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

[codere]

That isn't a very nice thing to say, Archer. [ Don't worry, she'll scold him for it. ]

This is why you have no friends.

[swordboning]

And you have multitudes to brag about.

[codere]

I have a friend. [ A SINGLE FRIEND. ]

[swordboning]

[Wait for it.

The smug, shit eating grin.]

And I have two. You'll have to work a little harder at this, Rin.

[codere]

You do not have two friends.

[ Shit, Rin needs two more friends at least. ]

[swordboning]

Try Athena and Rei. If you pull out your fingers, you might find out that it adds up to two.

[codere]

You can't be friends with a Master. [ Or else they would be friends?! ]

It's against the rules.

[swordboning]

I don't remember anything like that being written down. Besides, she's not a Master anymore so it wouldn't apply to her.

[codere]

She was a Master at one point so it counts. [ It does, it does count. Don't argue it with her!! ]

So we both only have a single friend each.

[swordboning]

I'm not agreeing to your requirements so it's still two for me, one for you. Anyway, I told another girl to be your friend so you just have to go along with her and we'd be tied.

[codere]

You can't bully people into being my friend, Archer. [ A friendship has to be mutual and sadly Rin fails to think of others as her equal in most situations. ]

Naruto came back but... [ He doesn't remember her. How can they be friends then? ]

[swordboning]

No but I can bribe them.

[Y-e-p.]

Another idiot? You certainly like to surround yourself with them.

[Really, Archer is here too.]

[codere]

[ So was Shirou when he was around. ] Mm, he doesn't remember so I'm not going to bother with it a second time.

[ What a sad thing to say but Rin is too much of a realist to pursue things that will end with hurt feelings. ]

[swordboning]

That's oddly fatalistic. Well, I won't blame you but even relationships in real life tend to vanish like that.

[codere]

I don't recall much of my real life so it's rather pointless to tell me these things. [ Hmph. ]

Or did you forget I'm still having trouble with that?

[swordboning]

I would have told you either way so what I remember doesn't factor in. But now you know, as you've already indicated that you didn't.

[codere]

[ Shoving her mouth full of food in angry defiance. She hates it when she's wrong and doubly so when it's Archer that's right. ]

[swordboning]

Look, don't push yourself to have friends, even if I bother you about it. In the end, it's your life, you do what you want with it.

[codere]

[ Her mouth is full but her eyes are demanding he make up his mind about this crap instead of being so wishy-washy. Not even a day back and she's glaring at him. ]

[swordboning]

Though judging by your look right now, you like having someone who will push you around. Fine then.

[Totally taking advantage of her full mouth.]

[codere]

[ Throwing her chopsticks across the table at his stupid face.

Only so that she can use both of her hands to cover her face. IS SHE BLUSHING ABOUT THIS?? POSSIBLY?? ]

[swordboning]

[Cool men don't dodge chopsticks. They just get hit.

And smirk, lord. He didn't expect it to be that good.]

[codere]

[ Somehow she manages to swallow that mouthful but she doesn't scream. Nope, she's too embarrassed by what he said to even raise her voice a little. ]

You s-shouldn't talk about inappropriate things at supper.

[swordboning]

The only reason it was inappropriate is because you think of it like that. It makes me wonder where your mind is traveling.

[Oh, he knows exactly where it is. He is just being a bully now.]

[codere]

[ Meanwhile she's silently regretting that she threw her chopsticks. Now she has nothing to eat with. May as well pick at her food with her fingers and be gross as usual. ]

You said it, you pervert. Don't try to paint me in a lewd manner.
