[ It's another fine day in the Tohsaka household. As usual, Rin should be able to wake up to find breakfast ready, complete with tea made just the way she likes it. It's been that way since Archer returned to her side.
Last night's attempt to practice magecraft took more mana than it usually does, so she'll really be looking forward to it this morning, right?
But when she wakes up, there's no breakfast waiting. Doesn't Archer know better than to upset her early in the morning like that? Come to think of it, where is he? His presence is there, but he can't seem to be found anywhere in the house... ]
[by the time Rin rolls out of bed it's well after breakfast time (so really he has no excuse). waking up on the floor- because she literally rolled out of the bed- a sleepy Tohsaka sits up and elegantly wipes the drool from her chin. messy dark waves cascade down the length of her back... in addition to sticking out wildly in all different directions.

bleary eyed she turns her head and glances first to the left, then right... no sign of beef cakes mcgee??? or any actual beef cakes. sad fais. eventually she manages to peel herself up off the floor and staggers downstairs in search of her manservant but also more importantly FOOD. except there is no food-- well sure there's tons of food in the pantry but nothing is prepared and FUCK KITCHEN APPLIANCES WITH THEIR ADVANCED TECHNOLOGICAL FUNCTIONS.
this is not fine. Rin no happy. RIN SMASH. pictured: Rin stomping around the house like an angry troll in kawaii cat pajamas. she'll be checking every nook and cranny- even outdoors. of course she could always summon him to her- but it's too early to brain properly where's the fun in that??]
[cue the least graceful leap of shock known to man-- she nearly squishes him like a bug during her spazzing! frazzled and unbalanced she swivels around, fully prepared to blow up at him for the unnecessary scare- except... she doesn't see him? weird. he's typically pretty hard to miss, big bara bear that he is.
finally, when he speaks up for the second time, Rin's gaze follows the sound of his voice down by her feet. she stares at him down there, gaping, for several prolonged seconds before dropping down to her knees.]
A-Archer...? [she lifts her hand as if to reach for him- but pauses midway, hesitating. she must still be sleeping... something this absurd could only happen in a dream, right? taking that same hand she pinches her own arm instead and winces slightly at the pain it causes.] Ah...
[UNSURE]
What is the meaning of this, Archer? Explain yourself, right this minute!
[because it's clear none of this is making any sense to her at all.]
[she may or may not be making a shrinking motion with her thumb and forefinger in awe throughout his explination- until he gets to the part where he implies it's all her fault. rude??? Rin squints, her expression instantly falling flat as she frowns down at him.]
Are you blaming me for this? [she crosses her arms, slightly huffy.] Don't be ridiculous. I couldn't possibly have anticipated such an extreme reaction.
[a first rate magus like herself wouldn't make such careless mistakes! it's definitely not her fault!!!]
At worst I thought you'd be forced to dematerialize for a while.
[she... waves her hand dismissively. it's definitely her fault. but she doesn't seem as though she feels at all guilty, rather she appears quite irritated.]
It most certainly is something to be concerned about. How are you going to prepare breakfast if you're like this???

Rin.
[ His voice sounds from somewhere nearby, cool as ever.
But where is Archer himself? Come to think of it, there's something slightly off about the sound of his voice... ]
It seems we have a problem.
[ Rin will have to look down at her bare feet to see him. He's standing there, arms folded over his chest. He is approximately six inches tall. ]

[ Is he telling her she's being silly and thoughtless? No, he couldn't possibly be doing that.
Just kidding, he totally is. ]
You overextended your mana in yesterday's practice, and as a result, you can no longer sustain me in my full size.
[ He straightens up slightly. He's still not even seven inches high. ]
But it's nothing to be concerned about. I'll find a way to fix this.
