She knows of me, but I have never met her in life nor do I ever remember discussing her own legend.

[ She shakes her head. ]


No; there is no history there, although she seems a wise enough woman, in her own way.

[sageprincess]

[She quirks an eyebrow at that explanation, finding it to not make complete sense to her - despite living with two Servants and being acquainted with several others, she still only understands the bare basics of their existence. It just hasn't seemed relevant in this world where they've all been made mortal, and she doesn't see the need to pry.]

Yes, I would say that is an accurate assessment. [A small smile tugs at her lips, soft and fond.] I am thankful you get along well enough to consider sharing a roof with her.

[She can be lonelier than she lets on, sometimes. It would be nice if there were more people she could call her friends. That being said, the water is set to boil and she turns to face Saber as she waits.]

On that note, have you any questions for me about the house or those that live in it?

[arturiarex]

It is a matter of practicality.

[ Well, and she didn't mind her. Which was another aspect of it. It meant less of a headache. ]

Mostly... who else is here? And how many rooms are there to live in? Is it loud? Crowded? Quiet?

[sageprincess]

[Zelda, meanwhile, is a stack of paranoid neuroses in a trench coat, so. Living with other people is a Big Deal.]

It is just the three of us at the moment: myself, Shadow, and Lady Marie. She is easily the most energetic and sociable of the three of us, but she is not impolite about it, generally. Shadow and I tend to keep to ourselves more often. So I would say it is fairly quiet most of the time.

As for rooms... there are two more bedrooms that have been unoccupied for quite a while. Empty space is hardly at a premium; honestly, I imagine this house was built with a slightly larger group of people in mind.

[Or, you know, aristocrats with more money than sense. Either way.]

[arturiarex]

Interesting. If my other prospect falls through, I'd certainly be interested in accepting your offer.

[ She folds her hands, looking thoughtful. ]

Quiet is more of what I'm looking for, in all honesty.

[sageprincess]

[The corner of her lips twitches up slightly, and her shoulders lift in a light shrug.]

The city offers enough in the way of excitement, I find. [Too much, sometimes. Let Them Rest. She turns back to pull the kettle off the stove and begin pouring the tea.] Whatever your choice may be, I am sure neither Shadow nor Lady Marie would complain if you were to visit, should you find yourself in need of a moment's peace.

[arturiarex]

I may take you - and them - up on that offer if it continues to stand. I'll have to find something to do with myself.

[ Besides throw herself into the nearest lost cause. ]
