[ Been a while since Rin herself has made a call, but in all honesty why would she when she can just ask (read: bully) others into speaking for her. That way she doesn't have to deal with a bunch of no-names hassling her for the answers of every little question, but today? Today should be a day for the people of Haven to celebrate and if not, well she tried and therefore no one could say she didn't. ]

Hey, so you remember Jennifer's call about the date nearly a week ago? She said it was February 8th then so you know that today is February 14th, which you know is a holiday in some countries in the world a lot of us are somewhat familiar with. How it's celebrated really isn't all that important, but it's a holiday designated for love--[ The word is spoken in the only form a tsundere can say it in. ]--so I was honestly expecting this thing here to buzz with a billion love confessions.

[ But enough about her poor love life. ]

As a sign of gratitude for reminding you of the holiday, I'd like to hear your opinions on Miss Beth Yao. A number of you have met her and have been told things about her, haven't you? Consider me curious as to your opinions on her. [ A rare, once in a lifetime opportunity for Rin to give a damn about someone's opinion. Grasp it while you can. ] Surely you have to have something in mind after all we've gone through, right? Well, let's hear it. I don't really have all day to sit around waiting on this stupid phone to entertain me, so be prompt with your replies.

[ For those who do know her, a new scar can be seen creeping out from her turtleneck sweater along her neck. She's done her best to cover it up by wearing this outfit of choice, but maybe she underestimates the phone's camera or just doesn't seem to care about it. ]

Alcohol. Not even just on it's own, but you have to put alcohol in everything without telling your guests.

[3d2y]

Zoro would like that.

But that would make everything taste bad! [ he is not a fan of alcohol!! ]

[gandere]

It would make everything taste fun. You just need to use the right alcohol!

You can trust me. I'm an expert on parties.

[3d2y]

Alright, since you're an expert. [ nod nod. she must be telling the truth. ]

I guess I could ask Zoro what booze tastes 'fun'. [ since it's all so bitter to him!!! ]

[gandere]

That sounds right. [ Yes, go on and ask this Zoro person. ]

I'm definitely an expert, but not in liquor. It'll be better if you give him a call and get his input. Just be careful, he might try to talk you out of it in favor of him hogging all the alcohol himself.

[3d2y]

[ Discouraging him from doing things is something Zoro would do if said thing is ridiculous enough. Drinking all the booze is another thing Zoro would do.

Oh ok. ] You're right. He can't get much booze here, so he'll want more for himself.

[ noted... ]

What's this holiday about anyway?

[gandere]

Love. This is why the alcohol is important. What better way to express love than to relax with a nice person after a cup or two?

[ This is all a horrible plan. ]

[3d2y]

[ it is a horrible plan and he doesn't get it ]

Love ...? [ wat?? there's such an incredulity in his tone. ]

What's the booze got to do with it? Do people love drinking that much?

[gandere]

That's right. Without love, the only thing most of these losers can rely on is the booze to get them through their lonely nights.

[3d2y]

[ he still doesn't get it ]

Really? Is that why people drink?

[gandere]

That's one of the reasons. [ It's totally true. ]

Other times they drink because they're rich and can afford to do so in order to show off. People who see others drink tend to think highly of those who do so.

[3d2y]

I never thought of it that way. I don't think Zoro's trying to show off, though.

So he actually wants someone to 'love' ...? [ ???????? yeah thanks rin, he's going to be asking his crewmate something really strange later on. ]

[gandere]

[ Please do. She's here to spread the Valentine's confusion even further. ]

Oh, that's probably it. The poor guy must be lonely...

[3d2y]

I didn't notice this at all! Thanks for letting me know --

Ah, what's your name?

[gandere]

Tohsaka.

[ Smiling all too sweetly. ] Don't forget it.

[3d2y]

"Tohaka", right! [ no he'll probably forget. ]

I'm Luffy, the man who's gonna become Pirate King. It's nice to meet you!

[gandere]

[ He won't be the first. ]

A pirate king? Is that really a thing that can exist? I thought kings were of royal blood, not of... pirate blood.

[3d2y]

'Course it exists! It's my dream! [ this makes sense, really. ]

The Pirate King ... is the one who has sailed the entire world!

[gandere]

I don't think there's any ocean to be sailing here. [ Flatly said. ]

Does that mean you need a new goal? You could aim to be the Convenience Store Pirate instead?
