Then I need to really get in.

[swordboning]

Perhaps an AI can be addressed and asked where everything is stored.

I doubt it would be that simple but we need to formulate a plan for this either way. Even if we skip to the final stages of destruction, this will be required information.

[codere]

As much as I'd like it to be just the two of us, that seems impossible.
We'll need others.

I don't trust any of the others.

[swordboning]

I trust Simon Blackquill. He has a way of getting what he wants from people and there's something about him you'll like. Namely that he has his own honor and has given his life for someone while being endlessly ridiculed by society for a perceived fault.

That and he wants to speak with you either way, if he hasn't already.

[codere]

I've been in contact with him.
Doesn't mean I can trust him.

If you do, then I suppose that's relevant enough.

[swordboning]

He's already assisting me with my previous idea. There's something we both lack that he can make up for, which is good relations with a large number of people. You and I make enemies too easily due to our personality.

[codere]

I'm not going to kiss ass just to get what I want.
People should recognize I'm better than them and just accept it.

[swordboning]

Therein lies your problem.

For me, I'm too grating and quickly pick up on other's weaknesses, which is apparently a bad thing.

[codere]

It isn't *my* problem that people fail to recognize greatness.

[ Totally not her fault. ]

[swordboning]

Consider yourself lucky that I do.

[If he didn't, she'd probably beat him up.]

[codere]

I wouldn't have it any other way.
Do you think we could include Lancer ??

[ So it begins. ]

[swordboning]

We can include him only after I've confirmed his intentions.

[codere]

I trust him.
Isn't that enough ??

[swordboning]

Not for the time being. Seeing as neither of have have spoken to him, we have no idea what his memories may be so we have no way to judge him.

[codere]

You're saying that I can't trust him until we have both spoken to him ??
I can respect you in that choice.

[swordboning]

Look at the logic of this situation. I'm not the Archer that you knew. Therefore, he may not be the Lancer that either of us know.

[codere]

Then what kind of Lancer would he be ??

[swordboning]

There could be an infinite number of universes out there. Maybe he's a Lancer that won your Grail War. Or perhaps he won mine. Or perhaps he's the Irish Heroic Spirit but was summoned as a Caster or Berserker instead. Those are both valid classes for him.

[codere]

He seems to remember me well enough.

[swordboning]

He may be recalling my Master. Try not to get your hopes up.

[codere]

[ TOO LATE. ]

Then I should meet him in person.
Though he won't recognize me like this.

[swordboning]

[Sighing!!!]

I'll see you in two days.

[Not going back on his kidnapping word.]

[codere]

[ He just has a tendency to kidnap girls named Rin Tohsaka right?? ]

Hopefully sooner ♥

[swordboning]

One can only hope.

[It's an Archer trope.]

[codere]

Do you hope so as well ??
It'd be unfair of me to leave you wanting all this time.
