1x1 with MyNameIsTurtle and Metallic Medley

[Balsam]

Ring giggled.
---
"... So sorry, sir. It was a dumb question, sir." Rin apologized.

[warlord.]

Lui pouted. "It's true."
---
"It was. No more dumb questions. Think rationally before you ask me anything else. Understood?"

[Balsam]

"Of course it is. I know that."
---
"I-I-I understand..." Rin was trying to hide how her voice was breaking up. "I'll t-think before I ask anything... I promise, s-sir.... Never again will I ask you a d-dumb question."

[warlord.]

"Do you?"
---
"Good girl." Asura ruffled her hair. "Now, is something bothering you? Answer me honestly."

[Balsam]

"I do." Ring said. She thought for a moment. "... When will any of them get back...?"
---
"W-well, yes. I felt bad for that question. I sh-should have known..."

[warlord.]

"I have no idea..."
---
"Oh, it's quite alright. Now, come with me, dear..." Asura walked off into the darkness.

[Balsam]

('Let's see. The shota is... I dunno. He may be safe? But he may not be.')

"'Cause that's reassuring..."
---
Rin followed him.

[warlord.]

"Yeah..."

Akise stumbled inside, holding Len, and collapsed on the floor, causing blood to spatter around them. "We're here..."
---
Asura soon walked into a fairly lit room with a large chair modled to look like a throne in the center. "Here we are. This is going to be your room from now on. There is a bed for you over there." he pointed to a small bed in the corner of the room.

[Balsam]

Ring saw them and gasped. "Oh my... What the fluff?! What happened to you two?!"
---
Rin nodded. "Alright. Thank you, sir."

[warlord.]

Lui's eyes widened as he stared at them.

"N-nevermind us. Rin-chan's in trouble..."
---
"You're quite welcome. Feel free to go to bed whenever you're tired. Otherwise, join me at my throne." Asura walked over to the said chair and sat down on it.
