The Slums
SINIB:
Rin
"I can't sign something like that, what if she attacks me!" Rin protested. She ignored the fact he didn't seem to get she could force him into a blood contract as well.
"You can't speak a word of any of this to anyone, as long as you live. All you can say is that I've treated you humanely and that there's no reason to go after me."
She wanted him to say yes.
Cherry Lover:
Shirou
Shirou sighed again, and frowned. He could completely understand her concerns, but what she was demanding was completely unreasonable. She was expecting him to assist her in murdering his wife, and not to even be able to explain why. So, he thought for a few moments, before giving his response.
"I do understand that you need to be able to defend yourself, but I am not willing to allow you to murder my wife without even being able to help defend her. But, I will agree to a compromise. If you agree not to attack my wife unless she directly attacks you, and to avoid killing or permanently maiming her, then I will agree to aid you", he said.
"As for what I can say, I understand your concern, but I would prefer a little more freedom to explain things. If all I can say is that I was humanely treated, that sounds extremely suspicious, she might think I'm being forced to lie, or controlled. At minimum, I would like to be able to explain why I cannot tell her any more information."
SINIB:
Rin
Rin simply raised an eyebrow. "And being able to tell her I made you sign a geas contract is better how, exactly?"
She wasn't really sure about that. Her experience with Sakura was as a volatile, unpredictable woman who jumped from being a calm, grieving widow to a brutal, violent fury seemingly at the drop of a hat.
Cherry Lover:
Shirou
Shirou sighed again.
"If I can explain what I signed and why, I'm sure she'll be fine with it. Sakura doesn't have any reason to want to hurt you as long as you're no threat to us, she just wants to make sure I'm safe", he said.
SINIB:
Rin
"I kidnapped you. That's reason enough for her. The Sakura you're describing is moat certainly not the Sakura I know." She answered curtly. "I'll draft up a geas for you to sign. We don't have time for this kind of prolonged debate."
