I should mention, in case anyone met her - Caster, the fiancee of my brother, is no longer among us. Her phone number no longer works, so it isn't temporary death, but disappearance.

I should also mention, in case someone sees me with it and has a heart attack - I have a sword and I don't really know how to use it.

You would think that, wouldn't you.

Another Servant, I'd expect?

It's a city I live in, I think I deserve to know something. And as an example of your question, I seem to have ended up as vassal to Alexander the Great.

That would be her. I doubt many Casters have that particular description.

I'm told we have another in the city now.

That would be him. I haven't met him personally.

He doesn't seem the type to do so.

[And in a moment, a video-call goes through and there's a murderhound looking at Issei through the screen, expression relaxed.]

Much better. Not that I'm fond of introductions that aren't face-to-face, but this is almost as good. Anyway, like I said before, I'm Lancer. Hope you don't mind if I leave it at that for now. And you are?

[Issei bows his head briefly.]

Issei Ryudo. Monk in training. It's a pleasure to meet you.

[athngabla.livejournal.com]

Ditto, kid. Any friend of Diarmuid's a friend of mine.

[Just ignore the fact that, y'know. You actually knew Diarmuid before Lancer did. He sure is.]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I'm going to ignore what you just called me. Glad to hear it.

[Woosh the displeasure is going over his head, kid, wooooosh.]

...So, wait, Caster and your brother. Seriously?

[Video]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Seriously and truly.

Makes me wonder if that's a first for the war. Seems like a tragic tale on it's own, too.

[A shrug.]

[Video]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

...I had thought he just left, earlier. I didn't know there was a war on. It's far more likely that he died.

[Video]

[athngabla.livejournal.com]

I can't confirm or deny that, myself. For more reasons than just "I never fought 'im.", too.

[Video]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I don't like to think about him dying very much.

[Video]

[athngabla.livejournal.com]

Can't blame ya. Sorry I can't be of more help, I guess.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

That's alright. I understand.
