Current Client: Shirou Kotomine Part II
Irisviel: I don't even know who's who anymore. Whadya want?
Shirou: I don't want anything. Some stupid redheaded kid made me come back here.
Irisviel: What for?
Shirou: He said my hair was weird. But, more importantly, he wanted you to figure out why there were suddenly two Archers.
Irisviel: I don't understand.
Shirou: I don't either. I mean, there were always two Archers.
Irisviel: There were? Oh, wait, you mean Gilgamesh.
Shirou: No, I don't.
Irisviel: Um, yeah... sure.
Shirou: Look, everyone seems to think I'm the same person as this 'EMIYA' Servant. I'm not, all right?
Irisviel: So that means you're not my son, then. Shirou Emiya.
Shirou: I just said I wasn't –
Irisviel: I'll just take that as a yes. Did you say your surname was Kotomine?
Shirou: Twenty-eight chapters ago, yes.
Irisviel: So you're, what, Kirei's little brother?
Shirou: I'm his older brother. And I'm adopted. Pretty sure I told you that, too.
Irisviel: But you're a teenager.
Shirou: I have age inertia.
Irisviel:...
Shirou: That means I get older but don't age.
Irisviel: Oh. Uh, what were we talking about again?
Shirou: I'm not your kid, and I'm not Archer or EMIYA or whatever he calls himself.
Irisviel: Uh-huh...
Shirou: You don't believe me.
Irisviel: At least have the courtesy to use a question mark.
Shirou: You won't believe me until you see all of us together, right?
Irisviel: Yeah, that's about right.
Shirou: Thought so.
Irisviel: I've got a feeling that will happen soon.
In five chapters, to be precise.
