let there be rain
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.

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 RNG for an intensity.
3. Roll another number from 1-15 with the RNG 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!
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.

no subject
Yeah.
[ He grunts, and waits for Hinata's turn. ]
no subject
Long and brown!
[ He thinks he's smart but it's pretty obvious.]
no subject
Long and brown. Long and brown. Long and brown...
Tobio squints. ]
That bench?
no subject
Dang it! Yeah, it's the bench... [Hinata sighs, pouting for a second- but what's fair is fair.]
One - one!
[He is a sore loser, he wants to make Kageyama not be able to guess! And he has an idea... ]
no subject
Easy.
[ He comments, before looking around for something to give Hinata to guess next. ]
I see something... small and black.
no subject
...trashcan?
[ There's one right across the street? But he's still looking around, he's not sure about this one.]
no subject
No, it's that small bug over there.
[ He points at the little black insect that's hanging on the inner panel of the bus stop they're stuck in. Tobio had successfully used the tactic of not staring directly at the thing he was describing. ]
Looks like I win.
no subject
[Or at least it should be! There's no way anyone would ever notice a little bug! Now he's salty a little because Kageyama found a loophole. He's huffing and pouting.
It takes a few moments for it to disperse but the game goes on! If Kageyama can "cheat" then so can Hinata. With crossed arms, he announces.]
I see something tall and pretty!
[Take that, Bakageyama!]
no subject
Tall and pretty. Well, there's only one thing he can think of, although it doesn't exactly look pretty right now with the gloomy weather... ]
The cherry blossom tree?
no subject
[He almost cheers at the success but then remembers what the answer is. And blushes. Smiles.
And looks away, with hands behind his head, kicking idly at the asphalth, heel digging at it nervously.]
It's you.
no subject
It's... him? Like, yeah, Tobio is tall but. Does Hinata really think he's pretty?
A blush swaths over his cheeks as he turns his gaze the other way, focusing on a random spot on the ground and hoping to hide how red he's getting. ]
That's unfair...
[ He mumbles, lips positioned in a frown as he tries to fight the pleased smile trying to emerge and expose how he truly feels. ]
no subject
Especially about that cheatsy move in the game.]
Using something like a bug is unfair too, [he sticks his tongue out at him briefly, playfully, but then smiles, and glances away- he's equally red in face, because this is the first time he dared to say these things.]
I mean it. Really.
no subject
I think you’re pretty, too.
[ He responds in a mumble, hopefully loud enough to be heard through the heavy storm surrounding them. ]
