[ Tohsaka was hurt.

Tohsaka was hurt because of him. Or at least, that's how he interpreted it as. But with him being someone who is selfless to a fault, this reaction is only normal whenever he sees someone close to him hurt. Therefore, upon her request to take a leave in order to procure something, he sets off towards the Station with the intent of finding her a gift as well as some more tools for the house. Of course, he doesn't really know that any appliances within the Station will only work inside the fairy ring, but anywhere is better than nowhere for him, so he kept trudging on regardless, unaware of the going ons that's happening throught Drabwurld right now.

Still, it can get kind of lonely, just trudging through the landscape alone, so he decided to use the locket that was given in order to communicate. A spoken company is better than none, after all. ]

Uh, hey everyone, Shirou here. [ Well, that was a smooth introduction, but he pushes on anyways. ]

I have a question for some of you that has the time to answer this: What kind of sword suits a headstrong lady who tries to look elegant while being a brute at the same time?

[ For all he knows, Tohsaka seemed to be interested in swordfighting now, and with all his concern, he hadn't really thought about how bad giving Tohsaka a real sword would be. Therefore, this question. ]

Yeah, uh, that's all for today, I guess. Thanks for your time.

[ With that politeness out of the way, he's going to just close the locket. ]

[She sheathes it again once she's sure he's gotten a good look, the armor disappearing as she nods.]

Aye. That's about th' long an' short of it. [She smiles a little cheekily.] On th' other hand, I am good friends with a blacksmith if ye need his name.

[Merida inclines her head when he introduces himself, considering she would've curtsied otherwise.]

Merida of DunBroch, daughter of Fergus th' Bear King.

Ah, yes. It would help in case I actually have a sword design that needs to be forged.

[ ...A royalty, though, she doesn't really give the air of one but he supposed that's one of her traits. ]

...The bear king, huh. Sounds like a fearsome warrior to meet in battle should he be here.

His name's Hiccup. You'll know him on sight from th' dragon. Big black Night Fury he calls Toothless.

[Considering dragons were all but extinct in the Drabwurld and the only other person she knew with one was Mako, she was sure he wouldn't get that mixed up. She smiles at that though.]

Aye. They didn't make him king after th' northern invaders were driven off for nothin'.

I'll make a note of that then, thanks.

[ Ah, then that means the girl before him sure sounds qualified to be a strong ruler, if her father sounds that impressive. ]

Ah, that would make sense. You do have the air of a warrior and a royalty at the same time.

[Her cheeks flare with a blush before she laughs a little.]

Thank ye for sayin' so. Aye, I was trained in archery an' sword fightin' since I was a wee lass.

...Archery, huh.

[ Actually, that does bring up a really important question. ]

Say, do you need a training partner for your archery? I've been kind of looking for one ever since I got here. Or maybe we can go on a hunt together if stationary practice isn't really your thing.

Well, tae be honest I've been contemplatin' settin' up an archery range, since I've promised so many lessons. [She gives a small shrug.] I thought it best tae gather them all in one place.

[Merida grins slyly.]

I do enjoy a good hunt myself though.

[ ...that's not a good look, both for his sanity and his physical wellness. ]

Well, then I suppose we should arrange a hunt when we're not busy with things, then.

[ YEAH. ]

If that's what ye want. [She tilts her head.] I'm pretty sure I'll be free after Yule.

Good, then I'll be looking forward to it, then!

[ Provided the war doesn't cut through it, but hey that's what planning's good for... ]
