possibly headed somewhere soon? or maybe not idk
I am neither childish, nor do I babble. Your clever attempts at wordplay fail to amuse, mongrel.
[...Saber's practically a saint for dealing with you, Gil. You're lucky she didn't cleave your head off while she was smiting metaphysical evil.]
Was she, though? The lonely king dying upon the lonely hill... [Grinning like a creeper, yep.] 'tis a shame I couldn't have partaken in such an agonizing view for myself. Alas, only the whims of ants might entertain me now.
[So you wait.]
Indeed. So I wait.

[And suddenly there's a too-tall Rider clapping him on the back.]
Good to see you again!!
every time I see your username around I laugh uncontrollably just thought you should know
...Gilgamesh does not look like he's rejoicing.]
All the graciousness of an ox, even without your little cart. Hmph.
[That's about as good of a greeting as you're getting, in case you were unsure.]
Courtesy of episode 5 when he runs over Berserker - it just felt right :)
[Either way, Iskandar doesn't look the least bit offended. On the contrary, he's laughing heartily.]
What use has a King for grace!? We need only strength and power - manly things!!
And you only speak of my chariot with such disdain because you do not possess one yourself! Such a chariot is fit only for a Rider - for ISKANDAR! KING OF CONQUERORS!!
no subject
Ahem. Yes, okay, hi Rider, how's tricks, could you please step directly out of my space you oversized mongrel, blah blah blah.]
I've no need for baskets on wheels. Divine presence itself carries me to far greater heights than any mortal craft could ever hope to achieve. [Sourly:] You are a conqueror no longer, besides, before the one who has conquered you.
no subject
HAHAHAA!! As if some puny basket could accommodate the great Iskandar!! You think too small, Goldie! It's just as well, I doubt your delicate hands could handle the reins at any rate - you'd probably prefer to have some servant pilot it for you than to have the strength yourself.
[Oh God...oooh Rider...please stop.]
I always a conqueror, Archer. Wherever I go, whatever state my soul is in, I shall always be Iskandar. Therefore, I shall always be King. KING OF CONQUERORS!!
[In case you forgot...]
no subject
Rider remains perhaps the only Spirit that can cull Gilgamesh with an ego equivalent to his own. That's impressive in itself, even he must take note.]
You seem... well-adjusted to this void. [All things considered, anyway.] Though these hands you'd so foolishly call delicate would gladly deliver a thousand triumphant blows all over again should you forget your manners, King of Conquerors. Mind yourself.
no subject
You know me well enough that I do not stand on ceremony for the sake of such things as 'manners' and 'politeness'. I do not fear a confrontation with you, Archer - rather, I welcome it! A clashing of blades between two kings - truly there is no more heavenly sound, is there?
And this time, Goldie, I will not have spent all my strength fighting Caster. You would be facing me at full strength - I'd be equally careful if I were you.
[It's all said in good fun - the typical, jovial Rider tone.]
no subject
An ant remains an ant, regardless of how it holds itself. Troublesome and tenacious, however, I will grant. For an insect.
[That was kind-of-sort-of like a compliment, coming from Gilgamesh. So is not immediately being smote on the spot for insolence, so take that with a grain of salt, Rider. Or an entire sack's worth.]
As stated before, I welcome your efforts, unsuccessful though they may prove.
no subject
[Almost - because he knows Archer by now and it takes quite a bit to put Rider out of his unnaturally good mood.]
We needn't make this reunion so hostile! What say we partake of fine wine like the kings we are?
no subject
...don't force that swill upon me again. Or pointlessly dreary discussion of kingly duty.
no subject
[Not that it could compare to Archer's, but no, he's not admitting that out loud.]
Besides, it was Saber who prompted that discussion, not I. I simply wanted to strategize and enjoy some drinking!
no subject
What other strategy could there have been, other than your unconditional surrender? You jest too much, King of Conquerors, even for a jester born.
no subject
BAHAHAHAAHAHAAAAAAAA!!
MY unconditional surrender? You got a little too close to the sun there, Goldie! Clearly the heat of your realm has addled your mind! The King of Conquerors does not surrender even in the face of certain death!! I enjoy everything up until my very last moment!!
no subject
[...well, were you expecting any other answer, Rider?]
And as it was you whose wings melted, it was you who flew too high.
no subject
My wings? Ha! the great Iskandar has no need of wings to fly!! Thunder and lightning serve as my wings! Thunder and lightning cannot melt!
[...metaphors. Rider doesn't...always get them...]
