So no one knows what happened that weekend? Seriously? I had the strangest feeling that-... eh, never mind.

[Lancer waved a hand dismissively; his other arm seemed to be holding a familiar Cubone. He knew by now that if somebody's Pokemon was wandering around, that person probably left. Therefore, when Caliburn had basically attached itself to him last week, he knew Saber was more than likely gone. But he kept his mouth shut about it--the kid had already lost Kiritsugu, so this was probably just going to make things worse without the former Servant's lack of tact.]

Guess it doesn't matter. I've had hangovers ending in more than just a lost couple days--still, does that kind of thing happen often around here? Wouldn't put it past a place like this to screw with us like that just for the hell of it.

Either way, Connla and I are probably leaving Cherrygrove soon. Hell if I want to stick around when Gilgamesh is probably dying to put a knife in my back. Kid, where are you and Rin now?

Azalea Town, yep. Your starter should carry you through that battle.

I don't know. The only Pokémon of Saber's I knew the name of is Avalon...and he's with me.

Heh. I sure as hell didn't plan on losing.

Tch...you heard from her at all lately?

No. Between that and the fact that we've each gotten one of her Pokémon, it's pretty clear what happened to her.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

[He glanced over at something offscreen, for a moment looking strangely uneasy. ...no, he was just being foolish. Worrying about something that might happen wasn't like him, and Lancer knew it.]

It's starting to sound like a lot of people have been disappearing lately.

I noticed, too. I wish I knew what it meant.

I can't even guess. All I know is that there's no way I'm going anywhere.

I don't plan to, either. I'm not leaving this place without Tohsaka.

Heh. I'm not leaving, period. Think I'll enjoy living while I can still do it, Servant or otherwise.

I know we'll be leaving eventually, because Tohsaka has her heart set on studying in London. And I plan to go with her. But if I get the chance to go home alone, I'm going to pass it up.

Even if I wasn't supposed to be dead, there's no way I'm leaving here on my own.

Because of Connla, right?

...Yeah. [An awkward smile crossed Lancer's face, and he might just have looked faintly embarrassed.]

I screwed things up pretty badly the first time I met him, so...guess I'll see if I can make up for that now.

Good luck. You deserve it.

Y...yeah, whatever.

[Definitely embarrassed. Definitely doing a bad job of hiding it.]

Maybe I'll actually be lucky for a change and Emer will show up. Though I can't imagine that'd end in anything but her throwing a fit over how ridiculous the whole place seems.

She'd get used to it eventually. We all did, after all.

...Kid, I want you to imagine Rin about ten times worse and more than willing to stab anyone that pissed her off.

That's what I married. [See this smirk? He's pretty darn proud of that.]

She'd get used to it, but it'd be damn messy.

Uh... Then it's a good thing that weapons are revoked...?

...

At least she'd kill somebody quickly if she had a sword.

[what is associating with normal girls, even.]

Well, she'd lose some of her strength here, wouldn't she?

We'd better hope she would. Because otherwise she could probably kick my ass, never mind Gilgamesh.

[Shirou can't even make the obvious joke here, because of who his girlfriend is.]

...Yeah, she definitely would if that's the case.

[itt: everyone is whipped.]

You have no idea.

Hell, she probably owes me a punch to the face just because I died before she did.

At least it's only a punch?

...I've been punched in the face by a lot of people.

I have absolutely no shame in telling you that my wife might have punched harder than about half the people I fought when I was alive.
