[Rin sounds plaintive, if not afraid or dramatically emotional.]

Wow. These people being attacked, you know, in the past few days! This is so sad - especially if we're supposed to be fighting together. It's really a shame that problems like this will cause strife. I hope everyone who got hurt will be all right. [Even if she's not totally surprised by such events, even misled as she might be.]

Though, it doesn't really even feel like we're in a war, does it? I would think that life would be a lot more difficult if we were, you know, feeling the pinch. If we were running short on food and such. But I haven't really noticed anything like that around? At least that's nice.

There must be other people around who aren't from this time, anyway. Well, I mean, that's obvious, since it's very much later in the future here, but even with that it doesn't seem all that... fancy to me. Who else really isn't from around now? I know it can't be just me.

[ He doesn't sound so well, a little hoarse and tired and not his usual smug annoying wat. In fact, it sounds like he is working his way into a full-out sulk. Which usually involves a lot of people getting hurt in creative ways but he doesn't feel up to it. So instead, he will ramble about a few things on his mind. ]

How many secrets are hidden in this place? How many do you think that they will let us find? Their past, their records are incomplete - books with torn pages and blackened names, pieces never fully recovered in the centuries that they have been here.

What of us then? How many of us hide behind masks? How many do not tell truths and how many are not what they may seem to be. [ A brief bit of laughter, ended with a a slight intake of air and a quiet '...shit'. ] The Initiative saw something in each of us that they may put to use. I think that we may need to be open of what that something is.

Or at least learn how to act coherently together. It is always easier to pick off a group that does not work together or so I would believe from various media. Think on that as well.
