[It took a few days, but Kirei managed to find the information he was looking for - but that doesn't explain why he was covered in snow, nor the nasty looking cut on his cheek]

That woman spoke the truth: there is no way out. No entries or exits, with the parameter closed in. The residents supplied information about three gates in the North, South-West and South-East area, but only of warnings and vague descriptions. The residents themselves see nothing wrong, nor do they seem to notice the state of this world.

[...though if one is to look closely, the tell-tales sign of a frown are beginning to form.]

To what extent do these “gods” need us to achieve their goals...

[ Wow, so it's that dude that ~*SPOILERS*~!!! There's silence for a suitable amount of time as Rin studies his features, taking in every single detail as though it were a reminder of the past. That's what he was truly - a physical, breathing manifestation of events that occurred well over ten years ago.

Her instinctual opinion of him wasn't too far off from the truth leaving her only to question how attuned she was as a child to the intent of others. It may have been based off of petty envy towards a man who stood so close to her father and it was due to that she dismissed it when he adopted a more prominent role in her life.

The years only made her wiser and when dealing with a man like Kirei Kotomine, she's willing to exercise some caution. So instead of screeching at him for events he's yet to encounter in his life, she'll grant him the look of one terribly uninterested in his findings. ]


A lot of help that is, Kirei. [ There's an edge of mockery in her voice. ] Is that all you've managed to discover during your captivity here?

Well, that's the mystery, isn't it? Though you seem to have gotten your bearings quite well! Better than myself, even!

You would say if they were truly gods, they wouldn't need our help to start with, right? What would there be that they couldn't just do themselves?

[ a slight sigh. ] It's likely they are just impostors with some powerful technology to bring us all here or something.

Wouldn't the better question be why we were placed in these various houses? Or.. perhaps what this division of strength is really intended for?

[Raikou shrugs, chin propped lightly on his knuckles as he watches this man with somber russet eyes.]

It could just be me, but it might be time to look past the obvious surface to figure out the layer of purpose that no undoubtedly lay underneath.

It does indeed! Especially with the strange lack of color... In honesty, I have found that takes more getting used to than the layout of the place! That much is fairly straightforward.

But yes! I have spoken to that Thor fellow, though only briefly.

ALL OF THOSE DAYS OF HIM HEMMING HER SKIRT AND PLAYING NOT!MOM...

[ While it bothers her immensely to hear him speak her family name, she manages to mind her tongue with the topic. ]

Concerned for my well-being still, are you? [ She has little knowledge of where he's currently from - as far as she knows, at his current 'age', he's her legal guardian. ] This place isn't all too bad. It could use some improvements in decor, the food isn't all that great, the people here are... [ A pause.

Because she can go on forever in this manner. ]
Never mind all of that though. Do you want to explain the obvious flaw between the two of us?

[It's that same laughter that haunts your dreams, priest. HIS ENTERTAINMENT HAS ARRIVED]

To what extend, indeed. I very much doubt they are 'gods', but I hardly need to lecture a man of your Church on that subject. Thinking of them in such a way would be blasphemous, would it not?

I'm sorry, but... may I ask how you learned there was absolutely no way out?

[From the way the man phrased it, he wasn't going off the serving spirits' word, but had obtained proof for himself; perhaps hidden somewhere in the parts of his phrasing Allen didn't quite understand.]

AND THAT CAT HE PROMISED SHE COULD HAVE IF SHE GOT GOOD GRADES... she never got it though :(

[personal profile] gandere 2011-12-22 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
That's the last you remember?

[ While she was expecting him to not outright say it, there was a bit of hope in her mind that maybe in his youth his lips were a little more loose. Like his sex drive. ]

No, they can't be proud. Regardless, we should figure out everything about this place soon.

[He frowns a bit, watching the man carefully.]

I haven't tried to exit through the gates; all do seem to be guarded. What makes you say that...?

[It is a troubling matter, but--]

For that matter, I think that many are looking to escape farther than the city. They wish to return 'home'.

That's true. No matter whether it was magic, technology or something else entirely, getting all these people in this place must have been a lot of effort. It can't just have been some whim of theirs, there must be some purpose.

Even though it wouldn't surprise me if said purpose ended up being something really lame.

[identity profile] oikoumene.livejournal.com 2011-12-24 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
It is strange, isn't it? Ha, but all the mysteries here, they're certainly intriguing! I can only be excited by the prospects!

No, not at all! We only had friendly conversation, and he welcomed me to his house. Nothing useful.

[VIDEO; Don't be so boring, Kirei]

[By contrast, he's very much amused. One of his favourite playthings is here!]

No one's path is decided before they walk it, Kirei. Every path through one's life has forks that you must choose for yourself.

[Sweeping an arm out in a wide gesture]

Such as now. You've been given an opportunity.... more so for you than me. Now... what will you do?

Other than your uselessness?

[ Rin Tohsaka, ladies and gentlemen. ]

You know that if I do, I'm obligated to tell you as my guardian. [ Without realizing the error of her ways, she continues. ] As it stands, we're responsible for each other while we're here in this place. Let's make sure we don't get taken by surprise in this place. The first thing we should do is designate a meeting place in case this communication device fails to operate in the future.

[ A pause. ]

A day would be good too. I don't want to have to see you every day, but maybe we should talk every few days to make sure there's nothing foul bothering either of us.
