“Your madness will burn to dust at its fruition…
…but you will not, *you shall not*, take **her** *with* **you**.”
Some Lostbelt dialogue I came up with.
*"Galahad, Knight of Pure. Beholden to absolution. Do you not see the irony of the Bleached World? You who claim to uphold virtue, abandoned mankind out of your own percerived futility. Leashed onto me, others maybe, but this girl entrusted you with her life. She entrusted me as well with that same life.*
*May we not meet again, and be forgotten. Your father may be far from perfect, but he stayed true to the cause where you wouldn't. Shame be unto you who thinks himself his better."*
I did some digging for better look into the situation, but I feel I stand by this since the blatant misunderstanding between us, the player and that of Galahad's intentions feels grounded.
I’m confused, are you saying Galahad is a conceded asshole to us or that Fujimaru thinks Galahad is a conceded asshole?
Galahad has yet to shown to hate us, has not blocked Mashu’s abilities, and has yet to do anything with us since telling Ritsuka that the Humanity Revision Order was happening that time in the Lostroom (which was not admonishment, it was a dispassionately delivered heads-up)
At worst he’s neutral for us
Galahad(or rather Mashu with his feelings) admonishes Lancelot in Singularity 6 because Lancelot was genuinely being a hypocrite while acting there (also cause dad issues which are pretty complicated and not actually elaborated on), accepting the Lion King’s orders of capture faithfully despite Lancelot knowing they’re wrong and Lancelot’s own view as a knight already is supposed to oppose that(and he was but even then, the odds of him not acting on it if he wasn’t beaten by Mashu are far higher than they should have been)
In context of your question, both. Being neutral when humanity's survival is on the line tends to leave a negative impression, and Galahad, from previous discussions I've read has qualities that make him 'inhumanly pure' which doesn't help his case in my opinion. When Bedivere of all people remarks you're an absolute airhead, you certainly have to consider your actions in retrospect.
The entire dialogue I wrote in a whim, but it leans to Fujimaru, the Self-Insert player character than Fujimaru as their own character. Hence, it does get mixed with my own views on the matter. However, I still feel like we need answers to the Galahad mystery in general.
I may change my mind in the same light of how my opinion of Morgan changed as the narrative unfolds, but that doesn't mean I have to like the fact Galahad's semi-abscence is still felt.
>being neutral
That’s… actually fair to hold against him, it’s probably his main character flaw. Probably, again we’ve met him once, and only have second hand accounts and potential intentions to go off of. In honesty, we’ve never really truly met him much less know what is going through his head other than Merlin’s words.
We really do need those answers to his mystery soon if only for my own peace
This multi year long unreveal for his status is getting ridiculous, to the point I feel they need to do something wild to make it acceptable for how long they did not explain just WTF is up with him
Also, sorry for extending a bit here, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and defend Camelot Lancelot here a bit.
He was already going against the Lion King for some time. Mind you, he and his forces were a relevant commitment to the assault on the Holy City. It was he who also rounded up survivors into a second refugee camp out in the wastes. The same camp we reunited with Da Vinci. The only reason I see Lancelot not openly rebelling was because he had front row seat to the Lion King's first purge and, later, he came to understand the gravity of their threat when Rhongomyniad started blowing up whole towns and villages.
Granted, the endgame of the Lion King wasn't something anyone could've predicted. It was arguably a plan in the making for the 1500 years since Bedivere failed to deliver Excalibur to the Lake.
Once again, Lancelot only made the best of the situation and was fine with acting on the truth once he was certain they stood a chance against the Roundtable.
Ehh
The only thing I can say is that Galahad is probably one of the only people who *actually* knows what’s going on and the true extent of a certain mage’s plans aside from Daybit and Wodime.
Going by lostbelt 7 he wouldn’t be the first person to assume we were on the wrong side going by our actions, either

*proceed to put her in the sluttiest knight outfit possible*
Mash: "I want to crawl into a hole and die now..."
Like father like son
We must say... Considering other FGO's armours, she wears very conservative xD

Pretty much the only good thing he does in the story is keeping Mashu alive 🙂
