[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.
