[ Tristan nods and tries to flatten himself against the safe wall as best he can.
He may not be completely familiar with Galatine but he's seen it in action enough to know to stay out of the way. And thank goodness a full on noble phantasm wasn't used because there is definitely not enough room for that.
It's still an extremely extra way to get out of a booth though.
But Tristan doesn't need to be told twice to start taking off and escaping from the mess they've just made. ]
[Gawain can be a man of excessive force, but even he knows when to tone it down. A full Galatine blast would probably result in more than a little collateral damage and that's not knightly at all.
Neither is just running past the shouting attendants, far too fast to catch thankfully.]
Haha, if anyone ever asks about this, we need to make it sound better!
[Gawain laughs actually, even though he's going to feel a littly guilty later on.]
Pretty well. I fought a pegasus and nearly died, but otherwise, there are few complaints to be had.
And what of you? You seem to be in good health, but I have never been able to truly tell.
[Not a jab, just a simple truth. Tristan was always the odd one, even among the collection of oddities that was the Round Table. So melancholy that it was a general state, so you had to learn what was just was grief and what was Tristan being Tristan.]
[ But it's good he survived, he supposes?! Why would he need to fight a pegasus...
Shaking his head, he decides to move on from that for the time being. It's true, he's 100% sad all the time, but he seems to be an okay level of sad at the moment. ]
I am well enough. It's a little troubling to be here, but nothing terrible has happened so far.
[Yes it is probably best to move on from Gawain's own adventures, because well they are his own. And not really any more absurd than some of what he'd done when he was alive.]
...I am glad to hear it. But I would ask now what it is you plan to do in this place, other than follow Master. I for one, plan to enjoy myself for once.
[Maybe get to the bottom of the reason behind the whole mess they're all in, but it won't hurt to take a little vacation, will it? Maybe?]
[ That's a fair point. Tristan shouldn't even be surprised. ]
Do ...?
[ Ah, you mean there's more to do than follow Master? Interesting. To hear that Gawain is going to make a vacation out of it is interesting though. Can he condone the act of slacking... ]
I will remain diligent. And learn what I can about this place.
[It is a bit strange of him to say, that much is true. Gawain's as serious as any of them, probably even more so. But there is only so much he can do in this place so he might as well look to the positive side of being stuck spinning his wheels.]
That is very like you, though I am sure that you are the one most likely to make headway.
[Tristan was sharper than people gave him credit for.]
We should try to meet up regularly then, to exchange information. Or even just use those... voice mail things as they are called.
no subject
Do you think the others are here as well?
[ The Knights of the Round Table, that is. And their king too, but that's less implied as the former. ]
It will let us out of the booth, won't it?
no subject
[He hasn't yet run into Mordred, or else he might be a little more reserved on that account.]
I think it shall.
[Gawain pushed at the door, which didn't budge. He frowned, shaking his head.]
Unless it is stuck...?
no subject
[ Definitely would have mentioned Mordred by now.
He frowns though as the door doesn't really budge. ]
Well, let me try.
[ As if Gawain doesn't have the strength. But anyway, he gives it a jiggle and it doesn't budge there either. Maybe there's a waiting period. ]
no subject
[Lancelot would probably have been okay. Right at home even.
Gawain grimaces at it and then knocks, calling out to the person who shoved them in. Nothing though.]
...Don't tell me I have to break down another door.
[Percival isn't here to pay this time.]
no subject
[ Maybe Gawain is ill suited too...squint.
But Lancelot definitely would be okay here.
Tristan looks at the door, frowning.
How on earth are you supposed to open it? ]
You might as well. If there's no other way.
no subject
[Gawain may or may not handle it. Such things can go either way with him.
But after a moment, Gawain sighs and draws out his sword.]
...Alright, step back then friend. And as dishonorable as it is, be prepared to run once we are free.
[Can it really be called dishonorable when the door was broken and Gawain had to save them?]
no subject
[ Nevermind that Tristan is prone to tragedy. It's fine.
Tristan moves himself back as far as he can, watching Gawain with his sword.
They must do what they have to to survive, that's what Tristan will tell himself. ]
I am ready.
no subject
[He is glad for Tristan's understanding. He knows what must be done, as any knight should.
But Gawain takes and activates Galatine and doesn't even hesitate to strike.
It's not an actual noble phantasm blasting forth of course. That would be silly.
It's more like the equivalent of taking a giant welding torch and slicing the door clean open.
Gawain doesn't hesitate or wait for anyone to cry out. It's time to run.]
Let's go!

no subject
And Tristan wastes no time in running past the attendants either.
They can't be to blame for that faulty booth! ]
Rather than making it sound any special way, I'd rather pretend it didn't happen.
no subject
And even if they somehow were, there really aren't any unfun party poopers here to say otherwise.
And what Master doesn't know won't hurt her.]
Then we can do that. In face, it already didn't!
[Gawain really, really doesn't want to dwell on any knight's preferences.]
no subject
But yes. Perhaps they have gotten away with this small crime.
Very small crime. Hardly even a crime at all. It was self defense.
They were going to run out of oxygen! (Even though Servants probably don't need that...) ]
Of course. This is the first time we're meeting. Here in this place.
[ Yeah I mean they might come in handy, but for now... let us ignore. ]
no subject
And they can begin to slow down now, Gawain panting happily, though he's still exhilarated. Which is totally unbecoming.]
Yes of course. Well met, Sir Tristan.
[Yes, that info will be tucked away in a place in Gawain's mind that he will never have to access hopefully.]
no subject
Tristan is equally out of breath, grateful to be able to slow down and worry less now. ]
Yes. Well met, Sir Gawain. How have you fared?
[ Aside from the thing that they are ignoring right now. ]
no subject

no subject
It's just that he personally feels guilty about trying to rest. ]
Thank you for saying so.
[ He doesn't know if he agrees, but!! He appreciates it. ]
Yes, I would like that too. A meeting or a ... voice mail. Just so I know you are staying out of trouble of course.
no subject
Maybe one day he can get Tristan in on it.]
And I never get in trouble Tristan. It just finds me sometimes.
[Like that wonderful Seraph adventure coming in the future.]
no subject
He seems amused at least, for a second, instead of moping. ]
Of course. That's how it is.
[ That's how it is for all of Camelot. ]
no subject
Yes that it is. No flaw on my part at all.
[And the Round Table suffers from that disease most of all.]
no subject
Certainly not. Well then, should we check up on one another soon?
