Ah...

My home hasn't even met extra-terrestrial life that could invade us, yet.

<...Perhaps he is a cyborg? That would be remarkable, to say the least.>

(Nods solemnly, seating himself and awkwardly resting the scissors in his lap.)

Mm, a wise caveat on your part. Involvement at this juncture, even tangentially so, would entail a marked risk to my Master's life, would it not?

(and then Babbage speaks up, which causes her to spring up from her seat)

Hey! I've already gotten involved the moment I summoned my Servant.

I have to fight. I can't just sit by while people die and I can still do something!

Indigenous life, mostly.

Not many people, though.

And when they were people they weren't very advanced compared to us.

Though that's the colony work of the other nations, not Newway.

people already have died Miyu

the point of this conversation is for me to gauge whether both of you function on the same wavelength, though it seems there may be some issues

-nods-

Yeah, its' just paranoia of when the first time two of our post-sol civilizations clash will be.

It'll happen eventually.

I'm sure it will- everyone's paranoid about it, so it'll end up being a 'preemptive strike' because one of us decided that another one had too many weapons for its' own security.

(Sighs and rubs his temples.)

Miyu. Listen to me. Since there is no active Grail War, my duty is to protect us. If we—If we entangle ourselves in this affair, I fear it will put you and I in danger. From how this "Red Winter" is described, it sounds like we would be biting off more than we could chew if we pursued the Assassin and Caster.

(clenching her fist, shaking a little, she turns from Breen back towards Babbage)

How many Servants have been killed by the Red Winter so far?

5 is the current number I have, there may be more.

#1060262: Feb 29th 2016 at 8:22:41 PM

So, between you, Assassin, and the two enemy Servants, there've been at least nine involved.

(turns her head back towards Assassin)

This isn't a Grail War, you're right. It's bigger.

(Folds his arms.)

...And, from how it is sounding, not mandatory. And perhaps more dangerous. And with no obvious reward.

...Well, what's the risk of takin' your real form here, at least? Ain't like anyone from back home is here.

(Looks at her like she just called his grandma a whore.)

Ghh—... Master. Miyu. What of you? The whole reason I am even here—... I am here to protect you. If I allow you to make us partake in this thing, and that rat bastard gets his hands on you... Listen, you have your entire life ahead of you, my dear. You are a young woman with what is undoubtedly a bright future... Do you seriously wish to jeopardize that?

For now I would advise not getting involved if you two are having differences.

A master and servant not seeing eye to eye in the field often results in decreased efficiency

...The last time there was a Holy Grail War, everyone was telling me to stay away and be a bystander. Leave it all to the adults, people kept telling me. Leave it to the people who can actually fight.

And, do you know what happened? People died. People died, and I could have prevented their deaths if Tohsaka didn't treat me like a kid. I could have... I could have saved...

(as she grimaces, she clenches her fist tighter, to the point that her nails start to dig into her skin)

...This time, I'm going to fight. You want to protect me, don't you? Then fight along with me. Hiding isn't going to protect anyone, and it's going to be too late for us and everyone else if we become cowards.

And, if you don't... (tilts her head towards Babbage) ...then I guess I'm going to have to fight on my own. Without my Servant, and not as a Master.

Then you're crazy. Good, considering who we are up against some crazy would be useful.
