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.))

video;
Decide on just one thing first, then!
[she didn't do this on purpose? she asked only one question needing an answer...]
no subject
Still, he tries to make sense of what he's looking at. ]
that archer is the same tall and muscly guy that threatens to kill animals right??
is he your [ momentary struggle - what word should he even try? ] dad??
1/2
and also she went on a date with him.]
Reply to me with video.
[seriously, bolin, she likes that better than text.]
2/2
Archer threatened to kill animals?
[wait for it.]
Wh-Why do you think he's my dad?!
no subject
Because he's at your place cooking for you? [ Presumably...? Unless there are other purposes for that apron.
But wait. That's a no, which means -
Bolin's mouth drops open somewhat, surprise clear over his face, because that is saucy. ]
Oh my god.
no subject
What... What is it? What are you thinking?
[becoming pretty worried, now.]
no subject
It's a weird feeling.
On one hand, he considers just giving in and answering the question honestly in order to spare himself from being yelled at.
But on the other. ]
Nothing. [ While acting casual, a smug look on his face while he leans closer to the screen. ] I just didn't know you were so mature!
no subject
is he thinking something untoward about her and archer? it's ridiculous to consider them in that way (maybe), she hardly ever thinks of it, but—]
That's right. I've never told you about Archer before, have I? It's my mistake.
[—maybe she should explain.]
no subject
[ He says it fairly innocuously, and his expression is one of genuine confusion. Once it's out there however, he realises how it might sound - like he's accusing her or something?
Of course, he isn't! Even though he'd sort of thought that she liked him, it doesn't matter since he has a girlfriend anyway.
(Girls are so confusing. He gets why Mako wanted time to figure himself out.)
She sure progressed fast after her first kiss though, and maybe that's the most puzzling part. ]
no subject
[she just pauses, then, for a very long time. her mouth hangs open like she's forgetting to close it and she stares wide-eyed at bolin without considering how uncomfortable it might make him feel.
it appears as though she's genuinely speechless.
yet she's not panicking, she's not mad, and she's not blushing.]
Archer isn't my boyfriend.
[it's said completely truthfully.]
no subject
But she does answer, and it seems so honest even as Bolin's eyebrows rise in disbelief. ]
Uh? [ Maybe she doesn't realize that they're dating? (Sometimes Mako didn't realize that he had a girlfriend.) ] Are you... sure?
no subject
if he was waiting for her to look pissed, good news! he won't be waiting that much longer at all!]
Of course I'm sure! Why wouldn't I be sure about something like that?!
[she's mad more because of the insinuation she'd be in a relationship with someone and lie about it, rather than him figuring out her dirty little secret.]
no subject
Bolin's leaning a little further back now, as if Rin could somehow squeeze through the screen to smack him. ]
Well, you know! Sometimes you do all the things couples do, and don't realize that you're dating until someone points it out!
[ There aren't sitcoms where Bolin comes from, but if there were, he'd be a big fan. ]
no subject
Not for me. [rin fluffs up and raises her nose.] If I chose someone to be my boyfriend, they would know about it. We would have discussed it between us. It would be official.
[keep in mind that this is the girl who technically has a boyfriend, and it'd taken an outside party to kind of make it obvious "hey, you two like each other".]
no subject
He shrugs, privately thinking that Rin looks more cute than authoritative when she puts her nose up like that, but wisely keeping the commentary to himself.
Instead, he moves on. ]
So! That gun you got can create jewels? [ What a moneymaker. ] That's a cute turtleduck by the way.
[ Even though there's no... shell... ]
no subject
It doesn't "create" jewels, and the rhinestones are free of much real gem content whatsoever.
[she relaxes, but she's still judging you, bolin. oops.]
What's a turtleduck...?
no subject
Anyway, he looses significant interest once it's revealed that the gun isn't some kind of magic goldmine; rhinestones holding as much importance to him as sequins might. ]
A turtleduck is like... [ It's so weird that none of the animals that he's so familiar with are unheard of here. He doesn't even know how to describe something so basic.
So he works with what he's got, and points to Rin's little companion. ]
Like that. But they're yellow, and they have shells on their backs.
no subject
Like Odette? [that's the baby's name. rin scoops her up and holds her closer to her jewel, so bolin can get a better peek.] Odette isn't yellow. She also doesn't have a shell on her back. I fail to see the resemblance.
no subject
It's the only comparison I could think of. [ His answer is a little helpless, quiet and shrugging. He's never seen a bird like that; at least not one that didn't have a shell.
He looks back at it then, peering at the little animal. ]
What's it called?
no subject
She's a swan—a very young one. Swans, in adulthood, become huge beautiful white birds that live in the water and can fly, too.
[she's patient in describing everything, at least.]
