As Rin listened to Mana explaining where she came from, and that it was somewhere in the center of the country, she got a bit of an embarrassed blush on her face. In truth, she had no idea where that was; she never really payed attention to geography and had a horrible sense of direction. When she had asked how far away it was, she meant it in terms of actual distance, kilometers and such, but she simply nodded as if she knew what Mana was talking about. "Oh, alright!~ Gotcha."
After speaking, Rin was about to look back at Mana again, but she noticed the same waitress from earlier coming out of the kitchen with the dumplings she had ordered. She bit her lip in excitement, she was practically starving having neglected to eat breakfast. Because of her new focus of attention on the waitress that was bringing her food, Rin didn't notice the smile that crossed Mana's face, however she did catch the little giggle, which made her happy to hear. It was a pleasant sound, though quiet. She was at the point of staring wide-eyed at the food she was about to receive, her mouth hanging open a bit, when she heard the beautiful Mana mention that she was a native of the country. She turned her head, though her expression didn't change physically -- it's just that now it was more out of surprise than desire. "What? No way!~ But I've never seen anyone like... Wait, I already said that... Still, there's no way! Are you serious?" Rin was giggling again by the time she finished speaking. She managed to quiet herself down, taking her dumplings from the waitress before listening intently to whatever Mana had to say next.
After Mana finished speaking, Rin nodded again and smiled sweetly at her. "Oh, German~ I've heard a little about the other peoples of the world. I heard germans had a tendency to be very pretty, so I shouldn't be surprised, huh? " She asked, continuing to giggle softly. "My parents were from India, actually. They were supposedly great adventurers, but they ditched me at an orphanage 'cuz they were scared of the responsibility." Rin said this as if it was a completely normal thing and, in fact, it actually was, but her tone sounded so nonchalant. It was like she had no feelings on the matter at all, with how she seemed to joke about it. "Say, speaking of countries abroad, what about this one? What do you think of the war going on in our home?" She didn't know why she asked the question, she was really just trying to continue her conversation with the interesting girl she had met. She definitely had taken a liking to the girl, and she had heard questions on feelings about the war asked more than a few times before so she gave it a shot. She hoped, in the back of her mind, that asking would not prove to be a mistake as she bit into one of her dumplings and chewed thoughtfully.

"Omi? How far away is that?" Rin was enjoying the pleasantries of conversation much more than she normally would, mostly because, in comparison to sitting around all day, it was fairly interesting. The girl she wound up talking to didn't seem too interested in speaking, but Rin overlooked that fact for the time being, because she had nothing better to do than talk and noone else looked even remotely interesting. She was fascinated, actually, by the colors of Mana, mainly the pigment of her skin and her eye color. She had never actually seen an albino person before, even in art, and she thought, for whatever reason, it was extraordinarily beautiful.
She suddenly snapped out of her entrancement when Mana spoke up about how long she had been looking at her. She blinked a few times, mostly remaining still with a calm smile on her face, but after a moment she let out a soft giggle. She was certainly being foolish today, first sitting practically on top of some girl in an attempt to sit alone, and then staring at that girl like she was some sort of exhibit at an art gallery. "Oh, no! Nothing's wrong at all, I'm simply a fool. Pay no mind to my mannerisms, please. I just realized, actually, that I have yet to introduce myself! I am Kobayashi Haruna, and though it may be odd I prefer to be called 'Rin'." As she spoke, Rin looked off to the side and examined the crowd of people in the tavern once more, crossing her legs and staring intently at the door to the kitchen, wanting her food to come out soon. "As for why I was staring at you... It's just that I find you fascinating. I've never seen someone with such snowy skin and hair, and those striking red eyes!" Rin cut herself off by giggling again as she realized how strange she might have sounded, spouting admiration at the girl after staring at her so intently. She must have seemed like she was 'coming on' to Mana at this point.

Rin waved over a waitress as she heard Mana speak, quickly ordering some dumplings before returning to what conversation she could manage. "Well, yes. But I didn't expect to be so rude... I really wish this place wasn't so crowded sometimes. If you'd prefer to sit alone I'll remain quiet." The tone of Rin's voice was that of someone saying something final, as she was assuming that this was in fact the case. Internally, of course, Rin was excitedly bubbling over the situation, giggling in her head about how ridiculous she must look and thinking that she was clearly meant to talk to this albino woman.
As the waitress finished taking her order, Rin examined her silently as she walked off to the kitchen, smiling to herself for some reason. As the waitress disappeared from sight through the door to the kitchen of the tavern, Rin's eyes returned to Mana, examining her in a similar fashion, seeming quite interested in her stark white looks. Interested in the girl in general, for that matter. Disregarding her previous claim to remaining silent, Rin spoke up once more, "So, where are you from? Any reason to be in town, or are you just passing through like most?" Rin's voice was soft and kind as she asked questions that really weren't any of her business, but she was feeling curious today and she just couldn't shake the desire to talk, especially since she had been quite the bored girl all day.

Rin had been hanging out in the little trading town for a while when Mana arrived, mostly just walking around and chatting peacefully with villagers, making sure to get in any trouble, or at least doing her best to avoid it. She was glad for the calm. She was a survivor, not really a fighter, and though she often found battles fun and exciting they got a bit taxing, especially when you weren't godlike in stature like 'big boss'.
Not too long after Mana had located the most popular -- and only -- tavern in town, Rin decided to head that way herself. She was feeling a bit hungry, and thought she might try to 'dine and dash', since she was fairly short on cash. Entering the tavern, she nonchalantly brushed off several flirts thrown her way by some of the men and walked right on through, gently pushing aside those who didn't politely step out of her way. Though, the tougher and meaner looking ones, she just maneuvered around. She couldn't seem to find an open seat, and after a while got a stressed look on her face; eyebrows furrowed and lips curled downward in a small frown. Eventually she decided to steal a chair from one of the tables, pulling it out and spinning it around before plopping herself onto it firmly.
She had done this, rather unknowingly, right next to the vibrantly white girl who had just received her order. It was mainly so that she could have a seat to herself and not have to talk to anyone, but for some reason she had managed to be in almost disturbingly close proximity to Mana; even comically so, still without even realizing the girl was there. Rin's face now returning to it's normal, cool look with a slight smile attached, she turned it to scan the room, looking for a waitress. It was now that she finally spotted the girl that she had encroached upon. She had turned her head to the side just enough to see a strikingly albino young thing, and as she spotted the girl Rin almost seemed to start a little. She got control of herself quickly enough, and simply cleared her throat before speaking in a collected tone that sounded forced ontop of one that wanted desperately to laugh at her own blunder, "Oh my... Apologies, I forgot to ask if I could sit here first. How rude of me."
((OOC: Sorry, I'm kinda sleepy right now. Hope this is good enough for you to work with!))

Name: Kobayashi Haruna "Rin" Faction: Date Ethnicity: Born Japanese from Indian Parents Age: 19 Gender: Female Height: 5'3" Weight: 113 lbs Eye Color: Green Hair Color: Black Appearance:Personality: Haruna prefers to be called 'Rin', so I will be referring to her as such from here on. Rin is, in essence, an extrovert. It's hard to tag her with this generalization though, because there are times when she is quite introverted as well, such as when she is alone or whenever she 'just isn't feeling it' that day. She likes to go with the flow, and as such has no strong ties of loyalty at the moment, though she does prefer to stick with the people she likes. In any case though, she generally just does whatever she thinks would be fun, or would help her survive in the war-torn land. Because of this view, she has no strong feelings about the war one way or the other, often heard saying stuff like 'whatever happens happens', and that it's 'meant to be'. She's not the type to interfere with the world, believing that beyond her own survival and personal ties, she has no right to screw with the lives of others. Still, this belief is a notably loose one, as she just as often as not disregards it entirely, being prone to spurs of random heroic spirit or malevolent contempt for another. She's certainly the calm and cool type of person more than 50% of the time, but there are situations in which this is far from the case. The first, and main, of these situations would be around her friends. Around people she has known closely and long enough to consider them a friend, she feels much more comfortable and lets down her front of being the cool-headed chick. She becomes much more bubbly and energetic, and is a very touchy-feely person. She has a bad habit of groping other girls, often under the guise of 'comparing', but it's mainly just to mess with them. Her belief still stands, however, that people should just go with the flow. Do what you want, and whatever happens will happen, because it was simply meant to. Another time where she's not so much of a 'cool girl' is when she gets a crush. Rin is far from graceful at these times, often daydreams about the person whenever she's not fighting, and is even more clumsy than normal; this clumsiness, of course, intensifying based on proximity to the object of her desire. She can be described as an airhead at these times, being forgetful and clumsy, not paying much attention, etc., and is also quite shy in regards to the person she likes. She is easily wooed and charmed by even the smallest compliment tossed her way by that person, and if she ever accidentally touches the person or is touched by them, even with something as simple as a handshake, her face turns red as a tomato and she loses all ability to speak coherently. Over all, she is a very chaotic, but at the same time 'go with the flow' type of girl. She's wild and unpredictable, and as such her personality is not easily defined, but you can safely bet on her just doing whatever it takes to get by, at least until she develops some form of strong feelings about the war or strong ties of loyalty to a people or cause. If she were to do so, she would pursue that cause or the cause of that group with as much passion as she can muster, which is, to say, not that much, but it's still more than she would normally put into something. Despite this lackadaisical, chaotic, and rather selfish personality, though, she is likely to join in battles for the fun of it, and she'll do what she's told to if it comes from someone she recognizes as a superior, but only to the point where she could die, when she will likely abandon her orders. As mentioned earlier, though, she does have random spurs of heroism or evil, depending on uncountable variables, and unpredictable ones as well such as how she's feeling that day. History: Rin's parents were Indian. They came to Japan on an adventure, more than anything, believing that they should try to go out and explore the world. They were an odd couple, and sickeningly romantic, but they were sweet and brave. When they had Rin, though, that bravery didn't prove strong enough to attempt raising a child, and they left her with an orphanage, which gave her a Japanese name. She grew up with the other kids at the orphanage, having play fights with them, getting into trouble, all sorts of kid stuff, normally on the more boyish end. Once she was 16, though, her orphanage was accidentally burnt to the ground in the middle of a small battle, forcing her out into the world on her own. She learned how to fight and survive, mostly from watching others and reading various texts, and from what little experience she had with play fights at the orphanage, which resulted in her having an oddly playful looking style of combat. She made the conscious decision not to kill unless she absolutely had to at the age of 17, and as such she uses generally non-lethal tactics, or at least attempts to help those she fatally wounds. Many have called her weak for it, but she just doesn't want to be the cause of anyone's grief. She joined the Date faction at age 18, though she really only did so for the protection and the sense of home. She was lonely, you could say, and scared of being on her own as the war got progressively worse. She figured she might as well join up with someone who could help her survive, but these selfish reasons for her joining are why she has not yet developed strong bonds of loyalty to the date. She is not opposed to such loyalties, she just possesses none.
