-she grins, leaning forward to look down at him-

Aha, that's so cool...! What's your name, little fella?

I've been a bit interested in humanity's future. Been learning a lot of things, about how sustainable progress is... and from what I know, it really isn't.

In fact, from what I've learned around here... different humanities all dry out around the same time. From 2016 to 2018.

.....

What exactly do you mean by 'dry out?'

I'm not sure. Nonrenewable resources definitely play a part... but other things are also in play. Things that aren't as clear yet.

So you've been researching different worlds, then.

Not willingly. But as a Heroic Spirit - a legend given form - I've been to them.

“I’m called Mime, ma’am!”

-The deer spins around in place-

“Thanks for freeing me from my book!”

....

A 'legend given form,' you say? So you're some sort of phantom, then.

Mime... aha, I can see why you're called that...~ I'm Monika. That's Muramasa, and this guy is Hayato.

(snaps her fingers)

Bingo. Hence all the anachronisms that threw you for a loop, I bet.

And... Mime's a bit on the nose, isn't it?

-He looks at Mime, chuckling-

You can't the name isn't accurate.

-Looks back at Mura-

A ghost, hm?...Do a lot of aimless wandering and haunting shrines?

Luckily, no. I'm more like an antibody of the world - stored away outside of space and time, and usually only get called out when said world's in danger.

Emphasis on "usually." Just like how humans learned how to manipulate their antibodies... I find myself summoned for smaller things a lot.

Why would I be dangerous to you?

...Hah..Us humans are quick learners.

So what have you been summoned to do this time? Hopefully nothing too demeaning.

Eh, right now I'm just Moni's bodyguard. And sweetheart.

(smiles... but only for a moment as she catches herself)

...And no, before you ask, I'm not a mail-order bride.

I was going to say "callgirl."

“Not being able to talk runs in the family, so it’s a common name here.”

“It’s a pleasure to meet so many humans!”

Only a callgirl? Yeesh, I'm offended...

(turns to Monika)

I'm hotter than your average callgirl, right?

-He chuckles-

....

...So, in every world you've been in, that's the year range the human race comes to an end?

foxmccloud4387 Since: Mar, 2011
#1298197: Feb 1st 2018 at 5:28:55 PM

...At least, that's the conclusion I've come to.

The annoying thing is that I don't remember any of them. I only know the fact that I've been there - and that I was summoned along with hundreds of other Servants to fight some major threat to the world. Did we succeed? No idea.

It doesn't make sense why those world-enders would choose that time range. Unless there was nothing past that point - and they just wanted to hurry up their grand plans to remake existence. Or whatever.

Link stands just outside the forest, his arms crossed. He takes in a breath, then exhales, then reaches for the tablet on his hip and powers it on.
