Okay, time to admit it. Who's 'Kanra' and why should I care?

[Lancer was on a couch in the Cherrygrove Pokemon Center, an egg sitting beside him. The Servant leaned forward with a mischievous smirk on his face, head resting on his hand.]

You know, Rin, if this is you there are better ways to get my attention. And assuming it isn't, I have to wonder who I've spoken to long enough to get them this interested with me. The alternative being whatever is in this egg will hatch and try to kill me, I think I'll work with the 'secret admirer' assumption for now.

A shame? I don't think it's a shame.

Settle down, kid. She's a little young for me no matter how you look at it.

Then what's with all the remarks like that?

What, I can't have a little fun? It's not as if there's much else to do right now except wait for Rider and Kiritsugu.

[That's right, Shirou. Lancer and your father are bffs. What do.]

Wait what.

I'm waiting for Rider and your father. Rider owes me a sparring match, and as for the latter of the two...

Well. You'd be surprised how well two people with a common enemy can get along. It looks like he hated my Master as much as I did.

I guess he fought Kotomine in the last War, huh?

More than that, apparently he killed him.

And where Kotomine was breathing until I stabbed him and set him on fire, that's a little strange.

...That's...the first I heard about that.

...what, Rin never told you? She was there too.

I go and get myself killed over her and she doesn't even think to mention it. Typical. [He gave a mockingly annoyed sigh, smirking.

No, not that. I know you killed Kotomine.

[Flatly:] Oh.

[Well that was boring. And here he thought he'd get a chance to brag about it.]

According to your father, he shot the bastard.

Where did the bullet go through?

That depends. Is 'I put a bullet in his face' supposed to be literal, or is there some human expression I'm missing?

Uh...no, that's gotta be literal.

There's your answer, then.

Weird. That should kill a person, but he obviously didn't die...

It's Kotomine we're talking about. The annoying ones never die easily.

Kiritsugu mentioned the Grail probably had a hand in it as well. Something about it being corrupted.

Oh. Yeah, I knew about that. After I beat Archer, Gilgamesh used Shinji as the new vessel for the Holy Grail. It...was the most disgusting thing I'd ever seen.

...you're implying that kid isn't usually disgusting?

He had a mound of flesh the size of a small island growing out of his body. And it was leaking black liquid.

...

Okay, that's pretty disgusting. [Can't argue that one.]

Sure it wasn't an improvement?

Actually, it was in a way. The whole experience scared him straight.

Huh. I guess that partially explains why he was so cooperative when I talked to him.

Other than the fact that he doesn't want me to punch him again.

Actually, Shinji here seems to have been taken from before that happened. If he'd shown up after the War ended, Shinji wouldn't be abusing his Pokémon.
