caught in the rain

caught in the rain

it started out quietly, and then, quite suddenly, you're caught in a storm. Time to find cover. Nothing much to do but to wait it out.

Scenarios listed below for those who want 'em.

i WHERE:
001 PLAYGROUND - Well, you can try to hide under the slide or maybe in the jungle gym... at least you're some place fun?
002 PARK - Always happens, caught outside trying to take advantage of the weather... and it ends up pulling a fast one on you.
003 STORE FRONT - Better hope they have an awning you can take advantage of
004 THE BEACH - Not exactly the best place to be during a rainstorm, however it is possible to get caught in a sudden storm
005 WILD CARD - Anyway you want it


ii HOW:
001 TREE - Not the best cover, but it'll have to do, stay close to the roots and you won't get too wet.
002 UMBRELLA - Most conventional... Kinda boring. But it works.
003 NEWSPAPER - Not permanent, but it'll have to do. Good luck
004 BAG - Well... y'gotta do what you gotta do.
005 NONE - You know what. You're a rebel. You don't need cover. Screw convention
006 WILD CARD - that's the way you need it


iii WHY:
001 REJECTED - Welp. Rejection sucks. And no one will see you crying in the rain.
002 WAITING - For the bus? For someone else? For some revelation? What are you waiting for.
003 MELANCHOLY - Sometimes the best place to feel a bit down is out in the rain.
004 HAPPINESS - Is everything going your way? Are you singing a refrain while walking down the lane? Just singin. Singin' in the rain.
005 ANGER - WELL YOU KNOW WHAT. SCREW YOU TOO RAIN.
006 WILD CARD - Anyway you want it.

Rumpelstiltskin/Mr. Gold | Once Upon a Time

The storm had blown in almost without warning. Belle had been in the stacks when the clouds rolled in, and though the sky was leaden grey as she locked the library's doors, she'd been certain she'd have enough time to make it to Granny's before the rain really started. And once there, she'd be able to wait it out - and would remember this time to get an umbrella before the next rainfall.

Of course, she'd misjudged either the distance or the weather, and is now caught halfway there in a sudden downpour, with only a newspaper already halfway to sodden disintegration between herself and the elements. At the back of her mind lurks amused frustration - the heroes in her books rarely have to deal with the indignities of early summer coastal weather - but most of her is focused on finding somewhere to duck into before the newspaper completely gives way.

as the mun makes a very un-Rumpel-like squeak...

One of the many benefits of being together with the Dark One: he actually saw this coming, and in the interests of playing the rescuer and catching her in a moment where he could make her happy, he's meeting her halfway to the house. He might have made it sooner, but he doesn't really walk very fast. Still, better a little late than never, and he comes out of seeming nowhere at her side with an umbrella open to take the place of that poor newspaper.

"Did we forget something at home, dearie?" he asks dryly-- in more ways than one, since he's been using said umbrella during his trek out to meet her-- but affectionately.
