the king should not be a person!

[knight_king]

I do not know what "PMS" stands for, but it is no laughing matter you inflicted this curse on me!

[she truly misses her holy sheath and the discomforts that she evaded while she ruled Britain.]

[imabarbarianrawr]

So what is it?

[knight_king]

I do not know. It sounds unpleasant.

[imabarbarianrawr]

It sounds like something you out on food.

[knight_king]

My mundane would not ruin my meals. [Or would she?] She knows how much I enjoy a well-made meal.

[dressofheaven]

[Judging from her nigh-hysterical laughter, it seems a certain Einzbern disagrees with that assessment.]

[imabarbarianrawr]

Then maybe it's a magical spell?

[knight_king]

[Fantastic. A sure way to boost her morale.]

[knight_king]

Are you finished, Ilyasviel?

[dressofheaven]

J-just a moment.

[She takes a few deep breaths, and her guffawing subsides.

Then she gives Saber one of her best "I know something you don't know" smiles.]

You really have no idea what's happening to you?

[knight_king]

That is just ridiculous. I am supposed to have magic resistance against spells and curses and yet I am as weak as normal [girl, she grimaces.] citizen in this heretical island.

[knight_king]

...

[If looks could kill, this glare is certainly murderous, but she will not attack a girl without her Servant.]

[knight_king]

Do you take me for a fool?

[A scoff. She doesn't know the details, but she has an inkling.]

I was married to a woman once.

[dressofheaven]

[Saber, Iri would be so mad at you.]

Oh. See, it's slightly less funny now that I know you do sort of know what's going on.

I was thinking you actually thought it was a real curse.

[knight_king]

[She'll apologize if she knew and feel horrible and bad about it.]

...I didn't say I knew.

[She has a general idea. She simply never cared to ask Guinevere about this. She figured out she'll handle herself. What a horrible husband.]

It is a curse! I am not supposed to be a person!

[dressofheaven]

[That'll go over real well. "Irisviel, I believe I may have decapitated your daughter. My sincerest apologies."]

Awwww, poor Saber. Looks like you'll have to learn how to live like an actual human being.

[Said the homunculus.]

[imabarbarianrawr]

So maybe it's not magic?

[He's not exactly the most helpful gnome around.]

[knight_king]

No, it is the consequence of a magic. But it is something that should not have happened.

[knight_king]

[She should add "If it helps you grieve, I also struck dead my own child prior to Kiritsugu's summon."]

Is that everything you have to say? If you come here to mock me, begone. I refuse to bear your taunting.

[imabarbarianrawr]

Then maybe it's really, really strong magic. Maybe your mun is one of those necromancer or coerced folks!

[dressofheaven]

[Really good with kids, aren't you Saber?]

Hey, it's not my decision to be here either, you know, it's my mun's. Complain to them. I'm just making the best of the situation.

[knight_king]

The mundane is only guilty of accepting to send me to this place. The real cause is a goddess.

[knight_king]

[She is! When they aren't actively trying to murder her and she's not on King Mode.]

...I suppose you are correct. My apologies for presuming.

[imabarbarianrawr]

A goddess! Is it an evil goddess?

[knight_king]

She's allegedly Greek. Evil alignment seems to suit that pantheon.

[dressofheaven]

Apology accepted.

[She pauses a few moments, then adds:]

You know, I still do kind of think it's funny, but... it is rather rotten of your mun to spring this on you.
