[ She remembers that, even if she had no idea what they were doing until Achilles explained things. Part of her feels a little bad, but part of her thinks he could do better... and another part of her thinks it's hilarious. Sorry Ryuji. ]
A king needs a queen. Father's wasn't interested in me, but that's fine. I guess she didn't want to betray him more than she already had. [ Or maybe you're the problem, Mordred. She snorts, as if that's some great joke. ] One day, I'll find someone worthy of sharing the throne. Someone really strong. Just like with horses, it's an honour to tame troublesome women.
[ ... That is 100% something she's overheard. She says it way too easily to realize the real implications. ]
...Yeah, unfortunately. Kinda sucks, but I don't got much game when it comes down to it.
[Sometimes, he finds out, the more he learns about Mordred, the more she seems less like an Ann type and more like a Haru type and that absolutely fucking terrifies him. He half expects Mordred to come out with a comment about stepping on people just to watch them squirm.]
Dude, you know that it's not right to try and marry your dad's wife, right? Like. Seriously... [WHAT IS THIS CONVERSATION??? WHAT IS MORDRED???]
And don't say you're gonna tame a woman, that's like... the biggest goddamn turnoff you could possibly say to someone. [Look at him... giving advice on girls to Mordred. This is the reality he signed up for.]
Lead in with the whole 'I wanna make you my queen' sorta thing and I bet you'll get a good response.
Of course. But I did it to antagonize the king, not because I truly wished for her hand. Don't think of me as some pervert.
[ That. Might actually be worse?? Don't do that. ]
Anyway, what's wrong about that? It's just a saying... I wouldn't treat them poorly or anything. Even in a political marriage, there's no reason for me to do so. It's distasteful.
