[Sitting underneath a patio that she found in the park, Rin was watching the rain pour down. She always find the rain quite peaceful at times, so just watching nature do her job is interesting and seeing it up close instead of dreaming about it. In her lap, wrapped in her green sash that she wears on her arms, there was a small monkey that was making some sounds. Rin finally got herself a pet after figuring out everything to take care of the small creature. She decided to soothe it with a song. Would someone hear her?]

( The falling rain outside my window... )

(ooc: She is singing Secret Crush. Action open for those in the park or in Sector 4. And everyone, meet her cute monkey? 8))

[Deidara is standing out in the rain somewhere in sector 5, just chuckling a little. His hands are held palms upward, the mouths open and catching the artificial rain on their tongues.]

W...What's with all the wet stuff falling down from above and the big sharp lights and the loud crashing BOOM sounds outside?! What...What's happening? Nana doesn't know what's going on!

What is this!? A restraint!? Why, I can’t even prepare properly with this barbaric thing around my leg! A court mage has to look good, proper, and wonderful! I hate this place! [Despite it all, cackles like a madman. Suddenly he has become aware that this thing is recording him. Well, hello, he’ll be picking you up now and staring into the video screen.]

Hello!? Is this Marina Asylum!? Let me introduce you to your new Lord and Master! I am Kefka, God of Magic, and supreme ruler of all! You will all bow down to me or perish! Horribly, at that! [Laugh] Now, watch as I use magic to get rid of this awful, tasteless bracelet on my leg. [Another laugh as he wiggles his fingers at the device, expecting something to happen… finding that nothing does.

Now he’s really not happy. And he certainly is quick to show it.] Augh!! What is this trickery? Oh, I see, my magic doesn’t work here, does it? Well, fine, I have another brand of magic I can use to get myself out of here! Watch as I gnaw off my leg and free myself from these shackles! Do not fret, worthless meat bags, I am a God after all, so I will easily be able to regenerate. [There’s that whooping cackle again before the feed turns off.

…

Sometime later…

It turns on again, though instead this time it’s an audio only. There’s quite a bit of hollering on the other end.] FOOLS!!! No!!! I’m almost done; get your filthy, cold hands off of me you ingrates! How dare you touch me! I’m going to kill every one of you!!! And your family! AUGH! I can still taste skin on my teeth!!! [Shriek, laugh, and it cuts out.

If you dare, he’ll be in the medical ward, still restrained, and heavily guarded the next time a feed is open.]

[Josak hadn't been in the mood to socialize much, despite the fun he had at the baseball game yesterday. After his conversation with Conrad, and how close he became to saying thing he shouldn't, he decided he hadn't been his unobtrusive spy self enough lately.

So he avoided people after the game and is spending quality time in the education center, training himself how to use the computers after the lessons Joshua had been giving him. Practice makes perfect.]

[Sup everyone. In the video you see Hikaru holding up a pad of paper... or is it Kaoru?

Anyway, he's a little hesitant, but begins.]

The other day I told Princess Euphie that I would draw her a picture of Hunny-senpai's Usa-chan. So...

[Holds up this drawing. It would look way more amazing if Hikaru actually drew it because he's a really good artist BUT WHATEVER.]

That's what Usa-chan looks like.

I feel like going to the beach again.

[She's at the door to the elevator for the shelter, just watching the storm. She's a little wet and cold, but there's something about watching the lightning and listening to the thunder that's almost relaxing. It's nice something else is full of turmoil too even if it is an artificial sky.

Peter killed her...accidentally. Another her shows up and she's just... She's someone Kitty can't even imagine being, but there she is with the same face and name and powers. Oh, and she managed to make a spectacle of herself yesterday and even wake up in bed with Oliver. But, hey, at least there will be colored eggs soon. That's enough to make any little Jewish girl smile...

Not every memory was in clear focus from yesterday, but there was one that stood out.]

[Private]

Chuck? Are you around? [Already a little awkward. Good start.]

[Tsukasa wakes up slowly, blinking in confusion at the fact that he's actually in a bed. Cautiously, he sits up, clutching the blanket close to himself and peers around the room.]

--

[Tsukasa is out wandering in the rain, watching as it splashes onto the quickly darkening streets. He's mostly sticking close to the shelter, but if anyone wants to run into him as he wanders, they're more than welcome to.]

[[ooc; First part is closed to Rei, the second is open to everyone.]]

Days like today are good days for tea or hot cocoa, and a large bay window.

I've always enjoyed thunderstorms. Tends to remind us how powerful Mother Nature is.

... incidentally, there is a very large plate of lemon sugar cookies in the shelter kitchen. I certainly cannot manage to eat them all myself.

[Maybe drinking too much last night was a bad idea afterall, especially when you feel a new wave of emotions. Adrianna spent all day at her room, and knowing it was going to rain badly, she wasn't in the mood to go out as well.

But the fact that she yelled at Len made her feel worse. She did something stupid and wanted to apologize to him, but first things first: Ade had to get rid of this horrible headache. The girl was in the kitchen at the shelter, with a pack of aspirins in one hand, taking a glass from one of the cupboards with the other and finally pours some water from a jar inside the glass.

Opening the pack of aspirins, she takes two pills and gulps them in a rush, taking then a big sip of water. With the weather outside and stuff, it really wasn't a good day for her...]

Ah... What's this?

[a familiar synthesized voice, sounding very disoriented and confused]

...it's afternoon...? Ah-- I have to greet the criminals, I missed--

[there is a pause]

......"kidnapping"......

Ah.



((ooc: April Fool's! ...only, no, really))

[Ammy doesn't mind the rain or the thunder. She's quite happy to run around outside and splash through puddles like a puppy. She's very clearly enjoying herself here~

Eevee isn't as happy, but when Ammy's happy, she can't help but be either. So the two keep playing around, ignoring the lightning and thunder.

Feel free to join them! Or get accidentally splashed. Because it's not like Ammy wouldn't for kicks.

She's a goddess, really]

[The library isn't the ideal spot for their meetings, but it was one of the few places that had a desk to accommodate the stacks of papers Komui generated. Productivity, that's what it was! There were a few less today than usual, and he was blaming whoever messed up his caffeine supply and caused his persistent headache.]

[Komui is on his tenth cup of coffee today. It hasn't helped.]

[No time to worry about that now. The Exorcists and Gino should be here shortly -- with the exception of Lenalee, who was still safely in their room. He didn't expect the newly-arrived General Cross, either. Nevertheless, they had to figure something out to deal with the Noah.]
