[okay, you know what? to hell with keeping silent. after his run-ins with Prussia and Germany at the festival, he's angry. he's wary of them, and he wants the rest of Darstone to be wary, too. because, obviously, there are creatures here of all kinds, and they certainly don't fit Hitler's idea of the Master Race. yup, who knows what those Nazis will do!

a young-looking man appears on the screen with lime-colored eyes and blond hair. oh, also, note those humongous brows. he has a distinctively British accent]

Attention guests and citizens of Darstone. I would like to bring to your attention a warning. There are two dangerous blokes in the city and I urge you all to be careful around them.

[here, he holds up a picture he sketched]

They are from my world, and they have committed atrocities the likes of which I care not to discuss unless asked directly. Please be cautious! As I've stated, they are dangerous. Make certain you never turn your back on them!

That I have, in brief at least. Though I imagined most of them would have died out by now.

[video]

[blitzkriegd]

By now...? Ah, we are from different times, perhaps? In my world, the year is 1943.

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

How odd, the present date from which I hail is 1997.

[video]

[blitzkriegd]

And there are no Nazis in that time? [good, good! though is it wise for him to learn about the future? he feels this is important anyway]

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

Not at least in Japan where I currently dwell or Germany where my wife and her daughter are from. I know little of the rest of the world, which is a bit distressing not knowing how my beloved Briton is fairing.

[video]

[blitzkriegd]

[he doesn't know what to comment on first... the living in Japan, or a British man (he believes she is a man) with a German wife. there is... something about that that he likes.

we'll go with the more important one]

You're from Britain?

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

That I am, though it has been many, many, years since I've lay foot on it's soil.

[video]

[blitzkriegd]

That is... unfortunate. I bet it's beautiful in the future. Thank goodness it is still around. [a beat] You should go back!

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

That would be lovely, it would make for a nice honeymoon if anything. From all this I gather you are British as well?

[video]

[blitzkriegd]

Yes! [rather enthusiastic, this one. country pride!] My name is ... Arthur. Arthur Kirkland!

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

A pleasure to meet your Arthur, I am Arturia Pendragon

[video] 1/3

[blitzkriegd]

[oh, look at that! even their names are similar!]

[video] 2/3

[blitzkriegd]

[...so. very similar]

[video] 3/3

[blitzkriegd]

[..............similar]

Pendragon. Are you related to... Er, were you named after... King Arthur?

Re: [video] 3/3

[mama_saber]

[Arturia pauses for a moment, mulling over whether to tell the truth of the matter. There was no war going on and any she may call enemies were a world away, for now it seemed safe enough to reveal her true nature.]

...Rather that is the name I was known by long ago.

[video]

[blitzkriegd]

[well, he is not being completely honest with her either... but if she's going to tell him secrets...]

Long ago... How long? [he's on the edge of his seat]

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

Perhaps 1500 years or so?

[video]

[blitzkriegd]

You're that old? [no, it can't be!] You're King Arthur?

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

It's a...rather complicated matter. But yes, I was called that by most, though Arturia is my actual name.

[video]

[blitzkriegd]

B-but... Arturia... That sounds like... A female name. [oh my. his brain]

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

That is because I am a woman.

Re: [video]

[blitzkriegd]

[ooooooooooookay. where does he even begin with this? she looks like a boy, though, now that England inspects closer, he can see she's a woman and he is SO EMBARRASSED. but she said she had a wife, right? and children? oh goodness! not that he minds that sort of thing but it's still a shock. how far the world has come in 50 years.

though there is also the other thing]

King Arthur wasn't! I know he wasn't! I was there! I met him! [oops he gave one of his secrets away]

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

[That statement was odd, to say the least. But more important to Arturia at the moment was proving her own identity.]

I was forced to pose as a man for sometime, that may explain the discrepancy. But, if you are still are not convinced of my identity, perhaps you would like to see Excalibur?

[video]

[blitzkriegd]

[ghdfjk Excalibur]

Excalibur?! It's here?

Re: [video]

[mama_saber]

[Arturia nods with a smile.]

I keep it at my side at all times. I imagine it wouldn't hurt to show you for a moment.

[Concentrating for a moment, she dispels the magic keeping the the holy sword at her hip invisible to the naked eye. In a flash of light and wind, it once more becomes visible, its fae-forged blade gleaming a unearthly glow.]
