And Rin definitely plays visual novel games so he's. Familiar. With how the screen is set up. Even if he's seeing it from the other side, it doesn't take much for him to piece it together.
And then he's staring at Monika in some mixture of fear and horror.]
That- is that what I think it is?
[He's not afraid of Monika. He's afraid of the fact that video games might be sentient, if he's understanding these implications.]
[... Hm. She doesn't know what's going through his head right now. All she can see is the expression on his face, which she returns with a bit of wariness.]

Week 2, post-execution
Date: 2021-10-17 11:06 pm (UTC)Which means Rin is standing near a tall shelf, while Rinkou is up on the shelf, in cat form and with a paw on a vase of some sort.]
Don't you fucking dare, you piece of shit cat!
[Rinkou pushes the vase sliiiiiightly closer to the edge. Watch out, Monika.]

Is everything okay...? What's with all the shouting?
[Hello?? She has not noticed the vase situation.]
no subject
Date: 2021-10-18 03:44 am (UTC)Mostly because Rin is screaming and moving to try and drag Monika out of the way of the vase.]
Look out!

She is getting dragged

Date: 2021-10-21 01:09 pm (UTC)... Do you think it is?
no subject
Date: 2021-10-21 01:42 pm (UTC)I-I'm so sorry! I didn't know video games were real people!
[Does he really understand?]
no subject
Date: 2021-10-23 03:11 pm (UTC)[Sir...?]
Just what kind of things have you been doing in video games?
no subject
Date: 2021-10-23 03:21 pm (UTC)[Yeah its relatively innocent. But he's still embarrassed!]
no subject
Date: 2021-10-24 03:59 pm (UTC)[That's so innocent. Sweet, sweet Rin.]
... Anyway, most fictional characters aren't even aware of their situation. I'm just a special case.
no subject
Date: 2021-10-24 04:19 pm (UTC)...and yeah, you're special. Because you're here!
[Rin's not sure if he should call her a 'real person' but that's the sentiment he's getting at.]
We can see you, so you don't have to be lonely anymore.
