[closed] between heaven and earth, there is only one king.
CHARACTERS: Gilgamesh and Pearl
DATE: After Pearl's conversation with Archer at the winter festivities.
WARNINGS: To be determined. But probably discussion of some pretty serious topics.
SUMMARY: Something's amiss with the Master. Gilgamesh gives up the truth.
[It has barely been more than a few months since he departed Fuyuki and so lost his bond with Kirei; therefore, he still knows it well, the connection between Master and Servant, can sense disturbances in thoughts. Uncertainty present where there should not be. Something has happened, Gilgamesh deduces, it must be dealt with at once. He cannot afford to lose the contract. Pearl was an asset. Pearl was necessary for the road ahead. Pearl was everything.
So rather than wait for summons, this time Gilgamesh approaches Pearl himself. He does not manifest quite yet but instead floats around her as a familiar sphere of light, before settling in front of her face and reaching into her mind:]
Master. [He addresses her as such to catch her attention.] What troubles you? There is unease within your heart. Speak to me.
[I will undo it. I will unmake them, whoever did this. Those sentiments he keeps private, even as he seethes. It's the only possible explanation: someone interfered.]
