1st Code [Action] [Warning for Fate/Extra spoilers in comments!]

[Action - 505 Ricardo Street]

[Hakuno practically jumps out of bed when the alarms blare out across town. Alarm floods her first... but then, confusion. It seemed like just a second ago that, with adrenaline still pumping through her after the final battle, she had reached out, fingertips an inch away from the the Moon Cell...

... And then she woke up here. But... where was here? Was this some other construction by the Moon Cell?

Only one way to find out! She slid out of bed, exiting the room and looking around. Is this... someone else's house?]

Hello? Is anybody here?

[Action - Outside]

[Some time later, Hakuno is dressed and outside, looking up at the midnight sky, inky-black and dotted with stars.]

Huh... I almost forgot what this looked like... [Her voice doesn't sound wistful or contemplative of anything like that... she's simply stating a fact. She was so used to the strange digital sky surrounding the school, or the harsh artificial sun of the various levels of the arena. But this... this was different.] ... Considering everything, though, I guess that doesn't really mean much.

In terms of prana, she has probably already contracted to another Master. If she has regained her Servant status, that is. However, given the former relationship between you, she will probably still consider you a person to be protected.

[doesnotgetit]

Oh. Well... that's good, at least.

[She doesn't sound too convinced. It's true that Saber still cared about her; their tearful reunion said that much. But all those passionate speeches, the true joy Saber seemed to feel in fighting by her side... was that all gone now?]

[answerer_sword]

King Arthur is a knight. I doubt that she will abandon you so easily.

[Even if she bears no memories of a girl who would become her Master in the future.]

[doesnotgetit]

[Wait what. Oh thank god crisis averted]

... King Arthur? That's not Saber.

[answerer_sword]

She is the only Saber of that description that I know of...

[Unless she is talking about that other Saber?]

[doesnotgetit]

So there's... two identical Sabers walking around this town... [She's not too surprised to hear that there's another Saber. Hell, the final battle of her Holy Grail War came down to her Saber versus Leo's Saber. But for them to look exactly the same...

And both of them are even genderswapped rulers. Haha wow this is really throwing her for a loop.]

Ugh, this is going to get confusing.

[answerer_sword]

[She shrugs.]

As long as you are able to tell them apart, that should be fine. After all, as her partner, you should be able to recognize her easily, right?

[doesnotgetit]

[Hakuno nods.] Yeah. I'm sure I will.

... Out of curiosity, what's this other Saber like? Do you know?

[answerer_sword]

She is an honorable knight. From my conversations with her, it seems that she is a very helpful and protective person. I must admit--she is more modest than I had expected. Of course, as a Servant and a legendary hero, it seems that she is very strong as well.

[doesnotgetit]

[ >modest ]

Heh... I definitely won't have a problem telling them apart, then. There are some similarities, but it also sounds like they're pretty different.

[answerer_sword]

I have not encountered the other Saber very much, so I will take your word for it.

[Her interaction with the "other" Saber was limited to a phone call.]
