Stare.

[Which is probably Tita's way of saying "this might as well happen."]

Tita the Second is strong now. Who are we fighting? I think it's somebody.

[saintgraphing]

[Tita is one of their weirder Riders, and they have an evil alternate version of female King Arthur who is also Santa.]

We're fighting for the restoration of humanity and to repair the Singularities.

You know, I never asked, but if you're Tita the Second, who was Tita the First?

[bigcore]

Tita is Tita. [By which I mean "nobody has any idea."] Yeah. But that means fighting lots of people. It's a revolving door. Spin, spin.

[She spins around to demonstrate.]

Right?

[saintgraphing]

[They should've expected that answer, honestly.]

Right. Which is why I'll be relying on you in the future more than ever.

[bigcore]

You need me... [She blinks her one eye slowly and smiles.] 'Kay. Being needed is nice. People talk to you. Hm... What else do I need to do? I get "go fight stuff."

1/2 i got carried away i'm sorry

[scourgingstars]

Class: Avenger Name: ??? ('Avenger of Insomnia') Alignment: Neutral Evil
Strength: A Endurance: EX
Agility: A+ Mana: B
Luck: E NP: EX
Traits: Humanoid, Male, Servant, King, Threat to Humanity

Noble Phantasm: Curse of Adagium [Scourge of the Stars]
Class: Anti-Populace

[A Noble Phantasm tailored for human destruction. After taking 'mortal' damage, Avenger shifts into a feral state blackened by the curses within his body to fight with barehanded strikes and weaponized dark energy, only reverting once his enemy is utterly destroyed.

[A Servant summoned to Chaldea from another universe. Though his red greatsword and affable demeanor give off the appearance of a Saber, his Noble Phantasm leaves no room for doubt.]

[Unlock at Bond Level 2]

[scourgingstars]

[Avenger was a difficult Servant to pin down. He followed orders, sure, but he also tended to lurk in the shadows in a way that almost put the Count to shame. Or he was cheating at cards with Moriarty. There appeared to be no in-between, either horrifying cryptid or eccentric charmer.]

[Fortunately, it was the latter Ritsuka now shoved a number of grails at, blinking yellow eyes a time or two in confusion that was only somewhat feigned.]

And what, my lady, is ever the occasion? Good heavens, are we that desperate? Don't tell me the rest of the team's ceased to pull their weight--or did the ill-tempered Caster finally quit from overwork?

[sorry, waver]

[saintgraphing]

If that were happening, you wouldn't exactly be the first Servant I'd turn to, you know.

[As powerful as Avenger is, he's not exactly what they would call 'great support'. Luckily, Waver can never escape his fate.]

[scourgingstars]

So it's definitely desperation, then. Or reckless foolishness. Do tell, what brought this on?

[fwahaha]

[One very long and pointed stare. Long being ultimately defined as mere seconds though because you know what Caster doesn't have a lot of?]

[TIME FOR YOUR BULLSHIT, RITSUKA.]

Why is it at every turn you seek to waste my time!? Are you planning on just standing there with that vacant look on your face, or do you actually have something to say?

[saintgraphing]

Do I need to spell everything out for you?

[They thought you were supposed to be the smart Gilgamesh. Smarter.]

These are for you.

[fwahaha]

[Gilgamesh looks less offended at this prospect. But he also doesn't look particularly touched by the gesture either.]

Tch. Do you think me insecure about the decrease in my power while in this form? [Because if this is pity...] There are others this would be more appropriate to present with than myself.

[saintgraphing]

The last thing I would call you is insecure.

[He might be the nicest Gilgamesh, but he's still Gilgamesh.]

You're a valuable member of the team, and I want to reward you for your hard work.

[1stknight]

...Ah?

Um, thank you, but isn't this effort better spent on others?

[saintgraphing]

Absolutely not. [They knew you would react like this, Bedi, but they have to be firm!] You're one of my best and most dependable Servants, Bedivere, and I want to reward you for all your hard work.

[1stknight]

But I- I don't really need this to be dependable, Master! My stats are pretty good already! Someone like Heracles might benefit from the extra stats more than I could.

[saintgraphing]

I don't want to give these to Heracles. I want to give these to you.

[They have to be incredibly direct or Bedivere will just keep grabbing for excuses.]

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ looks at the Grails

looks at them ]

This! Seems like an incredibly questionable idea?

[ Ritsuka she has made literally no secret of the fact that she's only here because if humanity is ending she wants a front-row seat ]

[saintgraphing]

I thought you'd say something like that. But they're still for you.

[sometimes people who hate the world are valid actually]

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ of course she's valid but ????? ]

Well, yes, because I'm not giving them back. But I think my point still stands?

[saintgraphing]

So I take it you like them? My work here is done.

[but you didn't explain anything??]

[commedia]

Hmmmmmmm?

[They.......................actually don't understand this. Like, sure, the attempt to win over Ritsuka and all, but even indulgence can go too far? Perhaps?]

...Are you sure, Master? For this humble priest? All for me? I admit, I do not understand one bit, not one bit...

[saintgraphing]

[Douman is a lot of things, but 'subtle' is not one of them. They know they're not exactly reformed, or well-intentioned. That's probably never going to change. But...]

You've been a valuable help to Chaldea, so I want to reward you for your work. What's hard to understand about that?

[Motivations aside, they are an incredibly useful Servant to have around, and it doesn't sit right with Ritsuka not to acknowledge that.]

[commedia]

Oh, this is all quite overwhelming. Such power...these rewards...why, it almost blinds my eyes! There are truly no words for my gratitude...

[And they attempt to bow, but its hard carrying all these grails, so a low nod will do.]

Nnnn. Are you sure the other servants won't object? There must be ones that work better than I...the last thing I want is to see others mistreat you for favoring a Servant like me.

[saintgraphing]

Some of them might complain, but they won't actually do anything.

[Such is the way of the tsundere - they'd probably complain just as much if they had given them the grails.]

Don't worry about me.
