[Rin is having a bit of an... issue today.
Since about, oh, three or four months ago he's been tying his hair back, as being in a place like Chroma Village (no relation to anything in Prismatica) didn't exactly allow for much hair maintenance outside of cold water washing and maybe taking a knife to it if one was really desperate. Kaoru had managed to get her hands on some better care products, but that still didn't mean he was going to get needed trips to the barber.
As such a hair tie and a messy low ponytail was about all he could do.
Until today.
When he woke up with big, fluffy, Maine Coon-like cat ears atop his head, making it much more difficult to even get a brush through his shaggy mess, let alone pull it back in a ponytail without causing himself pain.
As such when the video turns on he's got a mass of hair hanging in his face, covering his eyes, and very twitchy cat ears showing his annoyance.
In the background, someone is giggling.]
Can anyone tell me where to get this [an angry point at the Anime Extreme Bangs he's got going on] taken care of? Without gettin' my damn ears cut off?
But you look so cute!
Kohaku... I can't see...
[She doesn't say anything else, but there's another giggle as Rin sighs and ends the video.]

video;
[ and... a moment later... the video comes on! ...is he really far away from the camera, though?
in fact, he is not. he's just shrunk down to four inches tall. (he also has butterfly wings and antennae!) ]
I apologize. I am having a rather difficult time adjusting to my own transformation this cycle... Can you hear me?
[ ...and a correspondingly miniaturized voice... ]
no subject
Well that makes sense now.
Good thing Rin has really good hearing.]
Yeah. I can.
[He does have to lean in a little to see more clearly, though.]
Geez, you sure picked the short straw this month. You gettin' around okay like that?
no subject
But I think I am doing all right for the most part! Opening the door so I could actually leave my apartment was an ordeal. And my device is so heavy that I cannot really take it with me when I go out... Plus, flying actually gets rather tiring when you have to keep flapping your wings over and over. Honestly, I feel very lucky to be a magician. I have no idea how I would cope with this otherwise!
[ he's kind of just excited to talk to somebody ]
no subject
He motions a finger at his pointed ears.]
I got real good hearin'. Are you livin' alone right now? Sounds like you could use a hand right now.
no subject
For the past couple of months I had been living with a dear friend from my world, but he is no longer here...
I had hoped he would reappear along with everyone else who lost their bodies last month, but it seems he is really and truly gone.
no subject
Rin knows that feeling all too well. It hasn't happened here yet, but before...
Too many times.]
You uh... you wanna come stay with us? Doesn't gotta be permanent if you don't want it to. Just until your moon stuff wears off.
no subject
—Ah, but are you sure it is all right? It's true that I will not exactly take up much space, but I would not want to impose on your other housemates...
no subject
[Feel free to impose if it means you don't get mistaken for a fly!]
'sides, it's just Kohaku and I here.
no subject
...Then again, if I run low on chroma, I may not be able to use it...
Are you certain Kohaku will not mind? I am not sure we are acquainted.
no subject
[Some of his hair falls in his face again, earning a sigh.]
After I get this outta the way for the time bein'.
no subject
I'm sure that's very admirable of her, but I am not a charity case, you know? ...Please treat me as you would any other guest.
[ he presses a tiny knuckle to his also tiny lips as he contemplates rin's whole hair situation. ]
Perhaps hairpins or barrettes would help...
Or a very strong, continuous gust of wind.
no subject
[Obligation versus desire, really.]
I think I can pull it back if I'm really careful.
no subject
...Even so, it is really embarrassing!!
Rather than talking about how very pleased you are to be able to help someone out, couldn't you talk about how much fun it will be to spend time getting to know each other better? And instead of "It's not a problem since Kohaku would never turn away someone in need," perhaps you could say "It's not a problem because you and Kohaku will get along wonderfully without a doubt!"
Or something like that.
Those are only examples.
no subject
Rin shrugs.]
Maybe hos-- er. Hosp... [Hospitality, Rin.] maybe we just treat guests differently where I'm from? Yeah you two would probably get along but when you're tryin' to help someone and they thank you for it, we just say "It was no problem, I wanted to help".
no subject
why doesn't rin understand what the issue is? maybe titus isn't explaining himself right... ]
But it is the very fact that you view this merely as "trying to help someone" that I find unpleasant. It makes it seem like you just feel sorry for me, you know?
I thought staying with you would be fun and convenient, but... if you are only inviting me because you think I cannot take care of myself, I don't think I will be able to relax and enjoy myself very much at all.
