Current Events
This morning I find out Tohsaka had made a deal with Sakura to stay away from the house for a week and Sakura only does so because Tohsaka says she'll leave Shirou's place if Sakura goes through with it.  Doesn't seem to be the most friendly thing to do, but hey I guess this will keep Sakura out of danger and make Shinji feel better since we were pretty much holding her hostage if we wanted to hehehe.  Fuji-Nee is fine though I guess, hrrrm.
Anyway, after breakfast (with Saber too) Fuji-Nee and Tohsaka start leaving for school and Shirou decides to stay home since he has to train with Saber.  Fuji-Nee actually goes along with it and makes up an excuse for him, I don't remember how exactly he was able to do that but whatever.
In the morning Shirou and Saber train and smack each other with shinais or something.  I like how there are so many sprites and I keep getting surprised by new ones.  Shirou and Saber talk a bit of course, there seems to be a problem since Shirou doesn't want her to fight yet Saber does want to fight.  Their goals clash with each other and there won't be a resolve unless one gives in or dies or something.
Shirou goes out grocery shopping for lunch which I thought was pretty dangerous because he's alone and what not but whatever.  In any case Ilya runs up behind him and scares the crap out of him in the shopping district.  After a short scare Ilya is a pretty ordinary hypergenic girl who is pretty damn young.  I think I can see why she left suddenly after realizing that she pretty much killed Shirou.  The two of them talk a bit and Shirou finds out that Ilya doesn't really have any magus power either and is living locked up in a mansion in the woods with two maids who I have forgotten their names, whatever.  This whole scene really just develops Ilya's character anyway.  She's young, impressionable, and doesn't have a true grasp one what she's even doing, she just wants to have fun and giving her a giant Berserker sounds like trouble heh.
After going home dinner is served with everybody besides Sakura.  Shirou pulls a classic accidental pervert and stumbles upon a naked Saber about to wash since he heard she was guarding in his room and he needed a towel to dry his hair since he just took a wash too anyway.  After Saber's complete unembarrassement Shirou has a quiet dinner with everybody else.
After that Shirou heads to Tohsaka's room for some magic training, which he learns nothing of.  More new sprites of Tohsaka drawing blood from herself as well for her magic bullet crap.  Anyway, Shirou needs a magic crest and since he doesn't have one Tohsaka is going to medicine him all over.
During Shirou's night training Archer of all people walks up to him for a little "discussion" which consists of calling out all of Shirou's problems.  Archer really thinks Shirou is an idiot and should give up his ideals.  He should make Saber fight and he will not be able to save everybody.  It was a very good scene.  I wonder what will happen next, tomorrow...

Characters
School
Shirou
Training to fight Servants, which is laughable.  I like his spirit but any Servant can kick his ass and kill him instantly.  Even some Masters can kill him instantly, he really needs to do something.
Issei
I wonder if he'll find my bike sitting near the entrance of the Ryuudou Temple...
Tohsaka
Talked a bit about Magic Crests and stuff.  Also kicked Sakura away for a week, although that means Tohsaka will be leaving in a week as well.
Sakura
Didn't even see her today.
Shinji
Same.
Fuji-Nee
Saw today but nothing significant.

Don't have comments on any other classmates or teachers.  Nothing notable at least.

Servants
Archer
Is disgusted with Shirou, thinks he's some naive shounen reading boy who doesn't know anything.  Might feel sympathy for Saber?
Lancer
Hasn't shown his face.
Saber
Practiced with Shirou this morning, or more like, hit Shirou repeatably while he feel over in pain.  Still talks very rigorous and formal, has no embarrassment from being seen exposed.
Berserker
Didn't see.
Rider
Didn't see.
Assassin
Didn't see.

Miscellaneous
Kisei
No show.
Ilya
Very young, younger than I thought.  Calls Shirou "Onii-chan" even though that doesn't make any sense.  Doesn't seem to have any sense of danger or what the big picture is, yet still can show a pretty intimidating side, maybe?
Crazy white hair dude with red eyes
No show.

Master section might be coming soon.  It'll take priority over school, I'll just rewrite it as Classmates or something.

HOME INTRUSION ISSEI UWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
