#mephrin

I enjoyed getting to see more serious moments between Rin and Mephisto in the time travel arc, where Rin isn't pretending that everything's fine and Mephisto isn't being facetious and evasive. I think he respects Rin and many of the people from the past enough to treat the situation with the sobriety it deserves and he has never once struck me as someone who can't read the room (doesn't always stop him from choosing not to care however). He's privy to a lot of Rin's deeply personal thoughts and feelings during this journey, partially due to prior spying but also because Rin directly tells him how he feels - about Yuri, Shiro, Satan, and himself.
