In the span of time that Mordred would be surprised by Bunbuku’s existence, Elise would already be working on getting to know her Servant as best she was able, examining her status in detail through their magic circuit connection. [color=fdc68a][b]"You’re surprisingly tough for a Caster…and your luck is through the roof,"[/b][/color] she noted. 

"[color=6B573B][b]I’m just that damn awesome,[/b][/color]" Bunbuku says, clicking her kiseru’s flint with a smirk. "[color=6B573B][b]Bestower of Eight Virtue, I can even dodge Gae Bolg and Zabaniya. That’s just how hype I am. You can bow, or kneel. Doesn’t matter.[/b][/color]"

[color=fdc68a][b]"Got it, but let’s hope you don’t go up against stuff like that to begin with,"[/b][/color] Elise said, not stopping as she took notes and took a knee, asking: [color=fdc68a][b]"So how do you fight exactly? Scalding hot water thrown via magecraft? Physical attacks delivered via your Mana Burst skills?"[/b][/color]

"[color=6B573B][b]This pipe. This gourd. And, deez nuts,[/b][/color]" Bunbuku smirked.

Elise visibly cringed at that last statement.

"[color=6B573B][b]Oh, c’mon, Master, smile a little - a lot - and often,[/b][/color]" Bunbuku says, pulling Elise’s cheeks up.

Elise sighed as her cheeks were tugged. [color=fdc68a][b]"I guess. Either way, you seem dependable enough, even if you’re about as serious as a clown in a pie factory."[/b][/color]

"[color=6B573B][b]Pie? Lame,[/b][/color]" Bunbuku says. "[color=6B573B][b]Dependability is a two-way, though, Master, so you better hold up your end of the highway.[/b][/color]"

[color=fdc68a][b]"Y’know what, that’s fair,"[/b][/color] Elise said, getting up. [color=fdc68a][b]"As a magus, my expertise is in potion-making. I may not have a lot of directly useful spells in combat, but I do have non-toxic potions that should work even on a Servant. Healing, Mana Infusion, Strengthening…I even have a poison that drives enemies a little insane."[/b][/color] Putting a hand into the pouch hanging off her side with her drinking horn attached, she would pull out small ampoule bottles, marked and colored. [color=fdc68a][b]"I also make the best wine you’ll ever drink, so at some point, I’ll age some sake for us to party with."[/b][/color]

"[color=6B573B][b]Oh, that sounds like it would make for a wonderful sweetener,[/b][/color]" Bunbuku says.

[color=fdc68a][b]"I know, right!?"[/b][/color] Elise said, glad SOMEONE appreciated good drinks around here.

Afterwards, Elise would inform Leon of their readiness.
