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 singing. Singin' in the rain.
005 ANGER - WELL YOU KNOW WHAT. SCREW YOU TOO, RAIN.
006 WILD CARD - Anyway you want it.

( A grump beside Logan, peeking from the sudden, makeshift protection of her bright yellow jacket. Behind them, the theater glowed neon in the early evening, in-and-out crowds hustling. Nothing against you, rain, but she was wearing her new suede boots. )

I'm lodging a formal complaint. That weatherman has let me down for the last time.

[Go to the beach, her mom had said. Go get some fresh air and cool your head like it was utterly unreasonable to be upset that she couldn't so much as step foot out off the door without a black-suited entourage. Even now she was pretty sure they were lurking around somewhere, probably ordered to make it seem like she was by herself as though that was the same as actually being by herself.

Not that she didn't understand. Of course her mom would worry so much after both she and her brother were kidnapped twice now. But it didn't stop Clover from feeling any less trapped by her current situation than she did.

And then, just to cap it all off, her relaxing day at the beach turned into standing in the middle of a deluge. And all she had for cover was her jacket, which she was currently using as a make-shift umbrella which, for how heavily it was raining, simply meant she was getting thoroughly drenched instead of only mostly.

Little reason then, at least to her mind, not to stomp across the beach kicking at sand and rocks and whatever else got in her way because if she was going to have to deal with her mother and the hired stalkers after this, she might as well get the worst of her temper out now.

Even if that meant her foot connecting with another person along the way. Not like she could really see where she was going right now anyway.]

[Bad impulse o'clock ahoy.]

[ It wasn't raining when Mordred went into the restaurant, but it sure is by the time she comes out five courses later. Too stubborn to go into spirit form, she lets the rain drip down over her instead, looking like a wet cat as she stalks through the streets.

Of course, she's not really paying attention to where she's going. Rounding a corner, she literally bumps right into Caules, and stares at him suspiciously. ]

... Glasses? [ Hope he likes his new nickname. ] What the hell are you doing out here?
