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

[swordboning]

Hearing both suggests something ominous. Like you want me to get in trouble in the game and you can swoop to my rescue.

[Not fighting her. Oh no, instead, he's still working on getting her hair brushed. Just from a different angle.]

[codere]

[ Lowering her head so it's a bit easier, she just rests there. ]

No, it's nothing along those lines. I think it's an experienced level, but I didn't want to try solo player on something of that caliber.

[swordboning]

Why don't we jump to the most difficult level and bring Saber along too? Between the three of us, we're fairly invulnerable.

[codere]

[ The day that Rin saves both Saber and Archer. The true knight out of the three. ]

All right. Between the three of us we should be able to get enough rewards for clearing it quickly.

[swordboning]

It's settled. Now...

[Getting up so he can lay Rin back down properly.]

[codere]

[ Oh right, he's forcing her to go to sleep. Pouting a bit, she moves back into position under the covers and rests there. ]

Geez, you're so persistent about me getting enough rest.

[swordboning]

Because you're spoiled enough as is. I need to be able to get you to do something.

[And this was a perfectly fine option.]

[codere]

Isn't a princess supposed to be spoiled? [ Grump grump right into her pillow. ]

[swordboning]

Which is why I'm not complaining too much.

[Taking a seat beside Rin on the side of the bed.]

[codere]

[ Turning to make sure she's facing him. ] Hey Archer?

Did you celebrate Christmas when you were alive?

[swordboning]

....I did.

[Just that. A simple answer.]

[codere]

Oh. [ She wasn't expecting that. ]

Okay.

I just wanted to know.

[swordboning]

[Leaning over to give her a kiss on the cheek.

And then shoving her over a bit.]

Make some room for me.

[codere]

Don't call me fat. [ Scooting over for him, but only enough so he'll have to still lay in close to her. ]

[swordboning]

I never said anything of the sort. But I suppose your chest and rear are bigger than your counterpart's.

[AKA: The other Rin. Undeniable fact. Said so casually while sliding under the covers.]

[codere]

Wha-? You can really compare us that way?

[ She's going to die of embarrassment now. ]

[swordboning]

I was simply pointing out the differences.

[codere]

It's probably because I'm more mature than her. If she was close to Miss Sakura and Emiya in age, then I'm likely older than her.

[ Of course she tries to rationalize his compliment. ]

[swordboning]

About a year older than Sakura. But that point is long gone. I doubt she could develop anymore, really. You have the advantage there.

[Said while all cuddled up beside her. Terrible.]

[codere]

[ She's going to die. ] B-But I'm still developing here, aren't I?

[swordboning]

Are you? If I had a year to judge, I'd be able to tell you. So, at the moment, it's up to you.

[codere]

I, I can't answer that right now when I should be sleeping!

[ There's his answer. ]

[swordboning]

Then I'll make a suggestion. Go to sleep.

[It's fine, see. He puts an arm around her.]

You'll be safe tonight.

[Just like any other night, really. NOT THE POINT THOUGH.]

[codere]

[ He's really going to do this to her, isn't he? She huffs up a bit, but settles in all the same. Their nights like this help her with the sleep and as long as she doesn't turn too much, she stays asleep. If he's clever, he'll remove the CereVice she keeps under her pillow and place it out of her reach as well. ]
