After our parents died, I decided to do everything to make sure my brother and I would stay together. The wish... it was our last chance so we can be together, but also stay in the city with those two. [ ... ] So it doesn't matter now.
Jinnai isn't that bad of a guy. He's selfish, but... he was also trying to protect something that was important to him. In his eyes, I was intruding on that. If he pulled something like that a few weeks ago, I probably would have kicked the crap out of him.
[ he's not sure how to explain. all of the details leading up to what happened are a mess, and he isn't sure how to detangle it for himself, much less another person
so he just shrugs. ]
It's... have you ever made a decision that sucks, but it's something you have to hold to?
[ She focuses her eyes on a spot on the wall. There's a faraway look to her eyes and a faraway note to her voice, as if recalling a memory that's not really hers. ]
She's the type to believe in someone no matter what once she decides to put her trust in you. She's the type that foolishly runs about, trying to turn any hopeless situation around and pulling everyone in their vicinity into it.
[ he doesn't know how true it is, since he doesn't know the person in question and most likely never will. but he does know that sometimes you do like someone more than they like you. ]
But you probably still made good memories together, right? Those weren't lies or anything.
Even if she might have acted the same with other Servants... anyone can say things like that. If you weren't around, maybe someone you're friends with would just be hanging out with someone else, or things like that... but that doesn't make what you did have any less important.

Are you close to collecting five?
no subject
[ he frowns. ]
We were close, but the dishes we collected got stolen. So it's back down to one.
no subject
[ does she have to not think about whether she can cross dimensions
not that she wants to do anything, of course. ]
no subject
I don't know what happened after that. By that point I had to leave with my brother.
no subject
I don't like the sound of him. [ He sounds like any other human. Petty and selfish. ]
You can't collect more dishes by yourself?
no subject
We can only collect them in specific circumstances, and we don't know when those happen. So the time limit was until my brother had to leave the city.
no subject
[ She's just wondering. ]

[ Don't be so defeatist. ]
If you have a wish, there's a point.

But I think now I'm just tired. And done.
no subject
[ She thinks he's within his rights. Honestly, even if it's not, she thinks Toi should. ]
Why are you giving up?
no subject
so he just shrugs. ]
It's... have you ever made a decision that sucks, but it's something you have to hold to?
no subject
[ So.... her experiences may not relate.
Technically, it was another her, but it was still her. i hate fate/ ]
no subject
... well, that's a power better kept away from humans, I think.
no subject
[ ... ]
I did it for a human.
no subject
A friend?
no subject
[ She knows that any other Servant she found would've been treated the same way. ]
She found me when I thought I was left to die.
no subject
he could ask about that specific instance, but. maybe not now. ]
What was she like?
no subject
She's the type to believe in someone no matter what once she decides to put her trust in you. She's the type that foolishly runs about, trying to turn any hopeless situation around and pulling everyone in their vicinity into it.
[ ... ]
She's the type of person who would hold my hand.
no subject
it's funny, how no matter where you go, there always seems to be someone who'd charge in and demand to be with you in some capacity. ]
She sounds... [ a lot of words come to mind, but he can't really settle on any of them ] nice.
no subject
[ There's no heat to that, more barely hidden fluster than anything else. ]
In the end, I was just another Servant to her.
no subject

no subject
[ Those memories are dazzling and radiant, and even if it wasn't truly here, they still touched her. ]
I refuse to let anyone call them sad memories.
[ She's never been one who had to have her feelings returned. That's never been the issue with her. ]
no subject
Even if she might have acted the same with other Servants... anyone can say things like that. If you weren't around, maybe someone you're friends with would just be hanging out with someone else, or things like that... but that doesn't make what you did have any less important.
