V I D E O ・ 001

[And now isn't this quite the sight to see? Caster's gaze peers silently into the odd screen for a long moment. It may seem as if those odd eyes are peering into your soul. Instead, however, he's simply trying to figure it out.]

What use is this... [One long nail taps the screen, scratching it slightly, and he frowns.]

Do I yet dream this? This pitiful dream. Ah-

[And he notices it's recording. Expressionlessly, he stares at the screen a little harder, before his voice rises darkly.]

Tell me, you on the other end of this strange device. Tell me! Who are you? What is it you want from me?

Indeed. It goes against everything they say about knights, doesn't it, Ryuunosuke? To strike down a person needlessly, without any sign of their threat, simply out of reckless assumption that they will some day perhaps cause some trouble... if you are going to do that, then you may as well turn your lance to all peoples of this world. For all people have the potential to be threats, here or elsewhere, and all people may be in the future.

I gave you a fair fight, did I not? That's more than some might think I should have.

And frankly, I think my assumption was a quite fair one. How many people did you both kill in Fuyuki, again? Surely more than I can count. And how many of them were civilians, completely unaware there was even a war going on in their own city? Why should I have stood by and allowed a known murderer to run unchecked in another city full of those unaware of what he would do to them?

And you--you are no hero, Servant Caster. Heroes, even those that aren't knights, should be devoted to the protection of others rather than such deplorable acts against those unaware.

You are why heroes exist. You are what people like me live to fight against. And I will do so even to my dying breath.

Do not think your manipulative words will change my mind.

[He pauses before turning to Caster.] Yeah, how many was that? I kind of wasn't keeping track and I've wondered a couple times.

[...that is a good question.]

Ah... I stopped counting after the twenty-fourth. But I believe it to be at least double that, possibly more.

[Yes, focus on the rhetorical question. Goddammit, you guys.]

All the more reason.

[Best priorities.]

But yeah, what he said. I was dead for about a week because of him.

And then you came back to life? Absolutely fascinating! Although that does make it seem as though your threats are empty, Lancer.

They're hardly empty if I act on them. What happens afterward is no responsibility of mine.

Can't keep me dead, though. Huh, I wonder what it'd be like to kill you, Lancer? It sounds like a lot of fun to even things up.

Ah, Lancer. Admit it. You just enjoy killing, don't you? There's no shame in it.

I have never fallen by an enemy's hand, Ryuunosuke. I invite you to try. [And he was sincere. Both times he'd died, it had not been by the blade of an adversary--as much as he wished that was the case.]

As for you, Caster? You're wrong. What I enjoy is protecting those who need it--if that should mean killing those who threaten others, so be it.

Keeping it in mind for a rainy day. No rush or anything, I'm not mad.

Spilling blood out of duty... how boring.

As to this... it will always be more entertaining if you do not know when the attack will come. Or if it will. After all, my master has said it himself. He is only wondering about the possibility.
