[Servant and Servant! You've crossed paths before, but with your Masters - this time it's just the two Servants.]

[Assassin smiles as she draws a small, plain kife. You'd expect someone of her class to be a bit stealthier, but it seems that a straightforward approach is more your style.]


No Masters this time. This is what I wanted from the start. Now we can put aside all worries aside from fighting to the death.

I hope you're ready.

[Servant and Master! The Grail War is complex, especially during times as tumultuous as these, and planning ahead for the upcoming battles is very important.]

[You've got all kinds of important plans up your sleeve, but Assassin is just leaning against the wall, eyes closed. She doesn't seem to be listening very hard. If you try to get her attention...]


Why should all this matter to me, one way or the other?

If I encounter a Servant, I'll kill the Servant. That's all I need to know. The rest is your problem.

[Servant and non-Servant! It's dangerous to go out into the woods alone at night, you know. Or at least, that's what they said... and maybe this is why.]

[You just stumbled upon two people. Only one of them has a head.]

[Blood sprays in various directions, making an almost beautiful pattern along the ground. As the freshly-made corpse collapses, the pale woman turns slowly, giving you a bloodstained smile.]

[She doesn't say anything, but you're not here to make small talk, are you?]



-4-


Ooh! What about that one?

[Servant and anyone! Do you know Assassin? Maybe, maybe not - but this appears to be her... but her personality is completely different now.]

[SHIKI bounces through whatever local festival is going on, looking like she doesn't have a care in the world, dragging you along by the hand.]


Hey, have you ever tried this? I hear it's a local specialty, but I've never had any.

You could stand to smile more. Has anyone ever told you that?

[Assassin vs. knight! You probably had to goad her into this, but when your class specialty is killing Masters, it's easy to goad Signum into wanting to kill you.]

You're a strange one, for an Assassin. If I'd known a duel was what you wanted from the beginning, I'd have gladly obliged.
nightskysword: (serious business)

I suppose that's fair enough.

My Master would want me to talk you into surrendering. I take it we're both of the opinion that's not an option?
nightskysword: (solemn)

You'd get to fade away without violence, I suppose. I don't think my Master understands the point of this war...

Alternatively, we could work together, but you don't look like my type.
nightskysword: (attack)

Fair enough.

[Signum's sword is in her hand in a flash, and she's charging forward, not wanting to give the assassin the initiative.]
