☙VIDEO;

[ Another accidental video huh? Seems to happen a lot to this girl as she sits at the small table in the hotel room in a different outfit than usual, one that makes her look a bit more feminine than usual. Lifting her fork to munch away on something, she doesn't seem to be paying much attention to anything.

Suddenly, there's a horse snorting right in her face.

Lifting her head up slowly, she gazes upon this fellow, blinking. Bringing up a free hand, she rubs one of her eyes, as if trying to dispel the illusion. Another huff from the horse's nostrils flips her bangs up away from her eyes momentarily, allowing her to realize that this was indeed real. ]

Why have you failed to call for my aid, Arturia?

... Lancer. [ Picking up the phone and realizing quickly it's already turned on. ] I request your help.

[croibhristeoir]

[...well, that was not exactly the standard way these worked as far as Lancer knew.]

I'm here. What is it?

[Not that he couldn't guess.]

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

[ EATING IS SERIOUS BUSINESS. THAT'S HOW. ]

There is a horse in your hotel room. [ Glancing upwards. ] With an unidentified rider.

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

[Sigh.]

I believe that's your Persona, actually. But very well, I'll be there shortly.

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

My Persona? Why has it decided to show itself to me now of all times then?

[ You know, all those times her life was in danger and nothing happened.... ]

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

I'm not really the right person to ask. I know just as much about how they work as anyone else--which, as you can imagine, is startlingly little.

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

Do you think I will need to acquire a stable for his steed?

[ Glancing suspiciously towards her Persona once more. ]

... hay must be costly in these modern times.

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

...You realize it should disappear shortly, right? After all, you've witnessed mine yourself.

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

R-right, I just thought since it appeared in such a casual manner that perhaps it would linger.

[ To scold her. A lot. ]

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

From the sound of it, he seems annoyed you hadn't awoken him yet.

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

You understand that I do not require the aid of a Persona, right?

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

...forgive me if this is a careless remark, but would you have been injured in such a way if you had the assistance of one?

I don't believe there's any shame in surviving with the help of whatever they might be exactly.

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Wow, that's kind of mean to say. Even if she did get injured, where was he then? ]

If they wished to offer me their aid, then that would have been a suitable time. Seeing as I can handle myself without them.. I see it fruitless to cater to such whims.

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

[he just worries and is a little stupid okay...]

Yes, perhaps you're right. It's hardly my place to inform you how to fight. [A sigh.] I apologize, that wasn't my intention.

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Deep down she does hold a sense of appreciation for his concern. ]

... yet, if it wishes to do battle, then perhaps I shall not be confined to this room for long.

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

I look forward to the time when I can stand beside you in combat once more. Though I would rather do so while knowing you weren't at risk of re-injuring yourself.

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

Continue at this pace and I may mistake you for my mother.

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

What--? Th-that's not what I-

[Flustered? Naaaah, he didn't get flustered.]

R-really, Saber, is concern for a fellow knight so unheard of?

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Boy, this king is laughing a lot. So much she has to hold her side, flinching every so often with her giggles. ]

Lancer, that look on your face..!

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

[Holy what the hell, Saber was laughing. Honestly laughing. Lancer would have noted how surreal that seemed if he wasn't trying to regain his composure.]

Wh-what about it?

[video]

[ex_cashcow493]

Nothing, Lancer. It is not anything at all, Lancer.

[ Another giggle before she finally ceases with it. ]

I would like it very much if you could return soon.

[video-->action]

[croibhristeoir]

[Siiiiigh.]

I'll be there momentarily.

[Which of course he was, walking in a few minutes later with his usual calm composure firmly back in place.]
