[ After what they talked about...yes definitely different. Even if Saber is still unsure on where things stand. Thank Archer for giving her 0 help on that front. ]
[ Archer is absolutely no help whatsoever. Though if she wants to, Rin has been known to be more honest when she's using text. It's why she said please!! ]
It isn't something I'll enjoy doing, but leaving it to others to organize seems uncouth. The gift is from me so I should be the one to coordinate it. That means I have no choice other than to appear there.
[ Rin really really hates large organizations and noisy events, yet she keeps going. ]
I don't ?? There's only a few days until it happens.
I could always take the initiative, but since I held it off for so long everyone that I would go with must be spoken for. That's what I get for being a slouch in this matter.
There's nothing wrong with a girl showing up by herself.
I would be happy if you were to attend with me. If you have not been asked yet.
[ She just...assumed Archer would ask her? And she thought she shouldn't get involved, but hey Archer refused to talk to Saber about any of this so it's his fault?? ]
[ Saber, Saber... that's your problem. Relying on Archer to do things of this nature will only result in disappointment. ]
No one's asked me, but you want me to go with you ?? Isn't that a bit odd ??
It's strange, but I'd be happy to. If you're not upset with me for pointing out how weird it is.
I promise I won't get jealous if you spend time with the others, but I'm not a social butterfly. Sometimes I feel as if I'm kind of a downer when it comes to these big events.
[ She would, except she's not bothered by Saber's gender in the slightest save for the fact she was King Arthur. That still takes some getting used to. ]
Are you asking to escort me as a knight or as my date ??
[ Saber's been forgetting to use her emoticons, this is exactly what Athena warned her of. If she doesn't use any people might think she's too stiff!! ]
I do not as out of pity. I ask because I wish to spend the night with you.
I'm told I don't pay enough attention to these things. So tell me what I can do to make up for it.
[ At least she's willing to try. ]We could go shopping together to get matching outfits? We'll have to get something picked out for Archer as well or else he won't dress up.

I think you simply do not want to try to ask someone nicely.
But I believe you have the skill.
no subject
If there's anyone I'd like to be nice to, it's you.
no subject
[ Dammit. She just outsmarted her, didn't she? Saber isn't sure how she can argue against that, but she's sure she just got outsmarted. ]
I have seen you be nice to me on many occasions before.
no subject
So I'm having a bit of trouble !!
Things are different now, aren't they ??
I'll try for you.
Could you PLEASE help me with this, Saber ??
no subject
[ After what they talked about...yes definitely different. Even if Saber is still unsure on where things stand. Thank Archer for giving her 0 help on that front. ]
If you need help then I will help you, Rin. :)
no subject
I knew I could count on you, Saber (ɔˆ ³(ˆ⌣ˆc)
no subject
[ It can't be helped. He's just a giant stick in the mud.
But moving on... after they discuss the plans for Saber to contact other people and what she should be asking them to do she asks: ]
I take it you are planning on attending Winter Ball then?
no subject
The gift is from me so I should be the one to coordinate it.

[ Rin really really hates large organizations and noisy events, yet she keeps going. ]
no subject
Will you be accompanying anyone?
no subject
Not that I'm aware of.
I thought I would have been asked out by now, but maybe I'm not as popular as I thought I am.
I'll have to change that.
Maybe I can dig into someone's Cerevice and find nudes they've taken.
no subject
But maybe she's just not sure how to ask properly, and text doesn't seem the best way. ]
You do not need to go to such lengths to find someone willing to accompany you, Rin.

no subject
I am a knight and you a woman, I do not see why it would be strange.
Unless you say such because you are my Master.
[ Remind Saber she's a woman, go ahead, do it. ]
I would not have asked if I did not wish to be with you.
I am sure you will be fine there.
no subject
Are you asking to escort me as a knight or as my date ??
no subject
[ She wants to say both but...this feels better as an answer here. ]
no subject
I was under the impression initially that you were asking because you felt a responsibility to do so as my Servant.
I don't need any pity dates.
So that's why it would have been weird.
If this is something you want to do, then I'll go with you.
[ She's still a bit nervous about it judging from the stiffness in her words, but she's really happy at the same time. ]
no subject
I do not as out of pity. I ask because I wish to spend the night with you.
no subject
Then we'll attend the ball together.
As a couple.
That seems fair, doesn't it ??
It feels as if I don't spend enough time with you.
Do you get lonely because of me ??
no subject
[ Because she will be going to a ball, with Rin. And Rin will be dressed up. And they can dance together, something Saber can do well. ]
There are times I would wish to see you more alone, but I understand you have important things as well.
[ Let's just say that makes sense?? ]
no subject
So tell me what I can do to make up for it.
[ At least she's willing to try. ] We could go shopping together to get matching outfits?
We'll have to get something picked out for Archer as well or else he won't dress up.
no subject
[ This is just the Saber way, she doesn't want to be a bother to Rin... Even if she'd definitely like to spend more time together. ]
Would you rather I wear a tuxedo or suit so that you may wear a dress?
[ Did she have to bring up that guyyy? ]
If you wish. I imagine he will wish to dance with you as well.
no subject
He'll just want to come along to supervise and make sure that no harm comes to either of us.
You can wear whatever you want to wear, Saber.
If you want to wear a dress, I can fashion a suit myself.
[ Things Saber probably couldn't live with: the sight of Rin in a tuxedo. ]
no subject
You can trust that I will protect you even at the ball.
[ She doesn't have Archer's special eyes, but she's got her sixth sense!!
And no, no, Rin, you're clearly the girl between the two of them!!
clearly?]I believe you would look beautiful in a dress.
