[when the SFC turns on, there’s actually two people visible. One is Shiro, and he looks less than pleased. He has removed his coat at some point, and now Rin is wearing it. Rin certainly looks worse for wear. Whatever happened has left him with a mostly-bandaged arm, and several spots of skin that aren’t covered by the jacket are red and faintly blistered. He doesn’t look terribly happy either but he’s not frowning nearly as much as Shiro.

They're also up on the island, sitting on the beach.]

Good afternoon. We, ah, felt it was important to let you all know something-

[Rin cuts in before Shiro can fully get to his explanation]

Dad broke the ocean.

[Shiro sputters at that and is quick to protest.]

I did not break the ocean!

Yeah, okay, we both broke it. Well. I mean-- I dared Dad to bless the ocean and it kinda worked better than we were expectin’.

That doesn’t mean it's broken, it’s just a little holier than it was yesterday.

[Whoops they were supposed to be talking to the SFC, not each other. So Shiro turns his attention back to that.]

We just wanted to warn any residents who might be affected by holy water, you probably won’t want to go swimming for a day or two.

Still think it’s funny to say you broke it...

[The feed shuts off just after Shiro smacks Rin on the back of his head.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

No.

It would be better to work on you now while your family's still here. That way if there were problems, I'd have the option of a second opinion.

They're my doctors, not you.

There's always the possibility that they'll leave without warning.

Then I'll go to the clinic.

You trust them more than me?

Yes!

[Why should he trust some one who goes poking around in his soul uninvited and makes comments about experiments and dissecting?]

I'm sure Maka would trust me.

Whatever. So not in the mood to deal with your creepy bullshit...

[He can't hang up because it's Shiro's SFC, so he just... shifts himself out of view.]

[Oh you hurt his feelings. So hurt.]

And like I said, we've got it covered. Rin doesn't need surgery anyway, he's got fast healing.

Not fast enough.

Stein.

[This is his 'okay I'm still trying to be nice, but no more messing around' voice.]

Rin's been through enough today. Knock it off, alright?

[Stein has trouble reading people when he can't see their souls.]

Did you willingly test your abilities on him or was it an accident?

Jesus, Stein, it was an accident! Do you really think I would hurt my own son like that?

[Mephisto, yes, but not Rin!]

I've met worse.

Besides, it's not like you could test it on yourself.

[He was going to question that, but oh yeah Stein's entire world is crazy.]

Exorcists have other ways of testing the potency of holy water. It's not like we regularly shove demons in to make sure we blessed the water right.

Do you have any of those "other ways" here in Vatheon?

Of course!

[Wait for it...]

Rin's hair is demonic too. We were pulling out stands of it to test whether the water was blessed or not.

And he splashed some on himself?

[SIGHHHH]

I've blessed large bodies of water before, but even then it was never an entire lake or anything like that. We moved far enough down the shoreline that we should have been a good distance away from any blessed water.

... did he fall in?

He tripped and fell in, yes.

That's something I would expect from Black*Star. I guess you meet the same sorts of people in every world.

Ah, well, kids are clumsy. At least it was something fixable.
