video 💎 un: Tohsaka Rin

[the video opens to display the... somewhat incriminating desk of one rin tohsaka. are those vials and knives? yes, those are vials and knives. a few of the vials contain weird-colored liquids but don’t think about it too much.

apparently this is no reason for a tiny cygnet not to be hopping all over everywhere, chirping happily and nibbling away at a slice of apple rin holds between chopsticks. the gray downy baby swan wears a black collar inlaid with beautiful amethysts and diamonds. lazily leaning her cheek onto her hand, she speaks.]


I’ve developed a means of repelling that godawful holiday plant and withering any sprigs of mistletoe in your immediate vicinity. Simply state clearly,

"Verkümmern, Mistel."

And they’ll die. The catalyst for the enchantment has been sprinkled all across Chantes, so the spell should work wherever you are. Just don’t say the words wrong; I can’t be held responsible for what might happen, in that case.

[r.i.p. thirst. anyway, rin reveals a strange object that those more modern-familiar in alastair will recognize as a bedazzler gun.]

Now, then.

[rin sets down the apple (much to baby swan's dismay!) and calls to the servant carrying a tea tray behind her.]

Archer.

[a tall man in black armor and a pink apron glances over his shoulder. only his back is visible.

she spins her finger, gesturing for him to turn around. he does so with a rather impressive line face. there's a sword bedazzled out of shiny silver rhinestones stuck right to the front of his apron, just at chest level. rin faces the network again.]


Can anyone tell me what this [she lifts up the bedazzler gun and frowns in disgust/confusion.] is? The designs it creates are awfully tacky.

((OOC: The mistletoe-deactivating spell words will actually work, per discussion with the mods! Feel free to do whatever you want with it. Archer may reply to some tags/threads in this post.))

[She balks to discuss it with another magic user- with anyone potentially intelligent enough to figure out the formula, but... If she spoke about it in the vague terms she'd learned of it first herself, the same she'd been willing to give her visitors... That would be fine. (Right?)]

Is is a spell capable of creating the miasma werewolves and other creatures require to survive in a world encroached upon by humans. The ultimate magic my ancestors all strived to perfect.

[And Gilgamesh, well. There were untold magical times accessible through that Gate.]

Trust me, I already planned on putting it to use. No mistletoe for me. That's in... German or something, right?

I am, I suppose? I mean, I like animals more than I like people.

[ Is that a bad thing to admit to in a conversation like this? ]

I would be happy to, really, I'm honored that you would trust me.

Because it's still a gun.

[ and from the tone of his voice, barbaric enough to judge. there are far more elegant ways promoting the same outcome. ]

Gosh, it sounds so fascinating... Is everyone in your family a mage like you?

[Her name is reverse? Plus, Tohsaka...] You're Japanese? I'm American. [Just making conversation.]

I've seen magic firsthand, and what it can do to people. It's never good, no matter what the intentions.

[The worst possible mistake one can make when dealing with Johanna: getting defensive]

[Good luck]


Don't get your panties in your twist. It's a compliment.

[And a cackle. Sorry, Rin]

[ German...? is there some reason the words sound kind of like his own language, then? he'd ask, but he knows it's nothing she has any way of knowing about, instead intending to remember. ]

I see. Blood ties, just like the half-humans of the Order. So there must be something special about that background of yours.

( she smirks and, by Andraste's sanctified arse is it hard not to laugh. this is too easy. ) Hey there, you were the one who asked. It seems we are in agreement, if not exactly alike in--fervour. ( really, she should be soothing or at least sorry, but it's always amusing to see when she can rile someone up in a mostly harmless way. this is, of course, all teasing. in the meantime she manages to find some she remembered being in the vicinity when she was last passing through around here. Hawke takes the sprig in hand and studies it for a moment. )

It wasn't with that man, was it? Your servant. ( how else to explain the apron. )
keystaff: (That will make me happy)

[Mostly he was feeling better about not being an idiot, since he wasn't the only one who'd made that mistake.

But now she's angry again, and he's really reconsidering the part about not being an idiot. Merlin stares for a moment, mouth slightly agape before he snaps it shut.

Yeah...erm, I think my mistress is calling me.

What? No.

Guns are just ... [ there's a toss of his hand. ] There's better ways of getting the same result. Whatever tickles your pickle.

[Hellboy sometimes does have a problem reacting too viscerally to things, and it always helps to take a step back when he wants to calm down. After how hot he came into this conversation, he figures this is a good way for them to relate to each other. They're both from Earth, at least.]

I know. I just don't want people to get too comfortable with it and think it's something they can play with.
