[scouting IS important but hearing Gawain tell him that is a surprise. he was under the impression that he was a muscle-through kind of guy. with Leo as his Master, he always knew he would lose to the two. while Dan had the strategy and wouldn't lose to Leo when it came to wit and preparation and experience, Gawain definitely had Robin beat on Servant abilities. especially if Dan made him fight fair and square.]
I wonder if it's me you're scouting or the scientists, though.
[Everyone has a dark streak sadly. And knights are not always the same as in the fairy tales.
Dan Blackmore was someone Gawain would have liked to have faced if possible. He knows that Leo would have grown from the experience, though Gawain would still have ended it as quickly as possible. He knows how to use tactics, but the knight's greatest asset has always been brute force. Destroy a man before he tricked you and all those plots ceased to matter.]
Maybe it is a little of both. Though only my enemies have anything to worry about.

Of course we are and I would keep my word, that is for sure. As long as it doesn't go against Master or the King, I follow what I say.
[For better and worse.
And ouch.]
Curious to see what is going on with the samples. Also, maybe it wouldn't be bad to see how you work.
no subject
what a Knight-like answer.]
How I work? It's not noble by any measure. You probably won't like it. If you're gonna get all chivalrous on me, don't come with.

[Considering some of the people who are in Chaldea, he needs to begin to learn to deal with things.]
But you have my word, I shall not interfere.
[Maybe he'll regret that though.]
no subject
though he had no idea he was interested in seeing back-alley deals.]
Preparing for the worst, huh? Alright.
[you're not as dumb as you seem, Gawain.]
You seemed pretty uptight standing at Leo's side all the time. I didn't think you'd be curious about my line of work.
no subject
And it's not like he has anything better to do than witness shady things right now. You can only whack so many weeds.]
Scouting is important.
[Simple and dumb and two very different things.]
What Leo needed of me is different than what Ritsuka needs of me and what I need on my own.

Really now?
