Toast pops up, only to be snatched by a young girl who throws it on a plate, smothers it in jam, and proceeds to sit down and devour it while chugging a tall glass of Orange Juice. Earbuds where in their battle stations, and she had changed into a long jacket over her skirt.
Across the long table was, once again, Archer. In front of him, instead of a filled plate, was a map of the city with certain locations circled in pencil. He looked over it once again thoughtfully, before making another mark over the Temple.
"...How great is the Magnus Association's control over the local police forces?"Napoleon looked down at the map, the police stations marked with triangles.
"Mumph?" was the response, and Kaho pulled out her earbuds and swallowed an impressively large mouthful of food.
"You are part of the Association, you should know. How strong is your control over the local police forces?""...I don't know...I really never paid close attention to things like that until recently. You...aren't planning on getting normal humans involved in the War, are you?""Of course not...It is the Police Forces job to stop people from shooting each other on the streets, is it not? They can hardly be considered normal people!""A-archer you can't be serous!""I am not. Normal police men would just give our enemies Prana if they tried fighting. They may be able to take out a lone master, but I would rather trust that task to a Heroic Spirit on our side. A war is not won on firepower alone. The Police seem to be our best bet for logistics, receiving Information from around town, and controlling Mortals. I could get you a gun from them, send some around town to report any incidents, restrict the Temple...They have many uses unrelated to fighting.""...This still doesn't feel right...""You are thinking about this the wrong way! Please understand. I can also implement curfew, and use them to keep Normal people safe. See? Its a good thing. We are saving lives.""...I...I understand. I trust your plans, Archer.""Wonderful. Finish your Breakfast, then we deploy..."Kaho and Napoleon attempt to use Convince on the local police forces, taking them under control if possible. If successful, they send out patrols to report any strange activity (such as Servant battles destroying entire streets
), tape off and report anything happening in the Temple, and to hand over equipment to Napoleon.
