Because This Will Surely End Well... [Video]

[oathshackledbird]

[Lancer is slowly getting better at this network thing, though he still doesn't know how to do anything fancy with it and doesn't really like it.  He would much rather be talking to people face to face, but he knows in this case, that is just not a feasible option.  Not if he wants to find what he's looking for in an acceptable amount of time.

The face that greats the network this afternoon is somewhat pale and uncertain, though very focused on his task.]

Forgive my intrusion, but I was wondering if I could ask for some assistance from the residents here.  After last week's experiment, I would like to try and find a few things to gift to others.  I arrived shortly before the experiment started and so, I'm afraid I don't really know where to start looking for these things.

Specifically what I'm looking for are things related to tea and serving it, but I'm open to other suggestions if you have them.  I don't have a whole lot since I'm new, but I am a skilled fighter among other things and very willing to offer my services in trade for any assistance I receive.

I thank you all in advance for your help.  It is greatly appreciated.

(OOC:  This post is open to anyone who would actually like to help Lancer with his task, but also to people whose characters would like to troll, hurt, or otherwise take advantage of this poor sap who apparently still hasn't learned his lesson about being so trusting.)

Lady Lambdadelta, it is, but I'm sorry. I can't seem to remember meeting you before this.

[His face suddenly pales as a horrible thought crosses his mind.]

We didn't meet during the experiment, did we? I'm afraid that while I remember most of last week, I do have several blank spots. If so, please let me apologize for anything I might have said to you. I was really not myself then.

Nope, nothing like that, don't worry, everyone knows that stuff is all their fault.

See, I just like to help people who work hard. I always have, that's how certainty works.

[Lancer shakes his head, expression saddening. No, not everyone knew that or if they knew they didn't care. The dark Saber didn't seem to anyway.]

Certainty? Did you not say earlier you were the Witch of Certainty? What does that mean?

[He pause, face suddenly paling.]

Are you a friend of the girl who calls herself the Endless Witch?

[stalemates]

I sponsored that kid, but I wouldn't exactly say we're friends. It was a bad decision.

[She was the one to give Eva her status as a witch, but in the end it was a waste of effort, she didn't do what Lambda had planned.]

But, you know, kind of like fate and stuff. You can say for sure that if you work hard, you'll be rewarded for it, right? I can make that happen no problem. If I say something will happen, it's certain that it will. Get it?

[oathshackledbird]

[Lancer nods. That makes sense. This girl seems very kind and helpful, the complete opposite of the other who he had met.]

She and I ran into each other when I first arrived. It wasn't a...good meeting.

In any event, that all does make sense. I am very invested in making things up those I hurt during the experiment even if it wasn't technically my fault. I know a gift like this is only a very small step toward doing so, but it is a place to start.

[stalemates]

That's not surprising, she's kind of a brat. Don't worry about it, kids should behave.

Yep, see, that's the kind of stuff I like to help with! You're doing a good thing, so you deserve a little assistance.

[oathshackledbird]

You have my deepest gratitude, Lady Lambdadelta.

[He bows to her the best he can over the video feed.]

I realize you say you do this to help those that work hard, but is there anything I can do to repay you? Anything at all?

[stalemates]

Maybe later, but I'm good for now. Either way, it's just a small favour, so it's no big deal.

[oathshackledbird]

As you wish, Lady, but if you change your mind, please let me know.

[He bows toward the camera.]

And thank you once again. This is a great help to me.
