“I am sure that you will succeed in your task, young one. This Uncle Merlin of yours sounds wise as well.”

"As do I, young one. You are very wise for someone your age, do you know that?"

“That is the question, isn’t it? Things need to change in order for everyone to prosper.”

“There are those that may be afraid of change, and so they fight against it.”

“What sort of package do you have for me?”

“That is a fair question in your part. I fight for the peace of my people, although some might not see it that way.”

“I am in no mood to fight with you either, so let us for now part ways, what do you say?”

“That’s a strong disposition to have, especially for someone so young.”

“That seems like an odd thing for someone to say. Surely there will be plenty of time left for you.”

🪦 Hey so how do I mass delete posts?

"That does seem to be quite the number, it is impressive to be sure."

"Why act so hastily? If it is a fight you seek, I will not disappoint you. However, things may not end in your favor."

[Arms folding atop his chest, the old Uchiha let a smile play across his face, although it did not appear to be full of joy.] "Be that as it may, had you not been in my line of sight, this might not have happened. Since it has however, what shall be done about it?"

[With a slight bow, he would smile. Although it did not quite reach the red eyes.] "You say that there are a number of siblings out in the multiverse, how many exactly?"

"No bother of course, just curious as to who would be wandering around a place such as this." [Letting his deep crimson eyes appraise the stranger now, Madara would cross his arms at chest level.]

"Yet you are the one making assumptions. Perhaps you are the instigator in this scenario." [Madara would let a single crimson eye lock onto the stranger's own amethyst iris.]

"Yes, of course you do. Forgive me, Fractal."

[Madara decided to approach this individual, and so he stepped off the branch and disappeared in a flash, landing several feet in front of him.] "Greetings, stranger. What brings you here?"

"It is a very commendable thing you attempt, especially for someone so young. What will you do when you achieve your goal?" [The elder seemed genuinely impressed by the child, finding her determination refreshing.]

"Then i commend you for your efforts, wubbox."

[A wry laugh erupts from his chest, eyes widening slightly] "Aren't we the brash one? Perhaps you think yourself beyond reproach?"

[The Shinobi was lounging about atop a nearby tree branch, musing over recent events. He happened to notice the individual walking along and decided to watch from a distance.]

🪦 Well hell's bells, now I wanna make Revan

"If it were..Then I would be forced to take offense."

"I admit that I cannot. There is very little experience for me to call upon, but your struggle is appreciated."

"Well then, I am thrilled to hear you have the assistance you require. Raising a child must be taxing to some degree."

"I cannot speak on that, I have never had the opportunity to raise a child."

"Is that a command? I would most certainly hope not."

"Well I suppose there is no harm in that. Celebration is important after all."

“I had surmised as much, after meeting one of you. Tell me, what is your primary function?”

“So there ‘are’ more of you. I had thought as much.”

“Then perhaps you should remove yourself from my field of vision.”

“You are correct. There must be someone to step in and put an end to things.”

[Staring at the TL, watching.]

((By the way, COUGH.))

“That’s very admirable you know! It takes a very noble person to stop war and make everyone happy.”

🪦 Lets plot?

“That would be acceptable, if only so that I may hear more of your lovely music.”

[Surely this couldn’t be the same Artoria from before? How very strange..] “Well it’s very nice to meet you, Lily. What brings you all the way out here by yourself?”

[He would eye her appraisingly as she approached, not quite placing where he might have seen her before.] “Greetings, little one. Where have you come from?”

“Perhaps with all this business with Nazarick, I should form my own organization.”

🪦 Just thinking, a Hashirama or Tobirama would be cool to see

[Unsure of where he had ended up, Madara would continue to survey the surroundings of the nearby area. This place was most certainly interesting. When he noticed the individual taking samples of the water, however, he decided the best way to gather information was to ask.] “Excuse me!”

[Madara had a feeling he knew which group this individual was making reference to, but deemed it important enough to ask, anyhow.] “I am merely taking in the sights, while meeting new and interesting people. Tell me, this group, what is their name?”

[Stepping lazily from the shadows, the Uchiha would show himself, a mirthless smile in his face. Acknowledging the stranger, he would speak.] “Aren’t we the perceptive one? Tell me, what brings someone like you here?”
