Aya Alayana
Einzbern Forest
Morning Phase
"Hmph... Of course, I, too, am used to the exclusive production of solo works. A famous idol such as myself has no need to share the stage with anyone else, be them a dazzling princess or an overbearing dictator. No matter what, It would ultimately end with me stealing the spotlight."
With the giant menace gone, Elizabeth's pride slowly but surely begins to pick itself up. It appears that she has been summoned to a troublesome place filled with outstanding rivals, but she's not just another pretty face. She's tough! She's determined! She's intelligent! Whoever tries to claim those defining traits as their own will be sent straight back home, where all those character with overlapping personality quirks belong!
"Although, if we're in this together, I guess signing up for a Collab is the least I could do for a rookie like yourself. What is that? A crossover with Grand Idol Class Servant, Elizabeth? Yeah, there has to be no faster method to bump up your album sales."
Now, it might sound like the little demoness is belittling you and, in a way, she might be, but you see, this is also her way of showing kindness. After all, in spite of your 'punk big sister' image that would surely light a spark in the hearts of rebel teenagers, you are way past the ideal age for this sort of business and she could have said that to your face. Instead, she's willing to do charity work just to get you off the ground. That's like, the nicest thing one can probably expect from a real monster like herself.
"Well, if you are going to be my duo, you should know that there is no place for failure. Cold idol... Tragic Idol... It makes no difference. If you can't stand the stress when it really matters then you are better off calling it quits. If you make me look bad, I'll push you off the stage without mercy, you hear?"
The march continues as the conversation carries on. It's hard to grasp how much progress has been made since the two of you have met each other as both of you seem to communicate in slightly different languages. And though Elizabeth might take a step back at the sight of danger, she can be surprisingly stubborn every other time. Strong in her very own way, it would seem like having the final word is a key part of her egocentric nature.
"As for me, do not worry. I have faced greater trials in the past." Even without turning around, you can gauge just how just haughty her attitude can be. For someone that appears to be no older than fourteen, it can be either commendable or very out of place. "Just make sure to match my tempo and I'll carry you all the way to the top. Well, as close to the peak someone like you can get, anyways."
A brief pause.
The gap between you grows larger, as she stops advancing.
She needs a moment to word her thoughts so there is no misunderstanding of any sort. It's true that she is in a pickle, without a proper Master to aid her yet, but she, like you is an independent figure. She'll no doubt continue even if you decide to throw the towel. That is the sort of individual she has chosen to become.
"... A contract." She mutters then. "If we're going to team up, it's got to be official. If it's a contract... Then I'll agree to follow the rules, for a while, at least."
Aya Alayana cannot forge a contract with a Servant.
In the first place, not even those called Magicians should be able to achieve such thing on their own. In a Holy Grail War, it's only through the Holy Grail that said bond can be forged. Because Aya Alayana has not been chosen as the bearer of the mark that defines a Master, then no such connection can be realized.
However, if it is just a verbal contract, then it's possible. Naturally, it won't submit Elizabeth to your bidding or anything, but in the supernatural world, words can be powerful tools. If you both mean it and voice it out loud then, for the time being, you can act like an official pair of sorts. At least until this whole matter is resolved.
"You want to go up, right~?"
Dragon wings flutter and spread wide.
