[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.]

[alephbet]

You're a lifesaver. Thank you, April. I owe you one.

[She's so cool.]

[technologic]

It's nothing, really. I'm just glad to help.

[She tilts her head in thought for a moment, before shrugging her coat off and handing it to him.] This should fit you, since it's massive on me. You can use this to protect your terminal from the rain.

[alephbet]

Are you sure? I know that's important to you...

[technologic]

And I know you'll take care of it. And it's pretty durable, so it should be fine. If you want, you can keep it until I make a sort of cover for your terminal?

[alephbet]

Thank you. [He takes the coat and carefully puts it on.] Hopefully the weather won't last too long.

[you're going to wish you hadn't said that Aleph]

[technologic]

[And then suddenly week of seasons oops.] Hopefully not. I don't mind the rain, but it's a pain to use my electricity powers in.

[Both figuratively and literally sob]

[alephbet]

I don't know how rain is falling indoors in the first place...

[technologic]

It's the Tower. The day it follows any sort of natural law will be the day Jason decides to willingly wear a dress and act like the nicest person ever. [She reaches up to wring water out of her hair, huffing slightly when it goes all poofy.]

[alephbet]

That would be hilarious. Should we request that?

[technologic]

[April giggles and nods.] Sounds like fun. And hey, Jason should be happy that we won't be requesting for him to get punched in the face like people did before.

[alephbet]

...he might consider this to be worse.

[technologic]

... That is very true. [She stops and thinks about it for a moment.] But it'll be way funnier for us.

[alephbet]

Should we really do it?

[technologic]

... Prooobably not. Last time I heard that people sent in a request for something to be done to Jason, he... didn't respond well.

But hey, at least we can laugh over the idea.

[alephbet]

I'd draw it if I knew how to draw, but you'd end up with stick-Jason.

[technologic]

[April giggles again, and gives him a hum in agreement.] Hehe, same here. I suck at drawing, so you would just end up with a dress that has an angry face.

[alephbet]

It's not as fun if it doesn't at least look like him.

[technologic]

I'll do my best to make it look like an angry Jason face, don't worry.

[alephbet]

I'm sure you can do it.

[technologic]

I will do my best! [And the rain starts to fall down harder, so April moves to hide under the tree a bit more.] ... Um, you don't mind if I hide out here with you for a while, right?

[alephbet]

Not at all. Take as long as you want, I know I'm not going anywhere. [He hides the terminal under her coat.]

[technologic]

O-okay, thanks. [Pause. And then she moves to cuddle up against his side. The rain is kinda cold and he's warm.]

[alephbet]

[Cuddling sounds good, he'll do that. She's warm too.]

[technologic]

[She hums contently when he cuddles back, and she snuggles close.] ... I really hope this rain stops soon, or at least lightens up. I lost count how many times I nearly slipped on the stairs.

[alephbet]

The elevators aren't working either... The stairs are the best bet.
