It seemed like the obvious solution to a young Kotomine's problems, to me.Originally Posted by Santo
After all, if you're going to designate an entire set of species as being blasphemy against God, you might as well encourage the executioner who can only take joy in suffering to couple work with play.

I can't shake the image of Gilgamesh in priest robes on the other side of the confessional.
Awesome, just awesome...
You have NO fucking idea how much enjoyment I derive out of this thread after a day of surfing FFN looking for something good.
A pleasure to read man...a fucking pleasure.
@Fafnir: Your sanity wishes it were Gilgamesh.

My sanity is telling me it was future Kotomine on the other side, because second magic and time travel, also "rejoice!"
I don't listen to my sanity much anymore.
Your sanity is wrong, Names.

I did mention I don't listen to it anymore.
Any hints on who was on the other side, though?
@Aiden: This was my favorite one so far. Thank you for the story. Any chance of another set in the same setting after?
Let the victor...be justice.
@Bloble: You shut the hell up, you're like in every RP on the page, you MIRACULOUSLY LUCKY whore-monger. You not getting in is like me winning the lottery in two states, obtaining a girlfriend, and not ending up nursing another migraine, simultaneously, by the end of this evening.
Honestly, guys, the answer is quite simple.
The person on the other side of the confessional was [CENSORED]
@Soldat: If you read the bottom of my first post in this thread, you will notice I put the Kotomine drabble under a category in my 'Magitech' setting.

HE WAS ROCKY BALBOA? Shit son.
just Making a reference to my crack fic, Fate/Stay mad. Ignore me
Whoa. Thank you for fulfilling my oddly specific wish for a "Kirei in a confessional" story. It's always fun seeing him mopey.
I do not know what I just read, but I know it is awesome.
Sunset, part 2
========================
Rin's mind almost shut down.
Was... was her face wet?
No, she didn't do that kind of thing.
She wasn't a little girl anymore.
She was a magus, and she was fighting a war.
So she didn't let that kind of response happen.
She didn't, shut up.
--------------------------
That took a lot out of her to say.
Maybe Rin was right about her not being ready to be out of the hospital just yet?
She was right about a lot of things, so it'd make sense.
Oh. Oh no, did she say something wrong?!
Rin ... crying?
Or maybe it was just the light from the hall window, making her see things.
If she wasn't certain she would stumble by getting up on her own, she'd have tried to do something anyway.
---------------------------
Yukika was getting worried.
Okay, so she must have been crying.
Damnit.
She did her best to draw attention away from that by giving the girl a little smile.
"How did you end up so understanding, anyway?"
Because honestly, what the hell?
Was a person who could be that way even real?
"Anyone else would hate me. Emiya-kun doesn't even know I ..."
She glanced around, making sure nobody was listening. No reason to get caught now.
"... that I killed that person."
----------------------------
Wait.
Wait wait wait.
Emiya, Emiya... um.
Wasn't he that boy from the Archery Club?
Who was always helping out Ryuudo-kun?
What was Rin doing around him?
"A-Ah? Why was he there?"
Her confusion must have shown, given she could feel her own eyes blinking against her will.
-----------------------------
Oh, shit, that was bad.
That was not the kind of thing to mention when a girl decided to just let their heart bleed all over you and show concern and, and fuck.
But before she could explain herself, Yukika continued on.
-----------------------------
Rude, Saegusa Yukika.
That was so very, very rude and inconsiderate and horrible of her to bring up.
Just because the very thought of Rin spending a lot of time with a guy made her want to curl up in a corner-
"W-Wait, that was invasive... um. If you don't want to tell me, that's fine! Really, I-I don't mean to make things harder on you like that, if you're..."
-----------------------------
She was stopping that line of thought right in its tracks, before she hurt the girl.
"... kind of a long, complex story."
Oh, like that wasn't suspicious.
Idiot, idiot, idiot!
-----------------------------
Saegusa Yukika was not a dumb girl.
She wasn't smart, that was something she was sure of, because the only thing she really did that well in were science courses, but she wasn't dumb enough to put her foot into something that was going to cause Rin all sorts of trouble.
Like she knew she almost had.
Right then.
"... is that code for 'not right now'? Really, it's fine. Don't feel pressured to tell me anything you can't tell me!"
------------------------------
Her insistent nod and look of determination made Rin's head hurt, just a bit.
Guh.
Why? It was obvious the girl wanted to know. Why was she just...
"... as long as you don't think I'm dating him or anything."
That adorable smile-damnit!
------------------------------
"R-Really?! You mean you aren't?"
She couldn't do subtle right now.
That was something she really, really had to confirm. Because anything other than confirmation would probably break her right now.
After all of that...
------------------------------
"I'm not."
Be firm, but gentle.
"I mean, I live with him right now, but... circumstances. Sorry, I can't really explain it."
And it was true, because anyone getting word that Yukika knew anything more than she already did would paint a big damn target on her back.
------------------------------
Darn. No explaination at all?
...
...
"Oh, well... I'll believe you."
Because Rin was saying it, and-
"Because even if you were lying, it's probably because you had to."
- she knew this. Even if Rin wasn't that perfect school idol, she was a good person.
-------------------------------
"Something like that, yeah."
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
The last thing she needed was an inquisition right now, especially since there were all sorts of ways for someone to pry into the defenseless girl's mind-
And wow it was getting late.
"... look, the sun's almost gone right now. Do you... do you want me to help you get home? You're not in any position to make it back before dark like this."
-------------------------------
... she wasn't that shaky, was she?
Wait.
Rin asking to walk her home.
"W-Walk me- YES! Um. Wait, uh, I mean... yes."
Right the first time, Yukika.
Just be honest, it was working so far. Maybe.
She hoped.
------------------------------
"Good, then let's hurry up before it starts getting cold again like last-"
Before Rin could finish responding, she found herself tripping backwards from the sudden enthusiasm of Saegusa Yukika, who had gotten off the desk on her own and was just now stumbling into her.
... face over her own, once the girl lifted up her head, looking down into her eyes.
And her hair was just the right color to catch the light of twilight from the hall.
Oh God.
==============================
Hm.
I don't know about this one, I'm a little tired today from going to bed a little later than I thought I would.
Oh well, a promise was a promise!

Evil cliffhanger is evil.
Otherwise, I like. About damn time someone showed Rin some unwavering affection and support, God knows the girl needs it.
Aiden, You are an awesome person for this! KEEP GIVING ME/US MOAR.
Or I'll have to rally all the BL-ers to raid your house, kidnap you and force you into writing. They'd join me too.
You stop that now, I already laid claim to him.
...
Does that mean you'd help us raid the house, only to steal him away at a later date?
Clever girl.
