fate grand order`s newest Saberface assassin

Spoiler:

I'd be lying if I said I didn't like the design, but... Why?

So how does you every day office life pass by. Hectic, relaxed, tense, where did the time go, etc.

It really depends. If I have experiments to do, it's usually a fast and hectic day. If I'm doing data workup or something, it's pretty relaxed. If we're stuck between projects and my boss is busy, then it's usually a drag finding ways to look busy.

"finding ways to look busy."

LoL. at least that means your stuff is not kept pending : D

so hows your IT department , do they monitor everyone's browsing activity and placed blocks on social media websites and the likes of Youtube?

Pretty much. Although everyone just browses on their phones if they want to.

ah its the same here too. (for people checking up the social sites, they use the mobile data plan)

I just got myself a personal router and connect to it for mostly everything. when i need to print something, or use the share server, i temporarily connect to the office net. 

Though i have to keep in check the download limit. My package gives me monthly 30 GB and the office net is 1.5 TB. but because of the firewall, couple of features that i may need for downloading large software updates via custom clients, applications, programs, is blocked, thus i have to be careful with what i download while using my own net.

Hmm, I see. :0

Oh yeah, have you seen Suicide Woods or The Boy? Both look like pretty creepy movies. I want to see both.

something new, old :0
The titles don't appear to be familiar to me :|

Is it about The Boy lost in a place where people go to die, thus they named it Suicide Woods  

LoL

Speaking of Suicide I did watch a movie ages ago by the name of 

Suicide Club. It's a Japanese Movie and I think I watched it on Youtube.

Also there are another horror series (Korean) with the Ghost theme by the name of Whispering Corridors series that you could check out, if you're into those kinds.

From what I've seen, the Koreans, Japanese and Thailand and maybe also Taiwanese do a much better job at these kinds of movies than the Americans, who are mostly making western remakes of the original Asian source material (Chinese I think I've seen more fantasy style than horror) :/ Though you need to have an acquired taste for them : )

I don't remember if there was any links between the Whispering Corridors series apart from having similar themes so it shouldn't be an issue if they aren't watched in order, apart from the changes in movie production (older graphics to newer)

Two new movies. They came out in theatres this month. One has Natalie Dormer and the other Lauren Cohan, two actresses I really like.

hmmm lol I don't I've heard those names too :P
Will have it to check it out myself

Natalie Dormer plays Margaery Tyrell in Game of Thrones. She was also Anne Boleyn on the Tutors and Cressida in the last Hunger Games movie.

Lauren Cohan played Bela Talbot on Supernatural. I think she's on the Walking Dead now.

Margaery Tyrell, I know of that name lol.
The actress got a distinctive smile and lip structure :0
But lol she's 33. quite the age gap between our ages  

For Bella, I read up on her caharacter.. I kind of remember her being in Supernatural but don't really remember the scenes. :/

So yeah, if the script is engaging enough, I might look into the movies :0

Yes, she does. Very striking, pretty features.

Wait, how old are you?

She was in season 3. Occult thief extraordinaire.

Its stated below the join date :0
lol anyone 2 to 3 years older to me in age is too much of a gap (-__-);;

only a month left and I'll be alive for 27 years   

Oh yeah lol.

Fair enough. Maybe it's dumb, but it definitely seems weird to me for a guy to date an older girl than for a girl to date a younger guy.

maybe its the latent motherly instinct that kicks in for her... lol I don't know, never really thought about it.
For me 1-year gap is the maximum limit. older or younger, naturally same age would be preferable.. to me

though there are many cases where there is a gap of 5-10 years, where the man is the older one... :/

As much as we try to profess that we've moved on from old traditions, we're clearly still entrenched in some of the mindsets of yonder ages (not that that's always a bad thing).

In this case, the notion comes from the tradition of women marrying off to older men. In fact, women marrying men their own age is fairly new in the history of human culture, brought on by the romanticism of recent times. However, women marrying younger men never served a purpose, nor is there a particularly romantic element to it, so it was never widely accepted. I think you're right to think that because it has no place in old traditions, the closest thing we imagine to it is a mother-son relationship, which is squicky. Even today, a noticeable difference between an older woman and a younger man is bound to get raised eyebrows.

lol unless they're the amazonian types. in that case they would prefer younger as they'll be much easier to overpower.But if they go by the concept of "the tougher looking or acting man they break, the higher the woman would be ranked among her fellow sisterhood", then it doesn't matter if the man is older or younger XP

Yeah, cause there's a lot of Amazonian tribes around.

So, I'm playing SMT: Nocturne, which has an unusual mid-battle trading system where your enemies can sometimes ask you questions or request items. Doing what they want can either cause them to join your party, leave the battle without attacking, or give you something in turn. Denying them usually just pisses them off.

Anyway, get into a battle with some Fomor (big fat demons that look like mutated mountain goats). One of the lumbering demons comes up and asks:

"Can I have a Life Stone?"

Being the gracious girl that I am, I say yes.

"Thanks! Here, take this."

*obtains Life Stone x1*

>.> .........thanks?

why release a sci-fi design servant in the middle of a star wars event?

or why is the one Saber with a vendetta against all the other Seiba-faced people an assassin?

or why Sword Art online?

the last one makes sense if you know SAO and look at her NP:

classic nocturne

lol its like using the RUN command but instead of dropping money, you get an item instead : D

story wise.. maybe he felt nervous and wasn't expecting to be treated so kindly so he simply gave the item back and ran away all embarrassed and stuff :P

But yeah I vaguely remember that mechanic, it pretty decent to have, makes battling and catching pokemon, less interesting or fun. (Pokemon Safari park area, you can throw stones or give food alongside throwing nets or special pokeballs at the right instances, instead of the normal battling to get a higher chance of catching them )

I meant why does she exist?

Lol, I guess that could be it. In any case, I'm really enjoying the New Game+ cycle. Since I gave myself max money, I've been able to have full access to my Compendium of demons. Surprisingly, I haven't totally abused this by taking back all my best. I've just been taking some weaker demons that I like and pimping them out.

she exists for the sole purpose of comedy, like the 2013 april fools(to bad translators stopped bothering with it)
