[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.]

[Tohko managed a smile and nodded.]

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

[heavenscorpse]

We should! It's important that everyone stays warm.

[V/V picks a blanket off of her and drapes it over Tohko's shoulders.]

[tohko_amano]

[Tohko wrapped the blanket around her, making sure that it didn't slide off.]

Thank you. And we should! I'm sure it would be fun..and help people stay alive. The network is down, but we could make a couple of posters.

[heavenscorpse]

I could draw pictures!

[She's very excited.]

[tohko_amano]

[Tohko's smile grew a little larger at that. V/V was always excited by these things. Not that Tohko could blame her.]

And I could help you! I'm not that good at drawing though.

[heavenscorpse]

Neither am I. It's okay as long as we can get the message across.

[tohko_amano]

That's true! As long as we can get a lot of people to come again, like last time, we should be fine!

[Tohko looks pretty excited for a moment..before she sneezes over her shoulder, away from V/V.]

Sorry..excuse me.

[heavenscorpse]

[She giggles.] It's okay to sneeze.

[tohko_amano]

Oh..I know it is. It's just polite to say it. That way, the other person might not be bothered if you accidentally hit them.

[heavenscorpse]

Oh, I didn't know that. Thank you for teaching me.

[tohko_amano]

Oh, you're welcome! I'm always happy to teach people things!

However..where are we going to get paper and markers? All my books and my pen were destroyed by the monsoon.

[heavenscorpse]

That's a good point... We can't do anything with the books in the library, they're too nice. -I hope they're all okay.

[tohko_amano]

They took quite the beating, but I think they'll be alright when this whole mess is over. Maybe there's some paper in the workshop though..or maybe we could stitch the message on some fabric.

[heavenscorpse]

We could do it on the request forms, maybe?

[tohko_amano]

Oh, that's true! We could write on the back of them! No one would notice! I'm sure the workshop probably has some pens..and if not, we'll use berries as ink and try to work with that.

[heavenscorpse]

I wouldn't have thought of that! You're really smart.

[tohko_amano]

Well..I try to be. Before pens with ink were made, people used inkwells and quills to write, so we can at least try to make something similar to that.

I'm not sure what we'll use in place of quills though.

[heavenscorpse]

I could pick off a feather or two.

[tohko_amano]

[And Tohko suddenly remembered that V/V has wings.]

Oh..I wouldn't want you to do that! Wouldn't that hurt?

[heavenscorpse]

It might sting a little, but they're pretty convenient. They're right there.

[tohko_amano]

That's true..but still..I wouldn't want to take an option that could hurt you if we couldn't. Maybe we could use sticks or something.

[heavenscorpse]

I bet that would work too!

[tohko_amano]

Hopefully it would! Of course, we might find other tools-like paintbrushes or something-that haven't been destroyed later on, but sticks might work.

I suppose we should work quickly, or everyone will freeze. Which do you want to do, gather berries and brushes or papers?

[heavenscorpse]

I'll get the papers, you can get the other parts.

[tohko_amano]

Alright then! I'll go and grab them then. I'll meet you back here when I'm done.

[Still tightly holding onto the blanket, Tohko walked through the hallway and up the stairs. Normally, she would have ran, but she had to walk-it was a good way to conserve energy and heat. She stopped in the cafeteria to grab a bowl before moving onwards to the sixth floor. Seeing all the snow made her doubt that she would find any berries at all..but she had to try. If she couldn't, then she would see if any of the cafeteria's food would work.

In the meantime, she started gathering up small, strong sticks that they could use.]
