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 RNG for an intensity.
3. Roll 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!

[Can I interest you? Preference for them not actively fighting each other, but enemies-to-allies/friends(?) is always fun. AUing from any canonpoint is of interest to me, whether Loki thinks he killed Phil but TAHITI happened, or Loki never faced off with him at all, or something even further diverged from canon.

I am only dimly familiar with AoS after S1, but I can Google as needed.]

[ The rain falls heavy and pervasive, leading rise to fog on the horizon. It's awful enough that the city felt that it was warranted to have a warning for the strong weather and flooding -- which the streets are just barely containing the deluge from spilling over onto the sidewalk. There's already damage to plant life and it's definitely unpleasant to deal with and be outside while the it pours on down.

Naturally, Jill is out working with Abbacchio in this. They're chasing down an heirloom thief (allegedly) that happened to also be at a murder scene, at least based on the information they've managed to dig up from the evidence at the crime scene. Jill happens to be on the run, rushing the street with nothing other than a baseball cap and a hooded sweatshirt pulled over it to protect her from the elements. The suspect is more than a block ahead, pulling tricks over vehicles and down alleyways; the fog and weight of the rain make it hard to see too far ahead of her, but she's managing to keep up with him well enough for the moment.

She almost doesn't spot Gumshoe in the distance and just about nearly trudges past him, puddles splashing high as she moves at a speed that burns her chest. She juts out an arm and points to the perp as she tries to make her voice hit a volume he can hear.
]

Dick! Stop that man! [ He's down the street from him, about to twist into an alley nearly a block ahead. She doesn't think he can necessarily catch up better, but if he's on her side -- and on the clock -- she might have a better chance of catching the man. Jill is nearly in front of her partner at this point, not taking pause in her step. She wipes at her face, as if it helps her voice be made out easier among the inclement weather. ] Come with me, I'll explain along the way!

-and you won't believe what happened after that, Mako-chan. Well-

[Adachi has to amend that.] Maybe you would. [Everyone knew that Date was the weird shit magnet on the force, after all.] This guy...this guy who I never saw in my life, he goes and turns to the bartender and says, "You're alive." And I, idiot that I am - you know it, I know it - say the first thing that comes to mind.

[A moment, letting Date imagine it, and then-]

"I thought you said it was Survive 'cause of the drink list, not because you didn't die." And then he threw everyone else out. Which is bad 'cause that's where all my stuff is, futon included.

[And that's why he's bothering Date in shit weather, probably at a bar, maybe at New Serena, which also gives Adachi an excuse to not head back because last he saw, things were getting awkward.]
