What kind of man goes around announcing his plans to siege somebody? Clearly it wasn't a siege planned on any of their current problems, since that would be good luck, and Xerxes found that just wasn't the case so far in this war. Clearly this would come up during the meeting. But he wouldn't bring it up yet. After all, he was more than sure he could fine some benefit from it in time. Meet up with them before leaving. [color=fff79a]"Archer, pass that man a note for me sometime."[/color] He whispered, gesturing to Hamel. [color=fff79a]"I'd like to speak to him sometime."[/color] Hamel had of course been one of the candidates for his interest. While he had settled on Ludwig, he had become concerned with the boy's ability to handle stress. It was clear even in private that a... Paranoia had begun to build. Not that he would mention it publicly of course. 

But, moving on to the Matou and the Einzbern. He held up a hand, waving the homonculus over, and took a step closer to Reiki. He couldn't have her walk all the way without attempting to meet her even half-way. [color=fff79a]"Well Ms. Reiki, I'm glad we can least come to a mutual understanding."[/color] He smiled, and they both shared a 'I know you know' moment. Yes, archer was not his servant, but it was this, a berserker, or coming without a servant. And the last two were clearly going to be problems. And if he had a spare servant around, why not use him? [color=fff79a]"I came to Fuyuki to save lives, and while I have failed myself on that promise in many ways, the deaths in the native district were meaningless, and I am happy to have even for a moment been able to help the people in need. Who we are in certain moments does not reflect who we are in all moments. I am sure we could find a great common ground. I seek only to save all the lives I can. I am sure you seek something similar."[/color] He didn't know everything about Reiki, but he was sure, that she sought to save lives as well. And this meeting was her chance to try and change the course of the war, much like him. 
[color=fff79a]"I hope I can work with you in the future, after the current enemy is dealt with."[/color]

[color=fff79a]"And you are the speaker for Miss Tohsaka, correct? I am surprised. I had not expected such a thing possible. Mostly because I expected the stresses of the war to force one to place certain aspects of their life on hold."[/color] So that's what they were doing the past few days... Honeymoons. Xerxes put on a smile, but inside he couldn't help but be disappointed. This was the power of the Tohsakas and Einzberns. The power to sit at home, and hope the war avoided them. Their presence here alone told him the mysterious stranger who entered and left was enough of a scare to bring them out looking for help. [color=fff79a]"I hope matters improve, and I will have to send a present to the newly married couple. It is a shame they couldn't come in person."[/color]

Xerxes turned to see Archer walking away, and before long he was witness to the... Pizza that was being carried. Well, he hadn't heard of it. But apparently it was really tasty. The recipe had already been recorded for his own uses. He'd probably bring it back to Persia if he enjoyed it. The people of Persia were a culture that took in all others. And soon, they would be masters of pizza as well.

Opening the box, he was surprised by just how different it smelled than the food he usually ate. [color=fff79a]"This is supposed to be a food from my servant's homeland. He calls it pizza. I promise each of you, on my life this is a safe meal."[/color] And to prove his point, he took the first slice, placing it on a plate, and then bringing it to his mouth. Chomping down, and pausing as grease dribbled down his chin. [color=fff79a]"Archer... The birds did bring napkins, right?"[/color]
