The Storm Meme

Here's how it works:

RULES
☂ Leave a comment with your character's name and fandom in the subject header!
☂ When you reply to someone else's thread, RNG for a number between 1 and 8. The number you generate corresponds to the type of "storm" your characters are dealing with. The purpose of these is to generate an idea for a mood or event for the thread. Feel free to be a bit creative with things!
☂ Go from there!

Rainbow After the Storm
you can come out now : [a day-in-the-life] : post-series, pre-series, or AU; everything is calm, normal, and safe.

Snow Storm
baby, it's cold outside : [survival, hurt/comfort] : huddle together for warmth, you've got no choice if you want to survive.

Hail Storm
ouch, that stings! : [physical or emotional confrontation] : tempers flare and words fly, this is the fight that's been building for ages.

Rain Storm
you can stand under my umbrella : [fluff] : a moment of sweet and innocent romance, maybe your very first date!

Dust Storm
lost in a strange land : [adventure] : where are you? how will you ever get home?

Thunder Storm
one one-thousand, two one-thousand : [horror] : terror lurks in the dark; confront your fears or cower together.

Fire Storm
is it hot in here or is it just you? : [smut] : honey, you've never looked so fine.

Calm Before the Storm
player's choice : any other number, or any combination.

Your scene can involve literal weather, but it doesn't have to. That's up to you!

[Fuck the cold, what good has it ever done him.

Currently curled up in a chair in their room at the inn. The inn that they're stuck in because it's a blizzard outside, the finders refuse to go out in it (a smarter decision on their part), and the train is delayed anyway.

And the temperature is dropping quickly (why doesn't this place have a working heater or fireplaces or something). What do.]

ALL OF THE PRACTICE. )o) /needs it ;;

[Huh. Komui probably booked them the dingiest dive in the area to compensate for funding shortages after all that property damage from you an' Allen's last epic brawl. What Lavi would like to know is, why does he have to suffer by association.

Oh well, at least he has an answer to their predicament -- or thinks he does until the Wood Seal fails to do much beyond throwing up a pretty halo of light.]

[ comes bursting into their room in a flurry of wind and snow and ohmygod cold, rubbing furiously at his arms to restore some semblance of feeling ] I-It didn't w-work!

[ He swears there are icicles forming on the tips of his hair. Kicks the door shut behind him. ]

G-Gotta be Innocence at work.

	[Huffs at that and huddles up further.] Then what are we waiting around for? Who cares about the train, we can walk. [Walk miles in the cold and snow, yes. Obviously a good plan.] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	[Shoots Kanda a you've-gotta-be-shittin'-me kind of look from where he's, well, performing this odd little jig by the door to get his blood moving again. It probably looks all kinds of ridiculous, but he's too cold to care.] You can walk, I'm not gonna― [ REMEMBERS WHO HE'S TALKING TO. ] No wait I didn't mean that. Did they say how long we have to wait? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	[It looks very ridiculous, and Kanda is just sitting here watching him. And actually contemplating just getting up and going out there.] A couple days. We'd probably be faster on foot. [No they wouldn't.] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Assuming we don't turn into popsicles within the first half hour, yeah. Those don't walk so well. [ Scuttles over to their busted heater and starts fiddling with it, pausing every now and then to puff on his quivering fingers. ] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	[Nnnn he just wants to get the Innocence and go. Leans back against the chair, watching him mess with the heater.] I don't think that's going to work. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

[Lavi is all for that! ...But maybe later, hopefully when the blizzard's toned it down a bit. Not when they're both freezing and all the enemy needs to do is shove some snow down the backs of their shirts and laugh.]

[Looks up from his fruitless tinkering― And you can practically see those gears in his brain halt, pick a new direction, and start spinning again with all the careless abandon of a guy who isn't that opposed to bad ideas when they're his own.

Kanda's been huddling up in that couch for a good while now.

It must be mighty warm.]

Gotta better idea.

[Oh, ye of little faith. But the leaning away works in Lavi's favour, 'cause that means more space for him on the couch. Not that there's much to begin with, but hey, they'll manage. Squeezes himself riiiiight onto the couch with Kanda, making sure to tuck his arms and knees just right to soak up as much heat as possible and okay, this really isn't too bad. Shame you're not a nice girl, though.]

	[Noooooo get back here you're warm. Grabs hold of Kanda's forearm, what is caution.] S'not like we have many options, yeah ― 'less by 'options' you mean we're counting the Finders. [So, Kanda, would you rather huddle with your not-quite-friend or one of them.] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	[Yuu, quit being so manly.] Maybe not yet, but it's gonna get even colder in a couple... [squints out the grimy window at the already darkening sky outside] ...minutes. We gotta stay warm somehow to make it through the night. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

What if he comes back to a frostbitten body in the morning outside.] Bet they're too busy to make room for me. C'mon Yuu, you aren't made of stone, yanno. You're gonna need this too.
