i am incapable of talking about anything not stupid

[velshtein]

So a few years ago a couple of Fate/Zero audio dramas came out, in conjunction with the main audio drama that covered all the novels (which is a great listen especially since the anime used the same voice actors), about some small side stories. A FEW DAYS AGO I NOTICED THAT THIS PERSON WAS TRANSLATING THEM EEEE. The first and third stories sound ADORABLE (especially Irisviel picking out clothes for Saber awww) but I was most interested in the second and fourth ones because listening to Jouji Nakata's voice makes me happy Kirei amuses me.


CD2: Unhesitating People
Synopsis: Rin is out late. Kirei goes to look for her.

Kirei: Rin!
Rin: …Hmm? Who are you?
Kirei: It is me. After changing my attire, you could not recognise me?
Rin: Ki-Kirei?! You…! No, why are you here?
Kirei: Shh! Remember! We met here by coincidence, because Tokiomi-shi and I currently appear to be in opposition.
Rin: I know. But this outfit of yours… So you actually have clothes other than your clerical clothes! …They look pretty fashionable, too~ It’s the first time I’ve seen you wear earrings~

EARRINGS. GHEGUEHGUH. I will admit they would look nice on him.

Kirei: I do not often wear casual clothes, but this is for avoiding attention, since my usual attire is too noticeable in a crowd. Then, Rin, what has happened to make you this dirty? You look as though you have been in a fight.
Rin: Wha…!?
Kirei: Your hair is also messy.
Rin: …Aahhh!


Kirei: Most likely because he is highly on guard against enemies, he is using a very powerful concealment spell.
Rin: As expected of Father!
Kirei: Now is not the time for such remarks.
Rin: Isn’t it just that you’re incompetent?


Kirei: These are truly brilliant searching skills…
Rin: Y-you’re annoying. I’m going on to the next spot! Kirei!
Kirei: …Mm.


Kirei: Rin… I suppose you did not plan to just wander randomly with me…
Rin: Don’t say such ridiculous things!

I LOVE THESE TWO TOGETHER. Rin is so adorable and so gung-ho and lmao so active aggressive towards Kirei, while he's very passive aggressive towards her and I LOVE IT SO MUCH. Just as much as I loved their little exchange in the first episode with Rin threatening to hurt Kirei if he let her dad get hurt and him telling her that her suitcase is too heavy for her gheguehguh. Oh my.
