[ 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. ]

...hm. Well, I suppose a saber that's built something like an epee would work, as sabers are the first thing I think of when I think of an elegant sword... but epee tend to be much more solid. I was rapped over the fingers once when I was attempting it, and it hurt for months afterward...

Ah, were you a fencer of some sort?

[ The suggestions were noted, those kind of sword would definitely fit Tohsaka's image, and with all these suggestions, it seems that he has his work cut out for him.

He just needs to find an exact one to deliver to Tohsaka by Christmas. ]

Well... I don't know if I could even say that, honestly. It was something I attempted when I was younger, but after I tried the different styles and the novelty wore off, I didn't care much for it.

[It wasn't that he was bad at it, but... well, he had a preference for more sedate hobbies.]

Ah, well, it's unfortunate, but I suppose it can't be helped.

[ Still... ]

Thanks for your input, though, it really helped in the decision making process at the very least.

Ah, it's nothing. Like I said, I do feel as though they're very aesthetically appealing... and really, you can put some very nice trim on the hilt and the guards. That's probably the aspect that drew me to giving them a go the most.
