caught in the rain

CAUGHT IN THE RAIN MEME

It started out quietly, and then, quite suddenly, you're caught in a storm with an endless downpour. Time to quickly find cover! Nothing much to do but to wait it out. Where is the rain happening? How are you coping? Why are you out when it hits?

RULES
• Leave a comment with your character's name and fandom.
RNG for a number between 1-10 to get your scenario. Mix and match!
• Have fun!
SCENARIOS
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 BEACH |
Not exactly the best place to be during a rainstorm, however it is possible to get caught in a sudden storm.
005 FOREST | Mud, bugs and all the rambler's paths are washed away so you don't know how to get out.
006 SKY |
On a plane? A pegasus? You were there when the first drop fell.
007 EMPTY CITY |
Maybe it was a zombie apocalypse or WW3. It's safer outside when all the nasties take refuge indoors.
008 AT SEA |
Nothing is worse than an unexpected freak storm here. Except sea monsters.
009 TEMPLE |
It's beautiful, but leaky.
010 WILD CARD |
Your call.


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 SHIRT |
Well... y'gotta do what you gotta do.
005 MAGIC |
Wave that wand or chant a spell.
006 CARDBOARD | Out of a dumpster. Nice.
007 LEAVES |
Not under a tree: just one really huge leaf.
008 CAVE |
Not very deep, but it keeps off the worst.
009 NONE |
You don't need cover, screw convention.
010 WILD CARD |
Your call.


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 ACCEPTANCE | You had to be here anyway, it wasn't a choice.
007 SCIENCE |
Everyone else is inside but you've got work to do.
008 ACCIDENTAL |
Lost track of time? Forgot your coat? Oops. Now you look like a wet rat.
009 KISSING |
They kissed you. How are you supposed to leave them alone out here after that?
010 WILD CARD |
Your call.

[Though heroic spirits don't have to worry about catching colds or such, being drenched can still be quite miserable. Luckily the futuristic material that makes up Archer's coat is waterproof, so only his head and face are at the mercy of the elements.

He runs a hand through his hair, keeping it slicked back so it doesn't default to his... younger self's hairstyle.]


Perhaps you should return and watch over the others. There's no point in you being out here.

[It's a pleasant park hidden in the bustling streets of Fuyuki. Small yet tidy. At some point during their excursion rain began to fall but - ever the insightful one - Sherlock had brought along an umbrella. He thought Astolfo might need it when they meet up again, and it turns out that he was correct.]

Did you enjoy yourself, Rider?

[WHEEZE. With breathless mutterings of being late, Makoto was having the ultimate race with Father Time and making a mad dash down a suspiciously not-so-crowded shopping district. Another job at the Mid-Afternoon with a Prince program was scheduled for a few hours from now, and she ended up oversleeping! And to make matters worse, missing the train too! Therefore, the most logical alternative, instead of waiting for the next train or hailing a taxi like a normal person, was to run the whole ten kilometers to the studio. At least, for a musclehead like Makoto, it is.

Unfortunately, due to the mix of panic and rush while getting ready, Makoto had neglected to notice the weather forecast, and even manage to be oblivious to the gradually darkening skies during her impromptu half-marathon. So when the storm finally came down pouring, Makoto was fully unprepared for it. After eventually accepting that a baseball cap and sheer willpower wasn't adequate protection from the torrential wrath of nature, she threw her waterlogged self at the nearest cover she could find: underneath the awning of a convenience store.

Maybe she should call the Producer and let him know what was the hold up. Makoto really felt bad about being a no-show for an important job like this, but with this sort of situation, he and the staff would understand, right? Best case scenario, they figure out a way to get her over there. Letting out a weary sigh, she dug into the pocket of her jacket to fetch her phone, and was confused when the only thing she could feel was her wallet and keys.]


Eh?

[Makoto's "eh"s raised in both length and volume as she gave herself a pat down, in hopes that she merely put her phone in another pocket. When her efforts proved futile, she let her predicament sink in for a moment, before clutching her head and reeling back to scream into the sky.]

Gyaaaaahhhh! Not just an umbrella, I forgot my phone too?! DAMMIIIIIIIIIIIIIT....!!

[A thunder crash conveniently rings above at the same time Makoto lets out her last outburst, as if to emphasize her overly-dramatic despair.]
