[The audio clicks on with the groan of someone waking up. That someone is evidently Saber, judging by the tired voice that speaks next.] Where am I...?

Oh, you're up? [Ryuunosuke sounds chipper as usual.] That's good! I wasn't sure how bad you were last night.

[A little hesitantly.] Ryuunosuke? Why are you here?

I think a better question is why you got knocked out by Shadows last night and I had to bring you somewhere else before anything bad happened. You should be more careful~ What if somebody who didn't like you found you like that?

I see. Then I should thank you.

Aww, don't worry about that. It was my pleasure, really. [Click.]

[Responses will come from both Ryuunosuke and Saber.]

What.

[First Sola, now this. Great.]

[voice forever because he likes hiding where they are, even though it's perfectly reasonable]

[kindofademon.livejournal.com]

I figured you'd say hi.

[video forever because i mad]

[croibhristeoir]

What.

Are you doing.

With Saber.

[kindofademon.livejournal.com]

Nothing~ Why do you ask?

[croibhristeoir]

You know exactly why I ask. Is she alright?

[kindofademon.livejournal.com]

Kind of bruised from what I saw, but she'll be fine. Nothing she won't get better from.

[croibhristeoir]

[YEAH SORRY STILL NOT COOL WITH YOU.]

And I'm to assume you simply helped her with no ulterior motive.

[kindofademon.livejournal.com]

It'd be nice if you assumed that, considering that it's true.

[croibhristeoir]

I have no reason to believe such a thing.

[WHAT]

[IS]

[YOUR]

[BETTER TROLL THAN KOTOMINE]

Aren't you supposed to be big on the 'helping others is its own reward' thing? And I like her.

[Killing her while she was unconscious would have been no fun at all.]

[croibhristeoir]

Of course I am.

Those who carelessly murder innocents, on the other hand, usually aren't.

[kindofademon.livejournal.com]

You just really don't like me much. You always assume the worst of me!

[croibhristeoir]

I never expected a murderer to be so friendly.

So I can only assume you're up to something.

Lancer?

[ She sounds as though she's a child who knows they've been naughty, her tone laced thick with her guilt. ]

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

Saber...

[He didn't sound angry, not at her. Just upset and confused, with a clearly worried look on his face.]

Are you injured?

[voice]

[ex_cashcow493]

My head aches.

And it's dark.

[voice]

[croibhristeoir]

Is there anything I can do? Why didn't you tell me you were going out last night--you know I would gladly have fought with you.

[voice] and don't you mean video guuurl

[ex_cashcow493]

You did not seem up to it.

[ And she wanted to relieve the stress of yet another person from that war coming in. A person who made Lancer react the way he did the night she showed up. ]

I can fight well enough on my own.

[video] maybe...>3>

[croibhristeoir]

I know that you can. I've never once doubted your skill in combat.

Do you believe I would have allowed anything, even Sola, to ever distract me from fighting?

[voice] I'M JUST TEASING BRAH....

[ex_cashcow493]

Yes.

[video] oh you <3

[croibhristeoir]

...

[He tried not to show it, but that felt like a slap in the face.]

...you would truly believe that anything would keep me from focusing on what I need to do?

[voice]

[ex_cashcow493]

You were not yourself.

[ Says the king who hid herself in a bathroom for an entire eve. ]

[voice]

[croibhristeoir]

You were hurt because I could not have been fighting at your side. ...for that failure, I can only give my sincere apologies.

[voice]

[ex_cashcow493]

I was hurt because I had been a fool.

[voice]

[croibhristeoir]

You're blaming yourself for this, when I was too distracted to have been by your side? I don't understand.
