To understand why some people disappear and why others remain. If we're all salvaged pieces of data that's been fixed enough to exist in this colony, then why isn't that the case for everyone who arrives here?
[ It's a puzzle and she hates not having the answers. Her fingers flex a little as she tries to contain her anger about the situation, focusing more on her explanation. ] You're from the same world as Lancer, weren't you? And Saber.
At first I thought CERES was attacking me, but now it seems too sporadic. If they wanted to distract me, they would have removed my stronger allies which means there's something more stable in our code than there is in the code of others.
First, I doubt they're targeting you specifically in this manner. Second, I don't think its random or has much to do with coding. Perhaps when someone has completed an unsaid task, they're then taken away and stored in some environment for use later.
I won't deny that but until we understand the consequences, we have to stay our hand. It's crude and possibly cruel but perhaps we should be rescuing someone we don't care about first. That way, if something goes wrong, we can identify the problem and test it again until perfected. Then we can jump to the top of your list of priorities.
As if I wouldn't rescue everyone that's disappeared...
[ She's no hero, but it doesn't feel right saving one while leaving the others. ] There's... someone that's special to me. If that person shows up here, we have to save them above all else. I owe it to them so until that happens...
They saved me so it's only fair that I save them in return. I can't sit around being indebted to a person for all of my life so the sooner I pay it off, the less interest a favor like that would accumulate.
I'm just saying that dancing around saying her name when I already know who you're talking about is being about as pointlessly mysterious as me. Since when did you sink to that level?
It's just difficult to talk about Kishinami because...
[ She looks away sheepishly. ] It's not as if I like Kishinami, it's just that-! Kishinami knows my innermost secrets so if I don't save her, then she'll ruin my life by exposing them!
[ Nope, she's not going to fall for it. She's going to reel her anger in and nope! She's stomping her feet and throwing a tantrum right here, right now. ]
I told you it's fair! Equivalent exchange! I'm only trying to do what's right so quit staring at me that way!

If that's true, then I'd like to locate this environment and restore them.

[That was less a short no and more one where Archer definitely had questions in mind.]
Something still doesn't sit right with me.
no subject
I'll trust your judgement as my Servant.

I guess everyone else can wait.

Currently directed at Rin. The one that angers Rins from all universes.]

Yes, yes, I understand. You absolutely don't care about her in the slightest and it's all about making sure you don't have a debt.

[ Rin sighs, running a hand through her hair dismissively. ] I need your credits card anyway so it's not as if I could ditch you.
no subject
At least try to smile and enjoy yourself.

[ Waving that hand now dismissively towards him. ] What do you say to that?
no subject
[It totally looks like he's going to leave it right there.
Except he doesn't GASP.
Instead, he picks up Rin. In the 'carrying Rin style' that he does frequently. And yeah, heading out the door!]
no subject
NOT. ] H-Hey! Do you have to do this where everyone can see-?!
[ Normally she likes being the center of attention, but not like this. ]
