[THIS SPACE FOR RENT]

[hesitates before he lifts a hand to run it lightly over her hair]

You and Saber of anyone here... together you'll be able to figure out what to do. I have faith in that.

[ wat is that you are doing ]

. . . mm. It'll work out.

[nods, smiling slightly as he lowers his hand]

[ hrf, right! straightens up a bit ]

This is a whole different set up anyway! It's not just a one shot deal.

It's not. Do you know if Saber intends to move from your apartment still?

. . . . . . .

[ oh. ]

I . . . haven't asked.

... We spoke of it very briefly when she first mentioned it. I don't think she was eager to leave.

I hope she'll stay, honestly.

You should tell her that.

I didn't know she was considering leaving, though I guess that would only be natural . . .

...

Little here is natural to the world we came from. It would not be the first time a servant has lived apart from their master here.

. . .

I think she counts you as a friend as well, Rin. It's not beyond reason for you to wish to stay together.

[ inhale, exhale, sigh. ]

Talking with Saber is a lot harder than talking to Archer. You probably don't think so because there's something similar . . . but that's true. I can't just shrink back anyway. Mm.

She and I understand one another well for the most part, but that doesn't mean it is easy for us to talk about things sometimes.

Both the good upfront type of person though, right?

As much as possible, yes.

[ s. . . sigh ]

Yes.

But that doesn't mean we won't still hold things back if we think it will hurt the other person. Being selfish is not something either of us are familiar with.

Be more selfish. I'm a pretty selfish person, you know. And sometimes selfish is the only right way to be.

[chuckles]

I'll keep it in mind, but... I was hoping it would help you convince her to stay if it's what she wants.

. . .

I guess I should be selfish about that too.

It's more allowing her to be selfish, I think, if she wants it. To be able to go after what you want without reservation is an admirable trait.

If she wants it . . .

... She should know that wanting it was acceptable at least.
