[Closed] The much needed talk
Who: Rin Tohsaka & Archer, possibly Kiritsugu Emiya later
Where: Memoria Park, Genessia
When: After Kiritsugu arrives
[Ever since Saber arrived with different memories than Archer and Rin, Archer had been well aware that anyone could arrive from any time and any kind of a story. Yet, if he had to make a bet, he wouldn't have bet on the next being Kiritsugu Emiya from the past.
While Archer could just ignore it and continue going on like he had, he didn't want to do that. The man had been the one who saved him, even if he didn't know it yet. And if he was going to be honest with Kiritsugu, he should also be honest with Rin. If she'd find out some other way, he'd never hear the end of it.
When Rin is out taking a walk, Archer returns to his physical form nearby and looks at her with his usual expression on his face.]
Rin. We need to talk.

Archer seems or more like sounds different than usual today or maybe it's the lack of sound from him today that makes Rin almost be prepared for.... something. Hell if she knows what to get ready for when he never tells her anything in advance.
Rin glances at Archer when he finally appears but the twisted jerk's poker face is as impossible to read as ever and the words don't give much away either. It's not difficult to put 1 + 1 together about this having more or less something to do with a recent arrival or add some math to that about other things too, possibly. He's still getting her usual face right back at him as if it's just a normal day. Really? Today and right now, Archer? Fine, this is totally fine... ]
About what?
[Not like she'll admit assuming or suspecting anything...]
no subject
You must have noticed me talking with Kiritsugu Emiya. Doesn't that make you want to ask questions? About how I know him?
no subject
Maybe [and turns to look away into the park again.] but it's more like more pieces to a puzzle to solve it on my own...
[And it's making her want to punch this stupid twisted idiot who's here with him. She can't, he sure chooses place for this talk well when it's one of the places where Rin doesn't want to fight.
Anyway, she's had even more time for figuring things out here, putting it all together and maybe her problem is just on whether or not she wants to admit any of it. Rin closes their distance, looking at his face.]
Hey, Archer, what do you see when you look into a mirror?
[Does she mean a real mirror or something or someone else, that's ... something he can decide on his own.]
no subject
An idiot who made all the wrong choices in life.
no subject
How does a hair color change from that orange to this white without hair dyes anyway? She stops there, touching the spiky ends of his hair that go towards the back of his neck. All things that look identical to Shirou, reasons why some mornings when she wakes up and sees his side profile she almost jumps up thinking Shirou arrived while she was sleeping .... only to wake up to the reality of that always being Archer instead and feeling like sleeping more. She'd love for all four of them and a few more to be here, not that she can do anything about that.
Surprisingly gentle sentimental moment is over and Rin looks away from him again after pulling her hand back to her side.]
... What the hell happened to you?
[She could possibly explain at least some of it herself, it's pretty simple math really but no, why not ask him when he is here.]
no subject
Too much magic caused my hair to lose it's color and skin to darken.
[Of course Rin asked about his appearance, right? Right? No? Okay okay, he'll answer for real before she gets
toopissed off at him.]I made a contract with the World and became a counter guardian. My duty being to slaughter all humans at a particular location when mankind is at the threshold of complete self destruction. That was who I became after my death. That was my role as a Heroic Spirit.
I was a fool.
no subject
Oh and also, Rin looks less and less impressed the more she hears. Shirou slaughtering mankind? That's a joke, right? When is the time to laugh? When is he going to say that this is just another trolling moment or that he is just kidding and --]
What? Did you think that if you make lots of people smile before you die, then you should be as happy as all of those people combined and then you could die with a smile on your face, satisfied of your achievements... But deciding that even that wasn't enough of helping them by giving up on your peaceful afterlife and becoming that instead because fools like you think they'd save millions more people like that?!? You'd take that as your reward for always helping people and didn't even think how all of that would betray you?!
[She feels like kicking him or kicking his ass so hard that he has and will never ever get it kicked by anyone else harder than that. Angry is a huge understatement of all the anger and frustration that she feels right now.]
no subject
As I said I was a fool. I see that now and I want to clear up my past mistake. To stop myself from becoming what I am now. Which is why I considered it lucky, to have been summoned to the era where Shirou Emiya existed.
no subject
Punching him right now? Very tempting but she seems to collect some of herself after that.]
Do you even have any --- [No, actually this isn't a question. Time to rephrase that!] Your way of clearing it up to stop the whole thing about him becoming what you are and this whole story are the stupidest things I've ever heard in my entire life!! [That's a pretty high rating from everything she's been through, seriously.]
There's no way I'll ever let you take Shirou away from away from me, stupid idiot, am I making myself clear? ...Or did that hair dye bleach everything from inside your head too?
no subject
[Unless it was ~magical~ bleach, then yes.]
As long as your Command Seal is in place there's no way for me to act on my desire to kill him, if he ever arrives here. So you don't need to worry about me, unless you plan on using the last one and freeing me.
[He doesn't comment on anything else.]
no subject
[So in other words she's keeping it in cases of she needs him to save her ass somewhere someday by calling him via that... Not that she isn't stubborn about that timing too, so he might be there even before she uses that.
But in other news, it's ... a way to keep at least someone with her instead of everyone going away from her, some kind of a connection and so on, who knows what would happen if she let it go. And yes, logically she realizes that one of them could still disappear from here and the other would be left here. Happens all the time, no?
She almost feels like hugging him.... Weird. Maybe too weird for them, hell if Rin knows.]
