---Day 11, 7:45PM---
I called Miri to have a double date with her at what she said was her&Rider's usual place.
But they aren't...showing. Saber and I had to wait around awhile at our house since appearently they didn't think five at night is "dinner time".
"Do you think-"
"Clear those words, Saylest."
"Huh?"
"Only I may acknowledge what we intend. Bare in mind Rider's ability."
"Right. Guess I forgot."
"It's fine. Their request for a later time covers our conversation with Berserker...Though not the Overseer."
"Is that bad?"
Or more promptly, isn't it better that they know about the rogue blood magi?
But of course, if Saber doesn't think they should then I can't say it out loud.
Yeah, I can't let Rider survive this war. This ability of his is REALLY annoying to deal with.
"Let me ask you something though. How does it feel to yield to no privacy on what you may say?"
"I don't...understand. What?"
"I'm talking about Elizabeth. Rider's inconvenience should reflect Elizabeth's disdain for how she is bound to my whim."
"It's...agonizing, I guess. There's a lot I want to say or do, and I can't at the moment. I feel like I have no privacy, even in my own hotel room."
"Perhaps you should tell her that. Understanding the girl's pain is a good way to make her understand there is more beyond it."
"I...guess I should make a bigger effort?"
Saber nods with a smile.
Yeah, Elizabeth's situation is even worse, since she's never sure of if or when Saber is reading her thoughts as well.
"It's almost time to go. Are you quite ready?"
"Yeah..."
It's been like this since we called them at five. Making sure not to say anything useful to Rider. Idle banter that isn't even allowed to get personal! It's agony at it's finest. It's the most boring time I've spent with Saber since she friggen arrived.



---Day 11, 8:05PM---
"They're late."
"Give'em five more minutes?"
"I'm hoping they intend to ambush us."
"Why...would you want them...to ambush us?"
"Oh? But don't you have the same feeling?"
"So in other words...It'd give you a valid excuse to kill Rider?"
"Oh my yes. Quite."
I have a hunch Saber made sure I was the one to say it just so that Rider would be sure to pick it up with his ability.



---Day 11, 8:15PM---
"Saylest, what time is it?"
"It's...Eight Fifthteen."
"...Are we supposed to wait...until nine for these two brats?"
"No...They said eight."
Saber's face.
Dear god her face.
This is the scowl of a girl who hates the idea of patience and waiting more than Alondite hates Magi.
This scowl could crush the buildings around us.
"Call her. Now."
"I'm sure there's-"[/color]
My ass hits the ground pretty hard.
Where did my chair go?
"Right. This. Instant."
"Fine. Fine."
I call up her phone.
"No answer."
"I will end their existance."
"Miri isn't so bad. Just blame Rider for them being late. He seems like that kind of guy anyways."
"A bold statement, considering he might hear it."
"So what? He seems like a lazy guy. I don't care if he hears it or not."
"Not like it would influence the situation much if he did."
"...wait. Why was there no answer?"
Saber drops her face onto the table in boredom.
"Either they're ignor--"
"No. It's not like that. I'd know if they blocked the call. And if they didn't, there's voicemail. But the phone...just didn't pick up."
Saber picks her head off the table.
"Perhaps some trouble of their own..."
"Wouldn't you sense that level of a fight?"
"The amount of mana being released would need to be extensive. And in Caster's case, it was a trap meant to lure out servants."
"Maybe Lilian felt something. Lemme try to call her."
Come on pick up. This is kind of important.
Stop being Caster's portable battery and...
"Same thing with Lilian's phone? And I KNOW she has voicemail, I set it up!"
"Aren't you perhaps looking too deeply into this?"
"...I have one more call to make."
I dial the number and wait for something to happen. Someone to pick up, or anything.
"Same situation it seems? I suppose the overseer is too exhausted to care."
"...I wasn't...calling her...I just called your phone."
That makes Saber finally wake up. She pulls her shirt out of her pants pocket instantly and flips it open.
"Did you receive anything?"
"Huh?"
"I sent a text just now."
"...No, nothing."
"Some sort of barrier then?"
I start looking around at the people in the restaurant. They're all normal. No one has noticed anything wrong.
"Well it's not an illusion if it affects you too."
"It seems Rider is wanting a brawl afterall."
"A barrier that blocks communication...I guess that's kind of rider-ish."
Saber stands up.
"Do you want to lead them away from here and hope they follow?"
"If it's not Rider, they may not be willing to follow two random girls leaving the area."
