TEST-DRIVE MEME





Maybe you've considered appping a new character but you're not sure how well they would adjust to the in-game scenario? Well, here's a chance to give it a try!

• Post with a character journal you'd like to voicetest or you've considered apping to Ruby City. Feel free to play them as newcomers or as if they've been here for a while - the setting is your own choice.

•Respond to other threads with new characters or with characters who are already in the game.

• Explore different interactions, find castmates, develop possible CR - anything you want, as long as you have fun!

Rin Tohsaka || Fate/Zero || Why would you willingly submit yourself to this?

Hello? Hello? Can anyone hear me?

[ There's a small girl who can't be any older than eight frantically talking into the watch. She looks scared and why shouldn't she be? She's all alone in a strange new place without her parents, blah blah blah.

Really, it's a lot easier to get things if people pity you a little more. Don't mind her playing that up for a bit. ]

[Don't be afraid, small child. There is currently a dead-eyed priest looming behind you. He looks at her for a moment before speaking. He doesn't appear particularly sympathetic or to mind her display of fear. (What's wrong with fearful children?)

This is someone else he hadn't expected to see, but after Claudia and Caren, he can't really be surprised. Who's next? Tokiomi? His father?
]

Rin Tohsaka. I can hear you.

[Of course, because he's there in person. Skulking around as usual and appearing without a sound. But in his defense, his apartment isn't far from the train station.]

[ Suddenly, it's as though her personality swings about in 180 degrees just as she twirls on her foot to glare at him. ]

Oh, so you're the one responsible for this?! I knew I couldn't trust you, stupid Kirei! Abducting little girls and sneaking up on them whenever they call out for help!

You should be ashamed of yourself, but I guess that's impossible since you're already too shameful to add any more shame to it!
seeyousuffer: (46)

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2013-01-20 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't seem surprised by this outburst, continuing to stand where he is with the same blank expression. This isn't something he's unfamiliar with. He takes her insults calmly.]

I'm not responsible for our current predicament. We've both been abducted. This is a pocket dimension outside of time and space in which we are trapped.

It wasn't my intention to "sneak up" on you. [It's not his fault if you're not perceptive enough.] I'm merely offering my assistance.

[personal profile] anklegandr 2013-01-20 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
What makes you think I want your assistance, Kirei?

[ She has every reason to be wary of him even now, but she treats him more like he's her personal punching bag. ]

That's what you get for leaving me all my own. I bet this place took you captive to punish for you child neglect.
seeyousuffer: (38)

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2013-01-20 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
You seemed rather frightened, Rin. [Yes, just like a terrified little child.] I deemed it my responsibility to intervene.

[He pauses.]

I at no point have left you on your own. [You're not his responsibility. Which is good, because he has no desire to look after children.]

But if that's so, what do you believe you are being punished for?

[personal profile] anklegandr 2013-01-20 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Leaving you alone with my father.

[ Kicking the ground with her toes, her gaze falls down. ] Yes, yes you did. You said you had some business to tend to with the Church and my father's corpse!
seeyousuffer: (39)

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2013-01-20 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
You hardly had a choice in the matter, being a mere child. [The War was no place for children.]

Your father's... [Another pause from Kirei. That's interesting. Although she looks no different, she must come from another time, like Claudia and Caren. He doesn't feel the least amount of concern over Tokiomi's death, but he does wonder how he was killed.] I see. This must be more of the Fifth Magic at work. I was not aware of your father's death. Before I was brought here, he was still alive.

I did tell you there was a distinct possibility that he would die. If I had business to attend to, I am sure it was important.

[personal profile] anklegandr 2013-01-20 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
He died because you probably did something! I told you if you were going to fight with him, that you needed to make sure he was going to be okay!

[ Now she's just outright shrieking at him. ] Both of them are gone and now all I have is stupid you!

[ Just... soak up all of this little girl anguish, Kirei. ]
seeyousuffer: (38)

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2013-01-20 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[What he's feeling now... It's similar to that sensation that washes over him when Claudia is in pain or Caren in misery. It's very satisfying, somehow, although part of him still rebels against this form of pleasure. He remains as calm as Rin is angry.]

I told you that was impossible, but I'm certain I did nothing to cause your father's death. I can assure you of that.

Both of them? [Then she's orphaned? He had known Tokiomi's death was very possible, but his wife had died as well? He wouldn't have expected that. And, according to Rin's words, he must be her guardian now.] So you've lost your mother as well. What a shame. [Never have the words "what a shame" sounded more wooden and lifeless.]

[personal profile] anklegandr 2013-01-20 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, both of them.

[ Her mood falters when the seriousness of the situation begins to sink in. Kirei doesn't remember any of this which means any answers she wants about the Fourth Holy Grail War will remain unanswered. ]

It doesn't matter... They're dead and you're the one my father left responsible for me. If you don't want to do that, then fine. I can figure it out here on my own.
seeyousuffer: (33)

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2013-01-20 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
That's unfortunate.

And now I'm your sole guardian. [Being left in care of a child... It wouldn't be his ideal situation. No wonder he'd left. He hadn't been interested in raising his own child.]

As I said, I am offering my assistance. [Not that he's exactly thrilled about it. He might as well. It's his duty, after all.] This is no place for a child.

[personal profile] anklegandr 2013-01-20 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh, you're really going to help me?

[ That surprises even her as she looks up towards him. The fear that was present before returns with the concept that Kirei was going to take care of her. ]

I said it doesn't matter. I can do it on my own!
seeyousuffer: (Default)

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2013-01-20 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[He nods. He's only said so twice.

But why would anyone be afraid of Kirei?
]

I doubt that's true. There are many dangers in the city, and you're ill-equipped to handle them.

[personal profile] anklegandr 2013-01-21 10:36 am (UTC)(link)
You don't know that. Father taught me a lot before he, before he, before he--!!

[ Okay, so she can't even finish her statement. What good will she be on her own? ]
seeyousuffer: (20)

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2013-01-21 11:20 am (UTC)(link)
Died.

[Kirei can finish her statement, no problem.]

I'm sure he did, but if even your father could be caught unawares, someone of much less skill should be more careful. Perhaps you should learn from his example.

This is not the War, but there are hazards enough. Monsters and other hostile beings you will not be able to defend yourself against. Would you really rather be left on your own?

[With this question he looks as if he might consider complying with her wishes. Which might be true, but more likely, he just wants to see her reaction.]

[personal profile] anklegandr 2013-01-21 11:30 am (UTC)(link)
No, but it's different here. You keep talking about these hazards, but I haven't seen anything for myself.

[ Go on and feed the pint-sized Tohsaka to a monster. It might make you smile. ]

I want to see!
seeyousuffer: (19)

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2013-01-21 11:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Don't tempt him.]

I have no reason to lie to you.

[Look, kid, he doesn't really care about you.]

But if you insist, I can show you.

[personal profile] anklegandr 2013-01-21 11:42 am (UTC)(link)
[ She's a perfectly healthy snack. ]

I want to see. So you have no choice, but to show me if you ever want me to believe you. Ever.
seeyousuffer: (12)

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2013-01-21 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[Not that he's concerned with whether Rin believes him, but showing the child monsters could be interesting.]

All right. We'll make our way to the woods, as that's the best place to find them during the day. Follow me.

[Claudia wouldn't approve of this, but Claudia isn't here, and Kirei doesn't care. He leads the way to the station, then down the railroad tracks, toward the forest.]
