[The video feed turns on to show a face that may be familiar to some. However, despite the similarities, this face has a more playful and satisfied expression.]

I see! So this is how it works! [The girl clad in red's voice high-pitched voice declares with triumph.] Such remarkable technology... I must compliment the craftmanship of this bracelet. Though rather dull in color and design compared to someone as vibrant as I, the innovation of how it allows long distance communication amongst one another is simple beautiful.

[Oh right. Introductions. Ahem!]

You may call me Saber. Those responsible for summoning me here have made the greatest choice if they wished for prosperity. After all, I am a great architect, painter, musician, and fashionista... With my talent, I shall raise this land to surpass the glory of Mount Olympus itself! I will not ask how privileged the lot of you feel for having me as an aid. After all, 'tis not as if I had any other pressing matters to attend to where I hailed from.

Now then! While I do believe I understand the basics, I am curious to know if any further details had been acquired. If you cannot provide me with that, a self-introduction would suffice as well! Umu... After all, we are now part of the same auxilia, and should not be strangers to one another. Come now; do not be shy.

[Saber gives a sagely nod.]

Umu. I know not of the workings of your world, but where I have last been, I and other spirits of legend had been summoned to act as the sword and shield for those who desire possession of the Holy Grail.

[Seems like she has found a bro for life.]

Then I shall strive to bring prosperity back into this world posthaste so I may do so! [Mumble:] I dislike to admit it, but I am low on funds to build a studio and forge...

[AND THEN IT'S BACK TO HAVING NO INDOOR VOICE:]

Therefore, my first agenda shall be to seek employment at the nearby theater, and gain rightful fame and fortune by conquering the stage with my insuperable showmanship!

Ooh, I look forward to it, Saber! Excusing the time in the Throne, it has been a very long time since I have been to the theatre.

[it's a pretty heavy story bereft as it may be; it stirs up a few old emotions and the memory of a fallen kingdom he was once foolish enough to call his own, a purpose he thought he acquired for himself, and to hear this woman speak of what was undoubtedly sad memories with such strength... if nothing else, N can see that her love for her empire and for her fated companion are resolute.]

I see... I hope it was not painful to recall such memories. However, to hear you speak of your past with such honesty and conviction is very inspiring. I...am starting to see just what kind of ruler you were.

[there's something indeed hopeful in his tone, meaning his statement wasn't meant with nothing but esteem. being able to face one's past like that...it's admirable. very admirable.]

Who knows, you might find one around here. Or you could start off small and then build it up.

[ ANGE DON'T ENCOURAGE OTHER PEOPLE TO JUMP OFF BUILDINGS okay no maybe she's partially joking but who knows with that deadpan tone of hers. ]

[Pretty much.]

Wh-Why must you sound like you perceive me as some sort of delusional maniac?! I speak no lies!

I assure you that it was a full-grown lion, with his booming roars and majestic mane! A beast I had successfully strangled with my own bare hands!

[... There is a long, awkward pause after that declaration, before she finally admits, rather flustered:]

... W-W-Well, I had managed to only choke it into unconsciousness, but the bones were much too hard!

[She is still kind of (unsure) about what this thing is, but he seems easy enough to get along with.]

'Sonic'... I see. I shall take the theory of coincidence, then. [Because if anything, it seems like the girl with her face is everything she isn't... which is to say, decent.]

About a grand total of four years! [Her grin is smug.] My Domus Aurea stretched for what your era's measurements call '300 acres'! The walls were gold, and the most beautiful of jewels adorned the ceilings! Doesn't it sound sublime?

Then it is best to believe it, young Shu. For disbelief shall not get you anywhere in this realm. Umu, though ignorance is hardly a sin, it is also frustrating.

I choose to not be specific, because what you choose to impart about yourself also speaks volumes of what kind of person you are. Besides, isn't specification too restricting. Umu, there is much beauty in freedom of abstractness.

[She gives a sagely nod at her own wisdom(?).]

[She smiles warmly. Aaaah, it feels nice to be praised and admired by others.]

Then I shall look forward to both opportunities.

Umu, I am the fifth emperor [not empress] of the Roman Empire.

[And that comment about her empire doesn't bother her one bit.]

Though I suppose many youths would not comprehend its glory, for it has been lost in time many centuries ago. [Yep.]

I think...

[He stops midway...looking for the courage to continue.]

I think, I might need some more time to think about it.

[He just nods.]

I want to know more about this place but because I'm ignorant it...frightens me. Sorry, I must sound stupid to you Saber.

[That is completely okay because you caught her interest with that sudden subject change.]

Wh-What... is this 'rah-meen' you speak of?

[Saber gives a smug smile as she lifts up the crimson sword (http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111012162658/typemoon/images/f/f9/AestusEstus.png) she had been holding off-screen. It's probably longer than her own height, but she carries it with ease.]

Impressive, is it not? Its name is Aestus Estus, the Flame of Origin. It is one of my finest creations, one that the master craftsman Daedalos himself would envy!

[And she appreciates that flattery! And luckily, her compassion is just as big as her ego.]

Natsuhi... Through my knowledge of your language, I believe that it is a beautiful name suited for a beautiful woman like yourself. Umu, I quite like it.

Hoooh? [Lancer's idea actually does ping something within Saber.] Actually, I have been speaking with one of the Rider class, and we saw it fit to arrange a banquet to celebrate this moment of peace between us Servants! In other words, I would very much love to hold this meeting... that is, over food, drink, and merriment!

[Yes, they should all become buddy-buddy and put those war shenanigans behind them while they're here! Party hard!]

Is that so? That's very interesting. Nothing like that happens where I'm from...

Only to unconsciousness, huh? Okay, that makes more sense then.

[ no, not it really doesn't. ]

Geez though, how do you have that much strength in that small body? Are you some kind of super hero?

Umu, I'll assure you that you shan't be disappointed. [She gives a hearty laugh.] It would seem we have a lot planned for this place! My heart is filled to the brim with the fires of excitement!

[He... makes note of that. However--]

I'm afraid I can understand even less, as I've never heard the name. [...] But if it was lost so long ago -- I don't understand, Lady Saber. You speak as though you were immortal.

[Or as though she's already dead, but that doesn't seem like the right thing to say.]

[Yes, she had given everything she could to her people to express love. Though her love was different from theirs, she nonetheless satisfied that she was able to express it. As for her Master... that person felt that they were doing something right with that sacrifice. To mourn would be to disrespect.

Saber gives a reassuring smile.]

... No offense had been taken, for obliviousness is not a sin. After all, none can blame you for not knowing my history.

The truth hurts, but denying it would be far more damaging. I am not ashamed of how I lived, nor do I have any regrets.

It would be my pleasure, Saber. I don't have a lot of sparring partners back home.

[Aaaand the gears in Saber's mind are turning. gj ange]

Now that sounds like an idea! Perhaps I shall do I search when I've settled...
