ayaka blinks, taken by surprise as he calls her 'master' with such fervor. even though she had gone ahead and said that without thinking, she would be lying if she felt like a true master yet. but it reminds her of what's important, and the goal that she must not let go of.
not only for her sake, but for saber's.
with a small huff through her nose, she does her best to hide a smile by covering her mouth with the palm of her hand. ]
You can continue to call me Ayaka, you know? It sounds too formal if you call me 'Master', even if that's what we are.
[ Hehehe. He nods, his eyes sparkling as he sits back in his chair. ]
Right, right. Sorry, Ayaka. It just felt right in the moment. [ ... ] Speaking of, how have you been referring to me as?
[ More of a curiosity than something that important. Especially since his True Name's out there in front of God and everybody, even if maybe two people would have a chance of knowing who he is. ]

[ she blinks. ]
A mix of Richard and Saber. I know your name's right there and that it probably doesn't matter, but I can't really decide.
[ richard's his name, but... saber feels right. it's what she's been calling him this whole time. ]
Though I've gotten a few head tilts when I refer to you as Saber, so maybe I should just call you by your True Name.
