Just a rainy day...

[oi_theoi]

Who: Anyone
When: Day 59, Noon
Where: Anywhere
What: A soggy mingle.

[ The mist around headquarters is mostly cleared along with the morning air, but people may have noticed that it hung around much later into the morning than usual. The rain that started in last night has also been continuing, strong enough to be heard anywhere inside the stone headquarters and much heavier than one would expect for a sudden tropical rain. It also looks as if it'll be lasting the rest of the day and then some. Hope you've got plenty of indoor activities planned for the day. Or don't mind getting a little wet if you don't. ]

[ So what are your plans, Thusia? ]

... Blades... shoved through my hands.

[impenetrable]

[ very clearly tempted to interject, but he's holding his tongue so far. ]

[freelancetogoodhome]

... A person. I was less cautious in my dealings with them than I should have been.

[reversedemperor]

Did you do something to incite this person?

[freelancetogoodhome]

I.... I don't know...

[impenetrable]

Who was it?

[freelancetogoodhome]

[closes his eyes for a moment]

Kotomine Kirei.

[reversedemperor]

... What's he look like?

[freelancetogoodhome]

...

Tall, brown hair and eyes. He wears a cross around his neck and rarely smiles... or shows much expression at all.

[reversedemperor]

[ HMM. ]

[beautymark]

Kotomine Kirei isn't someone who needs to be provoked, from what I know of him. I've already suggested staying away from him in the future.

[reversedemperor]

Why was there an association with him in the first place?

[freelancetogoodhome]

[...]

He is no one I was ever familiar with in the wars. I knew him only as Assassin's master, and I had met another version of him previously. When this one arrived... I offered my assistance based on that former association and his... familiarity with me from his wars.

... It... took me a couple of weeks to learn that in his world, he had been m-- [closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, exhaling slowly] that he had been the master of another Diarmuid... a Lancer summoned not to the fourth, but to the fifth war.

[reversedemperor]

You were curious about him because of that?

[freelancetogoodhome]

Yes... and I wished to help him if I was able to.

[reversedemperor]

... You were too kind.

[freelancetogoodhome]

[nods slightly]

[reversedemperor]

You need to take care of yourself too, you know.
