Is it weird...? To lose a part of you you didn't even like... and miss it? It's totally weird isn't it. I don't really get it myself.

I-

[His face scrunches up as he tries to explain it without giving it away. To those who know him, though, his ears are distinctly less pointed. Normal.]But I guess it is what it is

[Have yourself an older TYL-Shiemi! She looks quite like she did when she was younger, except now she's taller, her hair's a bit longer, and she seems to be wearing a Middle First Class Exorcist uniform. She seems to be a little lost too, the City looking familiar to her but she can't seem to put her finger on it yet.

She had just turned on her communicator to tune in to the network and get some clue as to where she is, when she sees a boy who looks oddly familiar -- wait, is that Rin?! ...No, it can't be, right? There's something a little different about this one... like the fact that he's younger... and looks, well, normal. Ah, maybe it's someone who just looks -- and sounds -- a lot like him.

So she just smiles at this boy instead.]

I don't think it's that weird at all.

Thanks I-- eh? You're an Exorcist! I recognize that uniform!

[And he squints at the video. She actually looks a lot like Shiemi. But hahaha that's impossible...right?]

[She giggles a little when he mentions her being an Exorcist. It seems someone still hasn't gotten over the excitement of finally being one... even when it's been years since she graduated.]

I am! [She fishes for her ID in her pocket and shows it to him.] I work for the True Cross Order. How do you know about Exorcists?

Sh-Sh-Shiemi?!

[GOD SHE LOOKS HOT I MEAN NO I MEAN YES I MEAN--]

It's me! Rin! Don't tell me you- you didn't forget about me did you?!

Rin...?!

[And then her eyes suddenly go wide in recognition.]

B-but you look so young! And you were just... I thought you were at... huh?

[And she still has that same dazed and confused look she had when she was younger. Everything about this seems so familiar, almost like a deja vu... but she can't fully remember yet uuuugh.]

[Oh god he looks too young. THAT'S A BAD THING ISN'T IT?]

When did you look like that?! I've always looked like this!

[At least she doesn't look completely different. He's comfortable with thinking of her as Shiemi rather than just...Random Hot Girl Who Claims To Be Shiemi. Even though she has a cool badge.]

...You became Middle First Class, huh. Congratulations.

[lovesweeds]

What do you mean? I've always looked like this too...

[At this point, she realized that she was most probably talking to a younger version of Rin... however impossible it may be. A hint of red appears on her cheeks when Rin congratulates her, and she smiles to herself.]

Thank you. Most of us are actually.

Ehhh-- it must be a curse. Maybe it really tells the future!

[He doesn't have a tail to wag, but his smile is as bright as always.]

Am I--? Tell me I'm Paladin!

[lovesweeds]

A curse? ...Huh.

[Well, that would probably make sense. She really isn't sure she should give out much information about what's happening in her time however. At Rin's question though, a small smile appears on her face.]

Almost there. You and Suguro-kun are definitely higher than the rest of us though. [And she looks a bit proud at that, because she always believed in Rin, even when he had to face a lot of difficult things to get to where he was now. Never mind the fact that it also meant they didn't see each other now quite as often as they used to.]

[disinheriting]

Yeah?

[He smiles fondly. Suguro doesn't... like him much from what he remembers. But maybe they get along again in the future?]

You think they'd let us both be Paladin?

[lovesweeds]

[She lets out a little chuckle.]

I'm... not so sure about that. Suguro-kun's also a little busy with taking over his father's temple, so... [She shrugs, smiling fondly as she thinks about everyone and what they've accomplished so far, even the little things.]

Ah, but Rin-- just keep trying your best, alright?

[disinheriting]

I will- I won't ever stop! I'll try my hardest so that we can all be Upper First Class Exorcists together, and I'll be Paladin and maybe Suguro, too, if he's good enough.

And it'll all be okay!
