"The sheer scale of the architecture of the modern world is certainly something to be impressed by, but it feels like it lacks something...", Shirou started.
"It lacks uniqueness", continued Assassin, "It lacks the touch of artisans and the feeling that a great amount of time and care went into each every part of it. All of the buildings here look the same, and repetitive architecture is among the worst kind", she said with a disdainful scoff.
"It does have a certain lack of heart to it, does it not?"
"Indeed, though I suppose humanity must have to settle with what they have. They no longer carry with them the strength they once did. "
"But are you and I both not also humans? And if that is truly the case, then is it not merely up to us to save those who cannot save themselves?"
"Of course".
Proudly, I shoved out my hand, a color changing ring upon it. "A ring that can predict the mood of it's wearer and change its color to match. Such an honest thing, for a cheap price. What other wonders await us here I can only begin to fathom!"
Shirou could not surpress a chuckle at the sight.
"I suppose the Grail really does not give us information about modern pop culture, huh, Caster? That's called a mood ring. It's something people wore a lot some forty years ago. The glass "stone" is full of liquid crystal, which changes color based on body heat. It's not exactly magic, you know?"
"How do you know this, Shirou? Did you not just say that us Servants are not given knowledge of petty baubles?"
"Well, unlike the two of you, I've been incarnated for quite a while, as you already know. It's incredible how much free time I had even while I was planning and searching for clues as to the whereabouts of the Grail. I saw quite a few people my age wear those things."
"But if you are amazed by so little, Caster, then I don't think you, or indeed I, will be bored", he continued. Truth be told, no matter how forward-minded Shirou was, Caster's overt reactions to everything was quite entertaining.
Assassin emitted a short scoff at the sight. Her business-minded self could not be said to be amused by Caster's antics. Something about him was entirely off to her. Perhaps it was the lack of ability to control him? Or that he was gaining the attentions of their Master more than her. Not that she particularly cared about the latter, or so she thought.
