0.0.1 -> Video;

[The video begins with a shot of an upper hallway in Sigyn Welcome Hall. There are a few mutters as the user gets the screen the way he wants it, and the view is momentarily turned to catch his face. He’s 30-something, but despite his rather cheerful expression there’s a worn, almost haggard look to him that makes him seem older.]

Is it always this well-decorated or is this city really holding celebrations during a war? Either way, it’s a mixed blessing to have family here.

[He makes a sound somewhere between a sigh and a laugh, and turns the video to show the door of room 302. Without knocking, he opens it to reveal Archer seated on the bed, coffee mug in one hand, book in the other. He turns to shoot a glare at the door when it opens, and when he sees Kiritsugu with the camera on, he holds his book up to shield himself then sighs.]

What are you doing?

It’s only proper to introduce ourselves, Shirou.

[8| The exasperation is palpable. He’d prefer not to be called that, but it’s too late now. He begins to argue, then stops.]

The point of that being...?

[Kiritsugu’s voice is amused and patient -- the sort of voice a teacher uses to explain rules to a child.]

Because it’s good to be polite to your neighbors.

Then tell the nice people your name.

[There’s a gentle laugh in response, and Kiritsugu turns the camera back to himself for a moment.]

I’m Kiritsugu Emiya, and this-- [the camera goes back to Archer] is my son. [a beat] ...The timelines are quite a bit off.

[Archer sips his coffee, then sets his book, pages down, on the bed. It’s inevitable now -- he’s stuck speaking to people on this thing. Fine. Be that way. He smiles pleasantly, in a strained sort of way]

You can call me Archer. Charmed, I’m sure.

There. That wasn’t so hard, was it?

[Nevermind that he’s parent-talking at someone the same physical age as him. It just comes naturally. Kiritsugu turns the camera to face him again, and gives a brief nod in place of a bow.]

It’s nice to meet you.

I'll be charitable and assume there was a point to all that.

Why? Are you going through a rebellious phase?

Feel free to call it that if you must.

[She actually yawned at the revelation. Looking up from her work, Samantha reached back to scratch her head and shrugged before hitting the audio feed.]

You get a little used to people being parents when they don't look it around here. Time's officially screwed up in this place.

Welcome to the circus.

Thank you.

It seems like you could "get used to" a lot of things here.

Yeah. There's a lot of strange things running around this place. After a while, you get to the point where nothing really seems strange that much anymore.

[Maybe this isn't be the first time for him to see weird family arrangements, but it would be for this world.]

Interesting family you two have.

He was much cuter as I remember him.

[In the background he gives an exasperated sigh.]

Or perhaps you're doting too much.

Yeah, the timelines can do that to you. [His irritation is short-lived, quickly replaced by amusement.] Your son's a real charmer, huh?

[And then he directs his attention to "Archer", pinged by the refusal of his apparent birth name.] Any reason for the codename?

I'm sure he has it in him to be nice if he wants to.

Don't we all. It doesn't tend to be worth the effort, though.

[He makes a bit of a face at that question before switching to his own bracelet.]

I'm living out my childhood dream of being a secret agent.

Secret agent, huh? "Archer" sounds more like a superhero to me.

[Just - feeling things out.]

[ Ah, so this was his father. The slight "bonding" of the two was welcoming, yet she envied it as well. But not to worry! She would cover that negative feeling up with some teasing of her own. ]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Emiya-san. Your son and I have a very strong bond. [ You can hear the smile in her voice. Too bad it's not a real, genuine one. ]

Is that so? It must be an interesting one.

[With a girl like Rin and the name "Archer", he can guess where this is going.]

His manners are the worst.

[ Is that--- Kiritsugu? Saber's face on the monitor in response is surprise, as it quietly melts towards anger. It was his son, not a servant, that he was talking to. Saber furrows her brows. ]

Kiritsugu!

[His good mood evaporates the instant he sees her face. With a glance towards Archer, he steps back into the hall before he responds.]

Saber.

[ She casts her eyes towards Archer for a split second, trying to decide whether or not he is an enemy before settling on the former master in front of her. ]

What is the meaning of this?

[ And by that, she means a lot of things. ]

Wow! It must be neat having your father be here with you!

[more to herself than anything]

It's nice to meet you, Emiya-san! You too, Archer-san!

It's proven to be disorienting, actually.

[It's true, and he doesn't quite care if Kiritsugu hears it. They both know being 20+ years and several planes of existence out of touch is weird.]

Nice to meet you?

Should I not be?
