Down under the night sky, I lay in wait...
Who: Rin and Bon
When: Day 77, late evening, way after the teams return
Where: By the river
What: The two exorcist derps need to have a talk
Style: Action
Warnings: None
Status: CLOSED
[Yet another Core had been retrieved, but returning also revealed that in the effort to find one of their own, two more had vanished. Even if she hadn't known them very well, she had spent time with Nezumi and Shion, and hearing that had dulled the joy that had come from being able to make more of the Bastion grow.
It wasn't fair. For every step forward, it felt like there was a step back, and it was taking a toll on a lot of people, Rin being among them. It hurt to think she couldn't protect the people that they had found, and as much as tried to tell herself that she couldn't save everyone, it was just that difficult to convince herself of it.
After things had settled down from the return, Rin had quietly wandered away from the group without speaking to anyone, eventually settling down next to the river, staring at the water with a tired, wary frown. She would have been fine if no one found her there, because the way she felt, she really didn't want to talk.]

[Rin frowns thoughtfully, and fidgets a bit until she more comfortable. It's not just people vanishing that has been bothering her, but now that she's gotten as much off her chest, she brings up another point.]
Why d'ya think the walls were like that? No way up or around, just... over. Seems kinda weird, doesn't it?
no subject
[They did seem to stretch on for quite a while, they probably surrounded the city.]
...I wonder if the city had trouble with other groups attacking.
no subject
[That makes her frown even more. The more they find out, the less they really know.]
Maybe...

[She sighs faintly, moving her arm to tuck some wayward strands of hair behind her pointed ear. The wound on her arm is healing at it's own pace, as her injuries usually do, but there's still the remnants of a red, burn-like mark where she was hit by the Scumbag's ooze.
She had wandered off while everyone was still talking, and had completely forgotten to get it wrapped up. It didn't even really hurt anymore, though, which led her to ignoring it in the first place.]
no subject
Did the monsters hurt you?
no subject
[Rin blinks and turns her arm around to look at it, not even catching that Bon is actually worried about her.]
Oh. Yeah I got hit by that Scumbag that showed up at the last minute... I had like... five or six Squirts on me and I didn't see it spittin' it's shit all over the place.
no subject
Here, I'll go get some bandages.
[He's already standing up to go, too.]
no subject
She's still grateful he doesn't make a big deal over it.]
'kay...
[She watches him leave, looking back at her arm and curiously prodding it with a finger.]
Ow.
[Okay, it still hurts.]
no subject
But anyway, he returns with some after a little bit.]
I only took a little bit from the supplies, since I figured you wouldn't need that much.
no subject
[For more than one reason, but she doesn't bring that up.
She moves so she's facing him, holding her arm out. She's used to this routine by now, with all the times Yuki had to patch her up from fights back home.]
... thanks, Bon.
