On a post at towerofanimus

[no_longer_a_king]

Now that you have what you consider a "joke post" out of your system, can we move on from that particular aspect of my past?

I do not know why you have fixated on this one particular part of what happened between Shirou and myself so much. Yes, it had its effect on me during that time, but there are so many other parts of it I would rather focus on. Unless some version of Shirou arrives in the Tower it should not cross my mind as often as you imply it does.

I should be searching for a way to save the worlds, not going so far as to ask the population of the tower for advice on such a trivial matter simply because you find it funny. The only solace I can take from such a thing is you realizing I would be firm about my anonymity and telling absolutely no one of it afterward. For that I thank you.

Contact the one who plays Lancer when you can. Lancer and I would have made much progress on our project of mapping out the Tower by now and it would be prudent to figure out how far along we are.

Yours,
Saber of White

Addendum: thank you for making it clear such feelings do not carry over to Archer.

[That kind of answer was something he'd expect from her, really, so at least there's a bit of comfort in knowing that she's not that changed yet.]

Maybe, but that doesn't hide the fact that you're hurting.

[no_longer_a_king]

[Ow. Right to the heart. Seriously, is the world out to punish her? She doesn't deserve for him to be kind to her after what she'd done to him.]

Whether or not I'm hurting is irrelevant.

[emptysword]

It isn't to me.

[he knows she's not going to tell him, she's stubborn like that, but... he just can't help it.]

[no_longer_a_king]

I know. [And she let's some of the heartache slip into her voice because.... well, she knew she'd never be able to keep her emotions under control around him.]

[emptysword]

[there's a sigh from him as he could feel her pain in a figurative sense, but what can he do? words are empty if he could not prove it.]

...If there's anything you need help with.

Feel free to ask, alright?

[no_longer_a_king]

I know.

[She knows. He would be willing to help her with anything should she ever ask, but this is not something he could help her with. How can she even hope to "fix" such a betrayal?]

Thank you.

[emptysword]

It's no problem at all.

[there's no reason in pushing it right now, so... yeah.]

Just stay safe, okay?
