Who: Wash + OPEN
When: Monday, mid-morning
Where: Battery Park
What: An overdue arrival
Rating/status: There may be some harsh words spoken.

A storm was movin' in. Big angry clouds rolling in over the city, sweeping harsh winds through the trees in Battery Park. Near the water's edge, a figure in a blue flight-suit sat slumped on a bench. Wind whipped at his hair, sending a few scattered leaves twirling around his feet.

As the first drops of rain fell, the unconscious figure on suddenly gasped for breath, dragging down oxygen like a drowning man breaking the surface. His hands grasped at the front of his flight suit, gathering handfuls of fabric over his stomach.

Finding nothing there, the man opened his eyes and looked down at himself. At first he didn't take in the change in setting, he was to concerned with the fact that he'd been sure something had hit him. He stared at his not-impaled body as raindrops started to fall on the back of his neck.

Rain on a space ship? He finally looked up and took in the span of the open park, its trees, its water, it's most definite not outer-spaceness.

"Wo bu shin wo dah yan jing," he muttered as he used the arm of the bench to push himself standing, "I've died and gone to..." He took in another sweep of the panorama "Ariel?"

	"Her husband," Wash replied simply, "she'll want to see me. Can't make it through her day without me, poor flower." At the other's question about Osiris, Wash grimaced. "Shiah hwa, no. Osiris is a bit rich for my blood. Really, I'm broke. The joo fuen chse of a rock I came from doesn't deserve a name. It's got one, but it's not important." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I see," Sebastian said, even though there were definitely some unfamiliar words in there. They sounded vaguely like things he'd heard Lau say, but the Chinese noble had a precision to his accent that this man didn't have.

Mere words aside, he lacked the context to make sense of most of it. But he still wasn't entirely sure the man was in the right state of mind, so he wasn't bothered by that.

"I assume you have a name, husband?"

	"Wash," he replied, "like something you do to a dirty window, but not." Wash was not a hand-shaking man. The Cap might do it out of politeness, but that's why he got the biggest share and got to wear the fancy coat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Sebastian bowed slightly, with the same gravity he'd use for a foreign dignitary. "Mister Wash. I have business I must attend elsewhere, but I wish you luck finding your way."

Or at least surviving without being mistaken for a mental patient, but that didn't seem worth mentioning out loud.

He had taken a few steps before he remembered to add, "Please keep the umbrella."

	Wash looked up at the umbrella in his hand. "Gee, thanks," he said, mostly to himself, as he turned away, "I'll be sure to ask it for directions about how to get around this crazy place." Well. This was going to be fun. (Reply to this) (Parent)
