vocaloidressing | Meanwhile...

[Oh--well. Didn't expect that, but he didn't object. Especially after seeing how happy Len was to get his arms around Rin. It was such a heartwarming sight...kind of made him wonder if his Rin and her Len were this close.]

[started as Len picks her up, but laughs and laughs-- out of sheer relief, really, as she is spun around]

I am-- I am and you are here! You are alive!

[Rin's not going to hug you, Mr. Priest, but please enjoy a blinding smile instead]

I-- I thank you so much, Sir! You are amazing! None of the doctors could do anything... I had been expecting...

[she trails off with a little wince, then seems to shake herself out of it, glancing back over at Len]

[While Len has a small moment of realization himself- that he probably didn't make out of their original time line alive, either(not that he had been expecting too)- he's really too happy to care about that right now.]

You don't have to worry about that now. Not any of it. [Back to hand-holding, okay? ~~Feel free to lean on him if you get tired from standing.~~]

[Rin goes a little red in the face, the fact that she's been holding Len's hand on and off for quite a while now catching up with her]

I... there's so much to say...

[~~Don't forget him carrying you there.~~ Len might be blushing a bit himself, now. But he's probably not going to let go of her hand for some time to come.]

Why not start with your name?

[well, she doesn't mind at all, please don't mind all the blushing!]

I'm... Rin. Rin Worth.

[she giggles a little awkwardly then gives him a shy smile]

I would like to know yours as well.

Len Kagamine.

[He doesn't mind the blushing, it's adorable! Anyway, he's likely to make it worse with his next comment.(Said too quiet for Gakupo to hear, of course.)]
Your name is much cuter, though.

...Wait a moment.

You two aren't related?

[Turning back to Gakupo, Len shakes his head.]
We aren't like the others, this is the first time we've gotten to meet without a fence between us.

I was in a- [He stops a second, not wanting to say the word 'execution' in front of Rin.] ...Prison camp.

We've only written letters to each other.

[the 'cuter' bit had caused Rin to squeak, turn redder, and fall silent momentarily. She finds her voice again as the conversation takes an unusual turn.

To Len:] I... I like your name too!

[To Gakupo:] Related? Why would we be related?

[winces again and nods at the mention of the camp and fence, though the 'letters' part brings a nostalgic fond smile to her face.

Rin's wondering who 'the others' are now, too]

...Oh. I...see.

[Well...there was that one girl who kept calling him "Big Brother". Guess that was just another way the Dressing Room screwed around with people.]

[You'll just have to get used to such things, Gakupo. Meanwhile Len(who is blushing slightly from Rin's compliment now as well), is rubbing the back of his head with his free hand as he wonders where to start explaining.]

There's...a lot to explain now, I suppose.
It's going to sound weird but we're not in the same world anymore, Rin.

I... thought it was the world after... life, at first. But you said...

[looks confused]

Where would we be then?

Heh! You know, I'm not entirely sure myself? But it's called 'The Dressing Room' and there a lot of people from 'alternate worlds' here.

The same people, even. A lot of them. A lot of you and mes...and apparently in other worlds we end up as siblings most often. Which is weird, but what about this place isn't??

That's an unusual name!

[looks mildly shocked]

The idea of alternate worlds is, well, hard to believe! It sounds like something out of one of those pulp novels... But after seeing that magic... and, well...

[flushes again]

...if you say it is true... then I suppose it must be!

...

...Siblings?

I know, it's strange, isn't it? But that's not us.

Anyway, why not come see for yourself?
[Len tugs lightly on Rin's hand in the direction of the still-open door. He's sure she'll want to walk around on her own two feet, at least until she gets tired.]

Very. But that's true...

I... would like to meet them, I think. The 'other us' here.

[it would be weird, certainly, but who wouldn't be curious?

In the meantime, Rin happily once more steps down from the table, relishing in the feeling of standing upright.]

I would be happy to!

Most of them are very interesting, oh-...but there's a me with one eye who's....well, just avoid him if you can.

[Creepy versions of himself aside, Len is clearly excited to lead Rin to the door- only stopping when he remembers how he kicked the door in.
It looked fine, but he waved back to Gakupo all the same.]

Sorry about the door, Priest Gakupo! I think it's alright, though.

Oh don't worry about it, you two go on ahead.

[Like he'd further delay something like this, odd as it may be. After all, the door was probably fine.

...He hoped.]

[avoiding a... Len? It's hard to imagine why she'd want to do that. Clearly this place must be very very strange!]

Thank you again, um, Priest Gakupo! I'll never forget this! Never ever!

Neither of us will. [Don't worry Gakupo, Len can come back and fix the door if need be. But right now he's too busy leading Rin out the door into the world she'd never seen before.

And, chances are it wouldn't take them five minutes to pass more Kagamines' to prove what Len said was true.]

[after several minutes have passed since they left the library]

I... still can't believe this is real.
