[k] @Da Vinci We're waaay more durable than any human physically, but that doesn't mean we're immune to stress or exhaustion. [k] [charaFace D 0] @Da Vinci Plus, she's been doing her best not to bring[sr]up Sigurd lately... So that might be related. [k] [charaFace D 1] @Da Vinci Nothing good comes of repressing[sr]your feelings like that, you know.

[k] [charaFace E 1] @Mash Even when I was regularly Rayshifting to Singularities,[sr]I was always very glad to have some time off... [k] @Mash Talking with Senpai...[sr]Eating meals together... [k] @Mash Chatting with Dr. Roman during my checkups... [k] [charaFace E 13] @Mash I enjoyed every moment of it. [k] @Mash I don't know how much that downtime affected my magical energy or vital signs... [k] @Mash ...but it was very important to me,[sr]and I'm sure it did me a lot of good. So...

[k] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk on] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Da Vinci A tune-up, he says! What a delightfully tactless way to ignore everything we just said about even Heroic Spirits needing rest. Truly, you are a detective without equal. [k] @Da Vinci Still...I guess Holmes does have a point. [k] [messageOff] [wt 1.0] [charaFace D 1] [bgm BGM_EVENT_1 0.1] @Da Vinci Brynhild's Spirit Origin is something of a special case even as these things go, since she was created by the Allfather of the Norse gods, Odin. [k] @Da Vinci She may have managed to fit into the Servant container now, but she's still technically half Divine Spirit. [k] [charaFace D 0] @Da Vinci Frankly, that she's materialized[sr]like this at all is a miracle. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Mash A miracle... [k] ?1:Don't we see Divine Spirits all the time now? @Mash That's true... They may not make up a large number of the Servants we see, but... [k] ?2:Just off the top of my head...Stheno, Euryale, Quetz, Jaguar... @Mash ...Ishtar, Ereshkigal, and Gorgon[sr]are all Divine Spirits as well. [k] ?! [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 1] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Da Vinci It's easy to lose sight of this now, but the fact that there are so many of them is still miraculous. I suppose it's also true that Chaldea's system for summoning Heroic Spirits is pretty special too. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 1] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Holmes ...I would say so.[sr]They ARE Ghost Liners, after all! [k] [charaFace F 0] @Holmes That term refers to Heroic Spirits, a type of superior spiritual entity whose existence is comprised of records tied to humanity. [k] @Holmes Harnessing their awesome power is one of the most difficult spells imaginable, even compared to the Clock Tower's evocations[line 2]ah, summoning spells, in layman's terms. [k] [charaFace F 6] @Holmes Not to mention that such power is a far cry from something like low-level Demonic Beast or ghost summons. Heroic Spirits are indeed rare and powerful. [k] [charaFace F 0] @Holmes And from there, when you delve into how their ether bodies are given form and personality nearly identical to their living selves... [k] @Holmes ...how could one call the results[sr]anything BUT miraculous? [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 2] [charaFadein F 0.1 0] @Da Vinci ...Well now, you certainly know a lot[sr]about this, don't you, Mr. Holmes? [k] @Holmes Well, I can't take TOO much credit. It is one thing to know, but quite another to act on that knowledge. [k] [charaFace D 5] @Da Vinci I see. So you don't deny it, huh...[sr]You never change, do you?

The short of it is that Brynhild is special even by our rather odd standards. [k] [bgm BGM_EVENT_2 0.1] @Da Vinci A good Master would be wise[sr]to pay some attention to her. [k] @Da Vinci And while I'm at it, I think I WILL give her Spirit Origin a tune-up. I didn't see anything out of the ordinary at her last checkup, but you never know.
