[Open] too many cooks

[alephbet]

Characters: Catch-all post for Mini's characters (Aleph, Katsuya Suou, Zett Takajo, V/V, Ryuunosuke Uryuu) and you!
Setting: Arouund the tower.
Format: Starting with action brackets, will match anything.
Summary: The weather keeps changing and it's a jerk :|
Warnings: Ryuunosuke's threads with Kariya and Waverhave blood, violence, mutilation, and death.

[Spring, Aleph, meadow]
[Hiding under a tree, Aleph tries to dry out his Arm Terminal, which is starting to go on the fritz. His demons are out and surrounding him - too dangerous to keep them in a malfunctioning device.]

It's no good...

[He sighs and leans against the tree as the rain pours around them.]

[Spring, Katsuya Suou, sauna]
[Katsuya slides his family photos inside the sauna locker. They're already mostly soaked, but he can't bear to throw them out yet. Maybe they'll dry out and be salvageable?

That done, he groans and paces the floor.]

[Summer, Zett Takajo, space projection floor]
[Zett isn't too concerned about lightning, it being his natural element...

And it looks really cool on this floor.]

Maybe I should try the caverns next!

[Autumn, Ryuunosuke Uryuu, staircase]
[Whoopsy-daisy! Ryuunosuke just slipped on a pile of leaves and fell onto the floor on his butt.]

Owww...

[How dangerous this is depends on the particular floor he just fell onto.]

[Winter, V/V, dorm floors]
[V/V has had a brilliant idea.

See, there are lots of unoccupied rooms on the fifth floor, right? And they have four beds apiece, and those beds have blankets. So she goes from room to room, gathering blankets and piling them all together.

Other people may see her as a giant pile of blankets walking around on its own.]

Comments

Ryuunosuke naturally

[nonacquiescent]

[And who was watching from the top of said staircase? That's right, Waver. As he watches someone falling, he nearly goes to try to help...but then he sees who it is, and can't manage to do much but stand where he is and laugh, covering his mouth in hopes that Ryuunosuke won't see.]

[kindofademon]

Y'know when the serial killer is less of a jerk than you, that says something?

[He picks himself up and wipes some leaves off his behind.]

[nonacquiescent]

It's not like I'd laugh at anyone else. Only you. Because you're a serial killer.

[kindofademon]

Still makes you a jerk, sorry man.

V/V

[tohko_amano]

[As Tohko walked around, trying to get warm, even with her cloak, she noticed a large pile of blankets walking around. As strange as that looked, there was only one person Tohko could think of that would do that. Smiling, she walked up to the pile and tapped on it.]

V/V? Is that you?

[V/V may notice something odd: Tohko only has one very thick braid right now instead of two thin ones.]

[heavenscorpse]

[The pile shuffles and V/V pokes her head out.]

Hi, Tohko. Do you want some?

[tohko_amano]

[Tohko managed a smile and nodded.]

If it's no trouble. I guess we should try organizing another cuddlepile to warm up again.

Aleph

[technologic]

What's wrong? [And April doesn't really seem to mind the rain, though she notices Aleph with his demons out.]

[alephbet]

[He looks up and seems a lot more relieved at her presence.]

My Arm Terminal - it doesn't work well with water damage. I don't know how to fix it.

[technologic]

[Blink, and then she walks over to him.] Can I see it?

Ryuunosuke Uryuu

[culbutiri]

[Or which particular person you fell into. Nesir was not in a good mood. First the rain, then the heat, there had been fire monsters for darks sake, and now leaves everywhere.

Oh and now someone was falling on her. She scrambled up, drawing a dagger.] You do be watching where you do be going!

[The fact that it probably wasn't his fault at all didn't get past the haze of anger.]

[kindofademon]

Sorry! [He gets up quickly, keeping his hands in front of him.] It was totally an accident.

[culbutiri]

[Nesir glared at him] Well you should have been more careful, I might have been thinking you were a monster and been stabbing you.

[She puts the dagger back though.]

V/V

[princeofjunes]

[Once upon his time, Yosuke thought his winter uniform was actually pretty good for dealing with the cold weather. He is now painfully aware of just how wrong he was about that. He's also exhausted and hungry as hell, but it's really hard for him to focus on which one sucks the most and have just one thing to complain about as he wanders the dorms aimlessly]

[And then he sees a giant pile of blankets wandering and stands there staring for a few moments, utterly bewildered]

What... what the hell?

[heavenscorpse]

[Suddenly a blond head of hair pokes out of the blankets, followed by a face.]

Hi Yosuke. [She beams.] I'm helping get blankets for everybody.

[princeofjunes]

[Despite being tired and hungry, his face manages to brighten instantly on the sight of his girlfriend]

Oh hey, good idea! Here, let me give you a hand so you're not a walking blanket.

Ryuunosuke

[vermicompost]

[As Ryuunosuke falls, Kariya happens upon the scene. He doesn't speak yet, but looks down at the other coldly.]

[kindofademon]

[Ryuunosuke tries to scramble up, but it's just hard to get a footing.]

Ooooi. A little help here?

[vermicompost]

[Kariya continues to glare, coldly.]

Why would I help you?

Ryuunosuke, Floor 15 (is picking the floor okay?)

[savarin]

[Robot repair is surprisingly tricky work. Red's got some knowledge of machines, but his sister usually did all the repairs. Maybe he should have listened more when she was trying to explain things?]

[Oh, sounds like someone else is having problems with the leaves. Red sets down the tools he was using, wading over to the staircase.]

Hey, you okay over there? Need a paw?

fine by me!

[kindofademon]

Oof... Yeah, some help would be nice.

[He thinks he landed on a bolt or something, ow.]

/o/

[savarin]

[It wouldn't be a surprise. There's lots of stuff hidden under those leaves, almost including Red himself. Being short is suffering; still, he manages to help the poor lad to his feet, kicking away whatever was under there.]

There, up ya go. Anythin' hurt too bad?

[What a nice dog.]

F62: Ryuunosuke

[canofworms]

[Good job, little murdergeek! Looks like it's going to be a beach episode, since you just splashed down in the shallows near the sand.

At least it's not spring, because you'd probably already be swimming by now. Kariya, meanwhile, has become pretty cautious after two very short, terribly long seasons and stopped his steps at the top of the stairwell you just flopped off.]

... Ah.

[You're looking very familiar, if a little difficult to place. You must be a Grail War participant, because those are the people most engraved in his memory. But who could you be...?]

[kindofademon]

[Clearly nobody you should worry about! Ryuunosuke gets to his feet and wipes off his butt.]

Man, these were my good pants... Ah? Are you looking at me, mister?

[canofworms]

There isn't anyone else on this floor, is there?

[He's a little amused, but also a little wary -- both of the strangely familiar-looking boy and the floor itself, which looks a little too innocuous to be true. He does step off the staircase now, though, approaching a little.

A closer look makes the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end a little more, but that doesn't actually tell him anything. There's magic here, certainly. Most magi are a little bit spooky, let's say.]

The weather isn't bad -- you could probably dry those out, if the floor lets you.

[No obvious monsters clearly means you should do your laundry here.]
