[font=trebuchet ms]Goldenluxury's approach caught Rin's attention, and she turned to face her with a nod of greeting. It was nice to see a familiar face- less nice was seeing the bloodshot look in Goldie's eyes and the exhaustion in her posture. Her tiredness and the growing weight on her frame were two details that rarely went together, with one major exception... but if Goldie wasn't volunteering the information, it was probably best to leave the matter be.
Meeting Goldie's eyes, Rin listened as she spoke. Hearing that Idyll hadn't been seen recently, she furrowed her brows. She hadn't accounted for the possibility that Idyll might not even be around anymore. If that was the case, then... that could pose an issue.
Mighty kind, Goldie said. Well, it was only fair to bring compensation when you were going to ask a favor, but Rin would get to that in a moment. As for how they'd been, well... that was less pleasant. Blinking, Rin answered, "...Mostly fine. We've had a few encounters with hostile individuals, but they were taken care of in short order." She briefly debating describing what had happened with the Captain, but decided against it. Glancing to the side, she added, "But a few days ago, there was... an incident."
That's putting it lightly.
"...There were two joiners," she murmured, her ears flattening back. "Er, they seemed like joiners, at least. They didn't get to say much before..." The words, so simple, yet so insistent on clogging her throat with the taste of blood. Her eyes shifted towards the ground, counting the grains of sand. She had to keep it together. It wouldn't do to lose her mind now. She swallowed again, forcing down the bile in her throat.
Finally, she uttered, "They were murdered. Right in front of us."
Shuddering even as the words left her mouth- it probably seemed like she was overly shaken by this, but words couldn't convey all that she had seen- she shook her head. "Something... weird happened to me then," she said, her voice slightly more even as she looked back up at Goldenluxury. "Something that... I was hoping Idyll might know about." She wasn't sure if she should elaborate; she didn't think Goldie would have any use for the details of what had happened to her, but someone else in the Typhoon might.
Clearing her throat, she managed to adopt a neutral expression. "I was also hoping to ask Idyll if they could provide their services as a therapist," she continued, tugging at her scarf. "For myself and some of the other members who witnessed the incident. I'd be happy to provide payment in whatever form the Typhoon would like."
