[ Having full knowledge of what went down between him and Sango, Rin had to see for himself just the damage he'd done. The guilt and regret twisting inside his heart was horrible, and a larger part of him wanted to stay in his room and hide away from this whole problem. He knew better than that though, years of having his father drag him to the hospital to apologize to the kids he'd hurt had instilled a small habit in him.

This was why he was at the clinic now, wandering down the halls to where he'd learned her room was. He'd stop short in her doorway, not wanting to step in. He'd stare at her for a good minute in silence, at first being locked in horror at the sight of her. His expression twisted to anger, frustration, depression, and eventually he couldn't look at her anymore and instead just stared at the ground. His fists clenched tightly at his sides, the same fists he'd used to hurt her. ]

I... I did that... god Sango ... fuck... sorry doesn't even cover it.

[ His voice is breaking, fused thickly with the frustration he had at himself. ]

[She meets his gaze evenly as he stands in the doorway, wishing she could look serious or somber instead of just--happy. It's ridiculous to look happy at this point and she knows it but she can't physically help it.]

Yes it does. You're forgetting that I went after you. I knew this would happen. [As much as a shrug as one can give when their arm is broken.] Besides--I've had worse, you know.

That doesn't make it okay!!

[ His voice breaks as he shouts this back to her. Not moving an inch from his spot. ]

[Ohgod her heart is breaking for him but she can't show it at all. This is not what Sango meant when she wished a million times for better control of her emotions. Not at all.]

Then what are you going to do about it, Rin? You apologized, I forgave you, though there's really nothing to forgive in the first place. There's nothing left to do except let it go.

[And that ridiculous out-of-place smile and tone the whole time.]

[ While her reasoning was sound, it was her expression, tone, and state of health that rattled him. He stared back with horror, having to force himself to speak again. ]

I don't know! [ His father would have yelled at him and made him atone for his actions one way or another. ]

If there was a card for "Sorry I beat the shit out of you" I'd have already gotten it and signed it, but that ain't how it works. You're hurt... and it's my fault.

There's gotta be something I should do to help or make up for it...

[ Offline ] coraltaijiya August 24 2011, 22:50:03 UTC

[She's contemplative for a moment. Still with that stupid smile, though.]

You can, first and foremost by forgiving yourself. But if you wanted to do something more substantial--well, I can't promise you'd like what I have in mind.

[ Offline ] callinblueskies August 25 2011, 00:50:41 UTC

[ He is feeling worse and worse as this conversation continues. He could forgive himself later. ]

Just tell me already.

[ Offline ] coraltaijiya August 25 2011, 01:14:57 UTC

When I get better, spar with me.

[No, Rin, you are not hearing things. Sango actually did just ask the guy who tore her to pieces to beat her up more.]

[ Offline ] callinblueskies August 26 2011, 04:18:11 UTC

No.

[ The answer out of him is so lightning fast you'd wonder how he didn't get whiplash from it. ]

[ Offline ] coraltaijiya August 26 2011, 22:26:03 UTC

Why not?

[She may look genuinely surprised, Rin, but she's really not. Sigh. I told you you wouldn't like it...]

Re: [ Offline ] callinblueskies August 27 2011, 09:00:30 UTC

I just put you here, and now you're asking me to do it again?! Hell no!

[ That's an understatement ]

[ Offline ] coraltaijiya August 27 2011, 19:32:12 UTC

Not like that. [Have a laugh though it's really inappropriate at the moment.] Listen, Rin, you know how I spar with Snape-san every so often? Did I ever tell you why?

[ Offline ] callinblueskies August 28 2011, 18:29:15 UTC

No.

[ Because frankly he didn't care, and even if Sango had told him in passing of the Animus's control over her emotions he still couldn't help being slightly miffed. ]

[Guess who gives no fucks and is continuing anyway?]

I'm sure you remember the week where everyone had different pasts. That was the week I arrived, actually, and I managed to make an enemy of some of the altered wizards. I'm sure you can guess what happened next. [Ha so much de ja vu.]

But afterwards, I asked Snape to start sparring with me so that I could get stronger, to prevent the same thing from occurring again. You don't want that to happen again, do you?

[ Offline ] callinblueskies August 31 2011, 06:31:07 UTC

... [ The week where he and Yukio had switched their lives completely. Man this was just not his weekend. ]

I can barely control my strength when I'm just normal, how am I supposed to help you learn to protect yourself against me when I can't even gauge that!?

[ Offline ] coraltaijiya August 31 2011, 23:55:51 UTC

So we can both learn something. You want to learn to control that, don't you?

[...probably not the smartest idea, Sango.]
