☙AUDIO;

[ There's the distinct sound of cheap sheets grinding against each other, followed by a quiet moan. More ruffling of the sheets before a soft voice, perhaps made more feminine with the edge of sleepiness, calls out. ]

Hm? Did I fall asleep so easily?

Well, your stamina was understandably limited last night. [ Another's croibhristeoir speaks out, sounding just as close to the phone as the other. ]

My apologies, Lancer. I thought myself to be suitably fit for such strenuous activities, but..

It's fine. Even the best of us push ourselves a little too far now and then.

Ahhhhhhh.. Still, do you not find it in poor taste for me to succumb to sleep easily after? [ A tiny cough. ] Your care last night did my heart and body well, Lancer. You have my gratitude.

You don't sound well, Saber. I hope I didn't make anything worse.

Did I not just thank you? [ A reserved sigh follows her statement. ] I prefer the familiarity of a fellow knight above any other, Lancer. [ It sounds as though her voice is a bit more muffled as she continues. ] There is no other in this town who I would permit to lay their hands upon me.

I can't say I'm not honored you see things that way. Truthfully, I'm a little flattered you ended up looking for me in a situation like that.

You will be the first and only I come to for this, Lancer. You have my word as a knight.

[ There's the sound of a phone hitting the ground before it cuts the audio. ]

OOC: Both caliburns and croibhristeoir will be replying to every commenter in their own threads. YAY JOINT POSTS.

I must.

[ If she gets herself killed, then that will just be the fate given to her. Such things go unspoken, the expression on her face displaying her determination to protect.

That's all she was ever good at. Although it was proving to be more difficult without her trusted blade. ]

Would you rather I insult you with a simple request?

No, no. Have no doubt, this king will fulfill your request. So long as you agree to one condition.

[Of course. There's always a catch, isn't there? She must already be thinking of the horrible conditions he might ask of her.]

[ Oh her mind is already considering every little cruel thing he can ask of her. ]

Of course. I would not take anything from another without compensation.

[Incoming sadistic grin filled with horrible intentions, but then-]

You remember the fight we arranged, yes? There will be a slight change to it. Rather than fighting ourselves, we will fight those shadows. Not together, but competitively. The one to prove their worth by defeating the most shadows will be crowned victor, and be able to ask whatever they wish of the loser.

[ Actually surprised. ]

I accept. [ Does Gilgamesh not want to get kicked in the balls again or something? ]
