[ Maya only huffs a short laugh, unfazed by nosy roommates, and reaches a hand up to pat Mordred's head. ]

I'm glad I'm not on your hit list, but I wasn't really talking about me. I know how to leave flowers alone and appreciate them.

[rebeliune]

Don't pat my head like I'm a kid!

[ ... She makes no effort to pull away, though, because she actually likes it. ]

Who cares if a few idiots die? That way they can't screw up again. [ But she relents a moment later. ] ... It's not like I'd actually kill anyone, though. I'd just beat them up until they apologized to Berserker.

[scooptimistic]

I'm patting your head because you're my roommate and I appreciate you not trying to murder me. When it happens once, you really think about how grateful you are to everyone else!

[ Maya, please don't be so blasé about people coming for your life. She grins, though, and Mordred gets another pat for her troubles. ]

But smacking some sense into someone for messing up is a completely different thing. Especially for your friend's sake. I'd do it, too.

[ She has done it. ]

[rebeliune]

[ She accepts the second headpat with minimal grousing, but: ]

Wait, someone else tried to kill you? I'll kill them!

[ This time, she does actually mean it. ]

[scooptimistic]

[ oh my god, Mordred. ]

Not here. It's okay. Obviously I'm still alive.

[rebeliune]

It's not obvious at all! You could be a spirit like me! Or some sort of necromancer's zombie!

[ Even if she's weirdly casual about her own death, people she likes dying is a Big No. ]

[scooptimistic]

... Er. Well. I mean, that's possible, but I would have had to die first. So I promise my heart's still beating!

[ Okay, yes, she died, but she got better via reset and that's a different story entirely.

And okay, her roommate came for her life once, but she doesn't need a Mordred vs Ulala throwdown. ]

[rebeliune]

Good! Keep it that way!

[ Solid advice. ]

So what the hell happened? Did someone send an assassin after you? I mean, you seem like the sort of idiot who gets involved in dangerous things.

[scooptimistic]

I'll have you know that I am an extremely smart and capable lady who gets involved in dangerous things!

[ ... yeah, she's not denying that part. ]

Anyway, I was investigating a rumor and a serial killer decided he had it out for me, for... a few reasons? No big, though, he's not a problem anymore.

[rebeliune]

You can be both those things and still an idiot!

[ ... Not really, but Mordred logic. She blinks at how casual Maya seems about the whole serial killer thing, but quickly shrugs it off. ]

So... that means you froze him with that Artemis chick, right? And then, you left the statue somewhere as a warning to everyone else!

[ Look, she's related to the Round Table Torturer, her ideas aren't going to be the best. ]

[scooptimistic]

No, he just got stabbed to death when he tried to hijack our blimp after we escaped a museum that was completely on fire.

[ Ah. ]

[rebeliune]

[ ???????????????? ]

You have a blimp? No, wait, why was the museum on fire? I thought you were a reporter!

[scooptimistic]

Ah, no, the blimp was the museum's. We had to use it to escape off the roof.

[ Yep. ]

And the serial killer guy I mentioned had rigged it with bombs, and we were chasing after him, so--!

[ YEP. ]

[rebeliune]

[ She's silent for a good few seconds.

Then, she starts slapping Maya's back (a little too hard, though not on purpose) as she laughs uproariously. ]

Just how the hell are you still alive? That's crazier than most of the crap in a Holy Grail War!

[scooptimistic]

Oof-- hey, gentle, I'm not as resilient!

[ Humans bruise, Mordred! ]

But I just-- decided I wasn't going to die, no matter what, and it worked out. [ Stubbornness and Personas can get you places. ]

[rebeliune]

It's fine! No matter how hard I hit you, you won't die, right?

[ Using Maya's own words against her like an asshole... ]

You really are something, you know that?

[scooptimistic]

That doesn't mean it won't hurt...

[ Mordred, please. ]

But thanks, I think? That's a compliment, right?

[rebeliune]

Idiot, of course it is. It's rare to find a person like you.

That's why, whether you're my Master or not, I'll follow you anywhere. [ After a pause: ] Well, if I'm not protecting Berserker. But besides that!

[ She didn't even mention her dad... progress!! ]

[scooptimistic]

Aww, Mordred!

[ Even though you just called her an idiot again... ]

I'm definitely not your Master, but you've got my support too! But definitely give Berserker first priority, I can take care of myself. [ Even though she is not an overpowered Servant? Okay... ]

[rebeliune]

So can Berseker. But we have a special connection, so I'll protect her even if she doesn't need it. ... Actually, I'm pretty sure you need it way more than her, since she's a Servant and all.

[ She stands back up so she can seem more impressive (lol), and gets down on one knee, lifting her gaze just slightly. ]

Even if we aren't like that [ like what ], I'll lend you my sword as well. I, Mordred, swear it on my honour as a knight, and future king.

... Heh, I sounded pretty cool just now, huh? Way better than my father would have! [ It was nice while it lasted. ]

[scooptimistic]

[ Like what? Fellow Servants? Maya has no idea, but as she glances down at Mordred, she can't help but smile (and refrain from patting her head, this time). ]

Now I really do feel like a princess. Thanks, Mordred. I've got your back, too-- just not as a knight or a future king or anything like that. But I'm still tough enough to lend a hand!

-- And you did sound really cool!
