Why do I have to be the one to break it to you? Sending me to a fairy-tale game to help fight evil is just going to embarrass the both of us, lady. Everyone'll get the wrong impression, and the next thing you know, they're expecting me to be some kind of legendary hero. Jeez, you know that's not how it works: I'm just a guy who plays dirty to win a fight! That's more or less the opposite of a hero, isn't it?
Yeah, I thought so. And the Disney jokes are getting old, too. Sure, I know I'm a fox. Who wouldn't want me? But you shouldn't take it literally.

Plays dirty, huh?

Good thing I am.

Unless you're scared.

[ He doesn't get to "about it," because he abruptly lashes out with one foot to try to kick her in the kneecap, and if that has any effect he'll proceed to hook his bow around her neck and try to strangle her with the string. ]

It must be because someone else in my canon got the fluffy fox tail. What a tragedy!

[ For a moment he looks almost a little sad! Then it's gone. ]
So how many winners have you met who didn't ever cheat? Be honest! Since you're not a cheater.

Are you incapable of engaging in a fair fight, Archer?
no subject
...incapable? Nah. I mean, my Master made me, and I managed it all right. I just lost. That's how it always works out.
no subject
You would rather have victory with dishonor than a fair defeat? Are you saying you would be satisfied with that triumph? Perhaps you need to practice in order to engage an opponent and win without any sleight of hand.
no subject
That ought to tell you well enough, but yeah. Who the hell cares about a fair defeat? Other than my old fart of a Master. Me? I want some victory.
no subject
[ She'll do that later. ]
I do as well. A victory claimed by trickery is a betrayal of the self. Are you certain you will not regret it?
no subject
[ He passes it off with a bored shrug, but he doesn't let Saber meet his eyes as he says it. ]
...well...
[ As for the other matter. ]
Maybe the Moon Cell's different. Or maybe the old man had some really weird habits.
no subject
[ She regards him closely. She might not be an expert on people's feelings, or so she believed, but she has noticed that he hasn't met her gaze.
She knows a thing or two about low confidence. She suffered that in front of Rider in the Fourth Grail War. ]
Answer me this: how come can't you speak those words proudly with your head high?
[ A question to mull over. ]
So these "furries" are uncommon?
no subject
[ Someone's never had the pleasure of watching a Disney movie. Go wild with this free and naive mind. ]

Despite all of the Archer/Protagchan icons. The mun is just biased for Archer.] I'm glad you realize that.But without the Holy Grail War there, we could get to know each other better. [ A nod to reaffirm this. ] Could you further explain the difference between a regular fox and the hot kind?
no subject
[ Pause. ]
For someone who's kind of a loser about things like honor and fair fights. I have no idea how you guys got so far. Well...I guess you're not bad in a fight, though. Otherwise, it'd suck for me getting defeated by you two.
[ He frowns awkwardly. It's one thing to troll a Saber he doesn't even know, but this... ]
Do you really think getting to know each other better's such a good idea? We might have to fight again at any time, you know. Them's the breaks.
...about the foxes. I don't think I'm gonna explain that. Why ruin the wonder?
no subject
[ Not particularly, but it appears that the trust of an enemy Servant isn't easily earned. Even though they could unite together, the likelihood of Saber working alongside any other Servant is unlikely. Especially when her antics towards the one who shares her face have been unfriendly at best. ]
I have no intention of continuing that war here. [ After all, she finished it so bringing it up again after all's been said and done is kind of insulting. Not that she blames him; how could he know after all? ] If we did have to fight again, wouldn't it be better to do it on friendlier terms than deny ourselves the opportunity of companionship?
[ Geez talking like that. Saber's really going to let her have it. ]
I think I understand about the fox remark. That's your costume for the masquerade isn't it? [ Giggling. ] It's strange for a mouse to hunt down a fox instead of it being the other way, but I'll do it just this once.
no subject
Masquerade?
Yeah. Right. That's what I meant. I'll be the hottest fox there.
no subject
Yes, the masquerade. [ The hottest fox? ] You're probably going to be the only fox there.
[ It's not exactly a majestic creature.
At least compared to a mouse alright.]old old old
