[ Oh. That wasn't what she was expecting. Huh. Sakura bites her lip, thinking. ]
I don't know how much of my advice will be useful, but I'll tell you what I can. I suppose one thing to keep in mind is that traditional summoning of Servants, the old way, not through Chaldea, or the system he knows...is that having a physical catalyst isn't all that draws your Servant to you. I summoned Rider because we were similar in temperament, and the things we've gone through make us sympathetic to each other. It's a very...intrinsic kind of link. The physical catalyst we had for her wasn't the best one, so it's more due to our link that she came to me in the first place. So that's where my advice will be coming from.
[ and also she ate saber ]
If you want to try to understand him better...hm. Was there anything specific you had in mind?
I don't know, really. I expected like...maybe a friendship? Normally a summoning like this involves fights to the death, so I figured anyone paired up for that reason would be friendly with each other. Ruler-san is polite, but I wouldn't exactly call him a friend.
That can happen. Maybe it's just a clashing of personalities? [ she hums in thought ] He also could just be more attached to his old master through no fault of your own.
Um...have you tried approaching him casually? Just as a friend, like you do with the rest of us?

I...not really? But I also don't approach people often, usually they come to me.
no subject
Oh, um.
[ .... ]
Well, you could try that? Maybe he sees you as a little unapproachable.
no subject
[Whoops.]
You're right. I'll try approaching him.

JUST...USUALLY ABOUT BUSINESS...]
I will. Thanks, Sakura-san.

Um, on another note...I did want to talk about that vision.
How much of it do you remember? Did you see everything I did?
