--Shhh. Stay still. Let me put this down and stop wagging... [Lancer was knelt in front of two dogs, both trying to raise their front paws and push him away. He clucked his tongue, handling a mass of rope, pulling knots out of it and scowling irritably. One could see he was wearing a plain black suit and tie and after he finished with the rope, he pulled up a brown bag which emitted a few gentle clangs as if it were full of bottles of liquor.

Of course, that's what it was full of. Having already blown through quite a bit of his initial stipend, Lancer started tying the bottles of liquor to one of the wolves--to which the beast whimpered pleadingly. Lancer gave it an arch look as he continued tying the bottles to it, effectively making it a pack hound.

The second wolf took the procedure with a little more grace as Lancer removed packs of cigarettes from the bag as well, tying them to its upper body before opening a pack and lighting one for himself. When he was done, he picked up the mirror and slipped it under one of the ropes hugging the second wolf, not aware that it was on at all.]

Am I forgettin' anything? [Lancer stood up and scratched his throat with his fingertips, trying to remember.]

Normally I wouldn't have either, but I met a wonderful woman and things went from there.

[cu_chulainn]

Guess I've got no right to complain in that regard. I've got my own weaknesses in that field.

[mama_saber]

[Arthuria laughs lightly.]

If you do not mind me asking, what Grail War did you take part in? I do not think I saw you during the fourth war.

[cu_chulainn]

The Fifth War. Though, I haven't taken part in it yet, to be frank.

I was brought here before I could get my Master's first command.

[mama_saber]

[Well this is rather distressing. Arturia's jovial mood completely disappears in a single instant.]

Do you know what year it was when you were summoned?

[cu_chulainn]

Ah? [That's an oddly specific question.]

I don't really remember. Maybe--the end of the millennium? I think it was close to there.

[mama_saber]

That soon? I imagine I should male preparations for such events when I return home.

[cu_chulainn]

You sure that wouldn't be rude of you? It's a bit of a social misstep if you invite yourself to a party, y'know.

[mama_saber]

Now now, if my family's safety is at stake I will do everything I can to protect them from harm.

[cu_chulainn]

Can't blame you on that front. Though, it must be nice. As a King, havin' that sort of life seemed like it would have been a pain.

Royalty and Knights never get to spend time with their family.
