Work Text:
Rin sat with her hair tied back behind her ribbon, making her look almost like her twin brother. Save for the fact that her twin brother was currently asleep on the bunk bed below her. Rin sighed and turned around in her sheets once again, still considering whether changing into pajamas was really worth moving. She can’t seem to find a comfortable position, but she knows she would still rather be here than anywhere else.
“Len, are you awake?” She asked. Usually, when she would do this, she would swing from the ladder or poke her head somewhere, but she doesn’t feel like moving, so the next best thing would be to peek from the cracks between the mattress and frame.
Len mumbled something that sounded like ‘shut up’ or ‘go to sleep,’ which is unfail because those are her lines.
She hates this; she wants nothing more in the world but rest, but still can’t go to sleep. It’s torture. She remembers a time when her father told her that shutting her eyes and falling asleep would make her more well rested but not but still. What is she supposed to do, sit still? Anyone who met her or her twin would know that that was something they were incapable of.
Resting her head against her pillow in a new way, she grabbed a stolen comic book (from Len, of course) and tried to use that to keep herself occupied. It somewhat worked.

She’ll hear it. Again in 30 seconds, she’ll hear that stupid knocking. They don’t have school yet, they don’t have musc practice. For what reason could their mother, father, or either of Rins two siblings that arn’t Len who she could still hear snoring find to knock at their door at what is it? Five in the morning is what it feels like at least— and oh god, here it comes again.
This time the knocking was followed by their Father ,Kaito, walking in the room whike the light from the door.
“Who turned the sun on?” She heard her brother mumble from below in a horse voice causing her to have to suppress and eye roll.
“Are you kids okay she heard her father ask as he approached the bed to get a better look at his two youngests.
“No,” said Len rather bluntly, Rin let out a snort at that that hurt her throught.
“I thought you might feel that way.” Kaito bent down to scratch Lens head. “And you Rin. I know Len was sick yesterday but how do you feel.”
“I feel like that asshole should keep his cold to himself next time, fucking asshole.” She responded trying to merge with her pillow whil doing so.
Her father looked at her with sympathetic eyes not minding the language. “I figured so when you two earlier for school.”
Rin felt a spike of panic at that. “Wait what time is it?”
“The time doesn’t matter becse neither of you are going anywhere”
“But its free pizza day.” Rin said anoyd. Len sat up.
“Pizza day was today. Dad I feel all better now so I’m going to school.” Len said before breaking into a coughing fit.
Kaito sighed at his childrns antics. “I’ll get you pizza when your all better, how about that.”
“But I want pizza now.” Len said with teaes in his voice. This was the thing she always hated about Len being sick. He was always a total crybaby.
“You need to be better first, okay.” Kaito said reasureingly. To be responded with a few snifiles and a ‘Yes’
After that Kaito left them alone for a while promising to make the soup because their Meiko, tier mother, was called into the studio today. When said soup arrived Rin was planning not to eat said thing out of fear of being poisand and made to be more sick.
Rin sat in hr bed for a monument, arms crossed and angry exsperesion on her face. “This is all your fault, asshole.”
She can hear len gasping in (somewhat) mocked offence. “My fault, why whatever do you mean dearest Rilineine?”
She surpressed a chuckle at the nick name in reference to a book her brother and her licked when they where just a little smaller. She quickly got back to annoyance and anger though. “If you hadn’t hung around that Fukasae kid, you know your little boyfriend, when he was sick we wouldn’t be stuck in bed on pizza day.”
She could almost see Lens face annoyed and pouty like it always was, trust her she was always stuck with him enough to a pont where they could replace eatchother bye personality too. Actually they where born identical and still had the same hair length with the main difrence being that Lens trans, mabye if she really tried they could switch places for an hour, she might bring the idea up sometime, that would be a good prank.
Len spoke up and interrupted her sdietrack. “You should know that Id be sick 5 more times just to help Fukase, and Id make you sick 20 more times to do it to.”
“HEY!”
She could hear Len laughing until he threw himself into an acidential coughing fit and buckling over. “Serves you right!” She responded also laughing and almost dyeing as well. She can see how people says that they’re similar now.
Just then they heard some of the most horrifying words there ever heard when Kaito came in and said with his big dad smiling face. “I just finished making soup, it caught on fire a bit but it should be good. I think both of you should try it.”
In that monument Rin started praying to a god she didnt believe in. As Kaito offred them soup they new that their lives, their careers, would be over by the short age of ten. They would die today. They didn’t even qustion how their dad buned a liquid, because of corse he did.
As they started pleading for their lives they realized there mother would not be pleased when she came home to see two dead twins, a concerened father, and food that could coulafiy to be a new type of poison
They are fucked
