First Command
WHO: Kiritsugu Emiya and you.
WHERE: Just about any street.
WHEN: Post-hunt.
WARNINGS: Happiness and rainbows.
SUMMARY: Kiritsugu attempts to figure out what is going on, not resorting to extreme methods until he figures out who to employ them on.
FORMAT: Either's good.
Emiya Kiritsugu has quite deliberately neglected to use the comm. He entered the Holy Grail War quite ready to mentally cope with any bizarre occurrences that may inconvenience him. In a profession filled with combat against supernatural beings, transportation to another world, or at least the illusion of it, is not impossible to contemplate.
One fact does hint towards greater matters being at play, which is the disappearance of his Command Spells. Kiritsugu hasn't tried using them, even now unwilling to risk wasting one (not at all helped by the nature of his last confrontation with his Servant), but he fails to feel the same traces of prana in his hand he used to perceive if he concentrated. Would that mean he has been stripped of his status as a Master? A worrying thought, but if so, it is simply a matter of eliminating all the others before they can claim the Grail, taking some of the command spells along the way through any means necessary. Not infallible, but he's not being given a lot to work with.
Regardless of the true nature of this obstacle, the fact remains that Kiritsugu has already been here for half a day. It may not sound like much, but it is a half a day inserted right in the middle of what Emiya Kiritsugu considered the most important couple of weeks of his life. Everyone's lives. Having already gathered a fair amount of information - the basics anyone with access to the internet may obtain, Kiritsugu decides to walk around the city. If this is an illusion caused by a bounded field, he will feel his way to a particularly vulnerable point and neutralize it. Until then, he's treating this as a very real situation, not reacting overly paranoid, but certainly keeping an eye on anyone who happens to come close to him. Those with a knack for detecting the paranormal may feel tinges of magecraft surrounding him. Those who don't will still see a man who hasn't slept for days now, and certainly looks the part.

no subject
It strikes him as strange that this matters. He's cut ties with the life this man saved and shaped long ago, hasn't he? It shouldn't matter. It shouldn't matter at all--and what's worse is he can't figure out if he wants them to be enemies or not.
"It's too bad, though." He can hide all that confusion well enough, though. He can kill his emotion too. Maybe not as well as Kiritsugu, but well enough for now. "Magecraft is supposedly about give and take, but I can't give you my name. Even here, I won't take that risk." He watches Kiritsugu's face carefully. "Call me Archer."
