...you've reached Archer. Leave a message and if it's suitable, I'll get back to you.

I told you it's because you seem to be enjoying all the hard work yourself... it'd be a crime to steal the glory from you.

[swordboning]

Surprising how you talk about glory here but probably brag to your friends about how you have a personal slave. Should I even try to check?

[codere]

I don't have any friends. [ Honestly blurting that out. ]

Plus I do have a personal slave.

It's Emiya.

[swordboning]

Only for a short while. Keep him any longer and Sakura will start to get angry.

[Which should never happen.]

And why do you say you don't have friends?

[codere]

Mm because it's true. I had a Servant in the Holy Grail War and I met someone there, the person who was your Master, but she's dead? I'm not entirely sure where she is. I promised to look for her, but...

[ Pulling her knees up to her chest, she neglects her ladylike posture once again. At least right now she's wearing pants. ]

Anyway I don't have any friends. I'm used to being admired and that's fine. It suits me and my needs well.

[swordboning]

...that doesn't suit my needs at all.

[Having a friendless master would be awful. It's probably how Saber felt in a way. His younger self didn't have anyone to really fall back on.]

[codere]

What's this about your needs? [ Leaning her head back to stare towards the ceiling instead of at him, she tries to mentally distance her from the conversation. ]

Isn't it my social life, not your own? Why does it matter?

[swordboning]

If I told you it was difficult to explain? What would you say then?

[Getting into these situations...]

[codere]

I'd say explain it to me, Archer, because if it's important to you, then it has to be equally important to your Master.

[ This rare serious mood..! ]

[swordboning]

...fine. It's a friend's duty to not only help and support their friend but to tell them where they're going wrong. If you lack one, that's problematic for me.

But seeing as I already do that, what would be the harm in calling you my friend?

[codere]

Because I actually like you, Archer. [ Enjoy the nice remark, it won't last for long. ]

Which is why you can't be a friend of mine. I hate my friends.

[swordboning]

You're saying you hated the person that was my former master, in your opinion.

Why don't we work on turning that around?

[codere]

[ Sighing dramatically as she flops halfway off the couch in defiance!! ]

I'll get a stupid friend then!

[swordboning]

....what kind of monster have I created?

[codere]

A friendly one! [ Duh?? ]

I'll get a friend and invite them over so that you can take care of us both.

[swordboning]

I'm going up to the roof to keep watch now. Remember the deal we made.

[Mostly, he wants to leave so he doesn't die of grossness. He doesn't want to host any friends but somehow, he's going to be forced into it. No, not somehow. It's Rin, that's the reason.]

[codere]

Yes, I'll remember it kindly. If I get a friend, I don't have to do any chores.

[ That... wasn't the deal. ]

[swordboning]

That wasn't it and you know it.

[Said while fading away!!!!!]

[codere]

[ Geez, what a troublesome Servant. Once he fades away, she'll straighten back up on the couch and at least lounge around like a little lady. ]
