This is just a smallish series of one-shot/drabbles post & during the anime and manga to the pairing of Rinslet 'n' Jenos. 'cause it's cute. This is post-Eden in the anime. (I dunno why, but, I'm kinda nervous about adding this. I've never written an anime/manga fanfic before... Aside from Angel Sanctuary.)

Disclaimer: (Pretend it's on every chapter) It's pretty obvious I own nothing, yes?


Rinslet Walker shook in fear, worry, anger, annoyance and joy as Chronos Number VII, Jenos Hazard, stepped out of Eden with the other Numbers. The worry and fear elevated when she saw him favoring his left leg. "Jenos!" She called, waving for him and everyone else to move towards the main group.

Jenos' slight grimace faded into an almost ridiculously bright smile. He waved with his Excelion hand. "Yo, Rins!" His injured leg forgotten, he jogged over towards the thief before throwing his arms around her tightly.

Blushing, Rinslet stammered out, "W-what are you doing, Je-Jenos!?" Her arms were poised above his, halfway between returning the hug and pushing him away from her. "Let go!"

"But," Jenos began, releasing her to hold her at arms length, "I told you I was gonna give you a hug when I got back." He smirked down at the lavender haired woman who was currently turning ten different shades of red.

She blinked once and forced his arms down after she recovered herself. "Oh, yea... that's right..." Straightening up, Jenos barely caught the wicked gleam in her eyes before she smacked him upside the head. "And I said I was gonna hit you," she paused to cuff him on the head again, "when you got back!" She hit him once more.

"Ow, ow, ow!" Jenos dropped to his rear, covering his head from her assault. "R-Rins-chan!" He shot a pleading glance to his superior and cried, "Sephy-nee! Help!"

To his dismay, Sephiria Arks actually smirked—though, she tried to hide it.

"Stupid, stupid, stupid!" Rinslet swatted him at each word before stopping, haunched over slightly as she drew in air. "You, you... Ah, I can't even describe you!" She slipped down against the helicopter's side and sighed. She paused for a long moment before saying, "...Are you alright?"

Jenos was surprised by her tone—worried and a little regretful, presumably for hitting him—and smiled. "Don't worry, Rins-chan. I only got clipped," he said, gesturing to a small, though deep, cut on his thigh that had stopped bleeding five minutes ago.

Rinslet frowned and reached over to the first aid kit besides Kevin and River, tugging it over to them. She opened it and pulled out some anti-septic and bandages before going to work on Jenos' leg, pointedly ignoring his smile and her blush.
