Is that so.

Of course.

. . . well, if you have a question.

You could ask now, I guess.

[but how do I ask questions? that means communicating!

well I can at least try, right?]

...Did you have friends in school?

Did you have any friends in school?

I asked you.

[I am an adult!!]

And I returned the question, I'm sure if you answer it then we'll both get the answer we're looking for.

You were always more outgoing...

But no, I was not particularly social beyond the necessary making of alliances. I thought perhaps you might be.

[ shrug ]

I was busy, and it wasn't like anyone could come over. So.

[ugggh bad feelings]

...But you've made friends here, haven't you?

I've gotten to know Saber a lot better.

[ totes friends nao ]

... Good.

[ a slight relax maybe?! ]

[ you're weird . . .!? somehow wasn't expecting that . . . let's moving on!!1 ]

I'm a good student, you know?

I would expect nothing less. You were always bright.

[ unsure if she should feel proud or angry, tbh - because she kind of wants to feel good that this is a kind of praise, but . . . ]

I did it for myself.

I can see that.

. . . as long as you do.

I am learning to see a great many things, lately.

. . . huh. That's kind of unexpected. . .

How so?

[ ~~you seem kind of blind sometimes~~ ]

It always seemed like you had the answers, when I was younger.

The true essence of magecraft is discovering new answers, as you know. When one's goals and measures are taken away, one must replace them and continue searching for those truths. Scholarship cannot be abandoned simply because the stage has changed, even if the changes are less than... desirable.

[ oh no dad oh no dad ]

Hm! That's true enough. You must have found something really interesting.

[nerd mode: on]

The existence of this place in itself is interesting. From what we know, the Root is the ultimate goal of proper magecraft. However, though the existence of alternate timelines and movement through time is something that we could have considered plausible if unprovable, the existence of entire realities completely divorced from the world we know is new. I have wondered if the Root we have searched for is the basis of all things even here, or if we have encountered something even more vast.

If the latter is true, we have the opportunity to study reality as a whole above and beyond what had been previously acknowledged. It is an unprecedented advancement of thought that would unset the very foundations of what magecraft has always known to be true. That is something anyone should find interesting.

[ just listens for a moment, tilting her head slightly ]

'Anyone should find interesting' . . . well, perhaps.
