[font=trebuchet ms]/set after Play recovers physically
Yet again, the situation- or at least, Rin's perception of it- had been upended.
A god, Playerone had said. Certainly, the increased electrical potential in the air whenever she was near was undeniable, as was her relatively-quick recovery (though it would've been quicker had she stayed in bed more often). Through some means or another, she had experienced a power boost, and while Rin hadn't yet seen those powers in action she wouldn't have been surprised if that increase was astronomical in scale.
She supposed she was grateful that an ally had come into so much power, but... it couldn't be that simple. Play's newfound powers could have devastating side effects, assuming she could control them enough for them not to go haywire and injure her on their own. Her behavior was different, too, in a way that Rin struggled to pin down. All that stuff about being a "protector," right after everyone- Play included- had taken Rin to task for describing herself in the same way... it didn't add up. From what Rin had observed, Play didn't seem the type to forget such a vital lesson, even if she was selfless by nature.
Even if it really was that simple- Play still being herself, her powers being controllable and not having destructive drawbacks- the wyvern she'd slain was just one of the many supernatural foes that Elysium had to defend themselves against. It would take all of Elysium's strength to face whatever the gods wrought.
Rin clambered up onto the peak of the mountain, looking around her. Nobody was there, and she suspected nobody would be coming up here for the moment. "Alright," she muttered, half to herself, turning back to check that Play had made it up the mountain after her. Sitting down, she tugged at her scarf with one paw, running through what to say in her head.
Finally, she said to Play, "You said you had something you wanted to talk about, so I'll let you talk first."
