(Dear) mundane;

[unreachableutopia]

You and your friends should cease with your mockery. I neither possess a "collection of princesses" nor I seek to obtain one [ A collection of lions, on the other hand... ]. Helping distressed ladies because their princes are absent is an obligation I have as the King of Knights. It's only a coincidence they happen to be princesses or hold that title somewhat.

I feel that I am being slandered by your presumption, so stop. [ Obviously, she can't take a joke. ]

Oh. Should I...try and make my mun cut it out, Saber?

(Though you do know a lot of princesses...)

Shirou-

[ Don't say it like that! ]

[unreachableutopia]

C-Could you? I do not think he will listen, but if there is a small chance.

[onlypath]

Well, at the very least, he might say something to your mun directly but stop making it public like in my intro. [scratches back of head at mun shenanigans] It's a start.

[onlypath]

But, Saber? [hell he couldn't resist] Since I'm not sure I'll get a chance to ask in the game...

How did you manage to get to know so many princesses? [it's an honest question despite the mun's teasing about it]

[selfmadeprincess]

So how many princesses have you collected, er, I mean, helped?

[king_of_sindria]

There's no harm in a bit of flirtation. There are certainly worse things than having a bevy of Princesses about.

[unreachableutopia]

I have spoken and tried to assist a number of them. I will not reveal it because I mistrust of your intentions.

[unreachableutopia]

F-Flirtation?!

[Where do these people get these misunderstandings from?! She isn't even a human being.]

[unreachableutopia]

You are mistaken. I do not seek to appeal to them like that. I am being courteous with them because I follow the code of chivalry.

[unreachableutopia]

...Please. A start is better than nothing being done. Although my mundane is just as bad a he is.

[king_of_sindria]

Chivalry? What's chivalry?

[unreachableutopia]

Shirou? Um. [She looks unhappy by his question.] I did not do it on purpose. They are simply too many of them and it was a coincidence. The circumstances were different for each princess.

[One is her roommate.]

Does this answer your question?

[unreachableutopia]

It is a code of conduct that knights everywhere are expected to follow. As the King of Knights, I must set the example.

[onlypath]

I guess so... Maybe I'll just have to be careful if I meet all of them. I don't want my mun getting any crazy ideas or making fun of me too.

[silly Shirou. mun already does make fun of you]

[unreachableutopia]

That is good. Rin might be displeased if you aren't.

[mama_saber]

If your anything like me, I imagine there is only room for one princess in your life.

[king_of_sindria]

Set it for who, exactly?

[thiscloakisgreen]

So that infuriating mun was not merely jesting when he said that the King of Knights himself was actually a woman. *scowl* That mundane...his jests and jokes enfeeble the mind and add tally to his score of already immense idiocy. (such as giving me few avatars beyond the ones from the animated series you see before yourself)

But, more at the point at hand...

As a fellow king, I feel obliged to make my opinions known--as is rightful, truthfully--about the trial that is a princess. Perhaps it is just coincidence. But rescuing a princess, I shall broaden the term--any fair maiden. Do not cast such doubts away so easily, Saber. Such trivial mockery from your mun (and the common at large) should not waver you from such important tasks. Why do you let them get to you as such?

[unreachableutopia]

My people and all those who take up the oath as a knight.

[After all, she has decided to become similar to a timeless ideal.]

[unreachableutopia]

You are correct. That would be my wife, Lady Guinevere.

[Even if it was just a political marriage, she will always honor her word.]

[mama_saber]

[Not quite the answer she expected, but interesting nonetheless.]

Of course, but What of Irisviel?

[unreachableutopia]

You are incorrect. The king is the king; biological gender has nothing to do with me. Thus, you were not mistaken to believe I was not a woman. [What is a King? A miserable pile of ideals.]

That would never happen, I assure you. The situation is idle in that land and I have to focus on tasks that are at least recognizable as a knight. I am unable to turn down a maiden who is in trouble. That will be a serious violation to my code. However this slander that I have a "collection" is groundless and should stop for the sake of my good reputation.

[Shirou might stop cooking for her if Snow White does. She will never confess this is the source of her agitation.]

[king_of_sindria]

And what does this code consist of, exactly?

[unreachableutopia]

What about Irisviel? She is a lady that I honor and I have sworn to protect.

[Tilts head.]

Of course she is like a princess to me, but I am like a knight, not a prince to her.
