[He'll allow minor allowances in private. Even if Rin is intentionally keeping her eye on him.]

[codere]

[ Dat EX+ Rank Ass. ]

Hey Archer? [ Pulling the sheet up closer to her mouth, she asks in a muffled voice: ]

Can you brush my hair?

[swordboning]

Where's your brush?

[Who knows where she tosses it after using it? Archer only cleans up so much after her.]

[codere]

[ She has a system, Archer. A very delicate system. ]

I think it's in the usual mess.

[swordboning]

Have I ever told you how incredibly helpful you are?

[Such a great Servant. A scholar and a gentleman. ...trying to sort through said mess.]

[codere]

I told you where it was. [ At least where she thinks it is. ]

You get to brush my hair. Why complain? Do you want me to take my request back?

[ Is she really threatening that? ]

[swordboning]

[Finally fishing out a brush. Two bucks says it's Saber's though.]

I doubt you would actually do that considering it would make things easier for me. Unless this is some type of unusual foreplay for you.

[codere]

[ They both have blonde hair. It's all right. ]

I thought brushing my hair might relax you, is all.

[swordboning]

Relax me, huh? And what about you?

[codere]

What about me? I'll roll around in bed for three hours and maybe pass out to make time go by quicker before getting up.

[swordboning]

And if I said I could have you sleeping in less than an hour?

[codere]

I'd say that's lewd. [ Of course she would, she's Rin. ]

[swordboning]

It has nothing to do with that. Now sit up so I can take care of you.

[codere]

[ Sitting upright in bed and pulling the pillow close to her chest. ]

Someday we should get Saber in here with us then I can brush her hair while you brush mine. It'd be cute.

[swordboning]

[All the tucking in effort is lost as he pulls Rin into his lap. Mostly so he can start working on her hair. No tugging allowed! He knows to take what he can in his hands and run the brush through it so it doesn't pull on the scalp.]

Another time, maybe.

[codere]

For now it can just be you and me.

Also you don't have to be so gentle. I've had my hair pulled in a lot of fist fights.

[swordboning]

Rin....

[He doesn't stop what he's doing.]

No matter what you've been through, I'm going to be the person who'll treat you properly. So I'll keep up what I'm doing.

[SO SUAVE]

[codere]

Archer... [ She can't deal with this and just faceplants into her pillow.

What a troublesome man he is!!! ]

[swordboning]

[Reaching between the pillow and her head just so he can put a hand on her forehead. Just to feel how warm it is.]

I can't do this properly if you don't sit up, Rin.

[codere]

I know. [ She's a bit warm, but that's because of all the blood that's rushed to her face. ]

It's just when you say embarrassing things like that, I want to hide my face!

[swordboning]

Would you like me to tell you a secret?

[codere]

You trust me enough to do something that vulnerable? O-Of course I want you to tell me!

[ Bouncing a little in excitement. ] Tell me, Archer.

[swordboning]

If you need to hide your face, I think any part of my upper body is big enough for that.

[While sickeningly gross, it's like he's welcoming her to do it in public too.]

[codere]

[ Now she's really embarrassed as she turns around to face him just enough to hide her face into his chest. What an uncomfortable position for them both. ]

I wasn't prepared for that, Archer!

[swordboning]

[Uncomfortable. Until he wraps his arms around her.

Definitely a smooth player. Almost like he expected this!]
