You make a contract with me as a Servant. If the alarm goes off, I can use one of my two Command Spells to send you over to this exact door, if I can envision it clearly.

Upstairs

Jasmine: ...And you would be assured of a Servant-type as an ally.

Roof

(Hey, Ramona. It seems your contemplation has drawn the curiosity of a bunny-cat on that branch over there.)

...

(frowns slightly)

Just for here. Once I gain access to my own Servants, I can release you from the contract if you wish.

Upstairs

Jasmine: ...Hmm. It may be better to obtain Mistress' blessing for something like this. She has not had the greatest of experiences with contracts.

Roof

Kyubey: <I come by on occasion, mainly to observe.> (hops across the gap to the roof nearby Ramona) <What about you?>

Upstairs

(The door opens to reveal Homura...in pajamas.)

Jasmine: ...No progress, Mistress?

Homura: (to J) You know how difficult she can be. (needs a moment to register who else is at the door) ...Why didn't you warn me?

Jasmine: She knocked before I could act.

Homura: ...(looks at Jasmine like a disappointed mother for a moment before turning to Clarice) Yes?

(blinks, a bit flustered at her impulsiveness)

Well, she - (gestures to Jasmine) - we might want to make a contract. Temporarily.

Outside

Kyubey: <Oh? Do you mind if I ask what you're thinking about?>

Upstairs

Homura: ...(looks over at Jasmine)

Jasmine: It would be helpful in fighting the effects of the loose Holy Grail in this dimension.

Homura: You know what you would be getting into, right?

Jasmine: Of course, Mistress.

Homura: ...(thinks it over for a moment)

Upstairs

Homura: ...(takes off the blue pendant around her neck) Infuse this. One more time. I will make it work.

Jasmine: (takes the pendant, clasps it in her hands, and closes her eyes into a meditative state)

...?

(Clarice's arm falls slack as she watches the proceedings, half-expecting this to be a Rule Breaker ritual of sorts)

Upstairs

(Well, she isn't entirely wrong.)

Jasmine: (finishes whatever she was doing, opens her eyes and hands the pendant back to Homura - it's glowing a little whiter than before now)

Homura: ...(takes the pendant back and puts it back around her neck, summons her Soul Gem) ...Are you ready?

Jasmine: (nods) I am, Mistress.

Homura: (closes her own eyes, the air behind her starts to warble as psychedelic wings begin to appear behind her back)

Roof

Kyubey: <It's rather difficult to secure those kind of things, isn't it?>

Upstairs

(As Homura's outfit gradually looks more like Homucifer's, an intensity develops in her eyes as she looks at Jasmine and Clarice. Something of a sneering smirk began to show before it disappeared with some apparent difficulty.)

Homura(?):    ...You have some nerve to think this will be enough to hold.   

Jasmine: If I believed Mistress couldn't do it, you would not be here.

Homura(?):    Hmph. All the same, I feel the fear even as it amuses me.    (looks at the somewhat-different-looking Soul Gem in the palm of her hand)    You want out, do you?    (extends a finger - a claw seems to extend from that finger)    All gifts have their cost.    (curls the finger and swipes at her own Soul Gem - a small shattering sound can be heard as Jasmine suddenly flinches in pain, her right hand covering her left)    All desires have their toil.    (Another swipe - this time Jasmine grasps the right side of her face)    All desires...have their despair.    (One more swipe - Jasmine collapses to her knees, clutching her heart.)

...!

(Clarice's eyes widen, though she remains stoic otherwise)

...

(she clutches her left hand into a fist, raising it forward in front of her)

...I announce. Thy body shall be under thy command. My fate shall be determined by thy sword.

(she's staring down Homura, but her words - and the direction of her fist - are pointed towards Jasmine)

Follow the call of the Holy Grail. If thou wouldst obey this mind and this reason, obey me.

(the two Command Spells on her hand glow a brilliant red, illuminating the entire room)

Then I shall entrust my fate to your sword.

(her fist opens up into a hand - looking towards the weakened Jasmine, she extends this glowing hand to her, as if gesturing for her to take it)

Main Room

Homura(?):    ...    (is seemingly kinda haughty in her stare-back at Clarice)

Jasmine: ... (gathers the strength to lift her head up towards Clarice's hand)

I forget - what specifically is she supposed to say/do here?

Roof

Kyubey: <Especially in a place like this where Witches have been known to hunt for prey.> (If he knows the second meaning for Ramona, he isn't showing it.)

Eh, it varies from work to work so we can just BS it here

(Clarice's hand grasps Jasmine's tightly)

(Jasmine can feel a strange anchor being drawn between them, an incorporeal bond that feels like it's holding up all her weight)

(but the weight begins to draw off as magical energy flows across this path and into Jasmine, her strength returning to her)

There. Now our contract is complete, Archer.

(she seems to teeter a bit as she says this, before looking back at Homura)
