Rintaro

Rin was stood close by Unyie-san, he knew he was outmatched in this fight and had been with her, silently watching events unfold. As the life faded from Argumail's eyes all he thought was one thing - good riddance. His face, however, betrayed none of his thoughts. Rin was in the shadows just behind Unyie.

If we have any Naruto fans up in here, listen to this

Once again, Rin was surprised to say the least of being pulled around by Unyie-san, but complied as he trusted her.

"Violet?! I guess I just couldn't see that colour in this light.." he said as he was tugged to safety. Thinking back, Rin realised one of those lines implied that the singer must be dead. In his head that either meant he was a psycho or it was a joke - better go for the safer option.

Rin's eyes widened slightly as Celes linked arms with him. She said that they should talk, and Rin gave it a quick once-over in his head.

If he trusted her this much, he may as well continue to do so. Turning his head to Celes, he was tempted to try what people called a smile, but decided to go with the safer route.

Closing his eyes he nodded - "I'd like that, Celes-san"

Rins head was telling him that having somebody like this knowing your location 24/7 wasn't the best idea, but his heart told him Arekkusu sincerely wanted to put this behind him.

With a flick of his wrist, he accepted the request. "Alright." he agreed simply.

(OOC goodnight it's midnight where I am)

Rin watched as his friend exited the

scene. Jeez, stroke of luck or what? Looking back at Arekkusu and ignoring Tyrius, he decided to give a peace offering.

"I-I think that Kazuya is one of the Crimson Inquisition? Good luck anyway, and I hope we can put this 'incident' behind us.."

Rin looked confused as he was tugged with surprising strength towards the very man he was trying to hide from mere seconds ago. Ah, well. He said he'd go if she wanted.

In the meantime he pondered under what circumstances somebody would turn violet.. Rin hadn't seen it before but again, there were many things he hadn't.

Rin looked down, bewildered at his best friend's face. "Christ, Eth. You were the last person I expected to see. Fancy putting me down now?"he asked politely. "I thought you were out of town?!" he asked with more forcefulness.

(OOC sorry my character can't understand what you must be feeling..)

Rin let the guy have his spiel, listening closely to what was being said. Saying he won't allow players to be hurt and instantly asking for a duel to the death didn't sit right with him. Seemed to him Arekkusu was as unstable as the other male.

"Birds of a feather flock together I guess. It seems you're the real threat to be dealt with here.." he raised his hand to send a duel request.

Rin had sat, watching the events play out like a film before him. Intrigued by the way they forgot about him in the heat of it all - must remember that.

Then Arekkusu pointed to the door and Rin decided he may as well follow than be the odd one out.

You could feel the change in the aura emanating from Rin. His eyes narrowed as a sword was levelled at Unyielding, who in his eyes had done nothing wrong. On top of this Tyrius had admitted he would kill in cold blood.

In a commanding voice coated in venom Rin warned them. "You. Arekkusu. I'd HIGHLY recommend taking Tyrius home, before you piss me off."

He sheathed his scimitar across his back, readying his hands and standing. To his advantage he was trained in Martial Arts IRL and it seemed the boy had forgotten you can't do damage with a sword in a safe zone.

But you could still throw or restrain a person...

Rin had decided to trust this girl enough to give her his name - that meant a lot to him, so he didn't mind the head pat.

"Violet?" Rin half-laughed, "I've never seen that before!". Then he returned to his normal self after that rare display of emotion. "The trick, Unyielding-san is to not get caught.."

I'd also like to point out the combat applications of Stealth aren't well explained.

Treasure hunting, eh? Sounded like his type of thing.. Even more enticing was the fact it was a 'super-rare' item. He wasn't sure if she actually meant super-rare or if there was even such a thing, but he cached it in his memory banks anyway. "Thanks for the warning, Unyielding-san. You seem like a good person." he replied, even trying the thing where people curve their mouths. Rin wasn't sure if he was going it right or not, but at least he tried.

He tapped his lightly-stubbled chin. "Well, Unyield-san, if I wasn't practicing being a ninja then how would I get any better at it?" he said with some humour. Taking his eyes off her, he did a casual frontflip off the boulder and said "But we can go up to him if you insist."

Rin had once again subconsciously the least interesting thing in the room. The base of all stealth techniques, the human brain like stimulation so you keep yourself as underwhelming as possible and you tend to be ignored. In a second, he realised this was the closest to other people he had been in a long time. "M-My name is Rin." he murmured shyly.

Rin gave her a sideways glance. "There's a boy over there sharpening his blade, by the state of his gear it looks like he's going somewhere so I was going to follow." he said slyly, before turning to her. He was still perched on the boulder "You're that girl from that breakfast and when Tyrius broke down.." he said, before continuing. He nodded, as if satisfied. "My name is Rin. May I ask what you are doing here?"

Rin sat in silence, he'd always been on his own. I guess that made him lonely by Celes' definition, though he felt fine and exhibited no signs of sickness. Hmm.. He'd have to look this up more when the time came. Chewing on some bread he brought out of his inventory, he looked at the faces gathered around him and felt.. something. It was the opposite of pain and that was the only way he could describe it.

Rin had taken the offer to sit with the group, taking an exquisite wooden chair for himself. As the people spoke in turn about who they left behind, he had to ask.

"I'm sorry but what is loneliness?" He asked quietly.

Rin observed the pink-haired girl stroll up to him. Remember your training.. Be the rock. That was when she called out to him. Rin was so startled, he nearly fell off the boulder - "W-Wait how did you spot me?"

Rin lightly tapped the pink-haired girl on the shoulder. "Excuse me, I believe you dropped this" he opened his hand to reveal a few mats. "Wait a second.." he said quietly, recognising the pair of females.

"We've met before, haven't we?" he queried.

Rin nodded. This one - Arekkusu - made the most sense of them all, he wasn't leaking water or talking in binary.. This world was indeed strange.

He continued sharpening his blade, listening in as Arekkusu said slaps couldn't hurt. "Indeed, I heard they hurt but won't let your HP drop unless you have <<Martial Arts>>." Rin added.

Rin was crouching on a similar rock, disguised against the dark gloom of the eastern sky, piercing blue eyes watching the man.

'Hmm.. Well it seems like there's something afoot here, I guess I should hold back for the time being and see what happens.' Rin pondered.

Rin was walking casually down the cobbled street outside the cafe. He was here by sheer coincidence, as he was actually on his way home - then he turned to look through the nearest window as people do.

His ice blue eyes surveying the interior with little interest. He thought he recognised somebody, but the window was misty.

The movement of the whetstone stopped and Rin looked up, black hair, piercing ice blue eyes. "You all do realise that this one has literally thought about killing, and that's it?" He said with no emotion,looking round the assembled people.

"I'd say taking the sword off him and a good sleep is what Tyrius here really needs, not exchanging blood."

Rin looked down at the face of this female, a few things didn't strike right with him - she had instantly gave her name, valuable intelligence and the other was she had something wrong with her face.

It was curled at the corners. Was it some sort of spasm? In any case she seemed to have a secondary objective to having fun.. Without further conversation, he slipped away - "Thank you for the information.. Celes..".

In a few seconds he was lost in the shadows cast by the numerous snowdrifts around the lake.
