[ Rin Okumura. He has to double take when he reads that name. Okumura isn't a common name and what are the chances that his twin would be here? So much for his skepticism. And it certainly does sound like his brother: already ready to offer food when the chance arose.

...he seemed so comfy though... like he'd already settled himself in. But that was something he could probably figure out later... if this even was his Rin to begin with. On the one hand, if it really was, at least he can keep an eye on his twin. Who knows what this place is like? That's one less thing to worry about, at least.

Bluo.

That's exactly where he is, too. Perfect. He could just casually walk around and look for a place with an open kitchen window... which is exactly what he does once he steps outside. An open kitchen window... that should be easy enough to find.

Open window.

Open.

...aha.

He stops in front of it, pushing his glasses up as he calls out. ]

...Rin Okumura?

[satanslash]

That's m-AUWAH!

[He had his back turned, completing some of the food he had been preparing. Mid greeting though he turned, only to basically startle himself right on to his ass, falling down in a flurry of tail, limbs and food.]

Y-YUKIO?! You're one'a the newbies?!

[in_praetego]

[ So it IS him. He'd know that fumble anywhere. There's a shake of his head though and he feels a little more comforted than he thought he would be knowing his brother was here. ]

I had a feeling it was you... who else would be offering food to complete strange--

[ ...then he spots the tail and his blood runs cold. Oh no. Please say it isn't so. That shouldn't be there. That shouldn't most definitely be there. Dad was always so good at keeping the sword hidden. ]

...Niisan. That...

[satanslash]

[Here and on the floor, yes.

Yukio isn't the only one staring slack-jawed, though likely for an entirely different reason. His last memory of Yukio was not a pleasant one, full of heartache and painful uncertainty, and seeing him here after so many months...

Yet Yukio is staring at something else. Namely that tail that is thudding slightly on the wooden floor.

Something in his brother's voice actually caught his attention enough to drag him away from his thoughts and look down to where Yukio's gaze had landed.

Wait, how does he not know about that?]

... yeah?

[You'd better not be fucking with him after all that shit on the bridge, bro.]

[in_praetego]

[ Clearly, this place is what's fucking with Rin today. His brother's here, sure... but he knows nothing. Nothing of the bridge, nothing of Fujimoto's death, nothing of Rin drawing the sword and all the shit that hits the fan between them afterward.

...he should get in and help him up. They're... still twins, after all. Besides, he's trying to find the words. His tongue isn't working right at the moment.

But he finally finds the right question that doesn't start with "What the hell" and "How the fuck". ]

How long have you known?

[satanslash]

["What the fuck" might have been acceptable in this situation.

"How long have you known" is a lot more poignant, though.

Rin is dumb. We all know this. But he's not entirely incapable of reading the room these days. He has no idea why Yukio doesn't know that the tail has been there for almost a year now, but he doesn't...]

A... while.

[His voice cracks slightly, unable to hide the confusing, painful mix of emotions making his chest ache. What was evening happening?]

[bloodcravings]

[He has no use for human food but...]

Does the same apply to liquid that doesn't have color?

[satanslash]

unfortunately yeah
it wasnt as bad with water because that doesn't have much flavor anyway but it was still off before we got water with color back

[bloodcravings]

Off how exactly? Did it still provide people with what they needed to not end up weak from dehydration?

[satanslash]

yeah it did but
idk
its hard to explain

like it helped the way water is supposed to help but it still tasted... dry? that probably doesn't make any sense

[bloodcravings]

It makes sense to me.

How long did it take for the water to regain color?

[satanslash]

oh ok good
it was just so weird

uh gosh that was like early last month? around the same time we got color to our forum posts

[buncho]

are you a restaurant owner? i want food! what can i buy with 200 yen?

[satanslash]

me?
nah
thatd be cool though
you dont have to pay if you want food!

[buncho]

its free? its really all free? i can come by and eat as much as i want as often as i want and its all free?

[satanslash]

( color )

If you're that worried a8out people finding their way to you, why don't you do something intelligent like make a sign?

[satanslash]

unless youre suggesting i make a sign out of FOOD ive got fuck all to make one with

[hypertoxic]

We live in a dilapid8ed ass town next to a forest. I mean, seriously? It's not like you're literally surrounded 8y potential supplies or anything!

[satanslash]

[Don't shame him! It's not his fault he's dumb!]

i dont have anything to write on it with...

[hypertoxic]

[ instinct tells her to make a biting comment and, with a sigh, she holds it back. ]

How a8out this. I will make you a sign since you are clearly incapa8le of it.

[ that is, in fact, less biting than the first thing she thought of. ]

food with color tastes great and the things that don't are no good/
got it11

that's real nice of you to offer to cook for everyone. are you a chef or just a real nice guy/

( what's a shift key )

[satanslash]

[Who knows. It's a wonder Rin is capable of making his messages readable.]

i just like cooking for others

[Rin wouldn't call himself a nice guy, but he is. He just doesn't believe that about himself.]
