[Day 282] I'm covering my ears like kid... [OPEN]

Who: Rin, Oshawott, Kintaro (the Tepig)
Open: Open
When: Day 282, evening
Where: The Monument
What: The loss of a brother
Format: Will match!
Warnings: Rin's temper. :|

[Speaking to Otoha had taken up a decent chunk of Rin's afternoon. Not that she minded, it had been a nice conversation about the things he had planted via shards among other things, and the company was enjoyable. But she did have other things to do, like bringing dinner to the hospital once evening rolled around. After all, it wasn't like Yukio was going to drag himself away from his work to get food on his own.

With a happy hum and a tail wag, Rin headed to the hospital with Kintaro at her heels. She had no idea anything was even remotely off until she stepped through the entrance doors.

And that's when she saw Oshawott sitting on the floor in the lobby area, making distressed noises that almost sounded like crying. Rin entering got his attention, causing him to run over to her. He was chattering so fast she could barely catch what he was trying to tel her, but soon enough he had her hand in his tiny paw and was tugging her to Yukio's office.

... which was frighteningly empty.

His books, files, notepads were all still there, but her brother was nonexistent.

Feeling a tightness in her chest that she didn't want to feel, she tried to justify his absence, saying aloud that maybe he was with a patient, or had stepped out for a moment.

But Oshawott shook his head, and a word was understood that made her heart sink completely to her feet.

"Skyway."

Grabbing both Oshawott and Kintaro up she bolted from the hospital, calling Yukio's name frantically as tears burned painfully in the corners of her eyes. He couldn't, he wouldn't--

There was no reply. No chastising voice telling her calm down, keep her voice down. Not even a distant glint of light off familiar glasses.

As night came across the Bastion that evening, Rin wouldn't return to the kitchen nor to her apartment. Curled up with a still-crying Oshawott in her lap and Kintaro at her side, she sat in front of the Monument, face blotched red but tears no longer falling.

Just a blank stare out to the space far beyond the edge of the floating land that was their current home.]

I...

[It'd been well over a month now since she arrived at the Bastion, but she could still remember that awful feeling]

It was like I was... my mind was slipping away? Like... I was becoming somebody else...
scary_music: (Ahaha...)

... Really?

[It was quite a different situation in Ibuki's scenario, not that she had any idea just what it was. If she'd stayed any longer, though, she would've found out...]

I... don't get it, though... I mean, it was like... it didn't make any sense, I don't... I don't even get what was happening.

Whatever it was... it was gone when the Calamity hit...

Yeah...

I guess it doesn't matter now... now that it's just... all gone.

...

... ... I... I'm the only survivor from the island, somehow...
scary_music: (Too stressful!)

Yeah, yeah, I know, but, but...

You know...

It totally sucks that none of Ibuki's classmates are here, you know?! Seriously, screw the calamity!!

... Ibuki could use another hug.

Wait, wasn't Ibuki here to comfort you first??

[Either way, she's going for a hug with Rin]
