CHAPTER IDGAF ~ HAPPY NEW YEAR [video]
[ Just before midnight strikes, a familiar face appears on the screen. I'm sure you guys haven't forgotten who this sexy yet horribly loud-mouthed and douchey guy is. And it's probably no surprised that he's once again drunk off his ass, cuddling with one of the infamous lion cubs kept housed in his condo. ]
Hee, hee, hee. Looks like these mongrels finally got the right idea about their so-called celebrations. Here's to another year of doing whatever the fuck we want, Ur-Nungal!
[ Yes, you are now witnessing the moest interaction between one of the most notorious men in Prospero with a lion cub. He can't really be all that bad, can he? They even share a kiss! ...Sort of. ]
It won't be long before I actually have to start letting you outside. I wonder how these mongrels will react, hm? You're very tame for what you're supposed to be, but I suppose that's how it should be in such a place. Arturia has taught you well.
Ah well, we'll worry about that when the time comes, won't we? Happy New Year.

video; 1/2
She'll disconnect the feed with that. ]
action; !!!
[ A lioness is often protective of her cubs, so it's only natural this one shows up after such a public display. Unfortunately for him, she's not dressed as he prefers, having stripped herself free of those vestments in Gawain's care. No, instead he can see her in that cute f/ha outfit instead. ]
What am I to do with you? [ Treating him as though he were a child, she'll stroll him to pick up the bottle from which he poured from last. ] Too much.. you drink far too much.
action; oh you
Whatever. He still has his lion snuggly lion bro, who seems to be adoring all the affection. ]
Woman, do you forget that this is my condo? I should be allowed to drink however much I damn well please. Besides, this is a decent occasion to drink for. Out with the old, in with the new.
action; i know, i know, i'm the best
It is also a time for resolutions, where you decide to pick up goals to better yourself and those around you. [ This leaves her to stand before him, holding the bottle at her side lazily. ] If you plan to celebrate, tell me of your goals, Archer.
action; nope i am
Making resolutions would imply I find some sort of flaw in my life. I obviously have none to make. [ man he's just going to lie to himself forever at this rate. ]
action; fine i can give you that much
Then let us make resolutions for the other instead. [ A risk, but one she's willing to make. ] I state one for your consideration and you can state one for my own.
action; i mean it's in my username and all
...Very well. However, I get to go first.
[ He'll roll onto his stomach now, continuing to idly play with the young cub. It's like he's really only paying half attention, despite directly addressing her. ]
Something tells me you'll ask me to change the way I am. It's in your nature. So, I'll ask you for something you cannot do as well.
[ Only then will he turn his focus to her alone, those almost distant crimson eyes locking onto hers. Behind the obviously influence of the drink, there's something real in there. ]
...Stop being such an unbelievable Lilit. You may not always be concious of it, but you are.
action; and in this comment clearly
[ And there comes the doubt creeping in on her mind. Was it not too long ago that she fell under the influence of Diarmuid's shadow and thought herself to be in love with him? No, she couldn't be in love with him even still. Shirou.. Shirou was another, but he was her heart's delight. She was meant to be with the boy despite all of the troubling circumstances they've found themselves in.
Dangerous words the man before her spoke, if only due to recent events allowing her to believe strongly in them. Her balance wavers as much as her will as she gently holds out the bottle for him once more. ]
I.. I am no such thing, Gilgamesh. [ Yes, she did just drop the real name in this. ] Y-You explain yourself this very instant or else!
action; tonight on jerry springer...
[ He couldn't help but sigh, turning once more to his lion companion and giving him a few rubs on the head before eventually picking himself off the floor, giving the woman before him his undivided attention. Perhaps to make his message all the more clear? ]
Since I came here, I've done nothing but think of you, dream of you, work to gain your favor. And where has it gotten me? I've never had to put up with something like this. You sap my energy, my time, my love. You are, therefore, a succubus.
action; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiKvrz_WGGE enjoy that blast from the past
So instead, I grant you companionship. Even though you are insufferable most of the time, I bear it for reasons I much rather keep to myself. Do you think me incapable of supporting myself? [ With that, she shakes her head. ] No, I hold three jobs and I still fight during the Dark Hour all the same. If I desired so, I could buy my own home and live in the luxury the past few months have granted me.
[ Yet, she remains here with a man who makes her very blood boil. ]
A king can never submit to another king. Yet, we can form alliances and work together to bring about wondrous things. Instead of fighting the other, we should be out there defending the people of this place.
action; cue angsty sumerian music
[ Honestly, what does she think she's hiding? ]
For reasons you can not openly speak about. Really? Do you think I'm so dense as to not see what you're doing? I don't need you to live with me out of pity, Saber.
action; i was about to ask if they even had angsty music back then but they did have slash writers..
[ Forcing herself to look away, she tries so hard to maintain what little composure she has in this situation. ]
I came before you to ask if you would reconsider treating others the way you do so that.. so that perhaps I would not feel so ill when I think of being here with you. If you must treat others poorly, save it and unleash it upon the true source of your frustration - me.
[ She stayed here because she was interested in seeing the type of man he could become - a king without his treasury, it interested her. Perhaps her influence in his life might shape him into a better person. There were so many reasons in her mind that she chose to be here with him over the others and yet, she keeps them to herself. ]
Perhaps.. Perhaps Shirou does not understand or perhaps he is acting as a boy his age does. [ The latter pains her to admit. ] Boys that age.. they do not stick with their first loves and it was brief during our time, so it would not come as a surprise should he tell me he feels otherwise. Furthermore, his father is my old Master from the Fourth War.. I am certain you know how things stand right now.
action;
...You choose to stay, yet you desire for me to change my ways to suit your tastes. And lets say that I did this. That I became some sort of upstanding model for society. What would change? Absolutely nothing. I would be no closer to claiming you as my own. I will never be good enough for you.
[ He finally said it. ]
But then we reach another stone in the road, don't we? If I don't change my ways, you'll continue to feel ill as you say, despite staying here this long. So, what will it be? If I refuse to change, will you leave me?
[ And then he laughs. He laughs at the absurdity of it all. Why hadn't he realized this sooner? He was a fool. ]
No, you can't. Because that would be too dangerous. You can't trust me to behave on my own. That is your true reason for staying, isn't it?
action;
[ His claims are bold and while there's truth in them, she does wonder the purpose of them. Was he finally dismissing her of this cruel fascination or was he throwing a fit for her attention? ]
... You are right though. I am here to watch over you and to ensure the safety of the people within this city. Yet, when you word it as you do.. I cannot help but feel as though I am what you claim me to be. Perhaps I have lost sight of my intent and beliefs in this city.
action;
[ Because he couldn't do it. Even if he had finally realized that the idea of them actually together was just outside of the realm of possibility, there was a part of him that couldn't bare letting her go. Because he was afraid to admit defeat of any sort. He was selfish and irrational. And so, the obvious choice was to let her choose. He wasn't going to force her to stay or leave. ]
However, if you decide to stay, do so because you wish to be here, not because you're afraid of what I may or may not do. It's insulting, one king to another. If you wish to remain as a companion, as you say, that means you need not remain as a babysitter. When you make it seem as though living with me is a duty, it cuts deeper than any blade ever could. I derserve more than that from you.
action;
But it was the best she can offer him. ]
Gilgamesh. [ Her tone's soft, the usual edge diminished. ] There are many traditions people uphold with the come of a new year, I have discovered, so let us dismiss this current one in favor of something better.
[ It wasn't quite midnight yet, so it was something they can do. Even if there's a part of her mind screaming "WHY", it was a step she needed to take as a king. To show a better understanding in others and their desires. ]
As of this moment.. I hold no ill thought of you, Gilgamesh. Your actions of the past are no longer of consequence within my mind. The slate, as they say in modern times, has been wiped clean. You are free to abuse it as you will, but do not think I will stand there to take your blows. Every action you take, every word you speak, every thing you make, will pave the way to a new future. I bestow this honor upon you as a fellow king.. making us equal once more without the burdens of the past to tip the scales.
action;
Flop himself ontop of the couch, obviously. Gal will shortly hop up and lay in his lap, and he'll give the growing feline some idle pets. Ah, right. He should at least say something to her, even if he isn't really sure what. ]
Very well, Saber. If this is all you have to offer, then I... [ Wait, was that a yawn? Yes, it was. And in mere moments he's cuddling with the lion and snoring. ]
action;
[ Without further argument, she'll move back into the room in which she slept in. ]

[Video]
[ Yup, he's going to be getting a close up of the both of them. All the cuddles, man. ]
That's right, they weren't out when you last stopped by. A shame. I'll have to give you two a personal introduction some time.
