[] Talk to Scathach about getting into contact with Hans. He's the only one who could fix you. If it meant keeping yourself alive, you'll talk to him.
You met Emiya's gaze and smiled his way, "Thanks, Mr. Emiya. Sorry about this."
"Don't be. Besides by job isn't quite done yet," Emiya said as he shook his head, "I need to make sure it doesn't fall into the wrong hands."
Scathach stared at the man's back for that statement but otherwise said nothing. You decided to turn her way and address her.
"You said that only one person can fix me. I'm all ears. You have a way to communicate with him?" You asked her with a serious tone.
Scathach nodded and said, "Indeed. I can relay your message. He would be willing to accommodate you, I'm sure."
"I bet he will," you sighed before leaning on your pillow.
"Him?" Emiya frowned as he crossed his arms.
"Hans Derrinsmith. The politician running for Mayor this election. Young guy, baby faced, probably evil?" You shrugged as you grimaced.
"Evil perhaps. Still, no doubt he would be grateful for you taking out two competitors in this farce of a war," Scathach said as she met your gaze, "Consider this as a once in a lifetime chance."
"Hans Derrinsmith... I see. Luvia warned me about him. So, is he Master too?" Emiya asked you with a raised eyebrow.
"Probably just a Magus being opportunistic but... I won't bank on it. Miss Sarah here is affiliated with him but she won't tell us anything," you said as you shot the older woman a look.
She simply gave you a smile fully knowing what you meant. You're starting to get why Medb doesn't like her. She's cool but really unhelpful at times.
"I see... Still, would this be wise? Getting help from a potential foe?" Emiya frowned as he looked at you.
"Brie has little choice. She and Hans are connected by a twist of Fate," Scathach chimed in as she studied you, "I'm sure that Medb mentioned this girl's true nature?"
"A homonculus and automata hybrid. If you ask me, it's like the Magus equivalent for Android," Emiya said with a thoughtful look.
"I'd be happier with the distinction if my ass was bigger," you grumbled as you sulked.
"Hans happens to be related to the family which constructed this girl's body and given her the records to generate a pseudo Personality you see now," Scathach explained as she walked over to you and tapped your head, "Though that may be, it's like she's replicating her personality from a baseline and had it develop into this one you see now. Most likely due to that childish Queen's influence."
"Then that would make it sound like she's an Artificial Intelligence that evolved under unique circumstances from a base personality," Emiya said with widened eyes.
"I'm right here you know! You can't just talk about me like that!" You griped as you swatted Scathach's hand away.
"Hans has the ability to fix the damage she sustained. He's more versed in it but there's one problem," Scathach said before she swatted your hand away and forced her own to ruffle your orange hair.
Emiya ignored your groans and frowned, "What kind?"
"Hans said I was designed to kill him. I may not have full access to my abilities but they're there for the sole purpose of killing him. I think whoever sent me here had the intention of me being an assassin," you breathed as you stopped resisting Scathach's headpats.
Emiya stared at you then before giving you a long hard look, "You? An Assassin?"
"Unfortunately her manufacturers didn't account for her brain damage," Scathach added as she pulled away.
"I'm... I'm sorry but I just can't see you being of the sort I mean... You seem like a nice girl that couldn't hurt a fly," Emiya blinked as he tried to process the notion.
"I'm sorry," you apologized as you gave the guy brain work out, "Don't worry, it's very telling. I'm not the type to slip knives into people's ribs with a smile. That's probably more Rider's thing."
"I highly doubt that," Scathach pointed out from the side while shaking her head.
"Right. I'll contact Luvia for now and update her on our situation," Emiya said as he got up, "You rest up now. Miss Sarah, if you don't mind me using your kitchen for a bit, I want to make her some soup."
"Porridge would be better in my opinion. Still, you've made some passable meals. I'll allow it once more," Scathach said as she nodded.
Emiya smiled before he ruffled your hair with a proud look in his eyes. He then walked off, leaving you alone with the Witch of Dun Scaith. The door shut and clicked as you ended up looking at your hands.
"So... How does it feel?" Scathach asked as you glanced her way, "To have a heart?"
"I don't know. It's a new sensation for me. Knowing my origins and what I am, it makes me wonder why such a feature was installed," you said as you pressed your hand over your chest, "But... I don't hate it."
"It's ironic... In this day and age where man forsakes his heart, Dolls like you could grow them. It's disappointing to think about how this Age is progressing," Scathach murmured as she leaned on the wall.
"Any advice you can give me?" You wondered with a raised eyebrow.
"Whatever Medb does, don't always go along with it. Otherwise you'll just be another puppet under her control. She has a thing for people that resist her charms... Setanta was like that too but he never held true interest in anything other than martial prowess," Scathach replied as she gave it some thought, "Be on your guard and prepare for your meeting with Hans. I'll let you recover here for a bit more."
"Got it," you sighed as you slumped down.
"You're a diamond in the rough, little Doll," Scathach said as she watched over you.
