Who: Anyone
When: Day 115, Morning
Where: All over HQ
What: Mingle mingle

[ Being in the sky should mean a nice and bright full face of sunshine in the morning, right? ]

[ Well, maybe not this morning, seeing as there are bright purple glittery butterflies all over the windows, each one with a wingspan of a foot. Apparently the brief rainstorm sighted yesterday has blown them up from the forest below, and they seem intent on getting into HQ as quickly as possible, ducking away into dark places when they can get in through the breaches that still need patching on the lower levels. Those that're still outside start to smoke a little when the sun hits their wings. The smoke shifts and changes colors as it rises, going through the entire rainbow of colors before whisking away. ]

[ A familiar, tobacco-y smell to any habitual smokers... ]

[ But rainbow tobacco butterflies aside, it's quite a lovely day in the sky, Thusia. How you doin? ]

I'm fine. Sorry for staring, it's a little odd to see people chase after them . . . with such energy.

... I'm on vacation. Haha. -- That is, I'm no longer permitted to engage in my usual pastimes -- so, I've developed this excess of energy, I suppose.

But I'm certain that I must have looked rather silly... how embarrassing.

Who cares if it looked embarrassing? If you want one, you're going to look silly no matter what.

If you did smoke, Miss, would you have done the same?

I'd set a trap.

... Ah. How clever! I suppose that I'll keep that in mind.

I don't believe that I got your name, Miss...?

It only makes sense.

Tohsaka Rin.

[oh gosh]

-- Oh, my. His opinion is pleasantly unbiased.

[holding her hand out for shaking!]

Akimoto Michi; it's wonderful to finally meet you.

[ . . . shakes her hand ]

It's nice to meet you as well, Akimoto [ . . . . . ] - san. What do you mean by 'finally'>?

Your father is a friend of mine. He talks about you fairly often, but I hadn't had the good fortune to meet you until today.

-- a friend?

... Yes? Is that strange?

[He's not that awkward right...........]

[ . . .

EYES HER. ]

You're the first one, as far as I know . . .

... Oh my.

[A beat.]

That is certainly... interesting, yes.

How did it happen?

Ah... I don't recall exactly how he and I met, I'm afraid. We spoke several times and his company wasn't unpleasant -- so, I came to consider him my friend.

Good enough, I guess!

[well ok]

He worries about you quite a bit.

He should really stop.

Why do you say that?

He should worry about himself! A grown man with only one friend? Isn't that a little shameful!

Only if he's interested in making friends.

Do you have many friends, Rin-chan?

[ a beat ]

Of course. I'm pretty successful in all areas of my life, you know?

[...]

He did make it seem that way, yes. But, that doesn't mean that you aren't his child, hm? Even if he were as popular as you, Rin-chan, he would continue to worry, wouldn't he?

Why? Isn't a child successful so their parent doesn't worry?
