[the video starts with someone (in a lot of green) too close to the screen. just the bottom half of his face is visible and his mouth moves as he mumbles something to himself. eventually, he leans back. some of you might recognize him as the Green Man who introduces himself as Robin. after a moment, he lifts his hand in a greeting.]

Hey there, folks. [that same hand rubs at the back of his neck.]

I'll make this short and sweet. [the recording turns around and focuses on a couple of these guys, brightly colored and lazily swimming around in a large fishing bowl on a windowsill. one headbutts the side of the bowl gently.

there's a sigh.]

Anybody in the market for a couple of rainbow fish? I don't want anything for 'em other than getting the responsibility out of my hands. Don't really care what you do with them, either.

[but he's out here

looking for a home for them.]

It'll be first-come, first-serve. Early bird gets the worm and all that... or fish, in this case.

[ If Arthur's last month is anything to judge by, it's pretty obvious that having a Master definitely isn't necessary for chroma either. He's gotten plenty from other Servants. ]

I don't blame you for that. I'd rather keep some distance from most, as it is.

[ Which... leads him to the matter of his own identity. With those who know him from Chaldea, there's no need for him to introduce himself. To everyone else, he's only told them to call him "Saber". Robin isn't a Chaldean, but Arthur knows the version of him from there, if even just distantly. This situation isn't exactly fair and if he doesn't want Robin to think of him as posing a threat to him, it's probably best for him to level the playing field, even if they have met on amicable terms right now. ]

Arthur Pendragon. My True Name. But like you, I would prefer to go by my Servant class in public.

And no, I haven't heard anybody's ideas about how we got here. I arrived in late January. Majestas first showed up then. In February, a statue came to life and nearly drowned Lunatia in magical water.

[there's a surprise -- that he would have something in common with a knight. and not just any knight. while not Gawain, Leo's obedient and loyal Servant, he's still one of the round table. the head, as it were.

the surprise he feels softens his expression from its perpetual droop.

leave it to a knight to want to level the playing field, too. if he had been in Arthur's... rather, Saber's position he wouldn't have done the same. he likes his advantages. honor and all that? better left to people just like Arthur and Dan.

slouching back, he leans against the wall behind him and closes his eyes as he crosses his arms.]

Heard about that. And I take it nobody's found a way to leave here, either? If they want to. [besides the place nearly getting made into Atlantis 2.0, he doesn't have any problems being here. he kind of... does what he wants and that's nice.]

I don't mind it.
