Interacting with: Disguised Man (Saber) [@vancexentan], Amina [@Phase Transit][/center]

As the hand landed on his shoulder, James turned his head enough that he could look at the man in the trench coat out of the corner of his eyes but didn't turn around. He observed the man, his eyes searching for every detail he could make out... although he was faintly aware of something blocking off anything beyond physical. Tall. Confident, almost 'knightly' stature. Anachronistic mannerisms. A Servant, maybe? 

[color=dimgray]"Honour is a tool, nothing more, and one that I have no need for. I care little for your sentiment, but I'm not stupid. I am extremely outnumbered by enough magi to potentially level this city, without the weaponry to fight them. I do not plan to start anything but these..."[/color] He gestured to where his handguns were hidden. [color=dimgray]"...are because I don't trust the other masters or the church and I'd rather have something to fight with if needed."[/color]

He kept his tone level and cold as he spoke before he turned his head back and walked inside, uncaring of the man's response. He glanced at his partner for a moment as they walked, unsure as to how to approach the subject. While it wasn't the first time they had partnered together, They had never been involved in something this vast. Dismissing the thought for now, he turned his attention to the large hall in front of him. Unnoticed by any of the other masters, the pair had arrived to catch the tail-end of the Overseer's speech along with the following discussions between the masters. Raising an eyebrow at the concept of the allying and forming teams, he turned his head to where Amina was standing. He kept his voice low, to avoid catching anyone's attention, but loud enough that she could hear him clearly.

[color=dimgray]"14 Master/Servant pairs. Meaning 12 potential enemy servants and at least that many human enemies, maybe more. While forming teams would definitely make it easier to reduce enemy numbers, it can also work against us should they stab us in the back. I'm not a fan of those odds, especially with two Assassins running around, So I think a small team is out best option, may be 3 or 4, but It's your call."[/color]
