[backdated to Saturday afternoon]

☙ACTION;

Instead of staying in the hotel room today, Saber's out and about. In an outfit identical to the one Rin loaned her during the Fifth Holy Grail War: a blue and white school uniform. Someone can find her in any of the following places:

A: Staring down a claw crane game, her face smashed up right against the glass. Her gaze is pretty focused on a couple of items within the pile of toys.

B: Staring through the window of a bakery at an assortment of cakes. She seems to be lost in thought.

C: In the women's section of a clothing store. Currently? She's having one hell of a staring contest with a rack of bras. ]

Heeey.

[One creeper has located her staring. He'll just come right up and tap her on the shoulder.]

Saber? What are you doing, staring so intently?

[Issei has not yet been introduced to her thing for cute stuff.]

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Oh hello creeper. Turning around, she looks him over with a serious gaze. ]

Good day. [ Civil as always. ] Have you come here to purchase something as well?

[croibhristeoir]

Saber?

[Passing by was one Lancer, dressed like a normal human himself and adjusting his completely pointless glasses.]

What're you doing?

[ex_cashcow493]

[ FFSHFKSFL!!! INTERNAL KEYSMASH. She'll look over her shoulder at him with a sheepish expression. ]

I was thinking.. that it would be nice to win one of these for Shirou. [ It isn't a lie. She would love to win him a gift. ] I was contemplating which would be the most suitable for someone such as him. Perhaps as his friend, you could offer me some insight.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. I usually get him practical things like fruit when I need to take care of him. Did you have any in particular you were after?

[ex_cashcow493]

Staring at the items held within.

[ Guess he really does need glasses if he couldn't see her doing that. ]

[kindofademon.livejournal.com]

Nope, I'm good on the cake front. What about you? Looking for something?

[He has a little money to spend... Hm.]

[ex_cashcow493]

Practical things... so something of this sort would be unnecessary? I understand.

[ No need to point out which one she was considering then as she taps her cheek in thought. ]

Fruit.. Yes, I shall get him a surplus of food from the market. He is a growing boy and must go through an impressive amount when he bakes.

[croibhristeoir]

I did notice that, yes. What for?

[He'll just be looking over her shoulder to see what's in there, yep.]

[ex_cashcow493]

[ SHE HAS A TON OF MONEY FOR NOW... ]

I was considering a purchase or two for a gift. Normally I would just wave my hand and such things were taken care of by a servant, but I am without here.

[ex_cashcow493]

I just wished to see what was held within and how easy it would be to acquire them.

[ Boy better not be looking at all of those cute plushies. There might be a lion one tucked under a couple of other heavier ones, but why would he notice that? Has nothing to do with the lion cub she has at his hotel room, nor the various stuffed ones hidden not-so-well within her room. ]

B: Staring through the window of a bakery at an assortment of cakes. She seems to be lost in though

[greyerrant.livejournal.com]

Saber .....? [ The blinks, the coin finally dropping. ]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Well, those are my gifts. Yours may be of a different and more sentimental sort.

[kindofademon.livejournal.com]

Huh. If you're saying you can't afford them then I could probably get one.

[croibhristeoir]

...Hm.

[Even Lancer had caught on by now that hey, Saber might just have a thing for lions.]

How exactly does this work, Saber?

[ex_cashcow493]

Garviel.

[ Turning to face him. Maybe if she's lucky, he'll confuse her for that other Saber. ]

A pleasure to see you out and about. How have you been?

[ex_cashcow493]

Ah.

[ Such generosity u_u ]

Such things are not necessary. What sort of person would I be if I had you pay for a gift?

[ex_cashcow493]

I rather him have a practical gift he can use than one that would be neglected.

[ex_cashcow493]

I watched a child prior, but they had awful luck. You use this handle here [ pointing to the analog joystick ] and guide the crane to where you would like it. Then you push this button to have it descend. If you are skilled, it will pick up the item you aimed for.

Why would you wish to spend your time with such an item in the first place?

[kindofademon.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that'd be rude and kind of stupid. How about... you pay for the gift to this mystery person, and I buy you a cake for you?

[Jin happens to be in the area, and he stops in surprise when he sees a familiar face. Normally he'd just roll his eyes, maybe make a snide remark, and walk on, but he's feeling...nostalgic today.]

I never expected to see a side like this from you.

[It's spoken without the slightest trace of sarcasm. Instead, curiosity lingers in his voice.]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I'm not entirely sure. I'm not sure of many things when it comes to him.

[croibhristeoir]

[A shrug.]

Call it boredom.

[Or he felt awful for saying the wrong thing when she was wearing that skirt. Either or.]

[Whatever the reasoning, Lancer stepped forward and started to give the machine a try himself. But of course, he will be flat broke soon enough.]

[What was that you said about luck, Saber?]

[fatestayhome.livejournal.com]

...Saber, what are you doing?

[Well he knows exactly what she's doing...]
