[Waver had walked away from the fight at the castle. He had only dared to go near it when his circuits cleared some - the first time in months

Once there, he had found his suit folded neatly in a chest, alongside his beloved red coat, and yellow scarf. Putting them back on felt more powerful than having his magecraft back. He was himself again, for the first time in months. Not entirely, there were little naggling things in his head, but he'd take what he could get.

He fiddles with his scarf as he leaves the building again, taking no time to explore. His patience is still too thin, overriding curiosity. He can head back to his house and see what his limits are.]

Comments

[untilavalon]

We don't have time to debate who will do it.

[This is frustrating, but Saber knows she must keep a level head.]

If neither of you will raise a hand, I will.

[gordianknots]

[Until this point in the conversation, Waver had been content to stay silent, watch the blame shift back and forth, but at the notion of what taking responsibility for the situation entails, he stiffens. There's mud around him, and he has an understanding of how it works.]

[answerer_sword]

...No, Saber. I will.

[Bazett takes one step forward. She had been willing to kill even a copy of Cu Chulainn for her mission. So she should be able to kill Waver too.]

[But...Waver clearly has a mind of his own...]

[She stops at that one step. It takes forever until she can take a second step.]

[gordianknots]

[There's nothing in Waver's circuits but mud, and when they open, the energy sears and crackles in the air. He won't attack first, he retains that much intelligence.]

[ Avenger sighs under his breath. Well, if the lady wouldn't take the out he's offering her, that's her choice.

Keeping to the side, and watching without interference over here.

He stays out of Bazett's way, remaining silently behind her when the woman takes a single step forward towards Waver. ]
