[ R-Rated Frontiers for Depictions of Animal Cruelty! Sorry Maki! ]
Akihabara... Ah, near Edo? But it wouldn't have been built until long after my time.
[ Why did the Throne of Heroes give him this knowledge? Because the Throne is an otaku, duh. ]
There's nothing wrong with being a princess, but that's only if you are allowed to live a princess' life. If you are to fight in a war, you'll have to know what the common folk have always known.
[ All Servants, heroes from another era! Except Emiya who is from the near future of his most recent summons. ]
Names are supposed to be a parent's wishes... Well, I wouldn't know much about that, but it seems like you've fulfilled theirs well. Still, you're not in Tokyo any more, you'll have to live a slightly different kind of life.
Are you saying that being like a princess isn't something you were raised with, but rather something innate to your person? That's a rather bold claim.
[ Clearly, that means becoming a princess is her destiny. ]
I'm certain your parents raised you with the same expectations they named you.
[ She's surprised by the sudden light in her room that is the video from her Carrier's mouth (never going to not be weird is it) nearly falling off her bed. ]

W-What are you talking about?!

You've been raised too far from the land. You ought to know about the blood that goes into every meal you have.

I-I was born in Akihabara! But we visit the countryside to go to a ryokan every fall!
[ ...So not helping herself. ]
Why would I want to know that?!

Edo was changed to Tokyo!
[ She really is dealing with an ancient spirit, isn't she? She'd ask about that but there's something that needs to be responded to first: ]
P-Princess?! I am not!!
no subject
So it was, but I still remember it as Edo.
[ The name was changed in the 1800s! He lived somewhere in the 1500s! Probably! Nobody really knows! ]
Your name is Maki is it not? That certainly sounds like a princess' name, if not by blood then by your parents' aspirations.
[ Y'know, True Lady and all. ]

You and Artoria and Oda-sama...
[ So many old men. Well, two old men who are now girls. Somehow. ]
It's... [ Yeah she has heard that a lot. ] W-Well, it's not like I named myself! so it's only natural I am the way I am!
[ That's not a good explanation for anything. ]

[ Only slightly. ]

[ She lets out a heavy sigh, at this point too far into it to even really get into how it should be impossible.
Plus she's got other things to worry about. ]
I-If I act like a princess it has nothing to do with my name. I'm not going to apologize for who I am!
[ She really is on a whole different level. ] What's that got to do with anything?!

M-My parents are plenty proud of me the way I am! You still didn't explain what this is about!
no subject
What I'm saying is... Staying elegant and refined is perfectly fine, but if you stay sheltered you're going to die.
no subject
W-who said I was sheltered?!
no subject
I did, and I suspect so will most people who are sufficient judges of character.
[ He has confidence in his eyes, okay? ]

What makes you think that? Wait-- Are you saying people think I'm sheltered!?
