[Pick some aspect of our modern culture. A TV show, a video game, a sport, whatever. Be creative. I shall have Rider experience it and give his thoughts on it.]

[The best time for soul searching is at the tail end of a massive party when everyone is slightly drunk. Rider, a goblet of wine in one hand, addresses you seriously.]
This is a fine revel, but that alone does not let me know your measure as a man/woman/individual [select appropriate].
Tell me, what would you say is the most important thing in life? What ideal do you value above all others?
-3-

[Battle is joined! Or at least, it will be in a moment. First, the enemy would have a word with you, under the flag of parley.]
This need not come to violence, my friend. You need only surrender and join my cause. Surely a peaceful resolution would be best?
[Despite his conciliatory words, he IS still addressing you from a massive chariot.]
-OR-
Just respond to this post with a character, either making up your own scenario or just leaving the comment blank. If you leave it blank, I shall do my best to come up with an entertaining situation for the characters involved.

1-- beach trip
...and Oceanus weighed heavily on the young man's mind.
It wouldn't be nearly what Rider must have imagined, but it would have to suffice.
That was why he marched down the street in silence after throwing an XXXXL pair of swim trunks at the giant Macedonian and yelled at him to put them on. His own preparations were paltry in comparison-- the sweater and tie had been removed, and the shoes were replaced with something more casual.
As always, he couldn't spit the words out.]

Man, who gives a shit. As long as I can kill people, I'm happy.

And you - I'll see later.
[With that, he turns to Rider, hands clasped together, eyes turning to the people still partying]
See how happy they are? They don't have to worry about whether their homes are going to be razed by an enemy, persecuted for being different, don't have to fear their king will seize their belongings and take their children to die in some foreign land. That's what I think is important - the freedom to just be without the cloud of dread and doom over their heads and not having to surrender their culture or their ideas just to live.

But it's got some clear attractions. Yes, it's fake, but it's faked well. There is an artistry to it, and an aspect of well done theater. So even if it is bad wrestling, perhaps he is still interested.
Again, however, Rozalin isn't fond of it at all.]
What. Is on that television?

Most important thing?
[Saber takes a few moments to think about the question, as she's sampled a fair bit more wine than she technically needs anyway. Immunity to Poison doesn't mean you can't have other status effects.]
Most important thing...protecting others. Yes.
[She nods firmly.]
Or finding the means to protect others.

King of Conquerors, are you ready... for MOTORCYCLES!? Saber has brought a pair.]
Rider, behold one of the many 'steeds' of the common era. While not in as much use as the common car, I find these to be most akin to how riding a horse is.
