It's not that I thought you would, it has just been a while.

Fair enough.

[ still offering painkillers.... ]

[

they take some. ]

[ offers snacks too ]

How've you been? Aside from... well. The murder.

Well, the same as always. It really is just going through the motions here.

[ the motions are mostly murder. ]

You're really strong, Saber. I don't know if I could hold up the way you did, the same things week after week....

I would not consider myself strong. I am just very used to being around people dying.

Well-- I consider you strong. Being able to go on and persevere when people keep dying... that takes a lot of fortitude.

... I suppose.

I just simply come from a situation where if you don't keep moving, then you will also die.

I'm sorry, Saber.

[ just outright ]

This place isn't much different for you, then, is it?

You are all a lot nicer than the people I normally dealt with, if I'm honest.

Honestly? Kind of the same for me.

[ unsurprisingly, she comes from hell ]

No one has caused any trouble over here?
