Could someone bring me my homework from school, please? I seem to have injured myself in the process of saving a child's life.

[He sounds tired, but not too upset.]

I can be found in my hotel room, 707 at the Bay View hotel.

Heh. Emiya, is this the first time you've heard of me missing a school day? I can think of no better reason for it. -Ah, that's Emiya Shirou, if it wasn't obvious, I would have switched to your first name long ago but I never really knew if that was too blatant a sign of my feelings. I suppose that's a little silly now that I've thrown myself into danger for you.

...Issei what.

[WHAT THE HECK ISSEI THIS IS EXACTLY WHY HE DOESN'T REALLY WANT TO LET YOU OFF ALONE.]

I... [He fidgets a little, turning red as the camera clicks on.] I think that it's been too long for me to keep hiding this. I was always hoping that you would realize on your own. That you paid enough attention to the little ways I acted around you and you would realize why I did everything I did. But maybe that isn't fair to you, and it's selfish of me to refuse to say this.

I'm in love with you.

[...crap.

He had a feeling that was the c- wait we're talking about Shirou so there's no way he had any way of knowing Issei's feelings until its too late.

Like right now.]

Issei... I...

You don't feel the same way. [Not a question. Not surprised. Just a statement - Issei already knew that his feelings were one-sided.]

[fatestayhome.livejournal.com]

...I'm sorry.

[There was only one phrase he could utter.]

[video]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

It's all right. I expected that.

I can bring your work by. [She won't comment on the rest.]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Thank you, sensei. I would hate to fall behind.

Video

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

And I would hate to let you. I assume the child is doing well?

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

He's fine. I gave him a stern talking-to about being out alone at midnight.

[croibhristeoir]

I suppose there's few preferable ways to get injured. I should congratulate you on doing something commendable.

...are you implying by that there's more than one Emiya? [This won't end well.] I hope the other isn't as foolish.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I'm glad to hear that from you.

[Nope, it won't.] That depends on your opinion of Emiya Kiritsugu, I suppose.

[croibhristeoir]

. . . What.

I'm sorry, I thought I just heard something completely ludicrous.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Huh? No, Shirou's father is named that. Emiya Kiritsugu is deceased in my time, and I never met him at home.

Video

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

And yourself? Have you had someone look at your injury?

Video

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I treated it with what we had in the nearest nurse's station. Other than that, no.

[croibhristeoir]

[That was an amazing coincidence. Two generations of Masters to the same Servant?]

[And Kiritsugu was that idiot's father?]

...I see.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I'm going to assume you met.

[video]

[fatestayhome.livejournal.com]

We're still friends, right?

[croibhristeoir]

I didn't learn his name until recently, but yes.

[video]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Of course we are. You can't get rid of me.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I'm also going to assume it went badly.

[croibhristeoir]

He was Saber's Master as well.

[She makes a tsking noise.]

Have it looked at properly or I will send someone to you. Or I will look at it when I drop off your work.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

That's a strange coincidence. It can't be in the blood, because Shirou was adopted.
