[ 08 ] ✿✿ [ Open ]
Characters:
Dark Rin & YOU!
Setting: Floors 100, 99, 96, dormitories & the cafeteria
Time: Through end of April to early May, general tower life catch all.
Format: Quick to start, will match.
Summary: For the first time in months, Rin is without a Servant bound to her. Not only that, she's being stalked by retrieval units and a number of other individuals. The question is if her mind can withstand the paranoia weighing down on it or if she'll just brush it off without a care.
Warnings: Usual Rin warning, all tw-content will be marked if it comes up. Floor 100 prompt is kind of squicky if you know the context (crest worms).
►►► FLOOR 100;
[ Rin isn't sure what compels her to come to this floor but while she's here, she doesn't see the home that she thought she might want to see. Sure, the Tohsaka mansion is nice, but the memory is so fuzzy that all this place can work with is that dark basement. Maybe there's a part of her deep inside that misses that musky place crawling with the vermin that's familiar with every inch of her body. At least when she was there she didn't have to worry about being betrayed or left behind because by that point in her life, she was completely alone. If anyone were to invade on her privacy here though, Rin might not respond favorably. After all, that's a very crucial bit from her childhood that she might like to keep a secret. Even if she's unaware that others only see what they want to see and that the only thing giving away her privacy is her big mouth... ]
►►► FLOOR 99;
[ Her home floor or well, it used to be back before she died. Since she's returned to this body (a new one), something has been different. Is it because her vision is sharper than ever before that the light of the crystals bother her or is it something else? While she's not used to talking to herself, it has been lonely enough that she does slip up every now and again. ]
I see, I see now. This floor really is cursed to drive you mad, isn't it? [ Inane ramblings from a girl with red eyes and white hair shouldn't be all that strange to hear, right? ]
►►► FLOOR 96;
[ Her white hair matches this floor, so she's found some kind of solace in that. At least that's what she tells herself as she lays on the floor lazily with her hair spread out. Anytime she closes her eyes, her mind feels less and less burdened by her thoughts. Isn't it strange how that works out? It reminds her of how she was just a few weeks ago and then the vision of a knight in red bringing a sword down causes her to bolt upright. If anyone else was nearby to catch her, she'll just sneer in their general direction as though accusing them silently of invading her privacy. ]
►►► DORMITORIES;
[ Often Rin is paranoid. This doesn't end favorably for those who choose to play a prank by sneaking up on her and monsters that attempt to do the same end up ripped apart by her magecraft. This week, day and night, she can be found wandering the dormitory levels in her inability to sleep peacefully. Rarely does she visit her room, only going there when the paranoia of not doing so kicks in. While she's often contemplative, there are times instead where she's playing a prank of her own. The retrieval units that follow her nearby seem to have been scribbled on, messages drawn on them meant to antagonize someone, but who? And besides, who's crazy enough to get close to one to draw a penis on it's forehead?
Spoilers, it's Rin. She's the crazy one. In fact, she just might be acting out intentionally in order to draw out someone. ]
►►► CAFETERIA;
[ For the remainder of April, Rin can be found often pulling out the nutrition bars with a look of disappointment on her face. The past few months have spoiled her with Archer bringing her breakfast in bed, cooking lunch and dinner, and even being kind enough to bring her something in the middle of the night if she woke up from a nightmarenot that she's ever going to admit to that. Now she sees what it's like for others, but instead of sympathizing with them? ]
How droll. An individual of my standing shouldn't have to resort to eating this piss. [ And that's a bar thrown over her shoulder, possibly aimed at someone's head. ] I demand real food or else I'll starve!
[ Rin pls. No one cares. ]

[ Rin pls. No one cares. ]
no subject
Why? [ She's not all there today, uncle. ]
no subject
[He's restless for a variety of reasons. The worms don't let him rest.
He pauses, studying her. She doesn't seem to be focused at all.]
Rin, what's wrong? Can I help somehow?
no subject
[ They never played here so there's something seriously wrong with him. It has to be something wrong with him because he's frail and brittle, not like her. She's perfectly healthy now and can see everything clearly. ]
Why?
no subject
[He looks at the inoffensive greenery, the bright flowers, the tree limbs swaying slightly in the breeze. There's nothing to take offense to. It's a lovely place. He studies the scene thoughtfully, wondering if maybe...]
You don't see the park, do you?
no subject
[ Why is he bringing up the park when this is clearly the Matou mansion? With a frown, her gaze turns back towards her uncle. ]
The park isn't here, Uncle Kariya.
no subject
[It makes him glad when she calls him Uncle Kariya, but he's more concerned with how she's feeling.]
There are trees over there, and there's a slide, and the swings are over there...
[He points.]
It's springtime. You can't see it at all? [He wishes she could. He's almost afraid to ask her what she sees.]
no subject
[ How does he see that while she sees a musky basement from her past? It's worth asking later, but for now she stares up at him in an attempt to make the rest of the world blur around him. ]
No, but there are other floors to see spring at.
no subject
That's true. Maybe we should go to one of them instead.
[If whatever she sees here is upsetting her, then she shouldn't stay.]
no subject
no subject
[So many things that won't ever be, or won't happen again: this place reminds him of them.]
The reason I liked going to the park was that I could play with you and Sakura. So I'd rather spend time with you, instead.
no subject
[ The two of them spending time together with Kariya is an impossible task for now. While she cares for her sister, being around her and seeing the color of her hair only infuriates Rin beyond logical thought.
All she sees when she looks at her sister is a painful reminder and just how worthless her own sacrifice had been. Even if Archer praised her previously for being the only one to save her, it did no good. In the end, both her uncle and Sakura were like this. ]
She can use it in this place.
no subject
[He doesn't see why he wouldn't want to spend time with Rin as well.]
I'm sure she could. It's not easy, here. I want to do anything I can do help her.
[He pauses, looking at Rin. She looks so different from the little girl he remembers, but she's still the same person, he knows. He wishes she were happier. He feels helpless. He can't seem to do anything to make her happy, but that's all he wants.]
I wish we could all spend time together like we used to. [It seems like so long ago that they played together, especially since Rin and Sakura are so much older here.]
no subject
[ Rin suggests an idea she's not sure will work out in their favor. To have Sakura and her alongside each other is a gamble after their initial reactions.
If there's anyone who ranks high in Rin's heart, it is the girl named Sakura. ]
Spend time together.
