Looks like the weather forecast was right; it's absolutely pouring! And most people are complaining about the sudden downpour.

But forget those negative nellies! Just post a comment with your series name and character name as usual, as well as any other notes you wish to add, then pick a prompt using the 
RNG and get started!
 

1. OMG RAIN!!!

Rain is just the BEST THING EVER, RIGHT?! Well, that's what you think and you're determined to have a good time. Either going for a walk or splashing through puddles or even just sitting around and getting wet, you're going to milk every second of this rain and drag your friends along for the ride.

2. FUCK YOU, RAIN.

Oh god, it's raining. This just completely ruins your day. Maybe you were planning to go shopping but the roads are still flooded up, or because the school closed thanks to the storm, you need to hire a last minute babysitter for your kids. Whatever the reason for it, you're not pleased about this rain and you don't care what anyone else thinks.

3. RAIN SIEGE

Oh lord, it looks like you're stuck inside. It's raining too hard for you to even think of leaving! Will you make a daring escape in a ridiculous raincoat or will you just give up and watch TV? But what if you run out of snacks? Or the TV reception dies?!

4. A WALK IN THE RAIN

Nothing like the sound of rain beating against your umbrella, right? You don't really care either way about the chaos and even though it's chilly, the one thing you want to do today is head out for a walk in the rain and maybe grab a hot chocolate on the way back.

5. WILDCARD

Either combine any one of the above prompts or come up with your own scenario!

Terra nodded at her companion and moved slowly towards the fire. Her feet ached after walking for days and the heat of the fire was a small comfort.

It had taken her days to get out of the city safely then days more to find her way here. The forest was new territory to her and it hadn't taken long to find herself lost and trapped in the rain. She was lucky to come across this tent and its in inhabitant.

She placed her shaking hands over the heat of the fire hoping to let the warm flames penetrate the cold. "Thank you." Her voice seemed small even to her.

(OOC: Sorry the response took so long. My internet had died >.>)

"Think nothing of it." He smiled faintly from his side of the bonfire. "'Tis a traveler's duty to aid those on the road."

Unlike Terra, he seemed quite prepared for this journey. His clothing was sturdy, thick cloth reinforced by leather to keep him warm and well-protected. It would never win a fashion contest in any city - too dark and plain for that - but it served its wearer in a way no noble's fancy shirt ever would.

The same stood for the rest of his belongings, such as the large backpack in the corner and the heavy-looking sheath resting next to it. This was someone who spent his life on the road and doubtfully cared for living any other way.

"Although you're quite a ways from well-traveled ones. Exploring, I take it?"

[OOC: Think nothing of it! I am quite a tortoise tag-wise and can backtag into forever, so don't hesitate to make me wait. ♥]

Terra pulled of her shoes letting her feet get closer to the fire. Even in its warmth she felt very cold. "I'm lost"

She was tired and hurt but didn't want to show her weakness. She still had a long way to go. She pulled her wet cloak a little closer but it did little to stop her shivers. It had started raining a while before she found the shelter.

"Do you have a map?"

"Right here." Two fingers tapped on the side of his head. Not the most useful place for someone other than him, perhaps, but then he doesn't often have company on his journeys.

"Nevermind that. You aren't going to be reaching anyplace if you catch a cold out here." He slipped away from the bonfire and toward the backpack, hands working to undo the knots on one of pockets. "Get rid of that cloak. No cover is better than soaked cover." Pause. That came out a tad wrong. "I'll find you something better."

Terra nodded and slowly took off her cloak revealing a small red dress with a intricately woven pattern around its top and bottom. She wore gloves that went from her wrist to her elbows and not much else. She laid the cloak down next to the fire hoping it could dry.

"I'm sorry for the inconvenience." Her arms wrapped around her front as she brought her knees closer to her chest. She hoped it was safe to stay here. Her eyes wandered to the rain outside as sad thoughts filled her mind.

"There isn't one." It was hard to explain how he felt about having companions on the road because, if one was absolutely honest, a large group was a burden out here. It was a kind of burden that put a smile on his face though, more than making up for the need to plan ahead for more than himself.

He finally moved away from the backpack, a winter cloak flung over his shoulder. It would have been too warm and heavy to wear this morning, but the weather changed that.

"Now..." His hand gently tapped on her shoulder. "Try to not make it rain inside, hm?"
greenmagick: (Smile)

A slight smile touched Terra's lips as he tapped her shoulder. "I'll try. Where should I put my cloak?"

Her voice softened a little now that the fire was heating her through. It was relaxing even being mostly wet and stuck in an unknown place with an unknown person. She gently put her hand near the fire feeling its warmth. The fire swayed slightly as she moved her hand back and forth.

She realized to late what she had done and quickly pulled her hand back.

halfremembered: (A peaceful conversation.)

"Close to the fire if you want it to dry sooner." A risky proposition on most days, but Aether took extreme care to secure the bonfire pit on rainy days. The last thing he needed was for the ground to shift from rain, sending sparks to scatter onto the blankets.

He made his way through the tent surprisingly quickly and quietly for someone creeping close to the ground, as if his body was trained for this kind of mobility. The heavy cloak was pulled off his shoulder and gently wrapped around Terra, its sturdiness and warmth making the cool air a little more bearable.

"Anything else? This rain won't be ending anytime soon, might as well make yourself comfortable."

Terra was happy for the warmth. Her cheeks turned to a rosey pink as she watched the fire dance.

"Thats fine. Thank you." Terra looked around the shelter suddenly curious about her savior.

She scoots around the fire a little getting more comfortable. Terra then looked at him. "You like traveling? where have you been?"

[OOC: It's alright! Take as long as you need /hugs RL comes first. Or if you ever wanna start something else lol.]

"A lot of places." With his attention no longer occupied, Aether seemed to quickly deflate. He flopped onto the blankets, his steel-blue hair fanning out into a feathered halo, and took a deep breath. Although tall and muscular, he moved in a manner that kept his weight from overtaking his movements. Everything was balanced and calculated in a manner that reflected not a drifter, but rather someone experienced at using his body.

A quick look through the tent revealed to be true. Tucked to the side of the heavy bag, were a crossbow and a sheathed sword. Both were heavy military weapons, the sword's sheath covered in numerous scratches that suggested many years of use. Notably, the guard on the sword's hilt looked cracked in the place where such a weapon would normally house the Imperial crest, as if something was violently torn from it.

But as for Aether, he didn't seem all that concerned with her curiosity. He splayed out on the blankets like a stray cat that just found himself a temporary home, eyes focused on the dancing fire in front of him.

"One day, I started walking and never looked back. I've been traveling since."

[OOC: Thank you for understanding. <3 And sure, feel free to PM me if you'd like another thread elsewhere. My muselist is 90% female and I mostly visit smut memes these days, but I'm sure we can find something interesting regardless!]

Terra is starting to have a clear vision in her mind about her companion and he seems interesting compared to her. She couldn't remember everything about her past. She just had to keep running from her keeper.

She suddenly felt self conscience and pulls her feet closer to her. Her magic was the source of her troubles and she needed to keep it a secret. Her mind felt overloaded by her thoughts and she realized her silence might be taken as an insult.

"Um... is it alright if I sleep here? Until the rain passes anyway?" He seemed comfortable here but with the cold and her aching feet Terra just wanted to lay down and rest.


[OOC: lol, sounds good. I have a few male muses. I want to write more smut but I get super self conscious with how I write. Some people are just so good at it and then I flail in it's general direction >.< But yeah I will keep my eyes open. If you find something else let me know too :D http://namiami.dreamwidth.org/857.html ~~ Current Muselist <3 and I am game with slow tags lol.]

The wanderer, on the other hand, found his company to be infinitely interesting. A lone woman, traveling this far off the beaten path because she was apparently lost. She seemed a little hesitant. Hiding something? Or simply shy? All the questions born out of curiosity and left in the back of his mind, where he would abandon them until answers naturally came his way.

Fleeting encounters on the road, traded smiles and half-faded memories. That was the way Aether liked people.

"You can stay here as long as you want." He put on the most comforting smile he could manage while splayed out in that lazy pose. "Don't worry. Nothing will disturb your sleep with that downpour outside."

Terra noticeably relaxed. "I guess your right." A small hint of a smile touched her lips. She hasn't been able to just relax in a long time.

She let herself fall over so that she was curled up on the ground but still next to the fire. She wasn't sleepy but she was tired of running.
