10th Grail [Video/Action for Olivine]
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
[As the last strains of "Angels We Have Heard on High" leave Ilya's lips, she picks up a nearby mug and nurses at it a bit, kicking her legs and seemingly oblivious to the fact that she's being taped.
But not for long. She turns her eyes to the side and blinks in surprise.] Orpheus, you weren't supposed to turn that on yet! I'm still warming up!
[But with a little sigh and a soft smile of amusement, she shrugs it off.] Oh well, I guess I'm about ready. Most of you probably don't know this but I've been... complaining a little about the sort of music they're playing and some of us are singing about now. Not that I don't like Christmas or anything, I just don't like most of the songs.
But there are a few good ones out there, and so I decided that I'd sing all the ones I know that I actually like tonight. Sort of like caroling only I'm doing it over the network instead of door-to-door. As such, if you'd like to hear one, you can just respond and I'll sing one for you. You can either pick one or let me do it, I don't mind either way.
Just don't ask me to sing something like "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" or "Santa Clause is Coming to Town", alright?
[Her message sent, Ilya takes another sip and starts to sing again.]
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day, On Christmas Day
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day in the morning

Also, I'm sorry about the earlier double comment!
All of that.
[ A beat. ]
But listen, I think I've diverted the conversation too far off course. I really appreciate you sharing your talent though.

But... if you want to talk about the other thing sometime, I'm interested in that too.

[ Awkward pause. ]
Oh, right. I'm Yukio, by the way. Yukio Okumura. Pleased to meet you.

[She gives a little bow, since curtsying while sitting isn't possible.]

I'm sure we'll talk again soon, Miss von Einzbern.
