Third time's the charm

[afieldofswords]

Really. Really. We're doing this again? Throwing me in some kind of slapdash setting for your own amusement? And this time it's some kind of caricature of America...at least last time could've passed up as a vague vacation with the strange creatures.

I suppose you at least listened to me when I said I'd prefer being somewhere that would actually need someone who thought like I did. Then again, not sure if I should be happy about that...

Well, whatever. I'll just find a way to weather through this and...

Wait, what do you mean Rin and Lancer are already there?

Wha-? You know already? Geez, you never acted this clever around me before. Yes, he's a handful, but he takes good care of me. [ IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE. ] W-Well you're just bringing up things in public like this. People might get the wrong idea about me after all!

[afieldofswords]

I guessed. It's not exactly a complete Grail War, anyways. [Though he will be VERY unamused when he finds out about that part. Then he'll go right back to being amused and use it as snark reasoning.]

Oh? What's the right idea of you supposed to be then, Rin?

[gandere]

That I'm a perfect and honest girl, that's what! [ Completely dismissing the bit about the Grail War. ] Can't you say nice things about your Master?

[afieldofswords]

I could, but I don't think you're either of those things. I'd risk picking up a reputation as a liar. [What reputation, Archer. You're scraping the bottom of the troll barrel and know it.]

Of course, on the other hand, that doesn't mean I don't have nice things to say about you. I'll consider it sometime. [Beat.] It's good to see you again.

[gandere]

Ah, so is that how it's going to be? Then maybe I can run around telling people all of the juicy details I've picked up about you over the year. [ She's all smiles. ] So why don't you tell me something nice if you're capable of it.

And hm. I suppose it would be good to see you again after all of this time. There's no possible way we could be in the same house as well... so you could have a little break from me.

Post-UBW Archer, btw.

[afieldofswords]

[Implying he has any pride left to wound. Even then, though, that'd be troubling for him. He sighs.] Fine. You're a stubborn, capable magus; a good companion to work with and a more effective Master than I usually gave you credit for. Better?

[Shrug.] Suppose so. Then again, that means I'm going to have to acquaint myself with the locals. And other War participants, from the looks of it. [You can just hear the excitement in his voice.]
