[b]~[/b][i][color=00aeef]Servant[/color][/i][b]~[/b] Rider grunted lightly upon hearing Corbet's nervous words spoken to him and shook his head a little bit. With one eye closed, another opened, and his legs kicked up as he leaned in his chair, he looked over at his Master. [color=00aeef]"This is how the Grail War goes. If you think this is ugly, you ain't seen nothing yet."[/color] Despite his nonchalant tone and apparent lack of care assigned to the situation, he was truly angry being where he was. He could feel the strain being put on the Grail trying to hold him here. As well as being quite irked watching the little smarmy prick trying to make a display of his Servant. The toothpick that had been swishing back and forth between Rider's teeth snapped in half in a spectacular way for a tiny bit of wood. He removed the other half of the toothpick from the inside of his mouth and set it in his pocket. He quickly looked back at his Master again, deciding that even though he wasn't exactly the god of a Master that Rider was expecting he was definitely better than the git that was making a fool of himself. [b]~[/b][i][color=f9ad81]Master[/color][/i][b]~[/b] Though the very weirdly familiar (and somewhat clingy) way that the familiar was interacting with him somewhat confused Baraka, he decided that no actual harm was being done. He made his mind up to just play along with what she was saying until it was of any immediate threat to him or anyone else. He nodded calmly as he listened to her worry about the potential dangers of being so nonchalant in the presence of the enemy. [color=f9ad81]"Whilst I understand what you're saying, I'm completely aware of how dangerous it could be to simply laze about near the enemy. But I'm more worried about 'The God Among Men' up there. He seems to be quite unpredictable, and could possibly kill us both with little to no provocation."[/color] He pulled a book out from a pouch on his waist and began to idly flip between the pages to occupy himself as he waited for all of the rabble to settle themselves around him. As he did so, he began to ponder about what he could tell from what he saw looking at the other Servants and Masters. He was able to make a few conclusions here and there, but found that for the most part he couldn't gather much from just watching and observing. [color=f9ad81]"The best course of action might be to conduct some reconnaissance. Perhaps you could learn something about the enemy by infiltrating them."[/color] Baraka lightly whispered to his partner, eyes still trained on his book.
