[It's definitely not the Rin that Yukio knows, not in any form. This Rin is a bit more...subdued, maybe? Slightly less energetic? Expresses himself without those huge smiles and goofy yelling that Yukio might expect of Rin? All of that, and more. Because this is a Rin that has Seen Some Shit.
He takes a few steps closer, holding a hand out like he's about to touch Yukio. Like he's seeing a ghost or something.]
Shit, what happened to you? The doctors didn't fuck up that badly, did they?
[He says it as a joke, but the worry there is legit: his Yukio had been in the care of doctors, and he thought they had done something to him.]
[Yukio knows what he looks like. He might not have a reflection anymore but he knows he looks like a freak, knows it's enough to catch people off guard, to get what is that thrown at him from strangers. From Rin, it stings.]
No, they didn't. [What doctors? Yukio's missing pieces, but he needs to make sure Rin understands that.]
The first thing you need to understand is that I am not the version of Okumura Yukio you know, and you are not the same person I know.
[Run had been about to ask how that's possible, but he stops himself short. After all, he knows of another instance of two of the same people existing.
Just thinking of that particular asshole makes him frown. No matter where he goes, that guy echoes through his life doesn't he?]
I guess that'd explain why you're not in the hospital. I knew there was no way Dad would let you out so soon.
... dad? [Slips out before he can stop it. If Rin's saying that...
It's a different world. It's an incredibly different world, but it's not Yukio's world. He moves past that quickly, shoves it to the side and moves on to explanations.]
I think for now the best solution to our problem is to figure out how to get me back to where I came from.
Probably. I mean, you're still my brother no matter what you look like, but I know of a few asshole who would give you a hard time. You don't deserve that crap.
But, well...do I look different there too? Where you're from I mean. And what about Dad?
My current appearance is a result of an... unfortunate set of circumstances involving a deal with an extremely powerful fae and her worldhopping carnival.
My brother's changes were more dramatic than mine, but I don't think he minds the wings. [that last question? DODGED]
[Steel will burn him too, just more slowly. It's hard, having a sensitivity like this to almost all the metal he'll ever work with. But the hilt is covered, and so that's enough to keep it from burning him.]
I've never seen anything like this before. No one can do this back home. [Rin is a sword and Yukio really should have put more effort into his Knight training when Shura was still around.]

So is his guard wing-shaped too? Or is his Artifact-form normal? And does that mean that his Catalyst can fly too?
