[ Why, yes. Gilgamesh just actually facepalmed. The world may explode. ]

I can't believe I'm the one saying this, but for Lugalbanda's sake, open your mind. This is not wailing. It is a unique form of singing in some foreign language. Going to shows like this has been a pastime for the higher classed mongrels for many years.

[ Actually, no. He doesn't like it either. HE JUST PRETENDS TO BECAUSE HE'S AWESOME LIKE THAT OKAY. ]

If it sounds like a duck and looks like a duck, then it must be a witch duck. It is a blessing that I am not a king in modern times then, for I would have outlawed such acts and labeled the person who invented them as touched in the head.

[king_of_heroes]

Hoh. To think you could be such a tyrant. I have to say I'm rather impressed. And what if your people complained, saying they actually enjoyed such music?

[ex_cashcow493]

[ HE JUST HAD TO ASK THAT. ]

Then... then they can remain. So long as the good people of Britain were happy.

[king_of_heroes]

[ Saaaaaaber.

Okay, he doesn't really make this easy but still. Why is teasing her so much fun? ]

So, even though you are their king, you would let your people rule you.

[ex_cashcow493]

Should the price of their happiness be a headache I can nurse, then so be it. I do not allow them to rule me, but I consider their thoughts and wishes above my own. That is what it means to be a king, Gilgamesh.

[king_of_heroes]

I'm afraid that is where you are wrong, Arturia. A king should act as a God on Earth, influencing his people's daily lives by setting them on the right path. A path that will protect them from things that would be damaging to one's society. That was how I ruled, and that is why Uruk stood as one of the first advanced cities. So many things were birthed there, even many years after my reign had ended. Can you say that about your own kingdom?

[ex_cashcow493]

I am proud of the good people within my kingdom, Gilgamesh.

[ At least her kingdom is still sort of around with the same name. ]

[king_of_heroes]

The mongrels themselves really aren't what you should be proud of. It's their creativity. What they contribute to the world. What they've done to try and better the world.

[ex_cashcow493]

I cannot be proud of both?

[ She's ignoring the opera now in favor of this conversation, Gilgamesh having her full attention. ]

[king_of_heroes]

[ Pretty much goes without saying he's done the same by this point. ]

Well, I suppose...

[ex_cashcow493]

[ The rare time they are devoted to each other. It'll pass soon enough. ]

For without them, such things would cease to exist. Yes, I think I understand you a bit better now.

[ ANOTHER RANK UP?? ]

[king_of_heroes]

[ Without the creepy voice-overs, even! ]

Ha. I'm surprised it's taken you this long, Arturia. I've understood you from the first time I laid my eyes on you.

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Sudden embarrassment is go! ]

Y-You have, Gilgamesh? Then tell me what it is you understand.

[king_of_heroes]

[ Ooooh boy, a perfect trolling opportunity? Why, yes. Yes it is.

And yet... ]

...You are stubborn beyond belief. You are so set in your ideals of duty and honor that you've forgotten what you truly are. I've read your legend, as... oddly inaccurate as some of it may seem. You have never once lived for yourself, only for others. Even when you have been given freedom, you still choose duty before yourself. For some reason, I find that both admirable and irritating.
