I barely had any.

[ they can ask the same of you... a week is barely long enough for injuries to be too healed... ]

[midway]

Really? Well, I guess that makes sense with how confident your are all the time.

[rippled]

If someone has the skills to back it up then they should be confident!

[midway]

[ Looks at them. ]

I'm in no position to judge swordsmanship.

To me you're entirely an enigma.

[rippled]

Am I? How so?

[ they seem amused. ]

[midway]

You do your best to help with everything, but it never seems like anything that's happening bothers you either.

It's hard to get a read on how you feel.

[rippled]

Ah.

Then, why don't we trade? An answer for an answer.

[midway]

Okay, I'll go first.

[ Doesn't ask ]

What's your dream?

[rippled]

[ why is claude immediately going for something difficult.

they're quiet for a moment. ]

... peace.

[midway]

[ He's here for ANSWERS and the TRUTH...

He doesn't see that coming thought. ]

Is it a scarce resource for you?

[rippled]

I have yet to experience it. But I've seen glimpses of it.

... and it's something that someone important to me said that he wanted as well. So, I'll strive for it.

[midway]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[ His curiosity has faded to dismay... Saber... ]

Does it seem like something you might see in your lifetime?

[rippled]

Likely not in my own lifetime, no. But I think it will be soon, at least. The times do seem like they're heading in that direction.

[ until the next war happens but. that's a later problem. ]

[midway]

That is good news, at least.

You're a good friend, Saber. Not that I didn't think so already.

[rippled]

[ they squint. ]

Is this flattery?

[midway]

[ Smiles. ]

You doubt my sincerity?

[rippled]

I don't know what I've shown to anyone that I'm a good friend here.

[midway]

You seemed genuine speaking about that important person earlier.

And even before that... I generally don't assume people would be bad friends.

[ doesn't he tho ]

[rippled]

There are plenty of people who are though.

[ a pause. ]

Same question back to you. What's your dream?

[midway]

[ Fair enough. ]

Change, I guess. I'd like to see an end to the war too, but I want to make sure there's positive change most of all.

[rippled]

Ah... your profile mentioned something about running a country, right?

[midway]

That's right. We're currently involved in a war, which is... not ideal.

[rippled]

No... no, it never is.

Is it looking favorable for you?

[midway]

To be honest, I'm not sure.

We've managed so far, but it definitely feels like every battle could be our last.

[rippled]

I suppose that is typical of war...

Has it been going on for long?
