Good evening.

[ The video flickers on, and there's a very pale, very fatigued-looking Archer sitting in his apartment. A dragon egg is also visible, nestled in a bundle of blankets next to him. (Is he nesting??)

In any case, he doesn't mince words. ]

Since we're all likely experiencing similar symptoms, I'll be brief - I'm looking for moonlacing partners, specifically hand-holding and basic physical contact. Anything more than that is subject to discussion.

[ He moves a hand, and just for a moment, it almost looks translucent. Or maybe, it's just the crystals staring to form on his skin. ]

Thank you for your time.

[ With that, he ends the feed. ]

[ Well. Isn't this familiar? Incredibly so, but Fiore (who is pale but definitely not translucent) is very quickly reaching out a response. ]

I'd be more than willing to help.

[gwenhwyfar]

Well. That's not very fun, is it? [ Sounding very, very enthused, clearly. ]

Are you going to tell me how to hold your hand, too?

[ringlette]

[ That face is so recognizable as that of the chef Archer from Chaldea she got so much good food from, and her chest tightens at the sight of his hand.

So many people have taken on this task without finding a partner earlier... how reckless! But worry not, the Queen is here now! ]

Tell me your location, if you please. I'll be there in a flash!

[flirtations]

[ Jae-ha doesn't look quite so bad, just a little tired, but his egg is never far from his side, either, and is currently strapped to his front like it's an actual baby. ]

Your charm could really use some work. I can't think of anything less romantic than calling it "basic physical contact".

[ He grins, but despite how.. uninspiring Archer's message is, it is pretty concerning that this person is almost translucent. ]

Geez, you really let it get that bad, huh?

[timemachine]

[Here's a girl who looks pale, but she seems to be getting by. Somewhat.]

Just hand holding, right? I'm not interested in anything more than that. [And anything more won't be up for discussion for her.]

[nihonkoku]

[ oh. he looks a little like japan feels. ]

That.. seems very straightforward. Will that truly be sufficient..? [ because.. this looks more like an emergency at this point, though japan doesn't want to come out and say it. ]

[systembreaker]

Ohhh? Are you looking for someone a little defenseless?

( When the feed flicks on, Integra herself is looking far too pale. Already not the most physically affectionate person on her own, and definitely beginning to feel the strain from her egg, she's ready to answer at the sight of a familiar face. )

I'd be more than happy to assist. ( Help her Archer, she's suffering. ) Where would you like to meet?

( Her egg remains nestled beside her on her bed, where she is-- at present, sprawled out pathetically. )

[doctoring]

[ What kind of doctor would he be if he didn't respond to such a straightforward request for aid? Especially when he knows the Servant in question, at least kind of.

Romani immediately reaches out. ]

Was I just seeing things, or is your body starting to crystallize?

Tell me where you are, and I'll come over right away!

[Shirou is also very pale when he replies. His dragon egg is likewise close by. He, too, has been ignoring the need to moonlace while still trying to give enough Chroma to his egg.]

So no matter how strong you are, you can't fight the effects of the egg either, huh?

[Somehow, that makes Shirou feel even more determined to supply his own egg with what it needs. Maybe because it means he did it better than Archer now?]

[galatining]

[Well that isn't a good sight. It's pretty worrisome.]

Did it just catch up to you suddenly? I would have thought that you of all people were more cautious about that sort of thing.

[letxequalnull]

I should be willing to offer assistance, if required.

[With Xemnas' hood up as it is, it's harder to see the fatigue lining his expression. But it's there in his voice which, while always sort of unhurried, now drags a little around some of his words.]

[She's surprised he's asking for anything like this, but if that's what he needs...

Especially since the crystals are beginning to form.]

Archer, where are you?

Hey there! I'm Hal. (´ ∀ ` *)

I'm happy to offer, but I'm a bit older compared to some folks here. You also look like you've gotten a few offers! If you still want or need some help, let me know.
