Marie

And a one, and a two♪

Boar Piglets

Doo-waaa♪

Bala-bon-bala-bon♪

Marie

Yes, very good. Keep going!

Boar Piglets

Elohim, Essaim♪

Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn♪

Marie

Huh? That doesn't sound right.

Fou

Fou.

Mash

Their voices are so lovely. It's all very soothing.

Mary

Really? I was hoping for a more extreme song.

Something more pirate-like... A rebellious rock anthem, for example.

Anne

...That incantation at the end wasn't extreme enough for you?

Marie

Yes, you're all good.

A beautiful voice heals the soul, so don't ever forget how to sing, little ones, okay?

Boar Piglets

Okay!

C:Boar Piglet

Singing is such a wonderful activity, yup.

D:Boar Piglet

The finest achievement of a civilization, yup.

E:Boar Piglet

Will singing lead to world peace? Will it make weapons disappear? Will it turn the world into a giant unisex hot spring?

C:Boar Piglet

Nope.

E:Boar Piglet

Oh...

Marie

???

Mash

I don't think even she can understand the piglets' logic anymore. Not even France's number one idol.

C:Boar Piglet

Idol. I like the sound of that, yup.

E:Boar Piglet

Why don't we have a concert? I want to really test my pipes, yup.

C:Boar Piglet

Let's do it, yup.

D:Boar Piglet

Let's do it, yup.

E:Boar Piglet

Then it's decided, yup.

Marie

Huh? What's decided?

E:Boar Piglet

Goddess. We want to hold a concert, yup!

Marie

...Wonderful! That's a wonderful idea! Oh, little ones, you're amazing!

E:Boar Piglet

Aw shucks, yup.

Marie

Hmm, but we'll need a proper venue.

...Come to think of it, the other day we just built a... Aha!

Master! I just had a good idea!

Mash

A boar piglet concert? Yes, I think that's a lovely idea.

Marie

I know, right? Let's start by making invitations!

C:Boar Piglet

Invitations?

D:Boar Piglet

Like the ones from the devil, yup?

E:Boar Piglet

It's a sad thing that your adventures...

C:Boar Piglet

...have only just begun here.

D:Boar Piglet

Oh? I don't think that's how the message goes.

Mash

...All right, piglets. Let's get to work.

Boar Piglets

Okay!

Fou

Fou...

Marie

We made a lot of invitations. Let's hand them out to the other piglets.

E:Boar Piglet

We can live off of the royalties, yup.

Marie

That's for another time.

E:Boar Piglet

Goddess, Goddess. Who should we deliver the invitations to?

Marie

Who? Mmm, how about to those you want to become friends with?

C:Boar Piglet

That we want to be friends with, yup?

D:Boar Piglet

I want to deliver love and excitement all over the world, yup!

C:Boar Piglet

Because love and excitement are free!

E:Boar Piglet

Free... I like the sound of that.

Fou

Fou.

Marie

Fujimaru, Mash, please deliver the invitations to everyone, too.

Mash

Yes, sure.

Your choice

Roger!

Mash

?!

Well, Senpai, what should we do? Shall we start by delivering them to the other boar piglets?

C:Boar Piglet

We'd appreciate that, yup.

D:Boar Piglet

(Praying)

E:Boar Piglet

Invitations delivered by Master will surely be valued at a premium, yup.

C:Boar Piglet

Auction, auction, yup!

Mash

They won't attract a premium, no. Please use them.

We passed them out to a lot of boar piglets, but there are still so many left.

...Look at how most of them are just showing them off to each other...

C:Boar Piglet

My invitation has been specially printed, yup. Want to see?

D:Boar Piglet

Mine is fancier. The color is bone white and the typeface is... S-Silian Rail?

E:Boar Piglet

Now there's some fast trivia for you, yup.

C:Boar Piglet

This conversation makes me think of the last days of a materialistic civilization.

Fou

Fou!

Mash

I think Fou wants to call "Out!" on that last comment.

Anyway, I think it would be meaningless to deliver any more invitations to the boar piglets.

Marie

Mash, Master. What's the matter?

Mash

We've handed out most of the invitations now, but...

Marie

Hmm...I know! Let's give them to other Servants, too.

I'm sure everyone would want to listen to the boar piglets sing.

Mash

Y-You think so?

Marie

Come on, let's force the invitations on anyone we see!

Altria

...Singing piglets? I see. That certainly sounds like a nice experiment.

The building is almost complete, so I'll probably be a little late, but count me in.

Mordred

Huh? A boar piglet concert? I-I'm not interested. Besides, I'm a delinquent!

And I'm busy surfing, too!

Marie

No excuses. Like it or not, you're going to listen to them, Miss Mo.

After all, they're looking forward to it. So if you still refuse, knowing that, then

Mordred

Then what?

Well, Your Highness!? If you want to threaten me, you'd better put a little muscle on those scrawny arms first!

Marie

If that's the way you want it to be, I'll maul you with this beach ball and force the invitation on you!

Mordred

Seriously!? I see!!

You asked for it! This'll be a nice change of pace for me, taking on a Servant instead of the usual demon boars!

All right, come and get me!

Mordred

Argh! I lost! Fine, you win. I'll go, dammit!

Marie

Heeheehee. Thank you, Miss Mo!

Mordred

Stop calling me that already.

Mash

...Master, it seems like Mordred held back a little.

Your choice

I bet she actually wanted to go.

Mash

Exactly. No matter what she says, Mordred is actually fond of the boar piglets.

Your choice

Just being shy.

Mordred

Hey, Master. Keep yapping like that and I'll sew your mouth shut!

?!

Marie

Okay, who else should we give an invitation to? If possible, I'd like it to be another Servant who refuses to come!

Mash

...Are you pondering what I'm pondering?

Tamamo-no-Mae

Excuse me? The boar piglets in concert? Mmm, that's not Tamamo's style. I'm not really interested, so I'll pass!

Marie

You can't.

Tamamo-no-Mae

Huh? But I said no.

Watching those boar piglets singing on stage is not my idea of a good time.

Marie

Too bad♪

Tamamo-no-Mae

Um, from the way you're holding that beach ball, I take it

Marie

Yes! after I knock you out, I will stuff the invitation in your hands!

3. After the battle

21 lines
Marie

I won! So I'll just stuff this invitation somewhere on you!

Tamamo-no-Mae

Don't they have laws against threats on this island?

E:Boar Piglet

Treats?

C:Boar Piglet

There's medicine for stomachaches from eating too many treats, yup.

D:Boar Piglet

It won't make you drowsy or tired either. Plus it works as a painkiller. Oh, and it cures cavities and appendicitis, yup.

E:Boar Piglet

And it's completely LEGAL, yup!

Tamamo-no-Mae

As always, you speak of teeth-grinding nonsense that has nothing to do with us!

I'm sure your concert will be just as bad, if not worse!

Ugh, but I'm forced to go after losing that duel, so I had better be prepared...

Marie

All right, the concert hall is filled to capacity!

Mash

This must be exciting, Marie.

Altria

All of the singing boar piglets are here. It's adorable how nervous they seem.

Mordred

I wonder what they're going to sing.

Tamamo-no-Mae

Hmph. Songs not fit for human or Servant ears, I'll wager.

E:Boar Piglet

Ladies and gentlemen, we'd like to start things off with this little number, yup. The title is...

Mash

Those were some truly fantastic songs.

A standing ovation... Thunderous applause... The boar piglets seem extremely pleased with the outcome, too.

...Just one thing, though.

For some reason all of the songs they chose had troubling lyrics and a dark tone.

Like "One, two, Freddy's coming for you"... "Don't you ever laugh as the hearse goes by"... and "Bloody Mary"...

Tamamo-no-Mae

I told you so!!
