Ahh, I must say the same to you as well! It is pleasing to know that there are others who enjoy making such a bold statement with their clothing.

[Saber notices this, and it displeases her. What happened to the confidence and sureness her master gained after all their battles...?]

It sounds as if it is quite the tale. You shall tell me of what has transpired, will you not?

Nesir Aeser | OC

[culbutiri]

For someone that was trained in stealth Nesir was definitely making herself heard, a slam of a door, the stomping of feet. She had no idea where she was, which wasn't actually a totally new experience. Just usually such happenings were accompanied with an incredibly bad head; a reminder of all the ale she had drank the night before.

But to wake up in this place, that was not the temple and nothing that she had seen before in her life... She scowled and stomped down the corridor looking for anyone who could tell him where she was.

"You! Where in the shadow gods realm do we even be?" Green eyes glinted angrily, she tried to sound demanding like a thwarted noble, but the spark of fear that had been rising since she had woken up betrayed her, making her sound more like a whiny kid.

[terreifying]

Weeeell, I'd just say I have a different taste. But heeee~ey, maybe we could teach each other a bit about "tastes".

[She hadn't expected to see him. Even knowing the reality of the Tower and how she'd already met others she knew from different worlds, Second Magic usage as Rin put it, she had not expected to see him. When Saber had last seen Shirou, he had lost his mind using Archer's arm, unable to finish the knight off. It had been a victory for her, but not one she savored, knowing that Sakura loved him so...]

Shirou.

[Her pale yellow eyes and black dress would be enough to let Shirou know which King of Knights he was dealing with, should he be from her world. If she was a gambling person, she would have placed her bets that he wasn't, but only his reaction to seeing her would speak the truth.]

[culbutiri]

[Nesir was doing her own exploration and slowly coming to the realisation that he was in way over her head. The world was destroyed? Just trying to wrap her head around that concept was making her brain hurt. The world couldn't be destroyed, not when she was still conscious and thinking.

She scowled at the other girl but quickly schooled her face; after all treating people with animosity in the temple had only led to trouble. This was a new place and she had no evidence that this girl was responsible for this... whatever it was. Kidnapping or rescue..] I do be seeing lots of girls. No cats though.

[doesnotgetit]

Of course I will. But um... I have to warn you. It's pretty weird, though. Even by our standards.

[houndmaster]

If they show an ounce of intelligence, then it wouldn't take them long to catch up to the knowledge you have.

[ She almost seems happy with this though. ] You're right. I wouldn't waste my time with any other Servant after all.

[puppy_lancer]

[He doesn't say anything. Instead, he just smiles and waits for her to make the contract.]

[awww_yeeeeeaaaah]

...M-My death?

[You maaaaaybe need to start explaining there, because uh.

Is this an Akashic record thing or something, he's so not getting it.]

[viditlibertas]

People die here, in cruel and unnatural ways, only to be brought back time after time. There is no release from this cycle, and they remember every detail. Our abductors would see that we remain this way indefinably.

[So yeah, that's why the hand-holdy thingy is kinda happening, ya dig?]

[awww_yeeeeeaaaah]

[That's fine, but he might still want to get out of the way because...after Kaito presses a couple of buttons, there is a bunch of energy gathering above the sharks.

...It maaaaay be prudent of Enoch to run away faster, actually.]

[awww_yeeeeeaaaah]

[...Okay wow, that wasn't what he was expecting at all.]

What? [Ugh, there's no time to freak out about this, though, especially if the others are here.]

Do you know if the others are here? [Nevermind how Saiduq apparently knows a lot about this place. Kaito kind of took it for granted that Saiduq just Knows Things, so that might be part of it, but still...]

[viditlibertas]

No. I have been alone for some time.

[Well, that answers that.]

There are many people here, but none from our path.

[awww_yeeeeeaaaah]

[Well, that warrants an outright stare from him.]

Wh...how? [He pauses to think about it.]

Is it that whole different timelines thing?

[viditlibertas]

There are many worlds, many universes, some that even I have never seen. Our captors claim that they have been 'saving' us from various cataclysms, but some people here were not even amid a situation like we were.

[He...really doesn't know if infodumping is calming him down, or if it's the Shining One himself, but there's less desperation in his posture now.]

[awww_yeeeeeaaaah]

[Maybe it's a bit of both or the fact that Kaito knows that Saiduq likes playing the part of Captain Exposition for some reason, if only because it's a familiar thing to do...

But now, he's...well. Angry.]

We...we didn't even need saving. This... [Man.

When is it ever not an awkward time to bring up "but u became the planet already tho"?]

[viditlibertas]

They are not being honest, and cannot be trusted. They feel they can give us a better life here, while dissecting and testing us. We cannot even reach them; this is something even outside of the Great Will or Polaris.

[And apparently that's the cue for Alcor to slowly come to...lean on(?) or against(?) Kaito. It's weird body language for sure, but whatever. He doesn't care.]

I can't even protect your shine, here...

[awww_yeeeeeaaaah]

[To his credit, he tries to calm down. He didn't lose his cool during Hell Week and he's certainly not going to lose it now, especially not when Saiduq, of all people, can't seem to keep his.

There was just so much riding on what he did and they all worked so hard and if that letter was true...]

...Don't worry. I'm not giving up yet.

[viditlibertas]

...

[On one hand, he wants to tell Kaito to preserve his strength and keep his head low. This isn't a battle Alcor thinks anyone can win, and he isn't willing to lose his most important person to a cycle of death and reanimation.

On the other hand, if Kaito was not strong of will, he wouldn't be the Shining One, would he? It's almost like pulling teeth to get the star to nod to Kaito's affirmation, but he can't bring himself to say any more.]

[awww_yeeeeeaaaah]

[Who knows? Besides, if nothing else, he's at least good at cheering up other people. That'd be a plus here at the very least.]

Okay. Are you all right? [Let's face it, Saiduq wasn't really acting like his usual self. He was being...a lot clingier, for one thing...]

[viditlibertas]

...I am fine.

[He's not even trying to lie.]

My time spent here has been...taxing, that is all.

[awww_yeeeeeaaaah]

[He...doesn't say anything, but the look on his face is enough to guess that he's not liking what happened to Saiduq, so he'll just...let him lean in and keep holding his hand, if that's what he wants.]

[warriorscribe]

*Get out of the way how...?

Figuring that energy gathering will do something, Enoch jumps, and the sharks veer up to catch him. He jumps again, off thin air, and lets himself fall, now out of the sharks' reach for...hopefully however long that energy thing takes.*
