Perhaps it's just that you're so charming?

[flamingprick]

[I mean this is the same guy who makes dick and fart jokes, so.]

Well I guess a few people DID kiss me, so I've got some charm.

[counterfaith]

My my, how scandalous. Do you have someone you're courting now, then?

[flamingprick]

[COURTING...]

Not really.

[Translation: 'I'm trying but I'm bad at it.']

[counterfaith]

[ oh dear ]

Ah, but are there any candidates you have in mind?

[flamingprick]

No!

[Yes!]

It's- we're not going to be here long anyway, why should I get my hopes up?

[counterfaith]

. . . However, it is not impossible that you will meet that person again. After all, you had returned here, too.

[flamingprick]

Well yeah, but...

[He has been thinking about asking Allen to leave his world to go somewhere else, if only so he can have a better life, but he's not sure how well Allen will take that.]

...nah.

[counterfaith]

. . . Why?

[flamingprick]

Don't wanna introduce anyone to the in-laws. Or in-law, I guess.

[Since his bio-dad killed BOTH HIS MOM AND HIS ADOPTIVE DAD THANKS SATAN]

[counterfaith]

. . . My, you're a surprisingly traditional boy, aren't you. . . ?

[flamingprick]

Not really. I don't WANT to introduce anyone to my family. Well, except Yukio, they can meet him. But nobody else.

[counterfaith]

I don't see how courting someone must necessarily include introducing that person to the rest of your family, aside from your brother. . . ? Other than due to tradition, of course.

[flamingprick]

[Look Satan is an absolute asshole and would harass anyone Rin ever tried to date.]

It's...complicated. Let's just say my dad is a dic- I mean let's say he's a really bad guy.

[counterfaith]

Yet, is he here to stop you?

[flamingprick]

Knowing him, I wouldn't be surprised if he kicked down the door just to harass me.

[counterfaith]

So, you will remain in your father's shadow, then?

[flamingprick]

Until I kick his ass at least.

['honor thy mother and father' is not something Rin follows whoops.]

[counterfaith]

[ . . . with a little laugh ]

I see. Then, it isn't a matter of "not being able to have any romance at all", but "having to put it on hold, or in secret, for now" . . .

[flamingprick]

Exactly! And I can't ask someone to wait for me, right? Because there's no telling how long they'll be waiting!

[counterfaith]

Mm? I don't see why you can't. If your mutual love prevails, that person will wait for you as long as it takes.

[flamingprick]

I don't want someone to wait for me, though. Everyone's got their own life to live, and nobody gets enough time already. I don't want to take years and years of someone's time like that.

[counterfaith]

. . . For myself, in such a situation, I wouldn't mind if I must wait for an eternity. But even so, I can, and do still live my own life.

But, I suppose it's a matter of perspective.

[flamingprick]

[Rin lets out a short laugh, but there is a lot of sadness behind it.]

Who has an eternity to wait?

[counterfaith]

. . . That's right, who does?

[ :) ]

Ah, but it does not mean they cannot wait for a few decades, at least.
