exsilium | ITP: Exhaustion

[Video]
[The feed opens up to an injured guy, probably from all that fighting that's been going on the last month; and frankly, it's a miracle that he's not keeling over dead when he's supposed to have been killed from all of those. Still, he just stared at it and asked a question:]

...Is everybody alright?

[...Yeah, totally a selfless idiot here guys, kthx.]

Er, I'm just asking since if you need some help with getting from one point to another, I can help you with that. Just give me a call, and I'll be there.

[Even if there's a probability of him dying on the way there. And Click! There goes the feed.]

[Action; Unit 704]
[There's a pleasant smell coming out from the apartment, and frankly; that's because of a certain, cleaned-up guy just doing some cooking, wincing all the while as his injury caused him slight flares of pain whenever he did sudden movements.

Which is the case right now as he tried to cut the root vegetables on the chopping board while he waits for the meat to brown. In either ways, he seemed to be quite occupied with the activity to even notice if someone comes in or not.]

You will do no such thing.

[ Shirou, she's allowed you to do every other reckless thing under the sun. No more. No more now that she's seen him this way. ]

I have to.

[Look who is being a hard-headed fella again.

3 guesses and 5 of them don't count.]

You are not fit physically to be able to do so in a safe manner. Please look over yourself and see that you are incapable of it, Shirou.

[ Bluntly said. ]

No, I'm pretty sure I'm still capable of it.

[...Said after he looked down at himself; really, he should know better than to rush in by now, especially without Avalon's protection to heal his wounds after every battle.]

Allow me to go in your place, Shirou. It will be much quicker to have someone able-bodied provide escort than someone who may slow them down.

Absolutely not. You're tired enough from all the fighting as it is, you're the one who should be getting some rest.

Need I remind you that I am a heroic spirit and do not need to rest unlike a certain boy who is very much human?

[ Unimpressed at his "chivalry" right about now. ]

I just can't sit around doing nothing.

[He'd feel guilty otherwise, and that's not what heroes of justice do...!]

There is plenty you can do while resting. You could use this device to communicate with others and help guide them towards better union. Direct them to people who can solve their problems. Coordinate better organization amongst those who can fight.

[ Saber, he's not a general.. ]

Saber, you and I both know that I'm not a person suited to be in command, of all...!

[He's going to argue okay...]

... Hm, that much is true.

Gather information for me and present it when you are ready. I need to know who is combat ready, who is trained in triage, and who can craft armor.

[ Quickly adding on: ] Also if there is a reliable source for food anywhere.

...You do know you could've just asked me if you're hungry, right.

[He's prepared for these kind of things you know...]

I meant in case of an emergency where food is not readily available to us, Shirou.

That is all. [ Hiding her face. Because she's so hungry, Shirou. ]

...I made some stew if you want to come over and get it.

[See? He's prepared already...!]

With beef?

[ Not sure if she should come over if it's just vegetables... ]

Wouldn't be a beef stew without beef, right?

And chicken?

[ Saber just really likes meat okay... ]

It's there too.

[You and your food...]

I am on my way.

[ Click. Don't worry, she'll be there Soon. ]

[SIGH, honestly...He's going to just. Wait in their housing orz.]

[ Oh, cooking. It's been a while since Jaina's see any of that face-to-face. So don't mind the sorceress looking down over his shoulder. ]

Do you require any aid in baking today?

-!?

[He jerked in surprise, and winced in pain from the action; though, not before he suddenly turned to notice that a woman is there in the kitchen.

...

Well, this could be worse. Ah, yeah, his housing assignment did have someone named Jaina, right...?]

A-ah, I guess some help would be appreciated, yeah.

[Either ways, hopefully she's able to work her way around the kitchen or so the cooking god help him.]

[ Excellent, because she has plenty of experience in the kitchen as do all mages from her world. Within seconds the counter is covered in various bread and pastry items. ]

Did I miss anything? [ Yes, she just used magic to out-cook Shirou Emiya, what now? ]

[...............what just happened.]

...I... don't think you did, but what did you do just now...?

[ Sorcery, Shirou. It's one hell of a drug. ]

I conjured some items to go along with the meal you have been working so hard on. Hot bread is always a well appreciated addition, yes?

W-well, yes.

[He's still wondering on what kind of magic was that, but he's more surprised that she's using it for such a mundane thing...]

But... Uh, isn't conjuring things like that takes the joy out of actually making it yourself by hand?

Do I seem the type to enjoy that skill?

[ Jaina laughs. ] It was a necessary skill to learn.
