Anyone else getting a massive wave of culture shock? It's totally kicking my ass right now. I got a nice little gig set up here above a bar, but the catch is I gotta work. But yeah, people are coming and going like crazy around here. Weird outfits, weird hairstyles. Seeing everyone go crazy about freedom is pretty freakin' cool. Nobody needs some stuffy old dude sittin' in a golden high chair sucking his royal thumb and giving out orders all the time.

Not gonna lie, I've seen some pretty big palaces before, but I totally wanna raid the hell out of Versailles.

So anyway, is it like this all the time when you guys get a new mission? I've never been to Paris before, but I kinda know what it looks like from pictures back in my own time? Universe? Good luck getting your head around that shit, it's way too deep for me. I was all excited to see the Eiffel Tower, but apparently it's not gonna exist for like... a hundred years.

@ENTERTHEDRAGON Why would you want to raid Versailles?

[HERE COMES THE OLD KNIGHT NO-FUN TRAIN]

[ryuji]

@WEHFRIED Why wouldn't you want to? Think of all the cool stuff it has in there.

[Gerechtigkeit? More like "Get rekt, kid."

But seriously, if people are starving and rioting and there's this symbol of obscene wealth and glory, doesn't it kind of make sense to want to see it get taken down?]

[gerechtigkeit]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON There might be, but you could easily put yourself and the rest of us in danger if you did so.

[ryuji]

@WEHFRIED Lighten up a bit!! I'm not gonna start rushing the gates just to get a selfie with the royal chamber pot.

[gerechtigkeit]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON ...lighten up?

[MODERN TERMS, THEY ELUDE HIM. And what even is a selfie??????????????????????]

[ryuji]

[At least he doesn't have to explain chamber pot???]

@WEHFRIED The act of having a light shone on your face?

[gerechtigkeit]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON Why would you shine a light on my face?

[Small mercies. This conversation is completely derailed, though.]

[ryuji]

[This guy is for real???]

@WEHFRIED Photosynthesis.

[This is going to be





So much fun.]

[gerechtigkeit]

[100% for real, enjoy your trolling session, Ryuji.]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON Photosynthesis?

[That is definitely a new one. /FRYSQUINTS]

[ryuji]

@WEHFRIEND Yeah. It's how you grow. I'm helping you learn to expand your horizons, dude.

[gerechtigkeit]

[FRYSQUINTS HARDER.]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON What horizons, exactly?

[ryuji]

@WEHFRIED I'm gonna pull you into the 21st century

[gerechtigkeit]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON Why?

[No really, he's confused. PLS EXPLAIN.]

[ryuji]

@WEHFRIED Ah screw it, it's too easy.

Lighten up just means... to relax a bit and enjoy yourself instead of overthinking everything. You've done that before, right?

[He's just going to... hand over the slacker bible to Siegfried.]

[gerechtigkeit]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON ...yes, I have. I've never heard that before.

["Lighten up." Okay, it makes sense. NOW HE JUST FEELS EMBARRASSED, WHOOPS.]

[ryuji]

[THAT WASN'T THE INTENT.

Okay, maybe it was.

A little.

Decidedly, though, he likes this guy. He doesn't reek of the typical assholery of adulthood.]

@WEHFRIED Uh... okay, we're all time travelers here. What year are you from? Where I'm from, it's the year of our godzilla lord, 2016

[gerechtigkeit]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON I'm from a much earlier time, even compared to this.

[LOOK AT HIM AVOIDING ANSWERING THE QUESTION sorry, Ryuji.]

[ryuji]

@WEHFRIED Is this like one of those things where girls don't give their ages away?

1/3

[gerechtigkeit]

[The next three messages are sent at an incredibly fast rate.]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON What?

2/3

[gerechtigkeit]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON No, that wasn't what I meant.

[gerechtigkeit]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON I'm just... not comfortable talking about it.

Sorry.

[ryuji]

[Those rapid succession responses kind of amuse Ryuji, figuring that he's got this guy pretty flustered. Until... that last one comes in, and he tilts his head, looking down at what he received.

Well, he definitely didn't want to make Siegfried uncomfortable. That's pretty much the last thing he intended to do.]

@WEHFRIED It's cool, bro. [Usage of "onii-san" here just contrasts wonderfully with the French words all around it. He's trying to be cute.] You don't gotta say anymore.

@WEHFRIED Got a name you go by or am I gonna have to call you bro for the rest of my time in COST?

[gerechtigkeit]

[He's going to find that Siegfried is easily flustered- and also easily one to apologize if he can.]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON Thank you.

@ENTERTHEDRAGON Saber. My name is Saber.

[NO IT'S NOT BUT THAT'S FINE no one needs to know, shhhhh.]

[ryuji]

[He just... looks at his phone for a few moments.]

@WEHFRIED Your name is Saber too?

[gerechtigkeit]

[HOLLOW LAUGHTER INTO THE SUNSET Siegfried doesn't know what to do with this other than to answer him.]

@ENTERTHEDRAGON Yes. There's another Saber?
