001 Perogative // Video

[The camera turns on to show... some woman's cleavage. Oops, a little higher, right? The camera raises up a bit to reveal a pair of curious green eyes, before pulling back to present a girl in a red dress. The backdrop seems to be a rather swanky penthouse in Crystalden, a nice view of the city being displayed through a large window behind her and the set of rather grand-looking furniture adorning the place.]

I see! So these function much akin to my Master's terminal... Even the device given to me is worthy of praise! Umu, they were even so wise as to assign a brilliant district, befitting of the overwhelming splendor of myself! I must say, that woman has good taste... though not as much as I do, of course. Then again inferiority is hardly a sin, especially when next to the most greatest Emperor of them all!

[After that obnoxious monologue to herself, the girl flashes a bright yet very conceited smile.]

... Now then, I see that there has been a trend of introducing oneself over the network. Though I have no qualms about talking about myself and have much to tell, I am not one to follow trends so casually! To do so would to allow myself to fade into obscurity, and that mustn't do. Nay, such would go against my very nature!

Therefore! I extend to the lot of you the honor to introduce yourselves to me, Saber! Lay upon me your stories, and I will graciously listen with open ears. I will not ask how privileged you feel.

[She plops herself on a red armchair behind her, and crosses her legs.]

Now... begin!

H-How dare you?! Mock me not with your dismissive one-word text message! Are you so insecure with yourself that you must be defiant against my amiable attempts of befriending everyone?!

nope

just dont care

[Also because he's deaf, but he ain't saying anything.]

And what exactly do you not care about?! Yourself? How can you call yourself a man if you have no pride and self-respect? It is tragic, I tell you!

[ASSUMPTIONS ARE RLY GREAT AYUP.]

no

i just dont care about you

[In that case, two can play at that game! Except not really because deep, deeeep down, he kind of wants to know who you are. Just a tiny bit, though.]

[Okay, he has to do a double-take because what did she call herself???]

Er, pardon me for asking, but who exactly did you say you were again?

[Oh dear. You just had to ask that? She places a hand upon her heart, as if to swear upon to her excellency.]

Why, only the greatest artist and Emperor to ever live! My radiance and talent would outshine the god Apollo himself! Umu, I do believe this Queen could not resist having such a great being take up residence in her kingdom! Of course, my loyalty and allegiance belongs eternally to another, but I am not so cold as to reward flattery! Besides, I have little else better to do! Oh yes, I will see to it that none shall regret my presence.

[Yeah. Fail to be specific with a question pertaining to herself, and you get a minute of egotistical verbal-spam. Such is the Red Saber effect.]

[...that was too much. That was way too much, oh jesus!! But, it calms him somewhat. He was probably just hearing things, so there's no way she had call herself Saber, nope.]

...so, should I call you Emperor, then?

[Shruuuug.]

Well, if it does help you sleep at night, I wouldn't object to be addressed as such. Though commonly, I am referred to as Saber.

[If there's one thing Saber's good at, it's taking expectations and feeding it to crocodiles.]

I'll leave it to your preference, however.

[There's an instant, split-second where his eyes flicker in absolute shock. Saber? Saber??? How could it be possible- unless she was in a previous war?]

[Of course, dwelling on that thought would have to be for another time. A mage such as him can't let down his composure too early.]

Then, Saber it is! I am Malik Ishtar, and it's a pleasure to meet someone as bright as you. However, I'm afraid I don't really have any interesting stories, so I'd rather not bore you with them.

[She does notice the bit of hesitation, but elects to ignore it for now. There is a myriad of possible reasons for his reaction, it would be irrational to jump to conclusions when there are not enough clues. So have an affable smile!]

Malik, is it? A fine name! It much reminds me of a region one of my Master's dear friends came from... but that is enough about me! I highly doubt that you would bore me, for everyone's stories are a paint-stroke to form the masterpiece of what they are now. Do not be insecure with yourself.

but what kind of stories do you want to hear?

Fumuu... That is entirely up to you. You can talk about what you are most proud of, or your hobbies, or even something as simple as your favorite color or food... It matters not. As long as I learn more about you, I shall be satisfied.

hm. well.

when i was younger, i traveled a lot. all across sinnoh -- the region i come from. i grew up in a city by the beach, where the sun always shone brightly. but everywhere else was very different. cities in the mountains, and in the marshes. some of them had ancient ruins in them. and others were very modern.

and after i'd seen everything i wanted to see, i went back home. it took a long time. maybe a year and a half or so?

I see! [Saber smiles and nods with satisfaction.] It seems you had a very shining and wonderful history. It is nice to travel well! Umu, it is always joyous to learn more about those around me.

May I have your name, former traveler?

[Wow you are super edgy.]

Um, sure! Hi, I'm Rosa! I'm a Pokemon Trainer, and...

[A long, long pause. What else is she supposed to throw in? Movie star? Regional champion? Successor of a legendary hero? All of the above? None of the above?]

...Oh. Where do I even begin?

[SHE CANNOT BE SABER IF SHE IS NOT EDGY!!!]

Umu! A very good start, Rosa. A pleasure to meet an adorable maiden such as yourself. [She nods in approval.] Methinks it would be necessary to explain what a "pokeyman" trainer is in the first place. I have not heard of such a thing.

[i see what u did there]

Heehee, thanks! I'm flattered you think so! Anyway, I guess you're not the only one... A lot of people have been asking that. But how do I even explain it? Umm...

So, our world is filled with all these creatures called Pokemon, right? And they've had a pretty special relationship with people since... Well, probably since people even existed! So we make friends with each other and cooperate at things, and that's how we live. People who train Pokemon to be strong and battle each other are called Trainers, but there's lots of different ways they live with each other, too.

Okay, your turn! What are you Emperor of, anyway?

[Well she's glad you asked!]

Only the most glorious Empire within the history of my world! Umu, I was a radiant ruler of my beloved Roman Empire and its most dear citizens many centuries ago.

[Oh yes, she's older than she looks.]

Though, these Pokeyman you speak of... They strangely remind me of myself! Namely, the system of Servants and Masters in my world! Mages in the Moon Cell become Masters and summon us so we may valiantly be their sword and shield! Simply put, we fight in their stead while they strengthen us.

I've never heard of it. But I bet it was really great! [Just kind of smiling absently because WOW, that's gotta be on the top ten list of weird things she's ever heard.]

So wait, does that make you a ghost or something? And what's a Moon Cell? Can you even put cells on the moon?

A cell as in "prison", my dear! It is a computer on the moon that can create virtual realities!

[SO EXCITING!]

You could say that I was revived through its data giving form to me. And a wondrous job they have done! As an artist, I must thoroughly praise this craft.

...Prison? Why would you be in prison? And why would a prison create virtual realities?

[Indeed, if not for the prospect of being locked up, or so she thinks.]

Oh, I get it! It must be really amazing to have technology that can even revive the dead... So wait, does that mean you're data, too?

I suppose that what I was composed of before my arrival. I'm now much flesh and blood. However, no matter what I am made of, I am still my own person.

[Sagely nod.]

You understand, don't you?

Mm. Nice upgrade. [ he likes you better this way. ]

[......]

Oh, 'tis the talking rat again. Has death not humbled you in any way?
