[The fatigue and the feeling of unease from after Lancer woke up following his death on the circus floor hadn't gone away with time. If anything, he just felt even worse. In addition, his feet felt strangely hard and heavy, a feeling that progressed as the day dragged on. Trying to eat and drink, if only to taste strange new foods for this month's menu outright burned his mouth. At this point, he could only conclude something was very wrong.]

[However, as a Servant, he wasn't supposed to be vulnerable to human diseases. This narrowed the cause of his current conditon to either an effect of the Tower's experiment for the month, or the effect of some curse. He just had to figure out which one.]

does anyone else in this tower feel like shit
like, kinda sick
always tired
legs sorta heavy

Like who? Do I know them too?

[puppy_lancer]

well, like my uncle
you don't know him
but he was still a very wise king
and yet he was still wrong when he killed one of his knights after saying he forgave him

[chainsawn]

But that's weird, isn't it?

I mean.. you shouldn't forgive someone and then kill them all the same. If you want to kill them, then you shouldn't forgive them. If you want to forgive them, then you shouldn't kill them. Even I know that.

[puppy_lancer]

everyone knew he was wrong
he was angry
because that knight stole his fiancee
because he was angry
he did something very stupid and very wrong
even though he was very wise before that
and even wiser after that

[chainsawn]

[ .. oh, wait, that changes matters. ]

It's not right to steal a person who's in love with someone else.

[puppy_lancer]

i don't think the woman was in love with him
he just wanted to marry her because she was beautiful
and because he was king he could just say 'i'm gonna marry her' and everyone would consider her his woman
but she liked someone else better

[chainsawn]

.. That's weird. People marry each other since they love each other, right? Why else would they love each other, marriage without love is.. not marriage.

[puppy_lancer]

reason, i guess
not very good ones
which is why everyone supported what that knight did

[chainsawn]

Somehow it feels like everyone is just wrong in the story.

[puppy_lancer]

yeah i guess there's that too
