[bows his head slightly in acknowledgement]

You are familiar with that war then?

[bejeweled]

[ SIGH ]

I am. I guess I shouldn't be surprised to see you here if this is the afterlife but . . . it's still a little shocking.

[freelancetogoodhome]

[looks away for a moment]

... I'm afraid I do not recognize you.

[bejeweled]

[ jerks a thumb towards Gilgamesh ]

Unfortunately I was that idiot's original master.

[freelancetogoodhome]

What?

[bejeweled]

Hard to believe?

[freelancetogoodhome]

But his master was the head of the Tosaka family -- Tokiomi.

[bejeweled]

[ . . . ah . . . ]

[bejeweled]

Well, I'm Tohsaka Rin, his — I'm his eldest daughter. So, that explains that, doesn't it.

[freelancetogoodhome]

... I suppose it must.

[bejeweled]

. . . So. Is your master here?

[freelancetogoodhome]

No, and may it stay that way. I will find another here.

[bejeweled]

Good, I don't want to have to deal with too many magi.

[freelancetogoodhome]

There are others here with similar abilities. Archer has taken a new master here as well.

[bejeweled]

[ FUCK INDEPENDENT ACTION IN THE EYE. ]

And you haven't yet?

[freelancetogoodhome]

Not yet, no.

[bejeweled]

You must be in a tough position then.

[ ... wait ]

. . . but you're — you're standing here?

[ reaches out to poke him to see if he's physically here. ]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[is pushed slightly]

As best I can determine, my... I am being supported by the power which brought us here for now. I do not know how long it will last though. Longer, I suspect, if I do not use the abilities of a Heroic Spirit, but not forever.

[bejeweled]

. . . Probably not . . .

[freelancetogoodhome]

[talking about one's life expectancy is kind of depressing]

... Have you been told about this place?

[bejeweled]

Just that we were summoned by some gods to do their work.

. . . must be a little frustrating for you.

[freelancetogoodhome]

... May I ask what you know of me?

[bejeweled]

Lancer from the fourth Holy Grail War . . . your master was Kayneth El-Melloi Archibald . . .

[ furrows her brows a little ]

You lost to Saber? I don't know the details of that part . . .

[freelancetogoodhome]

[tightens his jaw]

I did not lose to her. I was commanded to execute myself.

[bejeweled]
