Trash Squad Day 11 - SECRETS

[chinhotta]

Are you ready for it?! It's the long awaited final event! This is your last chance to get close before your final dates and the final bonus event!

And, back by popular demand, it's the motive vi—wait, no, not that. Well, I guess you're motivated to build your relationships? That's better anyway.

...Anyway! Check your tablets! You will find you have a few interesting video files! They should be familiar to you! The catch is... if you don't share each one with a different person by nighttime today, they will all be shown to everyone here! We'll have a fun midnight viewing party!

This may seem a bit cruel, but... love is cruel sometimes. Take it as an opportunity to get a bit closer to the people you care about, or everyone will learn a bit more about you! It's win-win when you think about it that way!

[ On your tablets are a minimum of 3 video files! There is no maximum; it's however many you OOCly want to deal with. Each video contains some sort of secret your character has—'secret' loosely defined as anything they would be uncomfortable being thrown up on a big screen in the auditorium in front of everyone. The presentation can be as simple as lines of text with embarrassing facts (Alice wet the bed until she was in junior high!) or as involved as a dramatically edited montage of the murders they committed through their whole life. Your choice!

Each file should be shown to a different person to count as 'shared'. If there is anything they do not manage to, or choose not to, share with someone in particular, comment with a brief description of it over here. These will all be shared publicly in a post which goes up on Thursday before the date announcement post. ]

[flamingprick]

Yeah, I was raised human, so I had no idea.

[Are bastard children of kings even princes?]

Haha, that means you kissed a prince~

[lefthandpath]

Yes, and a princess. I realize that, thanks.

[flamingprick]

[Rin's tail is flicking around behind him now, like it usually does when he's come up with something sneaky.]

You bit me too. So bold, to bite a prince like that.

[lefthandpath]

Please. Isn't it more insulting that you were bitten by circus trash? You don't know where I've been. I might even have fleas.

[Rin at least play the role of a noble, is the exasperated tone he takes]

[flamingprick]

If I was worried about that then I wouldn't have let you kiss me in the first place.

[Nope never, he's forever a rebellious delinquent.

And since Allen is being a little shit, Rin is going to move and try to pin him.]

[lefthandpath]

[OH SO THE TAIL THING IS DEFINITELY LIKE FELINE WIGGLE BEFORE POUNCE. NOTED.

noted too late to do much else aside from squawk awkwardly as he flails to keep from damaging the tablets]

Rin--!

[flamingprick]

[YEP he's just like a cat. And he certainly looks like a cat who got the cream right about now.]

I like you, Allen Walker. It doesn't matter where you've been or what you've done, I'll still like you. Fleas or no.

[lefthandpath]

[oh my god you are so embarrassing?!?!

congrats, Allen is reduced to flushed face and embarrassed strangled noises.]

You haven't even seen all of the secrets!

[flamingprick]

I don't need to. I mean, I'll still watch them, but they're not gonna change my opinion of you. You're stuck with me now.

[lefthandpath]

... idiot.

You should know what you're getting into first.

[flamingprick]

I know I'm getting into a huge dork who needs to remember to smile every now and then. Luckily I'm pretty good at getting people to smile.

[But it's time for more videos clearly. So Rin will try to roll them over so he is on his back and Allen is laying on his chest.]

Pick a video, then.

[lefthandpath]

[ah.

he's laying across Rin's chest and a bit deer in headlights again because.

well.

... p-picking is hard.]

If you want something more recent... then, the last two.

[flamingprick]

[Let's go with the redheaded man in the room with the other guys, then.]

[lefthandpath]

[so basically, it starts with Allen Walker being bound in magic seals and lead into a room.

Time for some backstory and exposition.

Unfortunately, Allen has no clue wtf they're even talking about...

It's enough to have him go into a state of shock. It's fine, Cross is a helper.

Except for the fact that he's super unhelpful.

More exposition happens and you can actually see the impression of the presence Allen feels within him.

And then, it gets really fucking sad BAW.

Before Cross drops a big bomb.

And then has to leave.

He gives some questionable advice? But mostly Allen's pretty pissed off.

"STUPID MASTER!"

Those turn out to literally be his last words to his master.

The video skips forward to some time later (first panel only).

the video actually goes blank, but then there's. audio. playing.

it's Cross's voice.

aaaand... there's nothing else. that's all there is.]

[flamingprick]

[That...

Rin's mind is turning. He has all sorts of information in his head thanks to his 'Ultimate Exorcist' title, and he's trying to make all of this information make sense to him. What's going on with Allen sounds like prolonged demon possession, but maybe it's different? But maybe...

It's a thought to hang onto, for when he makes to to Allen's world. Maybe by then he'll have enough practice as an exorcist to do something about this '14th'. Or hell, maybe his 'satan's son' thing will outrank whatever power is going on in Allen's world, and a bit of Satan's flame will solve the problem. Whatever it takes, Rin is going to try.

But for now, he holds onto Allen, trying to make sure Allen knows he's not alone. Because wow that was a thing.]

I'm sorry for what happened to him.

[Because it's pretty obvious what happened there.]

[lefthandpath]

[IS IT, THO?

Allen kind of just. lays against Rin. he didn't really bother to watch it along with him, but he heard it all again and just kind of decided press his face against Rin's collar. telling himself that hearing it again doesn't hurt.]

... I saw how it happened. Later. From the eyes of the killer.

[that? that's what hurts.]

[flamingprick]

Is that what the other video is?

[Because that would make sense here. Well, as much as Allen's world makes sense. Which is still not all that much because what the fuck Allen your world sucks so much.

The urge to drag Allen away to his world is even stronger now.

Also Rin's hand is threading through Allen's hair, gently moving in a not-quite-petting motion. It's supposed to be soothing, shhh.]

[lefthandpath]

[it's. something. that calms.]

... it has his killer in it.

His killer just happens to be one of my pursuers--... well, it probably. Shows why.

[flamingprick]

'Probably'? You mean you haven't watched it yet to know for sure?

[lefthandpath]

[... why on earth would he want to watch that garbage?]

[flamingprick]

[OKAY POINT.]

Before we watch that, look at this one.

[He's going to show this memory, because he wants Allen to see the bit where Shiro tells him to struggle and become a cool guy. Because the sentiment is kind of the same as when Mana told Allen to keep walking, and it's another similarity between them!

Also enjoy seeing how absolutely violent Rin can be at times. Because really. He's violent. Dating game has just never set off that side of him too much.]

[lefthandpath]

[i mean...

son of Satan.

makes sense?

but also. Allen's temper. is. lolol.]

... you've gotten a lot better with your temper.

[that's what he was supposed to get out of it, right?]

[flamingprick]

[Partially! But it was also the pep talk from his dad at the beginning too.]

It's been easier here, without people dying and all.

[That temper will probably be worse when he goes back home and has to fight his brother.]

But that man, your master, he had good advice. Dad told me something kinda like what your master told you, so if we're both getting the same advice then it's got to be good advice, right?

[lefthandpath]

Well... [frrrrooooowns] Master actually didn't like my polite attitude as much as my more... violent. Reactions.

[so it's a bit different? weirdly "no one will want to be your friend if you're like this" doesn't hold much water when strangely people like you in spite of bad tempers.]

[flamingprick]

When you were fighting? Or all the time?

[Because the former he can understand at least, Allen lives in a dangerous world.]

Or is it that the 14th is polite and he wanted you to be as different from him as you could be? Because I think that's why Dad always wanted me to be kind: so I wasn't like a demon.
