[When she made her contract with the world to offer her service as a Servant in exchange for a chance to grant her wish, Saber had been prepared to be summoned across time for the purpose of fighting in a war. But his 'summoning' wasn't even a summoning at all, but some terrible accident. Moreover, she was no longer a warrior, but a student? She had stared hard at the letter as she walked through her new surroundings, her expressionless face giving away nothing of her complete confusion. It all made sense... yet it didn't make any sense at all.
Dismissing her battle-armour and Excalibur, she remained in her blue dress, not willing to chance finding out whether or not her more modern attire had somehow come with her. She might have stood out, but at the very least she had no special need to hide that her presence was unnatural.
She paused occasionally to scrutinise her new surroundings through an experienced knight's eyes. It seemed peaceful enough... at least, on the surface. But for all she knew of this alien place, that could change.]

Yeah, I can only do this kind of tag at 6AM with no sleep
Will you please cease referring to me as Arthur, at the very least? I have not needed to use that name since I died and I would prefer not to dwell on it when I have more pressing matters to concern myself with.

[Merlin pauses]
You actually think you're Arthur?
[Of all of the strange things Merlin had experience, this...somehow managed to top all of them]
Right. Well, you're definitely mad. Now if you don't mind me, I'm going to go now. To somewhere else. [he points over to a nearby door] The dorms are through there.

That is the name that you told me I should be known as to the people. As uncouth as it would be to suggest that you've lost certain faculties over the long years, I can think of no other reason for you to forget so easily.
[She planted one hand on her hip as she gave him her best annoyed, displeased stare. He was probably enjoying it, but perhaps obliquely suggesting he'd lost his edge might get her point across.]
And no doubt those are the men's dormitories.
[Going in a different direction partly just to spite him but also because that's the sort of thing Merlin would do for entertainment]

Yes, she was definitely mad.
But now she was gone, so Merlin just left in the opposite direction, glad at least that she was gone now]
