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.]

video//filter//to: Mephisto

Oi. Clown.

We gotta talk.

[Exactly what Asato thinks.]

Does he ? That's bad...

Yeah...

[He takes in a breath and lets it out. There's no use getting worked up over it.]

... Yukio's smart as hell, though. If he figures there's any funny business he can do somethin' about it.

[Maybe you should, Rin.]

I believe you but... It would cost nothing to warn him. Muraki is an extremely dangerous person.

[If he does, Yukio will just tell him he needs to calm down and that he's being irrational again.]

... yeah I will.

[Try to.

It's debatable if Yukio would listen or not.]

[Maybe that he would listen if Yukio knew what Muraki did.]

I could talk to him too. I personally... experienced what Muraki is able to do.

[Rin snorts at that]

Good luck catchin' him outside of work.

[Damn.]

And I won't risk to go to a place where I can meet Muraki... But I... I could tell you...

... yeah, I guess it'll be good to have somethin' to go on.

[This will be difficult.]

First of all, he can 'feed' on people's energy, like a vampire drinks blood. If the person has spiritual powers of special abilities, it's all the better for him.

[And it is not a pleasant experience. Not at all.]

...

[Shit. Now Rin is really hoping Yukio is doing a better job of keeping that little... issue under wraps.

He makes a face and a noise. Really, it's the only reaction he can come up with while being silently even more worried for his brother.]

Eughh...

[Little issue ? Why does this sound bad ?]

That's the word. He... did this to me. Amongst other things. [Asato closes his eyes, trying not to remember the feeling of the scalpel cutting through his skin and flesh.]

[Because it is.]

This guy is a freak...

[Asato slightly shivers and hugs himself. He is not cold though.]

You have no idea how much.

... you're really not okay talkin' about this, are you?

[Rin can be pretty dense sometimes, but even he doesn't miss that shiver.]

That's true... But if it can help others, I have to.

[But that still hurts.]

You shouldn't have to push yourself though...

I know. But I don't want to happen to others what happened to me. Or to my friend Hisoka...

... you wanna come inside for a bit? Might be better than talkin' out here.

Oh ! only if I don't bother you ?! [Very good Asato. Maybe you should have asked earlier.]

No, of course not!

[He motions to the door, picking up the rest of the boxes and giving a whistle. Aurelio sits up, looking at Rin lazily. He almost appears to want to fall back asleep, but he rolls over and pads in to the house.]

Thank you, Rin-kun.

[He helps with the boxes and then turns towards the lazy animals.] Cinnamon, come here !

[The puppy immediatly rushes to his master, barking happily. Sorry Aurelio.]

[Aurelio is less than pleased at the noise. He bounces back and swats at Cinnamon (though not with claws out) before tearing in to the house and running to his favorite high windowsil.]

Oops.. guess that was a bit much for him.

[Cinnamon backs away a little, whining a bit, and Asato takes him in his arms. He is not used to such feline demonstrations]

Sorry about that...

Nah, it's cool. He's usually pretty chill but he'll let some one know if he's not happy.

[Rin takes Kuro off his head and sets him on a foot rest in the living room. The Nekomata barely even wakes up at it.

After that he goes to the window and picks up the kitten carefully. There's a slight protesting noise, but as soon as he's in Rin's arms Aurelio curls up and starts purring.]

See? He's fine.

Hello Aurelio ! You're a cute kitty, do you know that ?

[Asato reaches to scratch the kitten's ears and smiles. If only dogs could purr too.]
