Chapter 05 ~ Video

[best-king.livejournal.com]

[ It had been just about a month since a certain golden haired asshole king had simply vanished into thin air, without any sort of notice. He had to assume those that knew of him thought him to be dead or worse. That was exactly his plan. Truth is he had been traveling the world this entire time, doing whatever the hell he pleased since he is the King of Heroes, after all. He had collected many things, which would hopefully prove useful during that accursed Dark Hour. Still, it was odd that he had no contact with anyone. Not even his most prized treasure. Truth be told, she was probably the only reason he bothered coming back. So you can imagine his surprise and amused reaction when he stumbles into his home late in the night, only to find a certain king cuddled up on his bed with a pair of lion cubs. So, she had been using his place in his absence. That was fine, because it provided the perfect opportunity for him to show off. And since this is so early in the morning, we'll assume that videos can be taken and sent to inboxes en masse, so everyone will be greeted to his return as soon as they check their phones. ]

[ For anyone who was here before his disappearance, or even later arrivals that may just know him, a certain golden haired individual will be interrupting your usual morning routine with his arrogant voice and all too charming looks. ]

Mongrels... It's been a while, hasn't it? I'm sure you've all missed being in the presence of your king, not that I can say the same about the lot of you.

[ No, seriously. Why does he even bother addressing them? It's not as if their even worthy of looking upon him. Still, things must be said. This is what kings do, is it not? ]

Upon my return, there are a few things I feel I need to make clear, since you seem incapable of remembering anything for longer than a goldfish. Everything of value in this world is mine, that goes without saying. It is I, and only I can truly determine something's value. You see this condo?

[ Yes, he is sweeping through his own condo, showing off the ridiculous contents that shouldn't even be able to fit. It's like his condo was a pocket space or something. You'll see mountains of useless shit that serves no purpose other than looking pretty and expensive, among piles of swords and closets full of the most crazy expensive clothes ever. ]

Everything is mine. Yes, even them.

[ The camera suddenly enters a first person view as it travels down a hallway, eventually entering a dark room that is only lit by the moonlight. The camera will slowly sweep over the bed, where one may find a caliburns outfitted in merely a large long-sleeved t-shirt, sleeping soundly between two rather large lion cubs. The look on her face would be enough to make the most manly men's hearts melt. ]

They are mine, and mine alone. Nobody can say otherwise. If any of you mongrels have a problem with that?

[ This would usually be the part where he says something about fighting and proving yourself and blahblahblahblahblah. But instead, they'll only get a close-up on his face. A face that just screams TROLLLLLL. ]

Too bad.

[ And just as suddenly as it had started, the video ends. ]

You know like half the town has seen her in less than that? Little late to brag.

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Do you really think that matters to me, mongrel? Nobody else can lay claim to her. She is rightfully mine.

[soulsborderline.livejournal.com]

Oh. You're back. Nice to see you're still a perverted jackass.

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's you. I suppose I'll take that as a compliment.

...Archer.

If your goal is to tempt me into killing you, you might just succeed.

[best-king.livejournal.com]

[ Excuse him while he laughs his ass off. ]

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Do you really think you could kill me, Lancer? I've fought children stronger than you.

[ Well, his kid is pretty strong. ]

[ What a strange dream. For a moment there, she thought she heard Archer's voice again. Curling up against the larger cub, she murmurs something in her sleep about food. ]

[ Well, now that he was done with his bragging rights, the question was what to do with the rest of the morning. He could easily wake her up. But he found it more proper to just watch her until she awakens. Because that isn't creepy at all, Gilgamesh. ]

*By the time this guy answers, he's sitting in the apartment kitchens with a delicious looking Italian breakfast, quite possibly positioned specifically to be in view. There's some suspicious red stains on his white hood, cape, shirt and gloves, but he doesn't seem to care too much.*

My my, and here I believed myself poor at sharing. And what are you going to do if we don't relinquish ownership of that which we value, hmm~?

[best-king.livejournal.com]

[ A casual shrug. Gilgamesh himself had just finished his own breakfast, which... probably couldn't be considered breakfast to most people but what do people expect from barbaric kings, really? He'll be pushing a plate piled high with bones to the side. ]

You act as if I haven't encountered that before. It's simple, really. People are always willing to part with things for the right price. Even if the price ends up being their lives.

I take it Saber doesn't know about this yet. It should be interesting when she wakes up.

[He should start a betting pool or something. Maybe sell tickets.]

[best-king.livejournal.com]

I'm sure she'll be perfectly fine when she hears what I have to say.

[Just try and bring down his good mood, Gil. Atsuro's best friend arrived, so he's just looking at the video with an amused look.

As well as expectancy over the predicted actions Saber might've taken. As well as her harem]

I...think she might argue otherwise.

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Not for very long.

[genius-idiot.livejournal.com]

...Who're you?

[best-king.livejournal.com]

[ Geez, does he really have to announce this every time? He's actually starting to get tired of it. Okay not really he could never do that. ]

...Just proving my point further.

Gilgamesh, King of Heroes. Owner of everything of value in the world. Ringing any bells, mongrel?

[go-go-lets-go.livejournal.com]

Hey, hey, I got one of those Persona things while you were gone!

[best-king.livejournal.com]

[ A very slow clap. ]

Congratulations. You finally possess something this king doesn't. Not that it really matters now. I've got enough weapons in my possession to take those vile creatures out by myself.

[video]

[greyerrant.livejournal.com]

Oh, you're back.

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Of course. I couldn't leave my most prized possession in the hands of mongrels for too long. They might dirty her.

[maguskiller.livejournal.com]

[Oh. He's back.]

[Kiritsugu doesn't like that.]

[best-king.livejournal.com]

[ Oh. Well, this is awkward. Well, not for him. But, you know.

Staring contest? ]

[stripedmoocher.livejournal.com]

Ah, I don't who you are but what kind of a King goes around claiming everything is his and belittling his subjects?

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Every king claims whatever they want or they are no king. And I do not belittle my subjects. It's laughable to think of any mongrels of this era as my subjects.

...

[He is resisting the urge to argue with him.]

...She's not yours.

[He's failing.]

[best-king.livejournal.com]

[ This is exactly what he was waiting for. Lets see how you respond to an eardrum shattering cackle, Shirou.]

Oh? So you still think she's yours, boy? What a joke.

[toomanyhyphens.livejournal.com]

...so you're back.

[Hopefully Saber won't tell him what she did. But just in case, she's going to be super polite. Although this solves a lot of her problems if Gilgamesh is going to claim Saber. Yes, yes, yes. Yes, maybe... maybe, without that witch involved-]

It seems you've been busy. Are you truly claiming this town as your own?

[best-king.livejournal.com]

[ Implying being super polite to Gilgamesh will accomplish anything other than polishing his already over-inflated ego. Oh well, at least she won't be on his kill list for now. ]

Ha. That would imply it had some sort of worth to begin with. The only thing of value here is myself and Saber.

[lol-waver.livejournal.com]

So you're back, hm?

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Of course. I can't leave my treasures alone for too long, lest they be stolen by some filthy mongrels.

[sapere-audea.livejournal.com]

I guess that's fair if you were there first, but Atsuro is mine, all right?

[He's entirely playing, thinking Gilgamesh is kidding. Poor, naive child.]

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Ha, you act as if I care about anyone other than her.

[royal-painxx.livejournal.com]

Glad to see you're well. [ ignoring everything else...because she can. ]

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Ah, Ishtar. I take it you're doing well, too?

[ He's still kind of amused by the whole beingnamedafterthestupidgoddessthatruinedhislife thing. ]
