[ First time he has to use this damned phone and it's, of course, a voicemail message ]

Archer, get back to me when you can, it's important.

[boneofsword]

[Few moments later Archer calls back. He figures out it's something really important, since Caster doesn't use phone for idle chatter.]

What happened.

[futhark]

[ Caster's got no idea if Archer is back in the Temple already, or maybe hanging around the training grounds. Not keeping tabs on his shinki, and so on. But to be fair, he believes his Exemplar to be the first one to learn the news ]

There's been some new development. Heavens decided to assign me another shinki.

[ Surprise! You're a senpai now! ]

[boneofsword]

[That's ...not what he was expecting. Although Archer knows it's not Caster's fault, for such things happen on Heavens' whim.]

I see. Have you found them already?

[futhark]

Yes, all the introduction and everything. [ And naming, naming too ]

His name is Lancer. [ HA HA HA, he's not telling the other name though. That's what they should decide for themselves if they want to share or not. His voice then turns to a teasing tone ] You'll set a good example, yes?

[boneofsword]

Hmph. The Heavens surely find this amusing.

[Archer is getting sarcastic, because what else can he say? The irony of the situation is not lost on him.]

But of course.
