[Semi Open] A little welcome surprise

[bluespearmanofthewind]

Who: Lancer, Rin, Archer, and anyone close to Rin!
When: 01/30
Where: CERES' Garden
What: Welcoming the "too brave and annoying" Rin back to this world.
Rating/Warning: None!

[It has been a few days since Rin arrived to the city. Lancer has made a little promise to keep so he's already preparing for her arrival.

His way of welcoming are... a bit odd. Lancer flies through Rin's apartment and without reserve he goes inside and maybe catch Rin by surprise.]

Yo Little Lady Jr! I'm borrowing your for a while!

[With that, he lifts Rin up, who he knows very well might not remember him, and puts a blindfold on her eyes. He then gets out from her apartment and flies around the city. Much like an abduction.]

I'm going to take you for a walk a little!

[He soon arrives at the designated place where he gathers people who are close to Rin with the help of Archer, puts Rin down and takes her to the waterfall.]

Are you ready? I'm taking it off!

[With that, Lancer puts away the blindfold and a big confetti follows him up with a big "Welcome Back!" banner being spread through by Lancer and Archer. Kinda unexpected for them to work together. There's a little food to enjoy nearby because Lancer has been fishing for a while. Anybody close to Rin can enjoy the mingle here to refresh some of her memories!]

[Don't get any dumb ideas, Rin.]

My stupid look is telling you that your stupid look is wrong.

[codere]

I don't have a stupid look at all!

[ Hiding her face behind her hands and turning around to show him her back. Jerk!

One thing's for sure: she's a lot easier to embarrass since she's come back. ]

[swordboning]

It'd be a smart look if you were somewhere close to actually being correct. Since you weren't...

[He walks over, mostly to put his hands on her shoulders.]

...I'll accept it as is.

[codere]

You're so mean to me, Archer.

[ Kicking at the ground. ]

[swordboning]

How would you like me to be nicer?

[codere]

I don't know.

[ Always with the frustrating questions. How is she supposed to answer that when she's just getting used to being around him once more? ]

... You could hold my hand while we're sitting.

[swordboning]

I could, yes. But that does remind me...

...I'll be back in a couple minutes.

[Yes, turning to walk off.]

[codere]

Oh... all right.

[ Surprisingly just going to stand there and let him go. ]

[swordboning]

[He's back minutes later, with a dozens roses in hand. And a smile for Rin.]

Here, this is for you from me.

[codere]

[ He ditched her at a party to go buy her flowers..? More importantly, why is he smiling at her? What did he do? ]

Did you kill Emiya on the way or something?

[swordboning]

No, I had set these to the side and I remembered to go get them for you.

In case you didn't know, a dozen roses is a symbol of love. Since I'm giving them to you, you can take a hint at the meaning or yell at me to say it.

[codere]

... so even though I don't remember things from back home accurately, you're saying that it's okay?

[ she speaks as if they have a past "back home" !!! What a huge NERD. ]

[swordboning]

There's nothing to remember 'back home'. What we have here is all we have so it's perfectly fine for me to show you my feelings like this.

[At least he attributed those feelings to himself.]

[codere]

[ Just snatching her roses and bringing them to her face to smell them. At least they're not trying to kill her which is a plus considering most of the plant life here. ]

So what?

Do you want me to say something to you because of this gesture?

[swordboning]

You don't have to but some type of reciprocation would be appreciated.

[codere]

[ Since he asked for it. ]

[swordboning]

[Just this face.

Completely.]

[codere]

[ . . . ] What's with that look, Archer?

You asked for it so you're not allowed to be angry with me!

[swordboning]

...can I just assume that's just a gesture of you claiming me?

[codere]

I did it because I really like you, stupid.

[ Hugging her poor bouquet nice and snug. ] You know better than to do these things where people can see!

[swordboning]

So you know, kissing is fine. It's everything after that that isn't okay in public.

[codere]

What comes after kissing?

[ Hand holding? Exchanhing ILU's via text message? ]

[swordboning]

Not anything I'd like to explain in public. But part of me thinks you have the entire thing backwards.

[codere]

Then explain it to me, Archer.

Set me straight.

[swordboning]

Just take what you think about things and flip it around. You'll get a more accurate idea.
