Archetype:Earth F/GO Valentine's Scene

[Petrikow]

Arcueid	So, I'm thinking we should get our Valentine meeting going!
Arcueid	Yay, yaaay, applause please~☆ Well, not that there's anyone else but us here!
Arcueid	Gonna be kinda like talking into a mirror, but let's not let that bother us and get this show started!
Archetype:Earth	Would arguing into a mirror not be quite the waste of time? I think it's not only confusing, but would just lead us to the same conclusion.
True Ancestor Princess	Not necessarily. Worry thyself not... Nay, perhaps I ought say beest not so craven, thou princess of old.
True Ancestor Princess	'Tis true we act from within the same Saint Graph, but the character and thinking of us is not equal.
True Ancestor Princess	I am a True Ancestor royal of thousand years of passing whom followeth the purposes of Father, never to meet my fated.
True Ancestor Princess	As they would say in the Pan-Human way: an inexistent, yet correct "what-if".
True Ancestor Princess	Royalty with neither subjects nor people; a princess with but a deserted castle. Nevertheless, heed it not.
True Ancestor Princess	Lonely I may be, but never bored, for I may look upon the many dreams of myself, much as I am now.
True Ancestor Princess	Besides―Heh-heh...
True Ancestor Princess	While physical form I have not, as nature I am most potent of all.
True Ancestor Princess	Ye are, let us say, the minds formed by the vessel, while I am the archetype used for the vessel's creation.
True Ancestor Princess	As your minds falter, I sameself—no, perhaps I overspeak, but it beeth something of the same nature that cometh to the surface.
True Ancestor Princess	An uncontrollable rampage, mayhaps.
True Ancestor Princess	Thou knowest surely what I mean, princess of now? Even if the nature were mine, was thy display not rather too immodest?
Arcueid	W-what!? I'd like you NOT just come here to make this an Arcueid-shaming-meeting, okay!?
Arcueid	And I mean, it wasn't, like, actually a rampage, okay? I was still in control, okay? I just got a little stubborn, okay?
Archetype: Earth	Stubborn, is it? So if I let go of all decorum, and make feelings take priority, I will become like you, yes?
Archetype: Earth	I will take it to heart. As a warning. So that I may never become that way myself.
Arcueid	Urgh... Past me is way more ladylike than I'd imagined. Almost can't believe it's myself.
Archetype: Earth	I also cannot perceive you as being myself. Both the usage of your body and the conclusions of your mind are entirely different to mine.
Archetype: Earth	Just what on earth happened to me that I went from how I am, to the way you are now? It boggles the imagination.
Arcueid	Oh, what it was is obvious! There was this human I'd never seen before who just....... Geeeee~☆
Arcueid	Sorry, the rest is a secret! It's just so dear to me, I can't even talk about it to myself!
Archetype: Earth	...... I wasn't exactly looking forward to hearing about it.
Archetype: Earth	Goodness, you do laugh an awful lot, don't you? Are there really so many things you consider that fun?
Arcueid	Yep. To the point where it feels like the world is nothing BUT fun things. I hope you'll feel the same one day, but...
Arcueid	First, we have to take down today's problem. Valentine's Day! You're interested, right?
Arcueid	I can't really give Mr.Ms. Chaldea any chocolate, but it shouldn't be any problem if it's from you!
Archetype: Earth	I told you: it's not like I really care... I was merely a bit curious about what kind of festivity it was, that's all...
Archetype: Earth	I may not know of the world outside the Inner Sea of the Planet, but I'm still Archetype: Earth, the custodian of the planet's memories.
Archetype: Earth	I ought at least learn the culture and customs of the sapient life that prospers on the surface above.
True Ancestor Princess	Forsooth, I am of the same mind. I wish to keep up with each era's trends.
True Ancestor Princess	Be it as we are in this faction of man; Chaldea, one would attain greater concentration of information by participation rather than mere learning.
True Ancestor Princess	This matter concerneth the dignity of us all. The princess of now adapted hence well, but...
True Ancestor Princess	If thou wert to condemn every insolent whom calleth thee "sheltered" or "out-of-touch", Chaldea would soon be empty, no?
Archetype: Earth	That's... true...
Archetype: Earth	I once conversed with the one named "Blackbeard", and nearly was it that I rendered him a 10-folded flat plane.
Arcueid	(Right... so this is how past and future me are like... Seems like neither of them are used to human society)
Arcueid	Okay, stop it with that haughty I-may-as-well-participate attitude.
Arcueid	Valentine isn't just a "human festivity". It's our—no, your festivity, past-me.
Arcueid	You do have feelings of gratitude and appreciation, or even just ones of wanting to know your partner better, right?
Arcueid	So you've gotta take initiative. Even if you try to act all above it, the pleasant feelings will be nobody's but your own.
Archetype: Earth	I am neither "trying" to act above it, nor would I ever feel that this would be "pleasant".
Arcueid	Really? Even though you were so nervously counting the hours before this, wondering what kind of day Valentine would turn out to be?
Arcueid	"Anticipation" and "unease" are the same thing. The mind doing that sorta stuff is what humans would call "pleasant".
Arcueid	Thinking about someone other than yourself was fun, wasn't it?
Archetype: Earth	......
Archetype: Earth	Certainly... if my feelings were the ones coming together, then that would be "my festivity", yes.
Archetype: Earth	And as it is, I have no qualms with making homemade chocolate.
Archetype: Earth	Do you happen to know anything about it?
Arcueid	Oh, but of course! I've got some real homemade ones I made without cheating with my Marble Phantasm right here!
True Ancestor Princess & Archetype: Earth	(Without cheating!? Me, thou art astounding!) (Without cheating!? Me, are you a god or something!?)
Arcueid	Look at that, not seen surprise and self-affirmation like that ever before! I can feel the motivation coming off of both of you!
Arcueid	No worries, making chocolate is easy-peasy! I'll teach you the winning strategy myself!
Arcueid	Even just using the kitchen utensils is proving challenging... Was I really this much of a catastrophe before?
True Ancestor Princess	'Tis not I who is to blame. The human tools are merely frail.
True Ancestor Princess	Moreover, what wantest thou prove by capable cookery? Princess of now, how low thou settest thy sights.
True Ancestor Princess	However thou stretchest thy wits, this lowly chocolate would never amount to more than sweet flavor.
True Ancestor Princess	If so, what remaineth is a mere question of quantity and quality. I shan't make something capable of being contained by a mere box.
True Ancestor Princess	I shall manipulate earth's surface, cultivate an infinitude of cacao trees, then melt it all into an ocean...
True Ancestor Princess	An ocean of chocolate. That is what I shall make. With this, I shan't surely be outdone by any other Archetype.
Arcueid	Yep, that's disqualified! Archetype-me, why are you always like this!? Do you really think bigger is always better!?
Arcueid	Do you even remember the snide comments you had about me earlier?
True Ancestor Princess	Hmph. This ill suiteth me, 'twas all. Furthermore, candy-cookery beeth not the role of royalty.
True Ancestor Princess	I shall take my leave. Ye are entrusted with the rest.
True Ancestor Princess	Recount to me only the outcome. Ye princesses of old and now, your achievements both are mine in the end.
Arcueid	She ran away, huh... Coldhearted and capricious, but still selfishly wanting...
Arcueid	So that's who I'm based on, huh... It's hitting so close to home, I'm almost starting to feel a bit down.
Archetype: Earth	Let's forget about her. Please just concentrate on the chocolate-making right now.
Archetype: Earth	Arcueid, after the water bath, it's fine to add flavorings, yes?
Archetype: Earth	The chocolate you prepared had no bitter profile to it.
Archetype: Earth	I want to make something more refined, something which leaves a deep impression with just a single bite..... is there something on my face?
Arcueid	No, it's not that. I was just surprised. It's the first time I've been called "Arcueid" by myself, is all.
Archetype: Earth	Yes... that usually doesn't happen, does it? If it bothers you, I can stop.
Arcueid	No-no-no, please keep calling me that!
Arcueid	The two of us are both "outcomes" born from the same vessel, but still...
Arcueid	...that you, who saw yourself as "nothing" all this time, would speak that name is very heartwarming.
Archetype: Earth	Is that so...? Our Master calls you that, so I thought it appropriate to imitate, that's all...
Arcueid	Aha. So that boygirl is someone you find precious enough that you'd think something like that. I see.
Arcueid	Alrighty! Let's do our best making this chocolate then! Tell me more about what kinda chocolate you want!
Archetype: Earth	...It being too overblown would be bad. I have a preference for things of a more modest touch.
Archetype: Earth	Additionally, the taste should be complex, but soft. Something like the feel of a luxurious silk... does that help?
Arcueid	Got it! Basically, premium-grade chocolate!
Arcueid	If I'm allowed to be frank... that's actually my speciality! Just listen to me, and it'll allll turn out great!
	- On Valentine's Day -
Archetype: Earth	Excuse me, and greetings, Master of Chaldea.
Archetype: Earth	...Are you perhaps free? If not, I'll just... take my leave...
(choice 1)	I am.
(choice 2)	I'm so free right now.
Archetype: Earth	Really, now? From how the other Servants were talking, it seemed as if each minute of this day was busy for you.
Archetype: Earth	But if you're free, then so be it. Perhaps it was just meant to be.
Archetype: Earth	Here, this is for you. I am, at the end of the day, someone who now calls Chaldea their home.
Archetype: Earth	I ought at least adjust a bit to my environment. I don't want to be thought of as "out-of-touch", you see.
(choice 1)	Yay, chocolate from Her Majesty!
(choice 2)	Thanks! I love it!
Archetype: Earth	......
Archetype: Earth	I wasn't expecting that would be enough for you to jump out of joy.
Archetype: Earth	So Valentine's is that great of a festivity, yes?
(choice)	Can I open it?
Archetype: Earth	...Naturally.
Archetype: Earth	Regardless, this is my first time making chocolate, so I hope it is to your liking... actually, you better make it be to your liking.
Archetype: Earth	Half of it was made by Arcueid. Her way of showing gratitude, or so she says.
Archetype: Earth	I cannot fathom why she made a crack run through it, but that's apparently something she considers "cool".
Archetype: Earth	Which is to say, even though we are the same being, our preferences differ. Ultimately, mine came out better.
Archetype: Earth	Oh. This should go without saying, but the black chocolate is my creation.
Archetype: Earth	...Right then, I'll excuse myself. I hope you'll enjoy Valentine's Day.
(choice)	Wait, wait, wait!
Archetype: Earth	Yes?
(choice 1)	Would you eat it with me?
Archetype: Earth	...Somehow such an idea never crossed my mind.
Archetype: Earth	If I recall, Arcueid did say she spent her Valentine's together with...
Archetype: Earth	Incidentally, you did say you were free, did you not? In that case, I will take you up on your offer.
Archetype: Earth	I've had to taste far more chocolate than I ever wanted, but this will be the first time where it's not for a taste-test.
Archetype: Earth	Yes, like the tea time I've always dreamed of. I hope you may teach this sheltered princess some of your human etiquette.
(choice 2)	So... do you find this enjoyable?
Archetype: Earth	Why, who could know? I do not really understand much about myself.
Archetype: Earth	However, I might have been imagining how your face would look when asking me that question these last few days.
Archetype: Earth	Now that it's become real, my heart is beating so loudly that I can almost hear it, and......
Archetype: Earth	I suppose she was right. This really is too precious to be put into words.

When I saw it on youtube and TA Princess spoke her lines, I was immediately aware of who had done the translation. Good job.

Well, I'm happy that it spoke louder than the video description.

Thanks for the compliment. I was rather happy that one of the more upvoted comments was about being able to distinguish between the three different Arc's by voice alone. That's all I could ask for, I suppose.

I actually didn't read the description because the credits were mysteriously absent for LB7 so I didn't open it for valentines either. But a translation for Arcueid this good and distinct could only come from one source anyway.

[Rafflesiac]

Well that was cute. Thanks for the translation.

[Dartz]

I didn't know that was your channel. Likewise, thank you for the translation.

[Petrikow]

It's not my channel. It's the channel of the developer of Rayshift.io, for which I translate things, sometimes.

[Dartz]

Ah got it. I see now.

Replace me for Petri in the LB6 credits and that's basically it for LB7, by the way. In case anyone actually wondered.

[Comun]

Oh, I wasn't told was removed from the project.

Penalty for waifu crimes

Oh, I wasn't told was removed from the project.

Replace me for Petri in the Traum credits and that's basically it for LB7.
