caughtinanetwork | ninth flame : video/ various filters

[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.]

Oi. Clown.

We gotta talk.

I've never been.

You're lucky then! It's a pain in the ass!

Yeah, I kind of remem--

[Roxas, ordinary people don't remember things they've never done.]

I mean, I've heard about that. Um. That it's boring and stuff.

[You're lucky Rin is still kind of in distracted derp mode, Roxas.]

It is. And people are jerks.

Jerks?

[...what, like Riku?]

Yeah, people who think they're all awesome and stuff, and strut around with bad attitudes pickin' on people they think are weaker then them, beatin' them up and takin' their things cause they can't fight back. Or laugh at the bigger girl who just wanted to give you a damn towel to be nice, 'cause she's not like the pretty skinny girls or whatever.

...that sounds really stupid.

Mhmn! It is! And then there's school work and lame teachers on top of it and I could never get the work done so I just said 'screw it' and bounced. It's not like I had any friends anyway...

You wouldn't wanna be friends with anyone like that anyway.

Yeah...

[Still sucked, not being able to experience most things that would have been done in middle school until he was fifteen, almost sixteen.]

It's weird that there weren't any nice people though. Even the Organization wasn't that bad.

[Aside from the trying-to-kill-each-other parts, they were generally pretty civil.]

There were. I just never knew any of 'em. And most of 'em were overshadowed by the jerks anyway. You noticed them more than you'd ever notice the nice guy bein' quiet in the corner.

Or they were the ones gettin' picked on. That happened a lot, too.

[Especially to Yukio, until he got older.]

...couldn't you just- punch these guys?

That's the shit that got me in trouble.

Oh.

Well, I think I would've been in trouble, too.

... why? Is that what you woulda done?

Well, yeah, if someone was being that much of a jerk to me.

Heh...

[They're not that different, are they?]

Guess if we went to school together we'd be in trouble all the time, huh? Punchin' out all the jerks.

...yeah, I guess so.

[For some reason, it's kind of fun to imagine. Maybe that's what it would've been like going to school with Hayner?]

Woulda been--

[Nice to have a friend...]

Woulda been pretty fun, I think.

I think so, too.

Well. We can still get in trouble here, right?

[Not that they should, but. Honestly trouble is how they met?]

Heh. Hell yeah we can.
