A wish.
[ The Holy Grail. He does not recall exactly what it is, but from what he gathers from the brief memory with the "King of Heroes," it is something to wish upon. And Kei's other self would allow that man to "wish for death." What does that mean? No, he understands it simply, but there is more said and unsaid than he can unravel. ]
With all this business going on, some frivolousness ponderings might be an enjoyable distraction.
Well, then. If you could wish for anything, what would it be? [ A pause. Kei thinks of sending it like that yet he feels that may be too telling. Too telling of what? He's uncertain, but adds more to cover up his uncertainty. ] Though, with Valentine's Day is coming, most are thinking of just wishing for someone to spend that day with, hm? :)

It sounds like it would be a very bloody ritual.

The world outside this Holy Grail War isn't supposed to know about it.
[ It is a kind and true statement, but it isn't the whole truth. He would rather bring up the fact that no one is actually stopping the murder of innocents. It merely is that it should not build to the point that the public is aware and thrown into a frenzy. All the magic is to be contained and hidden rather than brandished for all to see. So long as it is quiet and the body count low, the matter will be cleaned up. ]

Because then it is true, isn't it...? What she dreaded to know. Kei is likely from the world of her past self.]
Oh... that's hardly a War, or at least not how I'd imagine it. But I'm glad the scale is so small. Less people to get hurt that way.

I'm very much against violence. I see no reason for it, and have a strong distaste for allowing things to dissolve into a frenzy. Especially if uninvolved parties get dragged into it. As such, this Holy Grail War is troubling to me.
But it is not anything for you to worry about, Sakura. While it is something that involves me, it isn't anything that can affect us. At best, it is just listening to a long-winded topic from myself on something that means very little to our lives as a whole.
Like if I were to talk about mapo tofu to you for an hour. Mildly educational but worthless.

Or I sincerely hope not. Some things are best left undiscovered, I think.

Yes, I've never been a particularly curious person. And I would not want to see what would happen if the Holy Grail were to manifest in this world. I can only think it would be far more chaotic than what this app is already allowing us to witness. So it's best to just leave it as idle discussion than anything solid and real.
no subject
Not that you'd want to see the Holy Grail brought here, of course, but you always ask good questions.
no subject
I am not curious about myself. I've lived with myself long enough that I stopped asking questions. I think that is best. But for others, everyone else is still growing and can become better than what they were.

[That's noble, she thinks -- like a teacher, almost.]
