No one is alone

Who: Kariya Matou, Lancer, Rin Tohsaka, residents of 1666 Nelson Street, and all of Rin's friends.
What: A party to prove to Rin that she has friends.
Where: 1666 Nelson Street.
When: Saturday afternoon.
Warnings: Possible tsunsplosion. Action tags to keep things going.

With the help of Lancer, Kariya had managed to get in touch with all of Rin's friends, acquaintances, and anyone else who views her in the slightest favorable light.  The party had been thrown together somewhat at the last minute, but since it's really just a gathering of friends, there actually wasn't that much specific planning to do.  There's plenty of food and drink - both alcoholic and non - set up in the kitchen and dining room area, and a separate table for anyone bringing presents to set them down.  Apart from that, he's just sitting there with the assembled group of Rin's friends, waiting for her to arrive.

The guests are all Rin's friends, so I don't think you really need to be so on-edge.

Given everything I have seen in this town, I believe I have every reason to be careful. Besides, it is Rin and her friends. While she is slightly more mature than she is from my universe, when provoked...

Her sister and I, as well as a mutual friend, all live here. I don't think she'd honestly get that far out of control.

[He hopes not, anyway.]

You have not seen what she is capable of, then. She has the power to at least wound a Heroic Spirit, and in terms of personality she is stubborn and sometimes overconfident. What's more, her friends are likely to have powers of their own. This house might be torn apart if someone so much as says the wrong thing.

...She's her father's daughter, all right.

[Yup, that's about all he has to say to that.]

I would suggest you be careful as well. Is there any way you can try to duck into the basement if a fight breaks out?

[waiting_for_the_worms]

I'll do my best.
