[ buddy, this is one of Gilgamesh's least weird and/or just downright shady outfits. sure, he has what looks like an albatross or something clinging to his ass, but at least the outfit, taken holistically, had a certain semblance of #Aesthetic to it.
it was Gilgamesh's modern clothing choices which were actually far more questionable. anyway... ]
One must wonder how it came to be so.
[ Gilgamesh does look thoughtful. ]
The era I was born into was far before such things, yet I have been summoned into many eras, so I cannot be easily surprised. I know something of the sorts of machines you speak of, for example. They exist in Chaldea in the time of my current summoning. [ well, where he had just been lately, rather. ] Yet, in the Earth I come from, also, things were not so advanced.
[ could it be that this is also a summoning of sorts? Gilgamesh is familiar with the concept: perhaps more so than others who were here. he was a Servant, after all, and thus highly era-adaptable. but this ... if so, it was a future far distant to any he had contemplated or was familiar with. and this world did not seem to be Earth, even of the future. ]
Something seems to have happened to this world, or perhaps its progress has simply gone on for millennia, unchecked. But what might drive such advancements? Such heights? That, I wonder.
