(hey, Monika and pals)

(walking by you is Muramasa, carrying a grocery bag and slinging over her shoulder... a pair of swords?)

(well, they aren't decorated like swords, lacking a hilt or guard, and one of those two is far too long to be a sword - no, it's more akin to a drying pole)

Mm, and what exactly are these, mmm"Legos"?

They're little blocks that slot together... you can really make, well, anything with them!

Hey, Muramasa? Did they have legos in feudal Japan?

(looks back at 'em)

No, we didn't have such a thing. The closest things we had were board games and dice.

(Sam) Before you ask, I'm a woman. So, no, I'm not compensating.

(Sam, just looking at Muramasa gives you an odd feeling... it's hard to place, but you can sorta feel like it's coming from the Command Spells on the back of your hand)

(Monika) Technology really is a convenience, isn't it? The smallest spark set the Human Order on an exponential growth.

(Finally gets to the end of his croissant, brushing the crumbs from his uniform.)

Mm, one would assume they would be, else the appeal would be nonexistent.

(Smirks smugly at this very obvious statement, peering into the kitchen now and again when not holding his gaze on Audrey.)

(wry chuckle)

I'm a Servant, I'm summoned into parallel worlds for a myriad of reasons. I'm not supposed to remember any of those summonings, but... certain things tend to leak through and stay with me.

And I distinctly remember that many of my summonings had to do with the Human Order's end, in a desperate bid to extend it further. Japan in 2016, China in 2017, America in 2018... I don't remember any real details, but I know that in every parallel world, they all occur roughly around the same time. So what does that say?

There's a concept we learned about in biology class called 'carrying capacity.' Basically, it has to do with how much of a population an environment can support.

It's like the max amount of cows that can graze on a field without depleting it, basically. When a population is below its carrying capacity, their birth rate increases, and when they're above it, their birth rate decreases.

I don't have all the data before me, but I think it's something worth considering.

(Monika) There's a certain group of Servants dedicated to keeping civilizations below their carrying capacity. Did you know that?

(Basaka) ...I'm going to pretend you didn't just say that. Not for anything but your own dignity.

No. Which is, undisputedly, a very good thing.

They're called Counter Guardians. Ordinary men and women who ascended to the rank of Heroic Spirit by making a deal with the world. As agents of the Human Order, they do whatever they can to ensure its continued existence.

(another wry smirk)

And by anything, I mean anything. Killing a politician to stop World War III, making entire industrial organizations disappear to slow deforestation and global warming, slaughtering the population of a country to keep the planet below carrying capacity...

Rooftop -> Upstairs

(Homura gets up, straightens her outfit out, and heads inside, walking through the upstairs hallway for the stairs to the Main Room.)
