rain, rain, go away



the rain meme


Ah, rain—the precipitation that the whole world has a love/hate affair with. It waters the garden for free and ruins baseball games. It cools you off in the summer and it causes more ice and sleet to appear in the winter. Sometimes it is lovely and falls at a decent pace for a few hours, other times, it blasts the whole eastern seaboard away.

Poems and songs have been written about it, people have danced in it, others have cursed its entire existence, and still more refuse to go out and drive in it.

Now it’s time to roll some dice and see what the weather will have in store for you today.


directions

1. Comment with your character, series, preferences, etc in the subject.
2. Roll a number between 1-5 with the RGN for an intensity.
3. Roll 1-15 with the RGN for a situation.
4. Reply to other comments and play the scenario out!
5. Don’t catch a cold!


intensity

1. DRIZZLE ☂ It’s not too heavy or too light of a downpour, just enough to wash away stuff in the air, water the ground, and clean up the streets.

2. MONSOON ☂ It’s horrible and awful! Rain is coming down in buckets, no one can get anywhere, the wind is whipping everything about, and now the cable is out.

3. SHOWER ☂ Reminds you of early spring, doesn’t it? A nice shower to make everything all green and smell fresh again. Lovely.

4. FLOOD ☂ While rain is good, it can sometimes be bad. Grab a boat!

5. CATS & DOGS ☂ You’re lucky with this one. It’s not the worst storm in the world, but it’s still pretty heavy. Be careful when driving!


prompts

1. A DARK, STORMY NIGHT ☂ You know all those stories that start off with a stormy night before something goes wrong: a murder, an attack by ninjas, a crime. It is one of the best known clichés in the world, and you’re stuck in the middle of it.

2. HUMIDITY ☂ It’s that time of the year again when the humidity rises and the rain has two options: make it worse or make it go away. Good luck getting the latter.

3. GRAY RAIN OF DEPRESSION ☂ We all know this one. Stuck in the middle of no where, or right after an argument, or something that leads to angst, the rain decides to express someone’s feelings in a physical form, serious or over the top.

4. QUIET MORNING ☂ Nothing to do, nowhere to be… sometimes the rain is a welcomed addition to a quiet day. Gives you an excuse to stay in, curl up in a warm blanket and a book, maybe a loved one or a cup of hot chocolate. With sprinkles.

5. PUDDLES ☂ After it rains, what is the number one thing you have to do? Go put on some rubber boots and splash around of course!

6. SUDDEN STORM ☂ It might have been predicted, but sometimes storms just sweep in and do their thing with little to no warning. Hope you’re not outside.

7. THUNDER & LIGHTNING ☂ Loud, surprising, scary, ominous, comforting, fantastic to watch or listen to… some like thunder and lightning, others not so much. Of course, if this happens before a big confrontation, the universe is telling you something.

8. CAN’T GET WORSE ☂ You did not say that. You did not just say that. How many times does this need to be seen in movies and books before anyone learns?

9. STUCK ☂ No, no, no, no. This cannot be happening. What happened to the ten percent chance of rain? You forgot your umbrella and now you’re stuck in it!

10. RUINED PLANS ☂ You had all these wonderful plans to go outside, have some fun in the sunshine, do some errands, maybe a date… and the weather goes against them.

11. DANCING ☂ Sometimes rain is a cause for celebration, or you just feel like doing something spontaneous. Grab someone to join you and get wet!

12. RAIN BATTLE ☂ The most intense, important battles happen in the rain. Verbal spars, punching someone in the guts; it’s all dramatic and climatic. And no one slips.

13. DATE ☂ Aww, don’t let the weather ruin your date! It can be really romantic, being out in the rain, and it’s always fun to go with the flow.

14. A DAY INSIDE ☂ Sometimes, it’s just better to stay inside and enjoy something simple and easy like board games or catching up on TV shows, or maybe the bills.

15. WILD CARD ☂ Was there something I missed? Did you want to roll again or choose your own adventure? Go for it!

( she's been searching for him — and maybe she should have known that he'd be watching her. should have figured it out from the confusion in his tone halfway through that fight, should have realised it when he didn't let her die, when he not only didn't kill her and didn't complete his mission, but dragged her out of the water —

but she hadn't been sure. now that she's caught sight of him she is, and it takes no thought at all to turn, to follow his figure.

she lost him too many times already; she doesn't want to lose him again.

( she's not quite running, but she is walking very quickly. )

[Too obvious. Too clumsy. They'd wipe him for this, if they knew. If they were still around.

But they're not. It's just him and Rogers and his aching head.

He whirls around to face her as she gets close, looking eye to eye with the woman who claims to be his oldest friend.]


What.

( hydra isn't around anymore — or they are, but their secrets are out in the open now together with every other secret shield ever had and that means they don't control him anymore. they can't, and she'd fight anyone who tried.

she's been searching for him, has gone through this scenario a million times in her head and still doesn't know what to say. there are no speeches she could have prepared.
)

It's — it's good to see you.

( a little helplessly, but it is. she thought he was dead, she mourned him and couldn't even get drunk. )

[He looks away. Looks down, left, anywhere but at her.]

Yeah, well... [He can't finish that sentence and they both know it. He'd thought if he observed her he could remember what it is-- who it is he's meant to be, and regain control of his life at his own pace. But now they're face to face and she's forcing him to be the thing she wants him to be, the man she remembers him as, and he doesn't know if he can do that.]

( she's not trying to force him to be anyone or anything. she remembers him, a version of him he no longer is, but that doesn't mean she expects him to be that man anymore.

too much time has passed, too much has changed — and he's been through much, for all that steph can only guess at the things that have been done to him.
)

You don't have to say anything.

( she doesn't expect him to say that it's good to see her, or that he's missed her. of course, she'd like to hear it, but that isn't the same. ) Just — please don't leave. Do you want a coffee?

( there are plenty of little coffee shops and larger starbucks around. )
