[It's the only way he can think of that they would have ended up at the place she calls 'home', run down as it is. All the more reason for him to leave as soon as he can manage to sit up without his head spinning quite so much.]
[Considering the current situation and Felix's track record with her, maybe he won't point out that the fact that her grandfather is siding with the killers might indicate he has indeed been wicked and taken to hell.]
[He wonders if the Oni sees what she does, or if he simply doesn't care. But before Felix can try to come up with a way to ask, he's surprised by her question and takes a moment to read it a few times.]
Felix Richter. Sorry, I didn't offer it before because I wasn't sure you'd want to know. Do you have a name?
spoilers she's about to find out in the above thread ✨
[ felix richter. she tries saying his name first as practice, thus the slightest delay in her text. ]
Rin Yamaoka.
I am... curious. I want to know the name of the man who stepped into my home without permission.
[ names — rin only knows a handful of names from the survivors, with "Adam Francis" being the most well knows for how he dares enter her home the first time around. ]
Thievery I punish. Foolishness depends on the act itself and how many times committed.
And as I said, my ancestor's presence. The only thing I require from you is that you don't go upstairs. Ever.
[ she sets the futon and the drunken german on the first floor of her home the first time she notices, while the stairs leading up to the second floor blocked with furniture and wooden debris this time. ]
I wasn't planning on overstaying my welcome or looking around a generous host's home without permission.
[That's just basic decency. The water has helped a great deal and while Felix can see the stairs leading upwards, he's not about to try climbing up them, debris or no debris.]
[It's not specific, as Felix doesn't know if she's really familiar with the area and it's easier than trying to explain towns and regions of an unfamiliar country.]
But my parents would travel often when I was growing up. I saw much of the world because of them.
[ germany. traveling is such a luxury during her time alive — and still a dream that she wakes up from time to time. her entire being is built on rage and hope, after all.
felix is a lucky man, rin believes. almost jealous in fact. ]
[ this is the man that says she's similar to her father for killing people in the way of him. a fool like kate denson, but not a fool enough for rin to behead immediately.
the estate is a safe haven for her and her grandfather — a place of peace that lets rin remember what it's like to be normal again. or at least as normal as things can be. having people to talk to...
there's no reply that rin sends. instead, after five minutes of silence, rin appears right in front of felix in a seiza position with her hands resting together. ]
For a moment Felix wonders if he's overstepped a boundary, but then there's the familiar sound of Rin moving however she does when she's not visible, a sounds that instinctively makes him want to run for the nearest safe place. But he resists the urge and instead of appearing, blade in hand and a nightmarish scream twisting her face, Rin appears seated.]
Hello, Rin. You look... [Calm, less like she was about to murder him] ...nice.

As for how I knew, when he arrived at home, we spoke to each other.

Why is he called that? What does it mean?
no subject
As for what it means, Oni's are monsters that live in mountains — it's said that they are formed after wicked men are brought to hell.

Is he also hunting your father?

Speaking of ones name, what is yours?

have fun with that, rin!
And I do appreciate that you haven't thrown me out or killed me, Rin.
yes she will!!

It's a wonderful chance that they gave you.

I would like to know... what is Germany like?

[He ponders the request, not because he won't fulfil it but because of another matter.]
Will you join me in person? It would be easier to speak face to face.

Hello, Felix.

Sorry not sorry for the harsh truths, Rin.For a moment Felix wonders if he's overstepped a boundary, but then there's the familiar sound of Rin moving however she does when she's not visible, a sounds that instinctively makes him want to run for the nearest safe place.

Thank you. [ she's still one with manners, especially when in a not-so-murderous mood. ] And you're feeling better?
no subject
I am. Thank you for your hospitality. You wanted to know what my homeland was like?
no subject
[ after all, her grandfather comes from the beginning of the warring states era. she comes from 2020. where does felix come from, she wonders. ]
