[At this moment in time, Rin isn't sure who or what he's supposed to believe and whether or not it would be morally right to do so. Ever since arriving here, he's been at war with himself. His sense of justice, his pride, morale, and emotions. Just because he believes certain practices and laws are wrong in this world, doesn't mean they actually are by the higher ups' standards. He can fight and argue and disagree with everything as much as he wants... and in the end this will be the result. This awful sting, the agonizing weight within his chest.
Is any of the pain truly worth it?
Rin doesn't respond to Sousuke's question, because once they're moving through time and space, funny enough, there's no time to form a proper response. In an instant, they've arrived, and in an instant the walls seem to be shrinking in on them, tighter and tighter with each suffocating sensation Sousuke feels. Revulsion, panic, distrust. He wants to leave, he has to leave, and if he doesn't--
Were he more experienced with this, he might be able to stand on his own two feet. He might be able to speak clearly, normally, and casually walk himself to the water source without his shinki's assistance. But he's brand new and he's terrified and truth be told, the moment Sousuke catches onto his shoulder, Rin has to bite back a startled yell. He's still a human under all of this, a human that's telling him he's going to die if they don't fix this quick. So... it's probably for the best that Sousuke takes action when he does, hoisting him up off the ground quick enough to make Rin's head spin.]
I'm fine, I'm fine... Oy...
[He'd complain more about this, but it's hard to concentrate when all he wants to do is keep adding pressure to his neck. Still, somehow he cracks one eye open and slowly gestures across the room to where a door leads to another, much smaller room inside. He should have teleported them in there to begin with, but, again. New to this. The pool was the first thing on his mind.]
