ninth flame : video/ various filters - afternoon of 9/13 { an offering

[Rin looks surprisingly distant and thoughtful today. He's lacking his two usual modes - growling and pissed off or cheerful and derpy. He's just sort of... there.

As much as he wanted to believe it wasn't going to bother him, what Maka revealed is getting to him. And it's not even necessarily the relation to the other two that's bothering him. It's more the other questions he has on his mind.

But for the public post, he has a purpose aside from that.

Oh and he totally has a
Kuro sleeping on his head]

Hey uh... if anyone wants any free lunches already made and you don't wanna bother with the lines at the restaurants today, I grabbed a buncha leftovers from the ball we had frozen and made some. I got way more than even everyone in the Villa is gonna eat, so I figured I'd just give 'em away.

[He holds one up. It's got a rather interesting assortment, not strictly Japanese since there was a pretty good assortment of cultures represented in the food at the masquerade. But whatever, they still look damn good. And Rin has enough bento boxes behind him on the counter to feed about twenty people. How the hell does he do that?

Aaand here comes the next part.]


video//filter//away from Amaimon and Mephisto

Also uh, if anyone sees this guy?

[Rin holds up a picture Amaimon.]

And he's harassin' you or whatever, just send him my away, okay? I'll deal with him.

[He pauses, then continues with with quite a bit of reluctance in his voice, with a tone of some one who is struggling to accept something but knows that he has to sooner or later.]

Just... just tell 'im "little brother" is lookin' for him.

That's it.

[He goes to turn off the SFC, but stops and frowns, switching the filter one last time.]

video//filter//to: Mephisto

Oi. Clown.

We gotta talk.

[Alister waits for Rin to finish, watching the boy's actions, knowing his desperation.

It's something he'd seen in Ratchet, back at the Orvus Chamber, back when the Elder had completely and fully lost his mind for a futile notion. And it hurt, to have to watch someone break down all over again, over something that could not be controlled.

It was hopeless. It was heartbreaking.]


Do you think I haven't been there?

[His tone is low, serious.]

You're speaking to one who had to die in order to find common sense. I know the inner workings of the unstable, I've seen my own Lombaxes fall victim to similar fates after the Great War. It's a slow process, and rarely ever pleasant.

[The General leans over the table, attempting to look the half-demon in the eyes.]

But if you want to fight it, I'll be at your side. With any luck, we can prevent it from happening in the first place. And... hopefully, before someone is hurt.

[...he was still so young, even for an abnormal being.

He shouldn't have to face this at all. But he couldn't think of the 'what-ifs'. Rin was facing this, the possibility of having to end his own brother's life. And what more could he do, than support his friend?

...

And support him he would.

The Lombax rises from his seat, crossing the gap between the two of them. And without a word, the old Lombax kneels down, carefully wrapping his arms around the smaller form, then pulling the boy forward into an embrace.]

I would think that sets off anyone, Rin. [Orvus knows he's guilty of that himself, but shh.]

...you don't have to automatically be someone to achieve greatness. True accomplishments are worked for, not given. And I can already see a lot of greatness in you.

You're willing to save his life. That's all that matters now.

[A distraction, at the most. He knew Rin was concerned about his brother, and it was wise to plan ahead. But considering what was already going on, it would be pushed aside for now.

He takes the box, giving it a look of confusion.]


And what did you say this was again?

Perhaps you should join Ratchet in his studies. I've been trying to teach him Lombax.
