Arturia tended to keep to herself most days. True, she would check in with those she had come to know every now and then, but most days she simply wandered the Tower, trying to build up the map she and Diarmuid were slowly but surely putting together. An idea was forming in her mind after talking with a few others. If their goal was to reach the lower levels, then they needed to map it out in order to figure out what the best way to strike was. This was enemy territory they would be going into and they needed to be ready.

She entered the cafeteria, trying to remember who had gone down with her and breezed past the line into the kitchens to get more of these "dinorsaur chicken nuggets" she found bland, but were amusing to look at while she ate and play with when no one was there to see. It was here that her thoughts ground to a halt.

There, by the stove, was a shock of red hair on a boy she had a vague idea might show up, but she had never expected to see in the flesh again. A boy who, in one moment, she remembered meeting, serving, fighting alongside, kissing, and so much more. So much more that ended in his death at her hands for a wish that ultimately meant nothing. Feelings she had been attempting to keep at bay for the sake of moving on raged like dragonfire within her heart and she had to take a moment to quell it before finally speaking.

"Shirou?"
