Hello! I hope you're all doing well! The Timeline has finally computed your mission objective — sorry it took so long! Sometimes he gets a little slow. Now, I know he may seem— different, but he's always been correct! Just... ah, be careful when talking to him? He's a learning machine, and all he really knows is about missions, so sometimes he says some strange things when he goes off topic. But don't worry! He tries his best. I'll connect you to him now.

TIMELINE.EXE IS PROGRAMMED TO RELEASE MISSION PARAMETERS. MISSION OBSERVATION IS COMPLETE AND RESULTS FOR MISSION: Nalawi ARE AS FOLLOWS:

Hello World ( ゚▽゚)/ Take the hassle and confusion out of the
Mission,
Try this One Weird Trick!

To help NALAWI, you will need to DEFEAT the GODDESS NALANNI so the energy can return to the world.* In doing so, the people of NALAWI will LOSE THEIR POWERS but the world will continue on. If this objective is not reached, NALAWI will BURN OUT PREMATURELY.

*NOTE FROM TIMELINE.EXE: Giant squid of the Sea, too
2 or 0 Not 1! Thank you

Good job, Rin, you literally made everything worse.]

[she hates you, gilgamesh.]

Jeez! What sort of king is happy with that kind of trash?

You made a very endearing face just now. I could not help it.

[Winning smile.]

[on second thought...]

N-No...! No, don't!

Heheheheheheh...

[Mistakes have been made here. Specifically, the mistake that was this conversation.]

[he can assume her reaction is exactly as it's depicted in the icon.]

What are you laughing about now?!

[personal profile] babbylon 2016-05-16 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, nothing. I was just imagining how I was going to enjoy you.

[...]

Privately.

[...you should've learned by now, Rin, that attempts to troll Gilgamesh will only ever backfire.]
defenceless: (blushin hardcore)

[personal profile] defenceless 2016-05-16 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
—Good. It's the only way you'll ever "enjoy" me.

[personal profile] babbylon 2016-05-16 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Do not lie to me, dearest magus. It is unbecoming.

[Careful, Rin. Your Archer's starting to test his leash. Severely.]

[then, she's going to pull on it? sharply!]

Excuse me? I never consented to anything with you! Just because you dream about it [like some desperate loser], it doesn't mean it will happen!

[personal profile] babbylon 2016-05-16 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Resisted! He's really out of control now.]

That may be true, but I am the sort of man that makes dreams into reality. You can hardly deny it.
defenceless: (super pouty sitting)

[personal profile] defenceless 2016-05-16 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
D-Did you really pull out a hokey, two-cent romance novel line like that? "I make dreams into reality". Hah!

—More like you make life into a living nightmare if you set your sights on some woman you just want to have to have her, and you're a boorish enough brute to be overbearing about it!

[ah, but she can. you will never win, gilgamesh. never.]

[personal profile] babbylon 2016-05-17 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
[False, actually, because...]

I am also a boorish enough brute to win.

[...he believes absolutely in his dreams, as well as in his victory.]

[gulp]

I'm not a prize to be won...

[personal profile] babbylon 2016-05-26 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
A prize to be earned, then?
defenceless: (YELLING AT ARCHER)

[personal profile] defenceless 2016-05-26 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
You just said "win", not "earn".

A victory achieved through proof of worthiness.

[You enormous baka.]
defenceless: (blushing on a couch)

[personal profile] defenceless 2016-05-26 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Whatever you call it, you still have to prove your worth.

[personal profile] babbylon 2016-05-26 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
If you insist.

[Though his flippant tone of voice makes it clear he feels he shouldn't have to, as said worth is already all but apparent.]

[yeah, well—it sort of is.

mostly she wonders why he's so enraptured with her that he keeps focusing on things like "winning" her affection and having her, even experiencing her praise. she's just a young woman. his comments make her blush, and maybe, maybe, maybe none of it is such a big deal? rin is a magus.]


... Come back to me and be safe. Remember your promise to me.

[he's committed atrocious wrongs, but if he's hers, and their relationship is different from his and her father's...]

You would never hurt me or betray me, would you? So don't do it. And perhaps you'll have a reward waiting for you.

[personal profile] babbylon 2016-05-26 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
I would hurt you. I would betray you.

[May as well not beat around the bush about it. However...]

But I would also return to you, and hold you, and tell you that all was well.
defenceless: (touches hands)

[personal profile] defenceless 2016-05-26 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
[she knows. but her point is that he treasures her life. she's coming to value his. just accept it and understand what she's really trying to say, gilgamesh.]

Fine.

[personal profile] babbylon 2016-05-26 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
[For her, a smile. Just a small one. But it indeed gives away his feelings as earnestly affectionate, despite all that has been said and done.]

Look forward to my visit. And I shall look forward to my reward.
