[Hello Savrou, did you miss vague shitposting about random questions? No? Here, have another! Only this one is with audio, and no odd name other than "Saber." Sadly, the man on the other side is somewhat unused to talking for deep or thought-provoking conversations. Someone help him.]

I have a question.

[...wait, he's supposed to ask everything at once on this thing. Right. This is... definitely not something he's used to. He starts again, trying not to sound too stiff.]

Do you have stories? [Uh. Hm. That still doesn't quite explain what he's looking for. Hang on, let him clarify.] By that I mean your worlds. Your homes. They could be recent, or from the past. Histories, legends. Fairytales. Any of those.

Do you remember any of them? What were they like? [Clearly, this isn't weird to ask anyone, right? It's normal? Siegfried has no idea what "normal" means. He's really bad at this.]

There were many, back in my home. Some faded over time, and others remained. It depended on where you lived or where you were from. [A beat, as if an afterthought:] And if you wanted to believe it or not, I suppose.

[IS THIS HOW YOU HOLD A CONVERSATION he hopes he's doing this right.]

Comments

[tearsinajar]

No, no need to apologize.

The thrill of discovery, I think. He'd...had a personal mission he'd been set on for so long. That also drove him.

[Siegfried goes to say "sorry" again, but catches himself.]

I can understand that. I've met several people with the same mindset.

[Magi are complex people, and Masters even moreso over Servants. Siegfried hasn't had the chance to really ask how or why they do what they do.]

It's good to know that not everything changes when you come to a new place.

[tearsinajar]

Not everything. But over time, a lot can and a lot will.

[gerechtigkeit]

It changes here then, as does everything else. [She can't see it, but he's nodding.] I see.

How long have people been on this planet?

[tearsinajar]

A handful of months. And before that, we were up in space traveling aboard a ship.

[gerechtigkeit]

[That... sounds almost impossible to him, but he knows better. It's just really hard to imagine.]

What was it like, being on there?

[tearsinajar]

Different. Being up in space, where I'm from, only people trained for it go up to the stars. You need to be able to withstand the difference in gravity and the endless void.

If you aren't used to it, it can get to you. In a bad way.

[gerechtigkeit]

I've heard of those. [He doesn't know the word for it, but he's familiar with it.]

And that wouldn't surprise me. [A huff.] I don't think anyone could simply adjust to something that different.

[tearsinajar]

It takes time. For anything. You'd have to be a superhero otherwise.

[gerechtigkeit]

[There's definitely a sound at her mentioning superheroes, as if he's recognizing what she says, but won't comment on it.

Instead, he changes the subject.]

My name is Saber. [A pause.] Thank you for being patient with me.

[With all his questions, and him not exactly knowing everything.]
