History Funny / PathOfTheKing

* Rin realizing that by the Magus standard of [[DarwinistDesire seeking out spouses that can produce strong heirs]], Shirou is the perfect choice to father the next generation of Tohsaka magi. She [[HeadDesk then starts banging her head on the table]] after she comes to this conclusion while writing down her notes on him. Unfortunately, she forgets that Saber, who she has a crush on, is also in the house, and the latter sees the notes, only embarassing her ''more''.

** Why is Shirou so excited? [[spoiler:The Mystic Code is a Conceptual Armament named ''Twisted Embrace''. It's a TransformationTrinket that turns Shirou into a HenshinHero.]]

** Shirou snarking how it's obvious that PresenceConcealment is ''not'' a trait of Rider's class.

'''Medea:''' Well… either we are going to steal them or we are going to buy them.\\
'''Shirou:''' …\\
'''Medea:''' … ''[trademark evil smile]''\\

'''Narrator:''' …And expensive, too.

* A hungry Taiga chewing on Shirou.

* Rider purposefully shows up at the school gates in physical form despite Shirou telling her that she'd need to be in spirit form to look over him at school to gauge his reaction. He punishes her by taking the keys to the bike and forcing her to let him drive instead.
* Shirou snarking how it's obvious that PresenceConcealment is ''not'' a trait of Rider's class.

* When Taiga goes from angry at Shirou and Medea for sleeping together to happy when they reveal that their relationship is romantic, she confesses that she thought that Medea had just taken pity on Shirou for being a HoromoneAddledTeenager. She gets her mouth cleaned out with soap as a result.

** It's even funnier once you consider that sheer {{irony}} of Rider, known by the epithet "The Woman that Dominates" in her myth, accidentally making people think she's someone sub.

* [[spoiler:Rider]] shows up at school and unintentionally makes ''everyone'' except Rin, Saber and Sakura think Shirou is in an S&M relationship with her. Taiga is once again angry, and Medea is laughing non-stop when she hears the full details.

-->'''Medea''': "Certainly you didn't expect me to do anything worthwhile in such a cramped little space, did you? Of course I had to enlarge my workspace a little more. Don't worry, I used Magecraft to shape it but it doesn't rely on Prana to stay up. It won't crumble on your head if something goes wrong."
-->'''Shirou''': "My head?" he asked.
-->'''Medea''': "I can shift into spirit form," she pointed out smoothly, "so it's not like I would get hurt by something as mundane as a collapsing building."
-->'''Shirou''': "Well, that's reassuring," he said in mock relief.
-->'''Medea''': "It certainly is," Medea agreed with a smile, perhaps missing but probably ignoring Shirou's sarcasm.

-->'''Shirou''': "Now wait just a moment," he said holding up a hand. "All of those things require a bunch of serious equipment to be done. Do you intend to make them with Magecraft?"
-->'''Medea''': "How silly. Of course not," she laughed, waving him off. "I need stable and Prana inert tools to craft proper Mystic Codes. Things made with Magecraft tend to erode faster and they would interfere with any enchantment I'm going to use on top of that."
-->'''Shirou''': "Where will you get them, then?" he asked, feeling a sense of dread swell inside his chest.
-->'''Medea''': "Well… either we are going to steal them or we are going to buy them."
-->'''Shirou''': "…" Shirou replied.
-->'''Medea''': "…" Medea responded. Then her mouth quirked up in that evil-creepy smile of hers and the loud smack of Shirou's hand meeting his face echoed in the soon-to-be-filled Workshop.
-->'''Narrator''': Being a Hero sure was tough!
-->'''Narrator''': …And expensive, too.

-->'''Dojima''': "Fucking alien probes," he coughed with some difficulty. "I'm too old for this shit."

-->[[RunningGag It took but a moment before Taiga went limp again in Shirou's arms.]] The redhead sighed wearily. This was going to be a very long night.

--> Medea wasn't disappointed by Shirou's reaction. As the hidden treasure was revealed and its cover fell, so did Shirou's jaw. The witch had to hold back an undignified giggle at his dumbstruck expression. After a full minute, during which he didn't say anything or even move beside the minimum required breathing, Medea decided to snap him out of his funk by walking toward him and shutting his jaw closed with one finger, forcing him to look at her.
--> '''Caster:''' "I take it that you like it."
--> '''Shirou *pointing at the Mystic Code*:''' "Ah? Uh? Buh?!"
--> '''Caster:''' "Yes, yes. I made it specifically for you. Now pick up your jaw and let me show you how it works."
** Why is Shirou so excited? [[spoiler: The Mystic Code is a Conceptual Armament named ''Twisted Embrace''. It's a TransformationTrinket that turns Shirou into a HenshinHero.]]

--> The string of murders that had spread across Misaki was unusual, yes, but it didn't sound like the work of an actual vampire.

* Shirou's musing at the start of ''The measure of a monster''.
-->''As he caught his breath, picking himself up from the floor, he mused if it was a similar near-constant streak of bad luck and backfiring plans that drove Kiritsugu down the path of the Magus Killer. Honestly, could something work even remotely as intended for once?''
-->''Apparently not.''

-->The witch inhaled deeply, supercharging her vocal cords as she did, lips curling to form the words she had been wanting to speak for well over a day.\\

** Shirou gets attacked with arrows by a kid playing at "Archer, the Ally of Justice!"

* Rin gets embarrassed by her skintight HenshinHero outfit and accuses Shirou of being a pervert. Shirou points out that the reasons he made it like that were practical, and that the school swimsuits she's used aren't any looser or more concealing. Rin is retroactively embarassed.
