exsilium | [video; bodyswap

[ The feed snaps on, and it's Saber, lying on her side with her cheek pressed against her knuckles. It's the more blue ~~yes, they're color coded~~, calmer version ~~also flatter chested~~, and probably the "older" one in staying in Exsilium. She has an almost uncharacteristic smirk on her face, but she's gonna go ahead and address the tablet with: ]

Tell me of the various tales of your lands, foreigners of Exsilium.

And not just any stories - I wish to know of your heroes, of your mythologies, of your monsters and men. Perhaps walking among you are heroes and villains themselves. I would think we've all calmed down from the Initiative's most recent fallacy: surely those afflicted have learned some things of their bodies to pique certain curiosities?

I am particularly interested in myths surrounding a figure known as King Arthur and his Excalibur. [ This is where her smirk just grows a bit too much for one whose expression is mostly guarded and impassive. ]

Different realms account for different flavors, but perhaps we will discover the threads here.

What are you doing?

[ She sounds just a tad bit frantic. ]

[Coby obviously just assumes Saber is wearing contact lenses and has removed her padded bra or something.]

King Arthur? I've never heard of that man. I only know of the Kings of my world, actually.

[HEALTHY AND STILL ALIVE DESPITE ALL REASON.]

Ah, there's my errant body. [ Smirkitty smirk smirk. ] I'm simply starting casual conversation. What have you been doing with my body?

[ Hey. Those are all natural! Hmph. She notes how the boy doesn't look too worse for the wear despite the medium beating she gave him. Hmm. ]

Kings of what lands or feats, then?

Treating it with respect and care. [ What else? ] I am afraid I must borrow clothes from my Master however unless you have something I could wear over... this.

Mmm? Over what? My clothes are meant to be that way.

[ Are you making fun of her sense of fashion. ]

King Arthur? I don't think I've ever heard of a king by that name actually.

... but if that's alright, I do know some stories.

[Nope. He's just too dopey to die.]

'Feats'? Well, there's only a handful of Kings in the world who accomplish what you could call 'feats'... I'm not sure if I'd like to emphasize them, either.

We no longer live in an age where Kings have commonly been warriors and much of our history vanished in the Void Century. I can't exactly give you a proper account of anyone who may be an admirable example, ma'am.

[ Gestures with her free hand like a king would permit her subjects to go on. ]

Regale me.

Then you may tell me of the man who taught you those body techniques during your training session with me.

[ Her lips turn down with slight disappointment, but hopes there's something out of this, at least? ]

You dress in this manner intentionally?

[ WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU. ]

[His stupid, repugnant face brightens. As if a light was switched in his head, Coby felt an obligation to brag about his tutor.]

Garp! [Coby's grin widened to a ridiculous extent and he straightened himself.]

Well, I can't say he's a true King, though he possesses an ability that is considered suited for one! Monkey D. Garp taught me everything I know! He's a former Vice Admiral of the Marines and was considered a Hero to the whole world!

[ BITCH WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU? Why are your clothes so tight-- ]

What logic is there to dress in something I wouldn't like?

Monkey D. Garp. [ A fascinating name, to say the least. She nods. She knows about naval, military titles, so to hold the name of Vice Admiral... ]

Heroes take many forms and do various deeds to earn that title. What has he done?

[ BECAUSE SOME OF US DON'T NEED TO FLAUNT WHAT WE GOT. ]

Well, I thought perhaps it was expected of you. I dressed as a lord would instead of a knight because that is what my people needed.

[ YOU'RE WELCOME, BY THE WAY. ]

"Expected"? Hah! The only expectations came from my own designs; I dressed in men's fashion simply because I could and liked the style! Who would dare lay down their common expectations upon an emperor?

[She tries to hold in a laugh; after all, maybe she's talking to someone who really is that important, but she wasn't expecting to feel like she was being granted audience and all that.]

Alright! Let's see now... Back where I'm from, there's a legend of a people called the Valkyria. [Well, not really a legend considering everything, but! Talking about them like they were is ironically funny now, in a way.] Have you ever heard of them?

There are just things a leader should do for their people. [ Like hide that you're a girl! ]

[ Granted, Alicia actually is talking to Britain's Forever King... 's body, at least. The one inhabiting said body did have Britannia s part of her lands, so that's double. Ahem.

Saber makes a brief hum in thought. ] It is very similar to a mythological term known as the "valkyrie" or valkyrja: women who are "choosers of the slain" in its Old Norse tongue.

That sounds more like a slave, than a leader. [ Deadpan tone. Gurl, you're Britain's Forever King. ]

Is it slavery if I devote myself entirely to their wants?

[ ... So still talking as though Britain and her are tizzight. ]

[ She almost facepalms. Almost. She just rubs the bridge of her nose for a moment. ]

Your words do not entirely deny mine, then. Are you truly who I think you are, residing in my own body?

... You mean you do not know of my identity even after our duel?

[ That wasn't so much of a duel as it was her whipping out her giant shiny. OOPS. ]

[ What was that about flaunting shinies? Saber holds out her hand and summons Excalibur without Invisible Air. ]

No one who would call themselves Heroic Spirits would mistake this golden blade.

Put that away before someone sees it!

[ Oh my god Saber, WHY? ]
