... Saber.

[the vibes of wanting to ask something but also feeling like maybe it's a bad idea.]

[rippled]

[ they tilt their head. ]

Yes?

[kumeyuri]

... Wanna spar?

[surely this is a healthy way of doing things after they both had rancid vibes about being more weapon than person earlier.]

[rippled]

Of course.

[ unfortunately, it is not something they'd say no to. ]

[kumeyuri]

Ready whenever you are, then.

[since they were the one. in the middle of something.]

[rippled]

I can finish this after.

[ no point in continuing maintenance if you're just going to fight literally two seconds after it's done. they can do this later. ]

[kumeyuri]

Okay. Let's go, then.

[off to some clearing...]

[rippled]

[ onward.... ]

You are healed well enough, correct?

[ he said he's been healed but just. making sure he just wasn't being Brave [

[kumeyuri]

Yeah, pretty much everything is gone now. I'm not that reckless.

[rippled]

Hehe, just making sure.

[ they smile.

and okay they can fight away i assume once again neither of us want to thread out a fight scene ]

[kumeyuri]

[absolutely not so yea wahoo fight time even if uruha now has the added context of wow saber is a literal legend]

[rippled]

[ so is uruha..... to me

but it is a good spar and a good workout. when they are done, saber just sits down and then lays on their back. ]

Thank you, again.

[kumeyuri]

[TO YOU?

also flops down.]

What is there to thank me for?

[rippled]

You should just accept the thanks without question.

[ a huff. ]

Your presence, I suppose.

[kumeyuri]

[a light huff in return.]

Can't say I get thanked for that often.

[rippled]

Is that so...?

Well, you should.

[kumeyuri]

I think being my roommate might be influencing your perception there, Saber...

[sits up.]

But thanks, to you too.

[the vibes are not great, though more muted than the worst moments in trial, at least.]

[rippled]

I do not have biases.

[ they definitely do. ]

That was another long trial.

[kumeyuri]

No kidding.

[a flicker of something in his emotions, before it's snuffed out.]

At least we figured out both, I guess.

[rippled]

[ they turn their head slightly to look at him, but don't comment. ]

Although Zhongli still remains a mystery.

[kumeyuri]

[he just looks back at them, their emotions quiet.]

... Unfortunately. It'd be good if it was Firefly, but it's not like we know.

[rippled]

It would solve many issues if it were. I wonder if she would have said anything if we were able to ask.

[kumeyuri]

Not much point in questioning it now, aside from sending her or Zhongli-san letters to ask.

[he thinks yves really should've waited before just stabbing her right then and there, but he's not cruel enough to say that out loud when it doesn't solve anything.

...]

How are you feeling, Saber?

[rippled]

Me...?

[ they have to think about it, emotions whirling for a second before it evens out to a calm. ]

I am okay.

[kumeyuri]

... All right. [a beat] I know you probably don't want to talk about it, and there might not even be anything to say, but again, the offer is always there.
