given her as a gift. She was never going to wear it, so might as well put it to use. The two contrast each other — Saber in blue, and Rin in red.

As they go about their day there's nothing really of note to say. That is until Saber speaks up. Her tone of voice sends chills down Rin's spine, and immediately her eyes scan the area as her muscles tense up. When she speaks, her voice is hushed.]

Yes, Saber?

[Maybe she can sense something Rin hasn't yet been trained to pick up on.]

[ Saber simply stands there for a few moments before speaking again, her mind trying to process that smell. As a Servant she didn't require physical sustenance, but at the same time the delicious smell simply couldn't be denied. She needed whatever food that shop was selling, and she needed it now. ]

We should eat. It is well past lunch time, and I am sure you are exhausted after last night and having to walk around all day. That restaurant over there will suffice.

[ Saber's tone is urgent and deathly serious. This clearly isn't a request or a suggestion. This is a demand. ]

[Despite Saber's demeanor, Rin tries brushing it off. Her hand waves in a dismissive gesture and she starts to move forward.]

I am feeling hungry, but we've got food at home. I don't need to be spending money eating out. We can turn in and come back at night.

[ As Rin turns to leave, Saber simply reaches out and grips Rin by the shoulder. Her grasp is firm enough to keep her from yanking away if she tries but not hard enough to actually hurt. ]

I insist. Besides, I find myself growing hungry as well. [ Not necessarily true, but it's the best way to describe how she's feeling. ] We should stop here before continuing with the tour of the city. Returning to your house would simply serve as a diversion from our mission.

[The grip that causes her to halt catches Rin by surprise. Rin frowns, and it's clear she's not happy that Saber insists on stopping to eat.]

Fine, I'll allow it. But I don't have the funds to keep doing this.

[And it's not like some guy can be charmed into buying the meal for two girls without expecting something in return. She can't keep getting freebies off of others if she has a companion.]

[ Something in the back of Saber's head registers the fact that Rin isn't happy, but at this point that delicious scent seems to override her normal thoughts. Tasting that food currently takes precedent over all else.

So they make their way over to the restaurant, and Saber's face looks akin to a child in a candy shop. She unconsciously licks her lips as she looks over the menu board, her hunger growing by the second. However while the grail has given her a basic knowledge of the modern world, ordering food unfortunately isn't one of those things, so she'll look to Rin expectantly for guidance. ]

[Rin notices the way Saber licks her lips and stares hungrily at the menu board. She has a defensive urge to pretend she lost her wallet, but she thinks Saber would know she's lying. Tohsaka isn't about to sour her relationship so early in the game with her Servant. Or, at least, not in this case. At least Saber actually asked. When they finally get to ordering Rin sounds defeated, and orders the cheapest meal on the menu. She tries to urge Saber to do the same, but...

It might not be a successful endeavor.]

[ Saber watches Rin place her order intently, and noting how the process takes place. Once she finishes, Saber steps forward and after proceeding to stare at the menu for a few more seconds she begins to place her order. ]

I’ll have two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 5s, one with cheese, and a large drink.

[ Saber's tone and face are deathly serious, indicating that yes she really did just order all of that food. The cashier just looks baffled, staring at Saber as if to confirm that he heard her right. ]

[Oh, no. No. No, no, no, no. She can't do that. She can't handle all that! That's too much! That's way more than she should be getting! Hell, even if her servant can eat that stuff, Rin's mana supply should be enough that she doesn't have to. What a waste of cash!]

No. If I'm paying for your food you're only getting one meal.

[ Saber turns to Rin, her face stern after hearing that, no, in fact her master is not going to let her order such a ridiculous amount of food. ]

You would seek to deny me?

[ Saber is completely ignoring how this power dynamic is supposed to work. She is the servant. Rin is the master. This is exactly how this works, but Saber isn't pleased at the denial of a feast. ]

I can't pay for all of that. I've spent most of my money preparing for the—

[Crap, she can't say 'War' in front of a cashier. Rin leans in to give Saber quite the frustrated look. A few people in line behind them are getting impatient, but Rin doesn't care.]

You know. They won't let you have what you can't pay for.

Hmph.

[ Saber is clearly not pleased nor does she care about those growing impatient behind her. Still there's not much to be done. So she'll turn back to the cashier and change her order to just a triple quarter pounder with extra cheese meal with the extra large fry and drink. It's easily double the cost of Rin's order, but she won't be denied this. ]

[Goodness. It's a good thing Saber is power manifest or else that would be some worrying calorie intake. Rin makes a face before finally caving and paying for the order. When they step out of the ordering line to wait for their food Rin whispers, but does so harshly.]

But you don't even need to eat.

[ Saber is completely unphased by Rin's harsh tone, but when she speaks it's clear that she's a bit indignant. She's not used to having her requests denied. ]

I do not need to eat, but that does not mean that I do not want to eat. The food smelled appealing, and thus I desire to consume it. Is that not logical?

[ The entire place reeks of grease and fat. It smells incredibly crude and unrefined, making it even more perplexing that someone normally so dignified and refined would want to eat here. ]

Sure, it is, but why would you want to eat so much?

[Quality over quantity, Saber!

Rin sighs. Their order comes up, and she takes the tray that has their food on it. Saber's burger absolutely dwarfs Rin's... everything. Tohsaka finds them a booth, and takes a seat.]

[ Why not have both quality and quantity! The food smells good so she orders a lot. Come on Rin this is just basic logic try to keep up.

She follows Rin to the table, taking her seat across from her master. She pauses for a moment, marveling at how absolutely massive her burger is, practically drooling at the sight. Before long she can no longer resist and begins to chow down, her slim fingers miraculously somehow managing to wrap around the burger Her eating style isn't exactly gluttonous, but there's a barely restrained ravenous greed as she eats. ]

[Rin simply watches. The food in front of her stays untouched for the moment as she observes Saber. The Master stares on like a safari group stares at a pride of lions devouring a fresh kill. She's impressed, but also a little disturbed. After a few moments of watching Rin finds herself torn, and decides to pick at her own meal as thoughts come through her head.

Is she disappointed? How could she be? She drew the best card after all. Didn't she? Rin sighs softly while lifting a fry to her mouth. Something just doesn't feel right. Something is out of place, even if everything should be absolutely, unequivocally, perfect.]

[ Saber is far, far too busy indulging in the carnal pleasure of the super greasy burger to notice Rin's initial trepidation. She manages to finish her food in record time despite her small frame, and she tilts her head when she sees the confusion lurking in her master's eyes.]

Are you still upset over my choice in food?

No. I'm thinking.

[Over thinking is more like it, and it's one of her pitfalls. Rin is always so concerned with being the best magus she can while making sure it doesn't conflict with her own set of morals (it often does) that she loses sight of small but important details.

She eats her fry, and chews it while her pensive expression turns into a frown.]

But... where does all that food even go?

[Her Saber is small. Smaller than her, even. Both in height, weight, and... well, the chest too, but Rin wasn't really looking that hard!]

[ Rin is without a doubt sabersexual. This is clearly a fact. Still it's probably for the best that Saber didn't catch Rin looking at her chest.

Saber frowns a bit at that question. Just what is she implying? ]

It... goes into my stomach? I'm not quite sure I understand the question. When a Servant materializes outside of their spirit form, we are not simply just shells with nothing inside. We take on physical forms, including all of the muscles, organs, and other such things required by most humans to live.

[ As she explains, her hand slowly sneaks forward as it attempts to nab one of Rin's fries. Yes even after eating all of that food Saber is still hungry. ]

[A frustrated growl rumbles in Rin's throat. Her frown turns sharper as her brow furrows.]

That's not what I meant. Did you eat this way before you were a Servant?

[ Saber manages to sneak one of Rin's fries, and as she pops it into her mouth her tone is defensive. ]

And what if I did? I fail to see why my eating habits are your concern.

They are if I'm responsible for paying for them, [she grumbles in a hushed voice.]

You just don't have a body that says you're a big eater, okay?

You would underestimate me then.

[ Because this is clearly what this is all about. ]

Well you may rest assured, Master, that I intend to exceed your expectations in all categories. So long as you provide me with the proper support I need, our victory is a foregone conclusion.

But that's not what— Saber, stop misunderstanding me! How do you keep it of? Do you work out?

[She must work out a lot. Rin has some exercise routine of her own, but she still is somewhat conscious of what she eats! Then again trying to buy in bulk on sale days mean Rin is limited in choices when it comes to food, and most fast food for her is viewed as a rare 'treat.']
