rain, rain, don't go away

[gameofsocks]

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!

-- The very air felt thick. Hot and wet like Madame LeBlanc's root vegetable stew. And as she stood beneath the trading post's leaky awning, Evangeline felt her heart sink at the memory. How long has it been, now, since she'd last thought of Grand Pre? Best not to dwell too long upon the answer. Instead, she watched as the first onslaught of warm late-autumn rain started ripples in the pond.

And she wished she'd traded her last furs for new boots instead of for the tough jerky-meat whose name in this nation was unknown to her, but would have been called pemican in her lands. Mon Dieu, she thought with a sigh. If I get through today -- tomorrow, I'll be stronger.

Evangeline held a hand out from beneath the trading post's awning, and then (gathering her courage into one place) she stepped into the growing puddles. Her rucksack slapped once upon her back -- she adjusted it -- and then was drawn up short by the approach of someone else. Another traveler, already buffeted by the weather's foul moods.

"Ah, excusez-moi, monsier," she huffed and said in a loud and bold sort of voice. Announcing her presence, as well as announcing the growing puddle's existence to his attention.

[Ushahin huddles into his soaked clothes, head bowed against the elements. The wind is whipping right through to his skin, making his already sore bones ache even further. There's no cover in sight. He's wet, miserable, and right now, he'd trade places with just about anyone else in the world. It can't get any worse.

Then it does. There's an ominous rumble of thunder just before the bolts of lightning start crackling through the sky. With a sigh, he looks up resignedly towards the heavens. Just hit him and get it over with already.]

au where the sisters were hospitalized for a bit instead of died?? idek

[untowards]

❰ things have been - okay i guess, since beth and hannah came home. josh sure chilled out a whole lot, and even his sisters haven't seemed too openly grudge-hold-y at jess for a good few weeks now. which is great. because, like, she's tried so many times to figure out how to apologize but every single time it sounds lame. and it'd be fine if she could just apologize to beth, they always hit it off a little better anyway, but every apology she's even tried to offer the both of them has seemed more than a little inadequate in hannah's eyes. not that she ever said so really, it just... i don't know. jess could read it in her face, kind of.

but that's more or less water under the bridge by now, most days. it doesn't mean it's not a little awkward when it's just jess and one of the washington girls in any given wing of the lodge, which is precisely what happened right now, but jess deals pretty well for the most part.

speaking of water under the bridge: jesus hot sauce halloween cookie it's pissing down outside. enough so to actually vaguely capture her interest for a little bit, and jess is sitting sideways on the window bench with one leg tucked under her, a cupped hand around her temple like a visor as she peers out into the rain. ❱

It's seriously, like, some kind of lake out here, ❰ she announces, mostly because so far the both of them have been quiet for entirely too long and it's starting to get to her. it's a worthwhile declaration though, considering if any kind of emergency came up, like if josh got super boozesick again, they'd practically have to leave here by boat.

jess finds herself humming a few thoughtless notes before she picks up the tune aloud under her breath... ❱ Row, row, row your boat... ❰ a flash of lightning has her startling back away from the window a second before she scowls, finishing the tune with a slightly more deliberate, ❱ Gently off a cliff.

❰ --shit.

cliff.

how does she keep doing that??

beth probably saw her flinch a little in realization, but jess doesn't give any time to mention it, instead sweeping up off her seat to announce: ❱ I'm bored. Let's do something.
