01 💢 Video

[angramaintsu]

[ Rare is it for Rin to use the terminals, but when she does her skill with it is anything but decent. Her typing is usually off, so when she uses video early this morning, it's only natural that it catches a a brief glimpse of her. Most of her head is clipped off by the edges of the camera, but she doesn't bother to move into position properly. Behind her mostly is an empty hallway, void of any life (human and monster) surprisingly. ]

Some of you have items that were damaged. [ A simple phrase, but she comes off as awkward in saying it. ] From the weather.

I'll try to help you with them. [ A pause, then: ] With restoration, that is. I might be able to assist, but don't get your hopes up. I'll decide when we meet face-to-face if it's something I want to do or not.

It'll cost you more than likely. [ It wont, but if she comes off too charitable in public, who knows what people might ask of her next. ] We can discuss that in person. It'd be scandalous to invite you to my room to personally discuss it, so think of another place we can meet up.

Okay?

Mine's a little more complicated than a ribbon. But why do you want to know about it?

[angramaintsu]

Because if you're going to brag about it, you may as well put your money where your mouth is.

Or into my hands.

[fionnuisce]

Now, just what kind of magus would I be if I laid all my cards on the table from the start?

[angramaintsu]

What kind of stupid magus is afraid to brag about their power?

[fionnuisce]

On the contrary, a very clever one. Reveal too much about yourself and people will take advantage of that. 'Knowledge is power', as they say.

[angramaintsu]

Only a cowardly magus would refuse to answer when given a chance to boast about their power. You can brag and still keep your secrets.

[fionnuisce]

Why should I go parading around my talents like a loudmouthed idiot? If the opportunity arises I'd sooner demonstrate what I can do firsthand than start running my mouth about it.

[angramaintsu]

Fine, then let's have a duel.

[ Waving a hand. ] A fun-filled friendly magus duel.

[ Remember the Fourth Holy Grail War, Waver? Remember how much FUN that was? ]

[fionnuisce]

Absolutely not.

[Yeah. 'Fun'. Oodles of sunshine and rainbows.]

[angramaintsu]

Aww, is someone scared of a little girly magus?

[fionnuisce]

'Duels between magi' and 'fun' are about as far removed from each other as 'Rin' and 'tolerable'. I have no interest in such a thing.

[angramaintsu]

About as far as Waver Velvet and a bookshelf, huh? I see, yes I certainly see things now.

It was unfair of me to try to trick lesser magi into a duel.

[fionnuisce]

You're trying to provoke me. I'm afraid it's not going to work. I don't spend my days starting fights with everyone that annoys me; if I did I'd never have time for anything else.

[angramaintsu]

What else is there to do in this rotten tower besides pick fights?
