Inconsequence
by SMYGO4EVA
Saber had always wondered what it was like to embrace each day to the fullest. She saw that Irisviel, the woman she swore to protect, made sure to live as if there was no tomorrow.
Because of who she was, a Servant of the Holy Grail War, she knew all too well.
Because of who Irisviel was, Saber understood all too well.
And yet, as they both walked through the sights of this nameless world, the knight and the Einzbern woman could at least pretend. They pushed the reality that their days were numbered to the side, but for a while. Irisviel let her hand rest on top of Saber's, winter cloaks curled lightly around them.
They could pretend, at least this once.
Even as Saber knew this wasn't to be forever, that this all could be shattered at any moment. As night soon fell, as everyone retired to their separate quarters, Saber let Irisviel take her into the darkened bedroom, her hand squeezing hers in response.
In this space that was theirs, they could pretend that there was nothing beyond their wishes and desires. Irisviel let her thighs rest against the sides of Saber's waist, her dress cascading down to reveal her pale, peach-soft, naked body. Saber had only a moment to stare, and she basked in such a sight as her up Irisviel's stomach, to her chest, to her full breasts. Irisviel leaned down and pressed herself against Saber, shaking, yearning, wanting more of the knight's touch.
Flustered, such heat twisting inside her, Saber obliged Irisviel only these moments. They could at least pretend their meetings were of little inconsequence, to bay reality just a little longer.
