To Live!
I drew Melt and then I was like, “well, now I have to draw ALL of my faves…”
… I guess I didn’t have anything better to do anyway

Artoria Caster, first and foremost, will always tell you and only exactly what she wants and needs.
She doesn’t put on a brave face with you.
She doesn’t lie about what she feels like knowing what her future is going to be.
With you the mask she wears is placed to the side, and her truest feelings and fears are laid bare.
Her fear of failing the people who truly need her.
Her fear of what will happen after she fulfills her purpose.
Her fear of the responsibility that will inevitably come to her.
And because of this, you are the only person in the world, including Artoria herself, who truly knows what makes Artoria, Artoria.
Her ability to continue onward, no matter how much she stumbles, now matter how much she falls.
That being said.
This girl needs adult supervision at all times so she doesn’t burn the house or world down trying to make something for you, and no Oberon doesn’t count.
She’s very affectionate in private, however PDA isn’t something she really knows how to do nor is it something she’s entirely comfortable with aside from a side hug or linking fingers briefly.
Not to mention that physical affection, while a big part of how she shows her love, isn’t her main way of doing it.
That, for better or for worse, goes to acts of service and gifts.
I say for better or for worse because she will go to the literal ends of time and space for you.
For example if you offhandedly mentioned something that would be nice to have that’s old or an artifact of some sort, Artoria will activate her british skills, and just *Yoink* that bitch to give it to you, regardless of what happened to get it.
Luckily, you know Oberon.
Unluckily, you know Oberon.
But time to get back on track.
Artoria might be a bit pessimistic at times but that’s something to be expected considering her life, but if you manage to pull her away to somewhere for a moment and give her a little peck it’ll for one, completely shut her down even if it was only on the cheek, and two give her a ton of energy that will cancel out her pessimism, even if only for the day.
Because of this you are the first person Artoria turns to whenever she wants to “Plan” something, which she only ever does when she’s nervous and scared.
That means you and her “Plan” things out a lot.
In summary, you are a guidepost and rock for Artoria, a haven where she can be herself without fear or concern for who might see her, and because of that she will go to extremes to try and pay you back for simply existing and being with her, and no matter what you say to her this is unlikely to change, so keep her close so you can keep an eye on her, keep her loved so you can try and fix the pain her life has caused her, and most importantly, tell her the truth, tell her your honest opinion, tell her that no matter what happens you’ll always be in her corner.

Sorry for how short it is, while in the middle of finishing this up a gas leak decided to happen, everything's fine I just have a massive headache and couldn't find the force of will to make it any longer, if any of you need me I'm going to be taking a nap.
Totally forgot I’ve been farming bond on this guy for a long-ass time. At this rate Heracles will be at 10 soon, and how the actual hell am I supposed to interpret bond 10 for him? I barely got through this. Jesus cheeseballs I’ve fucked myself.
Quatre
Bond 1. “I’d rather not get involved in this Grand Order ordeal. I’m worthless in battle, I assure you.”
Bond 2. “I consider ’Mini-Waver’ is an insult. Being bronze in rarity does not make me unworthy of my True Name.”
Bond 3. “If you are going to force me to participate, I would prefer being allowed to make my own decisions.”
Bond 4. “I estimate that you are missing a number of brain cells. I wonder how you manage to tie your shoes without falling over yourself… But your dedication and reckless stupidity make you a worthy protagonist.”
Bond 5. “You aren’t as ill-equipped to work with me as I thought. Perhaps this partnership can be mutually-beneficial in the future.”
Bond 6. “Do you think I would have become a Heroic Spirit if I had succeeded as an actor or a poet instead of a weaver of children’s tales…? I said weaver not Waver! I still refuse to acknowledge that obnoxious title Chaldea has given me.”
Bond 7. “If I were to write the Tale of Chaldea, would I begin at the part where a mediocre magus is tasked with saving humanity? Or would I start where they show sympathy to devils and go weak in the knees for any pretty face?”
Bond 8. “Despite my eventual success in life, I suffered alone in poverty, never once reaching the dreams I held closest. I died clutching the undying light of hope that I desperately spread to others, wishing a better future for the children.”
Bond 9. “I never thought to publish my autobiography. The rest of the world would find no value in it. I found the exercise in writing it quite cathartic. It gave me the opportunity to explore my own values and assess them as I would another person. Since being summoned, I have thought about it more often.”
Bond 10. “I have been vilified as writer that thrived on sour endings, and you have accepted me. I have insulted you to your face in the name of brazen honesty, and you have encouraged me still. My uselessness and negativity have yet to drive you away. I could ask for no greater gift than the bond I am able to share with you. Thank you.”
“This is the single greatest panel ever published in a Transformers comic.”
"you read a lot, right?"
"yes!"
"what are some books you've read recently?"
"uhh i don't remember"
Im sorry but a good amount of servants genuinely confused at how Guda managed to befriend them despite all logic has me hella suspicious if they really are the “totally normal person” Nasu says they are. Like, Edmond is extremely confused about how you can even summon him and finds himself absolutely infatuated with you, to his own confusion. Meanwhile, inhuman(for servants) monsters like Izou and Summer BB are lowkey intimidated by Guda’s absolute lack of care, so far as to having Summer BBs Valentines have her trap Guda in another world because she wants to assure their absolute safety, where she herself doesnt understand why. Then theres the case with Foreigner Class servants, where the events of the Salem Singularity has Yog Sogoth almost desperate to posess Guda, especially since like, even if they command what is essentially an army of servants, Guda is still limited to 3 Command Seals and could be easily overrun. Then theres the fact that in part 2 we meet Jeancle, whose more or less a stand in for the Chaldea staff and he sees Guda as friendly but ultimately weird, which implies that Guda may not actually have good regular people skills but are great at speaking to Servants and other, specifically nonhuman beings, so them having been a “totally normal person” seems hella suspicious to me, even if they arent a good magus. Nasu give me the forbidden Guda lore
