"Achoooo!" Gudako sniffed as she sat on her bed, clutching her blanket as a thermometer was placed on her mouth as she sniffed again trying to wipe her nose with the blanket before a knife was placed in her face "Try blowing your nose in that blanket and I'm going to make sure this embeds in your face." the changed colored eyes stare into Gudako as it shook her to the core

"G-g-gomen..."

Sighing, the Servant retracted her knife "Sorry. But you should know that you'll be troubling the staff if ever you blew your nose in those white blankets. Da Vinci might get mad at you." she scolded the Master who gulped but nodded anyway

It was early morning. Da Vinci had prohibited any further excursions that day. The reason being Gudako was sick. Ryougi Shiki, who was the one who first saw the Master suffering from sickness, offered to take care of her, reasoning out that no one should get closer to Master because they might catch her cold, although Mash reasoned that Servants don't catch colds, Shiki insisted eitherway. Da Vinci gave her permission because all she had to do was stay by the Master side

For some reason, Gudako also requested for Shiki to be the one to take care of her. Mash, as if understanding why Gudako was so adamant about it, nodded and complied

"I wonder why Mash just agreed when you were the one who asked me to take care of you...?" Shiki wonders out  loud as she retrieved the thermometer from Gudako and read it "38.5. A cold, alright. What did you do for you to tire yourself out like this?" Shiki asks as she looks into Gudako's eyes

"Probably the enemies we faced in the recent event. You know, where I got you from? AAACHOOO!" Gudako sneezes again as she says this which made Shiki look at her worriedly again. Gudako gives another big sniff and Shiki had to fight the urge to scold her

"Let me get you some tissues," she says instead then paused to grab the box from the Master's bedside table and give it to her "Here."

With a sniff, Gudako accepted the tissues "Thank you, Shiki-san..." the way she addressed her made the Assassin Class Servant, now known as Ryougi Shiki, look at her Master "Why the formal tone so suddenly?" "Well," Gudako scratched the back of her head "You seemed so motherly-like today...you took care of me when you saw me passed out in the kitchen..." the Master continues

"Well, who wouldn't be worried about you, Master? I was getting some dawn strawberry ice cream when I saw you passed out...what were you doing anyway?" Shiki asks and Gudako sniffed while the Servant offered her some more tissues. After thanking her and accepting the tissues, Gudako said "I woke up from a dream and couldn't go back to sleep, then suddenly, I felt that I was starting to heat up so I went to the kitchen to try and make soup for me but..." Gudako trails off and she settles on looking into Shiki's dark orbs

"What? Is something wrong?" Shiki asks, noticing the Master's sudden silence and her attention to her

"I haven't told you what my dream is about..." Gudako says, her gaze shifting to her hands on her blanket

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

"You see, whenever I get dreams, they seem to be about certain Servants I formed contracts with. It could be about their lifetime or some other. But what everyone discovered is that whenever I got these dreams, I always got sick..." Gudako narrates and Shiki raises a curious eyebrow, finding it very intriguing "So this isn't the first time it happened?" she asked the Master who was starting to fiddle her fingers

"Yeah. Sometimes, talking about the dream to the Servant who the dream is about is a good way to alleviate the sickness from getting worse...although that one isn't entirely proven by Chaldea.... But it happened already before so...I decided to take my chances and ask Da Vinci to let the Servant who was the subject of my dream stay with me so I could tell of my dream..." Gudako then shifts her gaze back to Ryougi Shiki's eyes
