[This is a bar post.

AKA

Gilgamesh is working at the bar. Well, working isn't exactly the word that could be used here. He's sitting behind the bar, reading a comic book with all the liquor set out on the bar free for the taking. Gilgamesh likes comic books, this is canon.

Maybe you're thirsty after doing some exploring on the new road and are stopping in. In that case, if you take a seat at the bar, Gilgamesh will glance in your direction but unless you've got something to say, enjoy the free alcohol. If you're someone he recognizes good at fighting, he's got a special surprise for you.

If you're underage...

...well, he doesn't care. This is how things roll in Ancient Sumeria.]

A shame you put so much faith in that fool when he has only been a hindrance to you. To think that you have the potential to be one of the most powerful masters and yet get held back by your own servant.

[gandere]

He isn't my servant.

[Her mind thinks back to what Lancer's told her about him, only leaving her to frown more.]

This town's placed him as my legal guardian though. I cannot be rid of him.

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

With me as your Servant, there is none who would be able to stand between you and your goal for this town.

[gandere]

It'd take a lot more than this and a drink to convince me to ally myself with all of your problems in this town.

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

All my problems?

[gandere]

Yes, yes. You know. Your enemies. You think I haven't heard ill of you from the people of this town?

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

What enemies?

[Sorry, none register on his awesome-dar]

[gandere]

[have a 'you've got to be kidding' look..]

All the ones who tell me to watch out for you and insult you daily. Without my gemstones, I couldn't even put up a proper defense against most of them.

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

A bunch of mongrels, I presume. No matter how they gather, ants will always be ants.

[gandere]

What if I used a command seal to ask you to behave in a proper manner?

[what then Gilgamesh]

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

And? A command given by that cannot be denied.

[gandere]

Wha-?

So you'd want to become my Servant knowing I could issue a stupid thing like that?

[She straightens up to look him in the eyes fully.]

What is the real meaning of this request? While it may be my birthright to have you as a Servant, why do you willingly want another Master? Your current seems to leave you powerful enough as is.

[She guesses he has a Master. She has no idea just who it is, but he couldn't perform his feats without one.]

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

Do I have another Master? [He sure does but you're thinking wrong, Rin. A+ Independent Action is BOSS]

Are you thinking that I require one to exist? Unlike other Servants, I can function indefinitely without one.

[gandere]

[Once again, she doesn't quite know that. Her logic is based off of Ciel and Archer's pact more than anything as she doesn't back down from his gaze.]

Can you really? I was under the impression the Archer class could only manage a couple of days before death, then reset due to this town's magical field.

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

You speak of Independent Action, hm? I generate my own mana and my Noble Phantasm requires only the barest amounts to use. As a matter of fact, I would say my capacity for mana is equal to all the servants from the Fifth War combined.

[gandere]

[That... was pretty impressive. She can't help but stare at him with a newly discovered sense of respect. Struggling to buy time, she says something rather foolishly.]

I'll consider being your Master if you can replenish my gem supply. Knowing my father, I am sure you know just what I speak of.

[That will give her enough time to think on this. Gemstones were not easily acquired here in Mayfield and to get enough money for them.. ha.

If only she recalls half of the shit he spouts from his mouth. Ah Rin and her mistakes at crucial times.]

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

And, I do happen to have a Master. You would have to get rid of him first. As for your gem supply, I have an unlimited number of them.

[gandere]

["Get rid of him first."

Either by forcing him to use up his command spells or..]

Who is your Master?

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

A magi who goes by the name of Theo. He had promise but now never ceases to disappoint me. To think that he has not even used me once...it is quite the insult.

[gandere]

Will you have the next powerful magus to enter this town attempt to kill me when you tire of me?

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

The difference between you and him is that I believe you can keep me satisfied. And most importantly, as long as you have Saber, I will never have a need to betray you.

[gandere]

And if Saber has her own reasons to deny me?

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

You two are friends, yes?

[gandere]

She doesn't remember things the way I do. Our friendship is barely just that.

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

If you were friends once, you will be friends again. That is how life works.
